A novel product concatenated scheme for OvCDM (2009)

A novel product concatenated scheme for OvCDM is proposed, characterized in that one or more OvCDM codes are as component codes in product concatenated OvCDM. The product concatenated OvCDM system is to make up a product concatenated code with higher spectrum efficiency. The product concatenated OvCDM uses iteratively decoding algorithm based on LOG-MAP algorithm. Comparing with un-concatenated OvCDM, the performance of product concatenated OvCDM is closer to the Shannon limit.
Dipolar chains and 2D aligned stripes of polymer‐coated magnetic iron colloid (2006)

Abstract Studies on the self‐assembly of core–shell magnetic nanospheres under or without an external magnetic field are the subject of intense research. It is believed that after being coated by organic molecules, the magnetic nanoparticles can still have chance to form chain‐like structure driven by the dipole–dipole interactions while the coated shell minimizes the effect of Van der Waals attractions. However, still there are no direct experimental observations for polymer‐modified magnetic colloids sized hundreds of nanometers. In this article, PEG‐ and PSt‐coated Fe 2 O 3 nanospheres were synthesized and their self‐assembly behaviors were studied. MFM and TEM measurements reveal that the prepared spheres owning a core–shell structure. Under zero magnetic field, a direct observation of chain‐like structure was achieved for the PEG‐coated magnetic colloids. For the PSt‐modified magnetic spheres, there formed a 2D aligned stripes pattern at the surface of mica when the suspending of sample was dried under an external magnetic field. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Direct observation of enhanced cathodoluminescence emissions from ZnO nanocones compared with ZnO nanowire arrays (2011)

We report, for the first time, direct observation of enhanced cathodoluminescence (CL) emissions from ZnO nanocones (NCs) compared with ZnO nanowires (NWs). For direct and unambiguous comparison of CL emissions from NWs and nanocones, periodic arrays of ZnO NW were converted to nanocone arrays by our unique HCl [aq] etching technique, enabling us to compare the CL emissions from original NWs and final nanocones at the same location. CL measurements on NW and nanocone arrays reveal that emission intensity of the nanocone at ∼ 387 nm is over two times larger than that of NW arrays. The enhancement of CL emission from nanocones has been confirmed by finite-difference time-domain simulation of enhanced light extraction from ZnO nanocones compared to ZnO NWs. The enhanced CL from nanocones is attributed to its sharp morphology, resulting in more chances of photons to be extracted at the interface between ZnO and air.
The Clinical Use and Measurement of Theophylline (1988)

This report reviews the clinical use, metabolism and toxicity of theophylline (Section 1). Current chromatographic and immunoassay methods for theophylline measurement are discussed and practical methods using high-performance liquid chromatography are described (Section 2). Results from the UK National scheme for theophylline quality control and from an experiment to investigate the degree of interference by 1,7-dimethylxanthine in routine assays for theophylline are discussed in Section 3.
Enriching Facial Blendshape Rigs with Physical Simulation (2017)

Oftentimes facial animation is created separately from overall body motion. Since convincing facial animation is challenging enough in itself, artists tend to create and edit the face motion in isolation. Or if the face animation is derived from motion capture, this is typically performed in a mo-cap booth while sitting relatively still. In either case, recombining the isolated face animation with body and head motion is non-trivial and often results in an uncanny result if the body dynamics are not properly reflected on the face (e.g. the bouncing of facial tissue when running). We tackle this problem by introducing a simple and intuitive system that allows to add physics to facial blendshape animation. Unlike previous methods that try to add physics to face rigs, our method preserves the original facial animation as closely as possible. To this end, we present a novel simulation framework that uses the original animation as per-frame rest-poses without adding spurious forces. As a result, in the absence of any external forces or rigid head motion, the facial performance will exactly match the artist-created blendshape animation. In addition we propose the concept of blendmaterials to give artists an intuitive means to account for changing material properties due to muscle activation. This system allows to automatically combine facial animation and head motion such that they are consistent, while preserving the original animation as closely as possible. The system is easy to use and readily integrates with existing animation pipelines.
Crystal Growth of the Metal—Organic Framework Cu<sub>3</sub>(BTC)<sub>2</sub> on the Surface of Pulp Fibers (2009)

In situ growth of highly porous metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) in the presence of pulp fibers results in high surface area MOF/textile composites. Such a carrier concept is indispensable for any industrial application of MOFs.
Cloning and expression of two brain-specific inwardly rectifying potassium channels. (1995)

We have cloned two inwardly rectifying K+ channels that occur selectively in neurons in the brain and are designated BIRK (brain inwardly rectifying K+) channels. BIRK1 mRNA is extremely abundant and is enriched in specific brainstem nuclei, BIRK1 displays a consensus phosphate-binding loop, and expression in Xenopus oocytes has shown that its conductance is inhibited by ATP and adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate. BIRK2 is far less abundant and is selectively localized in telencephalic neurons. BIRK2 has a consensus sequence for cAMP-dependent phosphorylation.

The synthesis and antiviral properties of E-5-(2-bromovinyl)-4′-thio-2′-deoxyuridine (1991)

A practical 7 step synthesis of benzyl 3,5-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-1,4-dithio-D-erythro-pentofuranoside from 2-deoxy-D-ribose is described and the product has been used in the synthesis of some 4′-thio-2′-deoxynucleosides which have potentially useful biological activity.
Functional Analysis of the<i>Bacillus subtilis</i>Zur Regulon (2002)

The Bacillus subtilis zinc uptake repressor (Zur) regulates genes involved in zinc uptake. We have used DNA microarrays to identify genes that are derepressed in a zur mutant. In addition to members of the two previously identified Zur-regulated operons (yciC and ycdHI-yceA), we identified two other genes, yciA and yciB, as targets of Zur regulation. Electrophoretic mobility shift experiments demonstrated that all three operons are direct targets of Zur regulation. Zur binds to an approximately 28-bp operator upstream of the yciA gene, as judged by DNase I footprinting, and similar operator sites are found preceding each of the previously described target operons, yciC and ycdHI-yceA. Analysis of a yciA-lacZ fusion indicates that this operon is induced under zinc starvation conditions and derepressed in the zur mutant. Phenotypic analyses suggest that the YciA, YciB, and YciC proteins may function as part of the same Zn(II) transport pathway. Mutation of yciA or yciC, singly or in combination, had little effect on growth of the wild-type strain but significantly impaired the growth of the ycdH mutant under conditions of zinc limitation. Since the YciA, YciB, and YciC proteins are not obviously related to any known transporter family, they may define a new class of metal ion uptake system. Mutant strains lacking all three identified zinc uptake systems (yciABC, ycdHI-yceA, and zosA) are dependent on micromolar levels of added zinc for optimal growth.
On Comparison† (2003)

This chapter deals with the question of the ‘unique’. The ‘unique’ is an attribute that must be disposed of, especially when linked to some notion of incomparable value, if progress in thinking through the enterprise of comparison is to be made. The most frequent use of the terminology of the ‘unique’ in studying religion is in relation to Christianity; its most frequent within Christianity is in relation to the so-called ‘Christ-event’. The uniqueness of the ‘Christ-event’, which usually encodes the death and resurrection of Jesus, is a double claim. On the ontological level, it is a statement of the absolutely alien nature of the divine protagonist (monogenes) and the unprecedented (and paradoxical) character of his self-disclosure; on the historical level, it is an assertion of the radical incomparability of the Christian ‘proclamation’ with respect to the ‘environment’.
Feeding a World Population of More Than Eight Billion People: A Challenge to Science (1998)

Since the 1960s the steadily increasing availability of food, arising from the application of new agricultural science, has exceeded the demands created by the growth in size of the human population of the world. However, the 1990 world population of 5.5 billion is projected to grow to 10 billion by 2050. Can the future demand for food be satisfied? This question is particularly difficult given that even in 1990 1.1 billion people in developing countries were living in poverty and more than 500 million in extreme poverty. This book, based on the proceedings of the 10th International Symposium sponsored by the Nutrition Committee and the Trustees of the Rank Prize Funds, in 1996, addresses the question of how to feed the projected population a generation from now and discusses the challenges this presents. The topics covered include land and crop nutrients and sustainability, natural resource management, water usage, applications of science to increase yield, the role of animal products in feeding people, and social aspects such as introducing new technology and the processes through which greater food security may be attained. The contributors are world authorities in their fields, and the book will benefit a wide range of professional workers in the agricultural sciences and in government agencies.
Design of an interactive video-on-demand system (2003)

We design an interactive video-on-demand (VOD) system using both the client-server paradigm and broadcast delivery paradigm. Between the VOD warehouse and customers, we adopt a client-server paradigm to provide an interactive service. Within the VOD warehouse, we adopt a broadcast delivery paradigm to support many concurrent customers. In particular, we exploit the enormous bandwidth of optical fibers for broadcast delivery, so that the system can provide many video programs and maintain a small access delay. In addition, we design and adopt an interleaved broadcast delivery scheme, so that every video stream only requires a small buffer size for temporary storage. A simple proxy is allocated to each ongoing customer, and it retrieves video from optical channels and delivers video to the customer through an information network. The proposed VOD system is suitable for large scale applications with many customers, and has several desirable features: 1) it can be scaled up to serve more concurrent customers and provide more video programs, 2) it provides interactive operations, 3) it only requires point-to-point communication between the VOD warehouse and the customer and involves no network control, 4) it has a small access delay, and 5) it requires a small buffer size for each video stream.
UAV BASED BRDF-MEASUREMENTS OF AGRICULTURAL SURFACES WITH PFIFFIKUS (2012)

Abstract. BRDF is a common problem in remote sensing and also in oblique photogrammetry. Common approaches of BRDF-measurement with a field goniometer are costly and rather cumbersome. UAVs may offer an interesting alternative by using a special flight pattern of oblique and converging images. The main part of this paper is the description of a photogrammetric workflow in order to determine the anisotropic reflection properties of a given surface. Due to the relatively low flying heights standard procedures from close range photogrammetry were adopted for outdoor usage. The photogrammetric processing delivered automatic and highly accurate orientation information with the aid of coded targets. The interior orientation of the consumer grade camera is more or less stable. The radiometrically corrected oblique images are converted into ortho photos. The azimuth and elevation angle of every point may then be computed. The calculated anisotropy of a winter wheat plot is shown. A system four diagonally-looking cameras (Four Vision) and an additional nadir looking camera is under development. The multi camera system especially designed for a Micro- UAV with a payload of min 1 kg. The system is composed of five industrial digital frame cameras (1.3 Mpix CCD-chips, 15 fp/s) with fixed lenses. Also special problems with the construction of a light weight housing of the multi camera solution are covered in the paper.
MOSFET Ultrasonic Surface-Wave Detectors for Programmable Matched Filters (1971)

The piezoresistance effect in Si MOSFET p-channel inversion layers is utilized for the detection of elastic surface waves. Theoretical results for detector sensitivity are described. It is shown that arrays of such detectors can be used for programmable surface-wave signal processing. Variable delay-line operation and the correlation of phase-coded waveforms are demonstrated.
Megahertz operation of organic field-effect transistors based on poly(3-hexylthiopene) (2006)

Switching speed is crucial for many applications in organic electronics. The possibility to achieve higher frequencies will enable new fields of applications. The authors demonstrate high-frequency organic thin film transistors based on poly(3-hexylthiophene). Transistors with submicron channel lengths show unity-gain bandwidth of 2MHz in air at low supply voltages of 10V. For channel lengths L below 500nm deviations from ideal L scaling law are observed experimentally, which are attributed to contact effects. They present a model beyond the ideal scaling law to predict the maximum operational frequency based on transistor parameters, geometry, and contact resistance.
Interrogation of Cellular Innate Immunity by Diamond-Nanoneedle-Assisted Intracellular Molecular Fishing (2015)

Understanding intracellular signaling cascades and network is one of the core topics in modern biology. Novel tools based on nanotechnologies have enabled probing and analyzing intracellular signaling with unprecedented sensitivity and specificity. In this study, we developed a minimally invasive method for in situ probing specific signaling components of cellular innate immunity in living cells. The technique was based on diamond-nanoneedle arrays functionalized with aptamer-based molecular sensors, which were inserted into cytoplasmic domain using a centrifugation controlled process to capture molecular targets. Simultaneously, these diamond-nanoneedles also facilitated the delivery of double-strand DNAs (dsDNA90) into cells to activate the pathway involving the stimulator of interferon genes (STING). We showed that the nanoneedle-based biosensors can be successfully utilized to isolate transcriptional factor, NF-κB, from intracellular regions without damaging the cells, upon STING activation. By using a reversible protocol and repeated probing in living cells, we were able to examine the singling dynamics of NF-κB, which was quickly translocated from cytoplasm to nucleus region within ∼40 min of intracellular introduction of dsDNA90 for both A549 and neuron cells. These results demonstrated a novel and versatile tool for targeted in situ dissection of intracellular signaling, providing the potential to resolve new sights into various cellular processes.
A Complicated Message: Identification of a Novel PB1-Related Protein Translated from Influenza A Virus Segment 2 mRNA (2009)

Influenza A virus segment 2 is known to encode two polypeptides in overlapping open reading frames: PB1, the polymerase, and PB1-F2, a proapoptotic virulence factor. We show that a third major polypeptide is synthesized from PB1 mRNA via differential AUG codon usage. PB1 codon 40 directs translation of an N-terminally truncated version of the polypeptide (N40) that lacks transcriptase function but nevertheless interacts with PB2 and the polymerase complex in the cellular environment. Importantly, the expression of N40, PB1-F2, and PB1 are interdependent, and certain mutations previously used to ablate PB1-F2 production affected N40 accumulation. Removal of the PB1-F2 AUG upregulated N40 synthesis, while truncating PB1-F2 after codon 8 (with a concomitant M40I change in PB1) abolished N40 expression. A virus lacking both N40 and PB1-F2 replicated normally. However, viruses that did not express N40 but retained an intact PB1-F2 gene overexpressed PB1 early in infection and replicated slowly in tissue culture. Thus, the influenza A virus proteome includes a 12th primary translation product that (similarly to PB1-F2) is nonessential for virus viability but whose loss, in particular genetic backgrounds, is detrimental to virus replication.

Multiple sclerosis: a battle between destruction and repair (2006)

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease of the CNS in which an unrelenting attack from the innate and adaptive arms of the immune system results in extensive demyelination, loss of oligodendrocytes and axonal degeneration. This review summarizes advances in the understanding of the cellular and molecular pathways involved in neurodegeneration following autoimmune-mediated inflammation in the CNS. The mechanisms underlying myelin and axonal destruction and the equally important interaction between degenerative and repair mechanisms are discussed. Recent studies have revealed that the failure of CNS regeneration may be in part a result of the presence of myelin-associated growth inhibitory molecules in MS lesions. Successful therapeutic intervention in MS is likely to require suppression of the inflammatory response, in concert with blockade of growth inhibitory molecules and possibly the mobilization or transplantation of stem cells for regeneration.
