Linking Extractives to Black Liquor Corrosivity (2006)

Abstract In the pulp and paper industry, variability in the process and wood source may result in high corrosivity waste liquors, called black liquors. It is well documented that the concentration of organic extractives is wood species dependent and prior research has demonstrated corrosion rates of carbon steel in pulp mill equipment ranging from &lt;0.03 mm/yr to &gt;2.54 mm/yr, depending on wood species pulped. Our research demonstrates the importance of operational strategies for wood species, wood chip usage and delivery to downstream process corrosion. Some black liquor constituents have been identified to increase the corrosivity of black liquors whereas others may act as corrosion inhibitors. Results from this study show the importance of water soluble extractives in wood, such as long chain fatty acids, catechols, and others on the corrosivity of black liquor towards carbon steel 516-Gr70.
SOUPA: standard ontology for ubiquitous and pervasive applications (2004)

We describe a shared ontology called SOUPA - standard ontology for ubiquitous and pervasive applications. SOUPA is designed to model and support pervasive computing applications. This ontology is expressed using the Web ontology language OWL and includes modular component vocabularies to represent intelligent agents with associated beliefs, desires, and intentions, time, space, events, user profiles, actions, and policies for security and privacy. We discuss how SOUPA can be extended and used to support the applications of CoBrA, a broker-centric agent architecture for building smart meeting rooms, and MoGATU, a peer-to-peer data management for pervasive environments.

Motivated by recent electron microscopy studies on the ${\mathrm{Si}}_{3}{\mathrm{N}}_{4}∕\text{rare}\text{\ensuremath{-}}\text{earth}$ oxide interfaces, the atomic and electronic structures of bare $\ensuremath{\beta}\text{\ensuremath{-}}{\mathrm{Si}}_{3}{\mathrm{N}}_{4}$ surfaces are investigated from first principles. The equilibrium shape of a ${\mathrm{Si}}_{3}{\mathrm{N}}_{4}$ crystal is found to have a hexagonal cross section and a faceted domelike base in agreement with experimental observations. The large atomic relaxations on the prismatic planes are driven by the tendency of Si to saturate its dangling bonds, which gives rise to resonant-bond configurations or planar $s{p}^{2}$-type bonding. We predict three bare surfaces with lower energies than the open-ring $(10\overline{1}0)$ surface observed at the interface, which indicate that nonstoichiometry and the presence of the rare-earth oxide play crucial roles in determining the termination of the ${\mathrm{Si}}_{3}{\mathrm{N}}_{4}$ matrix grains.
Generation and Analysis of 10,443 ESTs from Cephalothorax of Fenneropenaeus Chinensis (2008)

Chinese shrimp, Fenneropenaeus chinensis (F. chinensis), is one of the main local mariculture species in China. To accelerate gene discovery, facilitate genetic mapping and develop marker-assisted selection, a total of 10,446 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were created from the 5' ends of randomly selected clones from a cephalothorax cDNA library of an adult female F. chinensis. The ESTs were clustered into 1399 contigs and 1720 singletons; represent about 3120 unique genes discovered. Among the discovered unique genes, 1373 EST clusters are known genes and 1747 EST clusters may represent novel genes, which do not match any known genes from other species. Known ESTs in the dataset were classified in to different molecular-function categories according to the KEGG-GO and the enzyme was the biggest category, which consist of 29.5% of known ESTs. The putative novel genes were characterized by motif search, and the functions of about 50% (786) of these genes were preliminarily determined. Among them, type I antifreeze protein was considered as the most redundant one. Besides the discovery of new genes through EST analysis, 324 (about 3%) perfect simple sequence repeats (SSRs) were found. This EST approach provides a foundation for the discovery of functional genes and furthermore gives great support for future microarray studies on gene expression.
Immunogenicity of the hydrophilic region of the MUC1 mucin protein core (1997)

This report is an analysis of data relating to the epitopes of 28 murine monoclonal antibodies reactive with the protein core of human carcinoma-associated MUC1 mucins. All anti-MUC1 antibodies define epitopes of linear sequences of 3, 4 or 5 amino acids within the hydrophilic domain, APDTRPAP, which is expressed multiple times in a highly conserved 20 amino acid repeat sequence of the MUC1 core. The R residue is present in the epitopes defined by all of the 28 anti-MUC1 monoclonal antibodies. Epitopes of antibodies originally prepared against immunogens containing human milk fat globule membranes include the motif DTR in over 90% of the examples studied.

The Modified Complementary Technique applied to the Mach 0.85 axisymmetric jet for noise prediction. (2007)

The Complementary Techniques 6 are modifled to estimate the most energetic turbulent features of a Mach 0.85, axisymmetric jet in the prominent sound-source regions of the ∞ow via Spectral Linear Stochastic Estimation. 11,28 This model estimate is three-dimensional, comprises all three components of the velocity fleld and is time resolved. The technique employs the pressure fleld as the unconditional input, that which is measured within the hydrodynamic periphery of the jet ∞ow where signatures (pressure) are known to comprise a reasonable footprint of the turbulent large-scale structure. Spectral estimation coe‐cients are derived from the joint second order statistics between coe‐cients that are representative of the low-order pressure fleld (Fourier-azimuthal) and of the low-order velocity fleld (POD). A bursting like event is manifest in the model estimate and is similar to what was found in the low-speed jet studies. 9 Lighthill’s analogy is efiected and a prediction of the far-fleld acoustics is performed. This work, thus constitutes a benchmark for developing dynamical system models from hydrodynamic pressure signatures for estimating and predicting the behavior of the deterministic energy containing events that govern many of the physical constituents in turbulent ∞ows.
Integration of low computational power nodes in a GRID measurement architecture (2007)

The increasing diffusion of environmental monitoring systems demands for more flexibility in the management of the whole system and in a lower cost for the arrangement of each measuring unit. Both these requirements can be met by arranging the whole system as a GRID architecture and employing units that are based on low-cost micro-controllers or palm PCs. However, such kind of units does not exhibit enough processing capabilities to met the full GRID requirements. For this reason, the authors propose a proxy-based approach that allows low-cost measuring units to be integrated into a GRID architecture, by introducing the concept of virtual measurement GRID node. Such a node is mainly composed of a measurement front-end that communicates with a proxy GRID node, which exhibits the full GRID services. An example of virtual measurement node is proposed that is conceived for pollution monitoring and a prototype of measurement node is described that senses temperature and concentration of carbon monoxide.
Combining Data Warehousing and Data Mining Techniques for Web Log Analysis (2007)

Enormous amounts of information about Web site user behavior are collected in Web server logs. However, this information is only useful if it can be queried and analyzed to provide high-level knowledge about user navigation patterns, a task that requires powerful techniques. This chapter presents a number of approaches that combine data warehousing and data mining techniques in order to analyze Web logs. After introducing the well-known click and session data warehouse (DW) schemas, the chapter presents the subsession schema, which allows fast queries on sequences of page visits. Then, the chapter presents the so-called “hybrid” technique, which combines DW Web log schemas with a data mining technique called Hypertext Probabilistic Grammars, hereby providing fast and flexible constraint-based Web log analysis. Finally, the chapter presents a “post-check enhanced” improvement of the hybrid technique.

Monoclonal antibody (IgM)specific to mouse lymphoma cells (L 1210): Isolation and therapeutic properties (1982)

Abstract Balb/C mice were immunized by injecting living L 1210 cells. Splenocytes from two mice which had a high serum anti L 1210 titer were fused with SP2-O-Ag myeloma cells. Hybridoma clones producing anti L 1210 antibodies were selected on the basis of cytolysis induced in the presence of rabbit complement. IgM monoclonal antibodies, obtained from ascitic supernatant, were purified by gel filtration chromatography. These antibodies were not cytotoxic per se , and did not induce cytolysis of L 1210 cells in the presence of autologous serum. IgM monoclonal antibodies were shown to protect BDF1 mice inoculated with L 1210 cells.

Polyethylene, water, lithium fluoride, aluminium, and sulfur targets have been irradiated with 1-GeV bremsstrahlung beams at the Frascati electron synchrotron and the yields of some spallation products from $^{27}\mathrm{Al}$ and $^{32}\mathrm{S}$ and of $^{11}\mathrm{C}$ and $^{7}\mathrm{Be}$ from $^{12}\mathrm{C}$, $^{16}\mathrm{O}$, $^{19}\mathrm{F}$, $^{27}\mathrm{Al}$, and $^{32}\mathrm{S}$ have been measured by the induced-activity and radiochemical methods. Evidence has been deduced for fragmentation from the mass-yield distribution of the photoproduced nuclides in $^{27}\mathrm{Al}$ and $^{32}\mathrm{S}$.
Reduced‐size polarized basis sets for calculations of molecular electric properties. I. The basis set generation (2004)

Following the recent studies of basis sets explicitly dependent on oscillatory external electric field we have investigated the possibility of some further truncation of the so-called polarized basis sets without any major deterioration of the computed data for molecular dipole moments, dipole polarizabilities, and related electric properties of molecules. It has been found that basis sets of contracted Gaussian functions of the form [3s1p] for H and [4s3p1d] for the first-row atoms can satisfy this requirement with particular choice of contractions in their polarization part. With m denoting the number of primitive GTOs in the contracted polarization function, the basis sets devised in this article will be referred to as the ZmPol sets. In comparison with earlier, medium-size polarized basis sets (PolX), these new ZmPol basis sets are reduced by 2/3 in their size and lead to the order of magnitude computing time savings for large molecules. Simultaneously, the dipole moment and polarizability data remain at almost the same level of accuracy as in the case of the PolX sets. Among a variety of possible applications in computational chemistry, the ZmPolX are also to be used for calculations of frequencies and intensities in the Raman spectra of large organic molecules (see Part II, this issue).
Src homology 2 domain-containing inositol-5-phosphatase 1 (SHIP1) negatively regulates TLR4-mediated LPS response primarily through a phosphatase activity- and PI-3K-independent mechanism (2005)

Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing inositol-5-phosphatase 1 (SHIP1) plays important roles in negatively regulating the activation of immune cells primarily via the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI-3K) pathway by catalyzing the PI-3K product PtdIns-3,4,5P3 (phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate) into PtdIns-3,4P2. However, the role of SHIP1 in Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-mediated lipopolysaccharide (LPS) response remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that SHIP1 negatively regulates LPS-induced inflammatory response via both phosphatase activity-dependent and -independent mechanisms in macrophages. SHIP1 becomes tyrosine phosphorylated and up-regulated upon LPS stimulation in RAW264.7 macrophages. SHIP1-specific RNA-interfering and SHIP1 overexpression experiments demonstrate that SHIP1 inhibits LPS-induced tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) production by negatively regulating the LPS-induced combination between TLR4 and myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88); activation of Ras (p21(ras) protein), PI-3K, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), p38, and c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK); and degradation of IkappaB-alpha. SHIP1 also significantly inhibits LPS-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation in TLR4-reconstitited COS7 cells. Although SHIP1-mediated inhibition of PI-3K is dependent on its phosphatase activity, phosphatase activity-disrupted mutant SHIP1 remains inhibitory to LPS-induced TNF-alpha production. Neither disrupting phosphatase activity nor using the PI-3K pathway inhibitor LY294002 or wortmannin could significantly block SHIP1-mediated inhibition of LPS-induced ERK1/2, p38, and JNK activation and TNF-alpha production, demonstrating that SHIP1 inhibits LPS-induced activation of MAPKs and cytokine production primarily by a phosphatase activity- and PI-3K-independent mechanism.

Optimization of Material Symmetry (2005)

Pointwise optimization of the material symmetry of an anisotropic elastic material with respect to fixed and specified stress (or strain) states is accomplished. The conceptual variables in this problem are the type of material symmetry and the orientation of the canonical symmetry axis for the material at a point in the material. The actual variables are the coefficients of the elasticity (or compliance) matrix. The results are presented in the form of the elasticity (or compliance) matrices that minimize the strain energy with respect to specified, but arbitrary, stress (or strain) states.

Flexor-Tendon Injuries of the Fingers and Thumb (1958)

Graphic comparison indicates that the results of grafts within the flexor tunnel are distinctly better than those of primary repair. The relatively poor results of primary repair would seem to indicate that grafting procedures might be preferable in the treatment of injuries within the flexor tunnel. However, the results of primary repair outside the flexor tunnel and of the flexor pollicis longus are markedly better than those within the tunnel. The shorter period of disability following primary repair would seem to justify the continued handling of those injuries outside the flexor tunnel and of the thumb in this manner. Grafting remains available for the severely traumatized wound, or to correct the poor result.
Application of waste phosphogypsum in thermoplastic and chemosetting composites (2004)

Application of thermally treated phosphogypsum as a filler for thermoplastic polymers such as low density polyethylene, polypropylene, polyamide 6 and PVC as well as for chemically cured composites based on epoxy or polyester resins has been investigated. Phosphogypsum used was a by-product from phosphorous fertilizers' industry (Table 1), and was treated by method elaborated in Poland. Amounts of phosphogypsum were in the range of 10-50 wt. % in PE-LD, PP or PA 6, 97.5-205 phr in PVC (Table 2) and 30-50 wt. % in chemically cured composites (Table 3 and 4). Phosphogypsum as filler causes similar changes of mechanical properties as another mineral fillers. Filled thermoplastic composites were tested with the aim to substitute talc or chalk with treated phosphogypsum (Table 8, Figs. 3-6). Effect of silanes as compatibilizers for thermoplastic composites was investigated, too. Composites polypropylene/phosphogypsum were used for preparation of automotive fittings instead of polypropylene/talc ones (Fig. 10). PVC compositions with treated phosphogypsum were used for preparation of flooring (Fig. 11). Chemically cured composites with treated phosphogypsum were used for preparation of self-leveling flooring.

Multiplexed Detection of Epigenetic Markers Using Quantum Dot (QD)-Encoded Hydrogel Microparticles (2016)

Epigenetic alterations in gene expression are influenced by experiences and environment, resulting in significant variation of epigenetic markers from individual to individual. Therefore, it is imperative to measure various epigenetic markers simultaneously from samples of individual subjects to accurately analyze the epigenetic markers in biological samples. Moreover, the individualized genome-wide analysis has become a critical technology for recent trends in clinical applications such as early diagnosis and personalized medicine screening of numerous diseases. The array-based detection of modified histones, conventionally used for multiplexed analysis of epigenetic changes, requires pooling of samples from many subjects to analyze population-wise differences in the expression of histone markers and does not permit individualized analysis. Here, we report multiplexed detection of genome-wide changes in various histone modifications at a single-residue resolution using quantum dot (QD)-encoded polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA) hydrogel microparticles. To demonstrate the potential of our methodology, we present the simultaneous detection of (1) acetylation of lysine 9 of histone 3 (Ac-H3K9), (2) dimethylation of H3K9 (2Me-H3K9), and (3) trimethylation of H3K9 (3Me-H3K9) from three distinct regions in the brain [nucleus accumbens (NAc), dorsal striatum (DSt), and cerebellum (Cbl)] of cocaine-exposed mice. Our hydrogel-based epigenetic assay enabled relative quantification of the three histone variants from only 10 μL of each brain lysate (protein content = ∼ 1 μg/μL) per mouse. We verified that the exposure to cocaine induced a significant increase of acetylation while a notable decrease in methylation in NAc.
Analysis of Double-Stranded RNA and Small RNAs Involved in RNA-Mediated Transcriptional Gene Silencing (2005)

RNA-mediated gene silencing is triggered by double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) that are processed to short RNAs approx 21–25 nucleotides in length. The short RNAs act as guides for enzyme complexes that degrade, modify, or inhibit the function of homologous target nucleic acids. There are three general types of RNA-mediated silencing: (1) RNA interference (RNAi) and the related processes of posttranscriptional gene silencing in plants and quelling in Neurospora crassa, which involve sequence-specific mRNA degradation; (2) microRNA-guided repression of translation; and (3) RNA-directed epigenetic modifications of the genome, such as DNA cytosine (C) methylation and histone methylation (1). This chapter focuses on a specific aspect of the third type of silencing: RNA-directed promoter methylation and transcriptional gene silencing (TGS).
A comparison study: Direct wafer bonding of SiC–SiC by standard surface-activated bonding and modified surface-activated bonding with Si-containing Ar ion beam (2016)

Abstract In this study, the results of direct wafer bonding of SiC–SiC at room temperature by standard surface-activated bonding (SAB) and modified SAB with a Si-containing Ar ion beam were compared, in terms of bonding energy, interface structure and composition, and the effects of rapid thermal annealing (RTA) at 1273 K in Ar gas. Compared with that obtained by the standard SAB, the bonding interface obtained by the modified SAB with a Si-containing Ar ion beam is ∼30% stronger and almost completely recrystallized without oxidation during RTA, which should be due to the in situ Si compensation during surface activation by the Si-containing Ar ion beam.
