High-Color-Purity Organic Light-Emitting Diodes Incorporating a Cyanocoumarin-Derived Red Dopant Material (2008)

This paper describes a red dopant material, the cyanocoumarin derivative 9-cyano-10-(2- benzothiazolyl)-1,1,7,7-tetramethyl-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro--benzo pyrano[6,7,8- ]quinolizin-11-one (RC545T), and its use in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Because RC545T exhibits (i) redshifted fluorescence and (ii) a narrower full width at half-maximum (fwhm; 48 nm) relative to the corresponding signal for 4-(dicyanomethylene)- 2-tert-butyl-6-(1,1,7,7-tetramethyljulolidyl-9-enyl)--pyran (DCJTB; ; ), which is currently one of the most efficient red dopant materials, we could fabricate red OLEDs exhibiting improved color purity. A device incorporating RC545T as a dopant and rubrene as an assistant dopant in the configuration indium–tin oxide (ITO)/-bis(1-naphthyl)- -diphenyl--biphenyl--diamine /tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum rubrene: RC545T exhibited a maximum luminance of at , with near-saturated CIE coordinates of (0.64, 0.35), significantly better red color purity than that of the device featuring DCJTB as the dopant material [CIE coordinates: (0.63, 0.37)], thereby rendering RC545T a good red-emitting dopant for OLED applications.
Efficient, Absorption‐Powered Artificial Muscles Based on Carbon Nanotube Hybrid Yarns (2015)

A new type of absorption-powered artificial muscle provides high performance without needing a temperature change. These muscles, comprising coiled carbon nanotube fibers infiltrated with silicone rubber, can contract up to 50% to generate up to 1.2 kJ kg(-1) . The drive mechanism for actuation is the rubber swelling during exposure to a nonpolar solvent. Theoretical energy efficiency conversion can be as high as 16%.
Material Classification Using Color and NIR Images (2009)

Material classification is becoming more important in computer vision and digital photography applications, which require accurate classification of objects present in the imaged scene. This is a very challenging task because the sheer diversity of scene content and lighting conditions decreases the usefulness of many color- and texture-based features used in image classification. In this work, we investigate the potential offered by using information outside of the visible spectrum, specifically the near-infrared (NIR). The difference in the NIR images' intensities is not just due to the particular color of the material, but also absorption and reflectance characteristics of the colorant. This relative independency of NIR and color information makes NIR images a prime candidate for classification. The database, on which the training and testing were conducted, consists of textile, tile, linoleum and wood samples. To classify the materials, visible and NIR images were analyzed according to their lightness, texture, and color. The analysis results were the input to a classifier in form of feature vectors. The results show that our database is classified almost exactly. Comparing with visible-only features, wood and textile samples were better classified due to the additional information the NIR images provide.
Cellular and Biochemical Characterization of the Anti-Inflammatory Effects of DuP 654 in the Arachidonic Acid Murine Skin Inflammation Model (Part 1 of 2) (1990)

The possible utility of DuP 654, a potent 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor, for treating human inflammatory skin disease was investigated in murine skin treated with 1.0 mg arachidonic acid (AA). When DuP 654 was applied to murine skin treated with AA, it inhibited the resulting inflammation and influx of cells. High performance liquid chromatography and radioimmunoassay analysis of lipid extracts from AA-treated ears indicated that the influx of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) was temporally preceded by an appearance of significant amounts of 5-HETE (6.7 +/- 1.4 ng/ear) and Leukotriene B4 LTB4 0.92 +/- 0.2 ng/ear) when compared with extracts of untreated ears (5-HETE, 02 +/- 0.3 ng/ear; LTB4, less than 0.1 ng/ear). The levels of the 5-lipoxygenase products were reduced by treatment with 10 micrograms/ear DUP 654. Lipid extracts from AA-treated ears contain chemotactic activity for human PMN and this chemotactic activity in the AA-treated ears could be reduced but not eliminated by immunosorption with anti-LTB4 antibodies coupled to protein A-agarose. The appearance of the chemotactic activity was inhibited by DuP 654. Taken together, these data suggest that DuP 654 may have utility in human inflammatory skin disease.
Multipoint barrier discharge process for removal of NO/sub x/ from diesel engine exhaust (2001)

We investigated the application of the dielectric barrier discharge process to the removal of NO/sub x/ from exhaust gas of a 20-kVA diesel engine generator. A multipoint-to-plane geometry was used as an electrode for low-voltage operation. A pyrex glass plate with a 2-mm thickness was put on the plane electrode as the dielectric barrier. The reactor consists of six discharge cells, with each cell consisting of five stacked multipoint-to-plane electrodes where the exhaust gas flows with a high flow rate. The exhaust gas was successfully treated at a flow rate of 1.2 m/sup 3//min, In order to produce repetitive high-voltage pulse, we made two switching electronic devices, an insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), and a pulse transformer. This pulse modulator supplied the voltage with peak value of 10 kV and repetition rate of 2.5 kp/s (pulses per second) to the reactor. The energy transfer efficiency of the pulse modulator is 65% at 300 W of the power consumed in the reactor, The NO/sub x/ (NO+NO/sub 2/) in the exhaust gas was reduced by 35 ppm with an electrical efficiency of 32 g/kWh.
Just in sequence delivery improvement based on Flexsim simulation experiment (2012)

Nowadays, automotive industry is focused at satisfying at maximum individual demands of the consumers. It is related with a wide range of offered products, which becomes a challenge for logistics. Limited space around an assembly line, necessity for assuring continuity of production, high costs of storing stock and storage space force people to use JIS delivery. This kind of delivery is a complex process, which depends on many factors such as tact time, quantity of parts in transport container, etc. It opens possibilities for using different kinds of technology, e.g. computer simulation. Present paper shows the example application of simulation in logistics process. The main problem to solve was the quantity of containers in sequencing delivery process of car windows. Article presents the problem definition, structure of build model, tool construction and some of the experiments which were made on the simulation model.
Exploiting task-level concurrency in a programmable network interface (2003)

Programmable network interfaces provide the potential to extend the functionality of network services but lead to instruction processing overheads when compared to application-specific network interfaces. This paper aims to offset those performance disadvantages by exploiting task-level concurrency in the workload to parallelize the network interface firmware for a programmable controller with two processors. By carefully partitioning the handler procedures that process various events related to the progress of a packet, the system can minimize sharing, achieve load balance, and efficiently utilize on-chip storage. Compared to the uniprocessor firmware released by the manufacturer, the parallelized network interface firmware increases throughput by 65% for bidirectional UDP traffic of maximum-sized packets, 157% for bidirectional UDP traffic of minimum-sized packets, and 32--107% for real network services. This parallelization results in performance within 10--20% of a modern ASIC-based network interface for real network services.
Nanostructured AgPb<i><sub>m</sub></i>SbTe<i><sub>m</sub></i><sub>+2</sub>System Bulk Materials with Enhanced Thermoelectric Performance (2008)

Nanostructured Ag0.8Pbm+xSbTem+2 (m = 18, x = 4.5) system thermoelectric materials have been fabricated by combining mechanical alloying (MA) and spark plasma sintering (SPS) methods followed by annealing for several days to investigate the effect on microstructure and thermoelectric performance. It was found that appropriate annealing treatment could reduce both the electrical resistivity and the thermal conductivity at the same time, consequently greatly enhancing the thermoelectric performance. A low electrical resistivity of 2 x 10-3 Ohm-cm and low thermal conductivity of 0.89 W m-1 K-1 were obtained for the sample annealed for 30 days at 700 K. The very low thermal conductivity is supposed to be due to the nanoscopic Ag/Sb-rich regions embedded in the matrix. A high ZT value of 1.5 at 700 K has been achieved for the sample annealed for 30 days.
Animal Models Used in Hepatitis C Virus Research (2020)

The narrow range of species permissive to infection by hepatitis C virus (HCV) presents a unique challenge to the development of useful animal models for studying HCV, as well as host immune responses and development of chronic infection and disease. Following earlier studies in chimpanzees, several unique approaches have been pursued to develop useful animal models for research while avoiding the important ethical concerns and costs inherent in research with chimpanzees. Genetically related hepatotropic viruses that infect animals are being used as surrogates for HCV in research studies; chimeras of these surrogate viruses harboring specific regions of the HCV genome are being developed to improve their utility for vaccine testing. Concurrently, genetically humanized mice are being developed and continually advanced using human factors known to be involved in virus entry and replication. Further, xenotransplantation of human hepatocytes into mice allows for the direct study of HCV infection in human liver tissue in a small animal model. The current advances in each of these approaches are discussed in the present review.
<i>Helicobacter pylori</i>Infection and Gastric Carcinoma among Japanese Americans in Hawaii (1991)

Infection with H. pylori is strongly associated with an increased risk of gastric carcinoma. However, most persons infected with H. pylori will never have gastric carcinoma. Therefore, other factors that increase the risk of gastric carcinoma among persons infected with H. pylori need to be identified.
NexRAN: Closed-loop RAN slicing in POWDER -A top-to-bottom open-source open-RAN use case. (2021)

Much like earlier network softwarization efforts, the Open RAN concept is poised to have a transformative impact on the manner in which radio access networks (RANs) are realized and operated. The inherent complexity of the RAN ecosystem and the fact that it is rapidly evolving makes Open RAN a rich area of research into use cases, system realization, security, and more. This same complexity, however, hampers research efforts. Specifically, there is a lack of end-to-end open source software and fully-developed use cases associated with the Open RAN ecosystem. Further, to truly advance the state of the art will require use cases to be explored in realistic wireless environments. This paper describes our efforts to address these shortcomings by realizing NexRAN, a top-to-bottom, open-source Open RAN use case in the POWDER mobile and wireless research platform. Specifically, NexRAN allows closed-loop control of a RAN slicing realization in an O-RAN ecosystem. RAN slicing is implemented in the srsRAN open source mobility stack and is exposed through a custom service model to the NexRAN xApp, which executes on a RAN intelligent controller (RIC) from the O-RAN Alliance. The NexRAN xApp realizes policy driven closed-loop control of RAN slices by reading the current state of RAN elements (using the O-RAN key performance measurements (KPM) service model) and controlling slice behavior via the custom slicing service model. We demonstrate and evaluate NexRAN in the POWDER platform and have open sourced all aspects of our realization to enable research into this domain.
Activity of TKI258 against primary cells and cell lines with FGFR1 fusion genes associated with the 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome (2007)

The 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome (EMS) is an aggressive, atypical stem cell myeloproliferative disorder associated with chromosome translocations that disrupt and constitutively activate FGFR1 by fusion to diverse partner genes. To explore the possibility of targeted therapy for EMS, we have investigated the use of TKI258, a multitargeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor with activity against FGFR, VEGFR, PDGFR, FLT3, and KIT that is currently being assessed for the treatment of a variety of malignancies in phase 1 clinical studies. The viability of Ba/F3 cells transformed to IL3 independence by ZNF198-FGFR1 or BCR-FGFR1 was specifically inhibited by TKI258 with IC(50) values of 150 nM and 90 nM, respectively. Inhibition was accompanied by dose-dependent inhibition of phosphorylation of each fusion gene, ERK, and STAT5. TKI258 also specifically inhibited proliferation and survival of the FGFR1OP2-FGFR1-positive KG1 and KG1A cell lines, resulting in increased levels of apoptosis. Primary cells from EMS patients showed significant, dose-dependent responses in liquid culture and in methylcellulose colony assays compared with controls. This work provides evidence that targeted therapy may be beneficial for patients with EMS.
Beta-Adrenergic Blocking Action of Ruthenium Red (1973)

During investigation on mechanisms of smooth muscle relaxation by drugs, ruthenium red (Cl2H23N7O2Ru2·3H2O), one of inorganic complex salts was found to be a specific beta-adrenergic blocker. The mode of action of ruthenium red on isolated organs was investigated herein. Three organs, taenia, atrium and tracheal muscle from the male guinea pig, were suspended in a 30 ml organ bath filled with Locke Ringer’s solution kept at 32°C. Locke Ringer’s solution used contained g of NaCl, 0.4 g of KC1, 0.2 g of CaCl2, 0.2 g of MgCl2, 0.5 g of NaHC03 and 0.5 g of glucose in a litre and was bubbled with air, but in the case of atrium it was gassed with a mixture of 95% 02 and 5% CO2. Except for atrium, whose tension was recorded isometrically, responses of taenia and trachea were recorded isotonically. Isoprenaline, phenylephrine and papaverine cumulatively relaxed the taenia as already reported by Takagi, Takayanagi and Tsuchida (1). Ruthenium red displaced the concentration action curve of isoprenaline in a parallel manner indicating a competitive inhibitory action and the pA2 value of ruthenium red was 5.57. Relaxing effects of papaverine and phenylephrine were, however, unaffected by ruthenium red. Positive inotropic effect of isoprenaline on atrium was also inhibited by ruthenium red competitively and it’s pA2 was 5.9. Tracheal muscle preparation was prepared by the method of Takagi, Takayanagi and Fujie (2). Also in this preparation ruthenium red shifted the concentration action curve of isoprenaline towards its high concentrations parallely and its pA2 value was 4.8. To determine whether or not the site of action of ruthenium red is the same as that of propranolol, one of typical beta-adrenergic blockers, synergism between ruthenium red and propranolol was examined on the tracheal muscle, whose response to a drug was constant. It is well known that both propranolol and pro-nethalol act on the same site, the beta-adrenergic receptor. In Fig. 1A, the concentration action curve A is for isoplenaline alone, curve B for isoprenaline with pronethalol (10–7 g/ml), curve C for isoprenaline with propranolol (10–7g/ml) and curve D for isoprenaline with pronethalol (10–7 g/ml) plus propranolol (10–7 g/ml). It can be seen from Fig. 1A that the distance between the curves C and D is much less than that between the curves A and B. Identity of receptor occupations PA0 and PABC is indisputably established when two responses are induced by an agonist alone (A0) and the agonist in the presence of two competitive antagonists B and C (ABC) are equal, therefore equations I and II are set equal and dose ratio ABC/A0 is given as equation II. Locality of curve D was calculated from equation III in the case of additive synergism between the competitive antagonists B and C.

An overview of selected diseases and drug needs in the llama and alpaca industries. (1998)

The North American llama and alpaca industries will probably continue to expand at a rate of 20-25% per year for at least the next one to two decades. As a result, while the total population will always be small relative to the cattle and swine industries, the total numbers of alpacas and llamas will be substantial. Accordingly, it is appropriate and timely to begin the process of getting drugs approved for usage in these species. Four drugs that warrant consideration for NRSP-7 evaluation and approval are: Ivermectin for the prevention of P. tenuis infections. Chlorsulon for the treatment of Fasciola hepatica infections. Ceftiofur sodium for the treatment of various bacterial infections. Omeprazole for the management and prevention of third compartment ulcers.
Investigation of Parameters that Affect the Success Rate of Microarray-Based Allele-Specific Hybridization Assays (2011)

Several assay development methods found suitable probes and assay conditions for a functional test for all investigated mutation sites. Probe length, probe spacer length, and assay stringency sufficed as variable parameters in the search for a functional multiplex assay. We discuss the optimal assay development methods for several different scenarios.
Hepatocyte growth factor has potent anti‐proliferative activity in various tumor cell lines (1991)

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) has potent mitogenic activity for mature hepatocytes and various normal epithelial cells. We now have evidence that HGF at 1-10 ng/ml, strongly inhibits the growth of HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma cells, B6/F1 melanoma cells and KB squamous carcinoma cells. These tumor cells express high affinity receptors for HGF with a Kd of 25-28 pM, similar to findings with hepatocytes. HGF at 1-100 ng/ml had no significant cytolytic effect on tumor cells. Therefore, the anti-proliferative effect of HGF on tumor cells seems to be cytostatic, not cytolytic. As HGF apparently has bidirectional effects on cell growth, the possibility that it can serve as an anti-tumor agent merits attention.
Office 365 Administration Guide Enterprise (2013)

In previous chapters we discussed how to move your business to Office 365. We spent a lot of time talking about the three different categories of Office 365 (e.g. Enterprise, Midsize and Professional) and pointed out that you should be looking at the Enterprise Suites as a solution. The main reason why we select the enterprise version is a simple one: you have the flexibility of deployment and your overall costs are reduced, compared with the other plan options.
An optimal planning of falling motions of a humanoid robot (2007)

This paper studies an optimal planning of falling motions of a human-sized humanoid robot to reduce the damage of the robot. We developed a human-sized robot HRP-2FX which has a simplified humanoid robot shape with seven d.o.f. and can emulate motions in the sagittal plane of a humanoid robot. An optimal control is applied to generate the falling motion of HRP-2FX to minimize a performance index, and the optimality has been verified by the experiments on HRP-2FX.
Laser wavelength stabilisation using fibre grating (1997)

The work presented describes the use of a Bragg fibre grating filter for the stabilisation of a semiconductor laser suitable for dense WDM (DWDM) systems. Two stabilisation techniques are studied. The first uses the peak of the reflected filter passband as the frequency reference point and the second the crossover frequency of the transmitted and reflected filter passbands. In order to access the suitability of the approach for DWDM a typical source wavelength budget has been used as the basis for the study where the channel spacing is assumed to be 200 GHz minimum (1.6 nm). With this channel spacing a total wavelength tolerance of /spl plusmn/0.26 nm is deemed sufficient to ensure system operation.
Radiation resistance and generation of pinning centers in composite HTSC under heavy ion irradiation (2013)

Abstract The effect of irradiation with heavy ions 40 Ar 8+ (48MeV), 132 Xe 27+ (167MeV) and 84 Kr 17+ (107 MeV) on the critical temperature ( T c ) and critical current ( I c ) of YBCO(123) composite tapes was investigated. It was found that threshold values were 5 × 10 12 and 1 × 10 13 ion/cm 2 for 132 Xe 27+ and 84 Kr 17+ irradiation, correspondently. Critical current measured at T = 77 K increased for the lower 40 Ar 8+ and 84 Kr 17+ fluencies compared to the initial values. The formation of radiation defects that could be effective pinning centers of Abrikosov vortices resulted in the increase of the critical current. The calculations of track diameters produced by 84 Kr 17+ ions with energy 1.2 MeV/amu in the composite YBCO tape showed the good agreement with the experimental ones. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution TEM and scanning TEM were used to study defects induced by irradiation. The diameter of defects obtained from TEM was in the range from 3 to 5 nm. (© 2013 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
