Regulation of CD44 in the Regenerating Mouse Facial Motor Nucleus (1997)

CD44 is a cell adhesion molecule which plays an important role in cell movement and adhesion, e.g. in lymphocyte homing and tumour metastasis. Here we studied the expression of CD44 mRNA and protein immunoreactivity in the facial nucleus after nerve injury and during the ensuing regeneration. Transection of the facial nerve led to a strong up-regulation of CD44, peaking 4 days after injury on the motoneurons of the axotomized facial nucleus. Use of the polymerase chain reaction confirmed the de novo expression of CD44 and detected only the standard haematopoietic CD44 isoform. Western blotting also detected the 76 kDa protein subtype, in line with the predicted size of the haematopoietic CD44 variant. At the ultrastructural level, CD44 immunoreactivity was restricted to the surface of the neuronal perikarya, their dendrites and axons. It was not seen in the adjacent activated astrocytes, microglia or vascular endothelia. This study shows strong up-regulation of the cell adhesion molecule CD44 on the regenerating motoneurons in the axotomized facial nucleus. These data suggest that CD44 may play a role in neurite outgrowth, in synaptic stripping or in the adhesion of activated glial cells to the perikaryal surface of the axotomized motoneurons.
Molecular characterization of <i>TUB, TULP1</i> , and <i>TULP</i> 2, members of the novel tubby gene family and their possible relation to ocular diseases (1997)

Tubby, an autosomal recessive mutation, mapping to mouse chromosome 7, was recently found to be the result of a splicing defect in a novel gene with unknown function. Database searches revealed that sequences corresponding to the C terminus of the tub protein were highly conserved across a number of species including humans, mice, Caenorhabditis elegans, Arabidopsis, rice, and maize, and that tub was a member of a gene family. We describe here, TUB, the human homolog of mouse tub, and two newly characterized family members, TULP1 for tubby like protein 1 and TULP2. These three family members, which differ in the N-terminal half of the protein, share 60-90% amino acid identity across their conserved C-terminal region and have distinct tissue expression patterns. Alternatively spliced transcripts with 5' variable sequences, three of which have been identified for the tubby gene, may mediate tissue specific expression. We also report that TUB, TULP1, and TULP2 map to human chromosomes 11p15.4, 6p21.3, and 19q13.1, respectively. TULP1 and TULP2 map within the minimal intervals identified for retinitis pigmentosa 14 on chromosome 6p21.3 and cone-rod dystrophy on chromosome 19q13.1. TULP1 and TULP2, which are expressed in the retina, make excellent candidates for these ocular diseases as a mutation within the tub gene is known to lead to early progressive retinal degeneration.
Improved performance of the ATA injector (1985)

During the last year we re-configured the ATA injector to accommodate field emission cathodes. The injector is now run as a diode machine with a 7 cm radius cathode, an A-K gap of 12.9 cm and a field stress of 190 kV/cm. The advantage of using field emission cathodes is we have increased the injector brightness by a factor of ten above the level we were able to reach using the low density plasma cathodes.
Development of the zinc/bromine battery at Johnson Controls Inc (2003)

The development of a zinc/bromine battery system which combines attractive energy density and a potential for long cycle life at low cost is presented. The battery uses an all-plastic construction that includes carbon-filled polyethylene electrodes. Complexation of bromine lowers its reactivity, thereby minimizing self-discharge and corrosion problems. A 50 kWh zinc/bromine battery designed for testing in a Ford Aerostar minivan is described, and test results are presented. Test results from its use as a 20 kWh load management battery are also presented. A third potential application of the system, as a high-power reserve-type battery, is discussed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>

Three-level frame and RD-schematic algorithm for automatic detection of individual trees from MLS point clouds (2011)

Abstract This article presents a three-level frame and a novel algorithm, which is based on a searching schematic analogous to a revolving door (RD), for automatic detection of individual trees from the point clouds acquired by mobile laser scanning (MLS). As a state-of-the-art technology, MLS in collecting the structural information of single trees is different from airborne laser scanners and terrestrial laser scanners in terms of sampling density, view angle and flexibility. To improve the efficiency and accuracy during extraction of trees, the three-level frame and the RD-schematic algorithm are proposed to fully employ the morphological characteristics of canopy surface models from coarse to fine resolutions. Methods of radius thresholding and symmetry judgement are also combined to remove disturbing objects, for example buildings and poles. Experiments based on the real-surveyed point clouds measured by the Sensei MLS system basically validate the proposed work, and the attributions introduced in this article serve as the fundamental procedures for further tree-relevant applications in regard to MLS.

Simulations of DT experiments in TFTR (1991)

A transport code (TRANSP) is used to simulate future deuterium-tritium experiments (DT) in TFTR. The simulations are derived from 14 TFTR DD discharges, and the modeling of one supershot is discussed in detail to indicate the degree of accuracy of the TRANSP modeling. Fusion energy yields and {alpha}-particle parameters are calculated, including profiles of the {alpha} slowing down time, average energy, and of the Alfven speed and frequency. Two types of simulations are discussed. The main emphasis is on the DT equivalent, where an equal mix of D and T is substituted for the D in the initial target plasma, and for the D{sup O} in the neutral-beam injection, but the other measured beam and plasma parameters are unchanged. This simulation does not assume that {alpha} heating will enhance the plasma parameters, or that confinement will increase with T. The maximum relative fusion yield calculated for these simulations is Q{sub DT} {approx} 0.3, and the maximum {alpha} contribution to the central toroidal {beta} is {beta}{sub {alpha}}(0) {approx} 0.5%. The stability of toroidicity-induced Alfven eigenmodes (TAE) and kinetic ballooning modes (KBM) is discussed. The TAE mode is predicted to become unstable for some of the equivalent simulations, particularly after the termination of neutral beam injection. In the second type of simulation, empirical supershot scaling relations are used to project the performance at the maximum expected beam power. The MHD stability of the simulations is discussed.

Demonstration of Fidelity Improvement Using Dynamical Decoupling with Superconducting Qubits (2018)

Quantum computers must be able to function in the presence of decoherence. The simplest strategy for decoherence reduction is dynamical decoupling (DD), which requires no encoding overhead and works by converting quantum gates into decoupling pulses. Here, using the IBM and Rigetti platforms, we demonstrate that the DD method is suitable for implementation in today's relatively noisy and small-scale cloud-based quantum computers. Using DD, we achieve substantial fidelity gains relative to unprotected, free evolution of individual superconducting transmon qubits. To a lesser degree, DD is also capable of protecting entangled two-qubit states. We show that dephasing and spontaneous emission errors are dominant in these systems, and that different DD sequences are capable of mitigating both effects. Unlike previous work demonstrating the use of quantum error correcting codes on the same platforms, we make no use of postselection and hence report unconditional fidelity improvements against natural decoherence.
Application of a Batch Hindered-Settling Model to Dense-Medium Separations (1994)

Abstract Dense-medium separations were analyzed using a batch hindered-settling model. This model can predict the size/density distribution of settling particles at any point along a column. The separations were analyzed by treating the particles above a cut height as the product and the particles below this height as the refuse. This allowed fractional recovery curves to be generated for a wide range of simulation conditions. For this study, the variables examined included the size/density distribution of the coal, the solids concentration of the feed stream, the retention time of the particles, the cut height, the magnitude of the g force, and the size distribution of the magnetite. It was found that the separations were affected by the density gradient of the magnetite along the column, and as such, the results were often much different than those predicted by a batch free-settling model. The results from this study are presented in this paper.
Studies on 1,3-benzoxazines. I. Synthesis of primary 2-amino-pyridines via the reaction of imidoyl chlorides of 1,3-benzoxazines with pyridine N-oxides. (1980)

A new synthetic method for primary 2-aminopyridine derivatives is described. Treatment of the imidoyl chlorides of 1, 3-benzoxazines (1a-i) with pyridine N-oxides resulted in the introduction of an oxazine moiety into the α-position of the pyridine ring through rearrangement of the initially formed reaction adduct. Acid hydrolysis of the rearrangement products afforded 2-aminopyridine derivatives in excellent yields. When methoxypyridine N-oxides were used, products of a different type (10 and 14) were obtained.
Chemical Analysis of Graphite/Electrolyte Interface Formed in LiBOB-Based Electrolytes (2003)

To understand the source of thermal stability of LiBOB-based electrolyte in lithium-ion cells as well as its unique ability to stabilize graphitic anodes even in the strongly exfoliating solvent propylene carbonate (PC), the solid electrolyte interface on graphite formed by LiBOB-based electrolyte was investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Preliminary results show that, due to the BOB anion presence, the content of semicarbonate-like components in the graphite/electrolyte interface increases significantly, as indicated by the conspicuous peak located at 289 eV. These components, believed to originate from the oxalato moiety of the anion, are mainly responsible for the protection of graphitic anodes, either at elevated temperatures or in the presence of PC. © 2003 The Electrochemical Society.

Rate-based congestion control for ATM networks (1995)

Congestion control plays an important role in the effective and stable operation of ATM networks. This paper first gives a historical overview of rate-based congestion control algorithms developed in the ATM Forum, showing how the current ATM Forum standard regarding the traffic management control methods is exploited, by these algorithm. Then, analytical approach is used to quantitatively evaluate their performance and show the effectiveness of the rate-based approach. In presenting the numerical examples, we emphasize that appropriate control parameter settings are essential for proper traffic management in an ATM network environment.
Room-Temperature Optically Pumped (Al)GaSb Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser Monolithically Grown on an Si(1 0 0) Substrate (2006)

We report a monolithic vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) on an Si(0 0 1) substrate operating under room-temperature optically pumped conditions. The GaSb multi-quantum well active region in an Al(Ga)Sb half-wave cavity spacer layer is embedded in AlSb/AlGaSb distributed Bragg reflectors. The 13% lattice mismatch is accommodated by a self-assembled two-dimensional array of 90deg interfacial misfit dislocations resulting in spontaneously relaxed (~98%) and very low defect density (~10 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">6</sup> /cm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> ) epilayers.

SCREAM’03: A Single Mask Process for High-Q Single Crystal Silicon MEMS (2004)

We present a single-mask single-crystal silicon (SCS) process for the fabrication of suspended MicroElectroMechanical devices (MEMS). This is a bulk micro-machining process that uses Deep Reactive Ion Etch (DeepRIE) of a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate with highly doped device layer to fabricate movable single-crystal silicon MEMS structures, which can be electrically actuated without metal deposition. The buried oxide layer is not removed afterwards and no wet process release is involved in the whole process sequence, which makes this process different from others works based on SOI wafer. Several MEMS oscillators have been made using this process. Dynamic behavior is characterized using a laser vibrometer. Quality factor is improved by more than 1 order compared to the same oscillator made using SCREAM process.
Atomic force microscopy observation of native neurons and modifications induced by glutamate (1996)

We used an atomic force microscope, in the repulsive regime of contact mode, to take images of uncoated neurons fixed in glutaraldehyde on a gold covered stainless steel substrate. We observed granule cells and their axons with a resolution better than 20 nm. The good stability of the sample and the mechanical reproducibility of the microscope allowed the imaging of a neuron culture area of several square microns. Modifications induced by glutamate on the neuronal culture resulted in observing a drastic reduction in cell granule height (from 1.5–2.0 μm for the unperturbed ones down to 0.7–1.0 μm) and in an increased corrugation of the surface membrane. The atomic force microscope images were very reproducible over repeated scanning acquisition, demonstrating a very good mechanical and thermal stability of the instrument-sample system.

Zusammenfassung (1958)

Zusammenfassend kann man feststellen: Die Untersuchungen an Heizkissen in verschiedenen Prüfschaltungen und an Versuchspersonen zeigen, daß die bisher in Mitteleuropa üblichen Heizkissen den Anforderungen auf thermische Sicherheit genügen und auch dem Benutzer die Möglichkeit bieten, sich die von ihm gewünschten Temperaturen einstellen zu können. Dabei erreichen die Heizkissenwerkstoffe keine Temperatur, die eine vorzeitige Alterung zur Folge haben würden.
Breathability Characterization of Ballistic Fabrics, Including Shear Thickening Fluid-Treated Fabrics (2008)

Abstract : The breathability of a series of ballistic fabrics and shear thickening fluid (STF)-treated ballistic fabrics was evaluated. Breathability was characterized using measurements of water vapor transport rate through fabric samples. The results show that uncoated ballistic fabrics offer good breathability that is only slightly lower than conventional military outer garments. Ballistic fabrics treated with STF show a slight decrease in breathability, as compared with uncoated fabrics. Ballistic fabrics with continuous polymer coatings, however, exhibit very low water vapor transport rates. These results indicate that fabrics treated with STF introduce no significant penalty in breathability relative to conventional, uncoated ballistic fabrics.
The effect of prior upper body exercise on subsequent wingate performance (2014)

It has been reported previously that the upper body musculature is continually active during high intensity cycle ergometry. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of prior upper body exercise on subsequent Wingate (WAnT) performance. Eleven recreationally active males (20.8 ± 2.2 yrs; 77.7 ± 12.0 kg; 1.79 ± 0.04 m) completed two trials in a randomised order. In one trial participants completed 2×30 s WAnT tests (WAnT1 and WAnT2) with a 6 min recovery period; in the other trial, this protocol was preceded with 4 sets of biceps curls to induce localised arm fatigue. Prior upper body exercise was found to have a statistically significant detrimental effect on peak power output (PPO) during WAnT1 (P<0.05) but no effect was observed for mean power output (MPO) (P>0.05). Handgrip (HG) strength was also found to be significantly lower following the upper body exercise. These results demonstrate that the upper body is meaningfully involved in the generation of leg power during intense cycling.
Erythrocytic protein kinase C activity in primary hypertension (1998)

The amount of protein kinase C, measured as the activity at optimal assay conditions, in erythrocytes from patients with primary hypertension is not critical for the development of moderate hypertension.
Approaches to high performance SITL (1979)

In order to improve speed performance, the normally configured bipolar mode SIT (BSIT) is introduced to SITL with a new circuit configuration where output Schottky diodes are fabricated to ensure the decoupling between multiple outputs.. The performance of this Schottky SITL is evaluated in the ring oscillator having three fanouts for each state, where the propagation decay is obtained as 2.5 ns with a power dissipation of 100 /spl mu/W.
Microbiological Activities of Iodoorotic Acid and Iodouridine. (1954)

1. 5-Iodoorotic acid and 5-iodouridine per se are not utilizable for the growth of S. faecalis or L. casei, while in media supplemented with thymine, thymidine or pteroylglutamic acid, the growth of these organisms is not inhibited by iodoorotic acid or iodouridine. 2. Although 5-iodoorotic acid appeared to support the maximal growth of L. bulgaricus 09, evidence was presented that this was attributable to the release of orotic acid from the iodinated derivative. 3. High concentrations of 5-iodoorotic acid inhibited the growth of L. bulgaricus 09, but this could not be reversed by orotic acid. This inhibition was attributed to the formation of iodide ion, since potassium iodide in similar concentrations produced a comparable inhibitory effect on the microorganism.
Hybrid composites of oil palm empty fruit bunches/woven jute fiber: chemical resistance, physical, and impact properties (2011)

Natural fiber-based hybrid composites with oil palm empty fruit bunches (EFB) and woven jute (J w ) fibers were prepared by hand lay-up method. Epoxy resin was used as matrix and tri-layer hybrid composites of EFB/ woven jute /EFB and woven jute /EFB/ woven jute were prepared by keeping the EFB/ woven jute fiber weight ratio constant at 4:1. The chemical resistance properties of the EFB/ woven jute/EFB and woven jute /EFB/ woven jute fiber-reinforced hybrid composites were studied by using three acids, three alkalies, and three solvents. It was found from the chemical resistance test that all the composites are resistance to various chemicals. It was observed that marked reduction in void content of composites with hybridization of oil palm EFB with woven jute fiber. Density and moisture content study demonstrated that density and moisture content property was enhanced in hybrid composites. The hybrid composites showed lower impact properties than pure EFB composite. Izod impact strength of EFB/woven jute/EFB and woven jute/EFB/woven jute hybrid was found to be 72.4 and 57.9 J/m, respectively. Impact fracture surface of the composites was studied with the help of scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
Biosynthesis of the Shikimate-derived Starter Unit of the Immunosuppressant Ascomycin: Stereochemistry of the 1,4-Conjugate Elimination. (1997)
