Responses of feedlot heifers to MGA feeding and Synovex-h implanting (1968)

Synovex-H has consistently stimulated daily gain and improved feed efficiency of feedlot heifers. However, this hormone does not inhibit the estrus cycle in heifers (which is responsible for excessive animal activity restricting feedlot performance during periods of hot weather). Melengestrol acetate (MGA), a new, synthetic high-potency hormone compound had previously been reported to increase feeding performance when added to the daily ration—and in the two tests reported here, also effectively controlled estrus. Both MGA and Synovex-H significantly increased daily gain and improved feed efficiency over the control animals. The MGA-fed heifers shrank less in transit than either the Synovex-H or control groups, although dressing percentage was about the same for all groups. Tenderness and fat content of rib and bottom round steak were not affected. The size of the rib eye from the MGA-fed heifers was slightly smaller than from the control or Synovex-H groups.
Contact resistance characteristics of noble metal alloys for connector contacts (1991)

Contact resistance characteristics, corrosion characteristics, and the degradation mechanism for several binary and ternary alloys are investigated to evaluate the applicability of lower-cost noble metal alloys to connector contacts. These alloys include Pd, Ag, low-content Au, and Ni. The test connector contacts are clad inlays mated with each other, clad inlays mated with hard gold plating, and clad inlays with hard gold flash mated with inlays of the same material. The atmospheric conditions are air mixed with one or more of the following gases: SO/sub 2/. NO/sub 2/, Cl/sub 2/, or H/sub 2/S. The following alloys, used in inlays of the same alloy that are mated with each other, are listed in order of increasing contact resistance: Au-Ag, Ag-Pd, Au-Ag-Pd, Au-Pd, and Pd-Ni. The contact resistance characteristics of inlays mated with hard gold plating and those of inlays with hard gold flash mated with inlays of the same material are as stable as those of hard gold plating mated with hard gold plating The dominant degradation mechanism affecting the inlay contacts of these alloys is the formation of a corrosion product on the surface area of the contact material. The dominant corrosion products causing an increase in contact resistance are the chlorides in Pd alloys.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Regioselective Reductive Ring Cleavage of 3-Benzyltetrahydro-1,3-oxazines to 3-Dialkylaminopropanols and of 3-Benzyl-3-methyltetrahydro-1,3-oxazinium Iodides to Alkyl 3-Dialkylaminopropyl Ethers (1990)

3-Benzyltetrahydro-1,3-oxazines and their methiodides are ring-cleaved upon reduction with lithium aluminum hydride to give 3-dialkylaminopropanols or alkyl 3-dialkylaminopropyl ethers, respectively, in good yields. The reducing agent regioselectively cleaves the C-O bond in tetrahydro-1,3-oxazines and the C-N bond in the tetrahydro-1,3-oxazinium salts.

Fundamental discussions on seismic vibrators (2010)

Abstract Vibrators are the most widely used sources in land seismic exploration. Successful application of vibroseis technology requires evaluating each element in the vibrator system and ensuring that each part of the system contributes to the success of the method. To obtain a high-quality image of the subsurface using the vibroseis method, it is beneficial to know: the frequency bandwidth the vibrator and its control system can deliver; the outgoing signal from the vibrator and the repeatability of the source signature; and the harmonic distortion level on the vibrator force output and the limits the vibrator is subject to. Fundamental discussions on the vibrator system that have been forgotten over time are presented.

Electrodeposition of Compositionally Modulated Alloys—An Overview (2002)

SUMMARYA new class of materials known as compositionally modulated alloys (CMA) or artificially modulated multilayers has generated an ever-increasing enthusiasm due to their unique properties. This paper reviews the recent developments in the field of electrodeposition techniques for the production of CMA, which offers many advantages over other methods. It also discusses the structure of CMA and their salient properties such as corrosion resistance, magnetic and mechanical properties, which differ to those obtainable in normal metallurgical alloys. Some of their interesting applications are also discussed.
Robust extraction of lane markings using gradient angle histograms and directional signed edges (2012)

In this paper, we propose novel block-based techniques for robust extraction of lane marking edges in complex scenarios, such as in the presence of shadows, vehicles, other road markings etc. The techniques are based on the properties of lane markings and involve a two-stage processing: (1) generation of customized edge maps using histograms of gradient angles, and (2) directional signed edges in combination with Hough Transform to identify lane markings. It is shown that the proposed techniques show a detection accuracy of as high as 98% on test data collected on real road scenarios, representing the various complex cases.
Synergistic Interaction between Silver Nanoparticles and Membrane-Permeabilizing Antimicrobial Peptides (2009)

Silver nanoparticles, as well as antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), can be used to fight infectious diseases. Since AMPs are known to permeabilize bacterial membranes and might therefore help silver nanoparticles to access internal target sites, we investigated their combined activities and showed synergistic effects between polymyxin B and silver nanoparticles for gram-negative bacteria.
Deconvolutional paragraph representation learning (2017)

Learning latent representations from long text sequences is an important first step in many natural language processing applications. Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) have become a cornerstone for this challenging task. However, the quality of sentences during RNN-based decoding (reconstruction) decreases with the length of the text. We propose a sequence-to-sequence, purely convolutional and deconvolutional autoencoding framework that is free of the above issue, while also being computationally efficient. The proposed method is simple, easy to implement and can be leveraged as a building block for many applications. We show empirically that compared to RNNs, our framework is better at reconstructing and correcting long paragraphs. Quantitative evaluation on semi-supervised text classification and summarization tasks demonstrate the potential for better utilization of long unlabeled text data.
Relationship of Hydrogen Peroxide Production by <i>Mycoplasma pulmonis</i> to Virulence for Catalase-deficient Mice (1969)

Mycoplasma pulmonis, an etiological agent of murine pneumonia, produced about 0.065 mumoles of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) per hr per 10(10) colony-forming units. When glucose was present at a concentration of 0.01 m, H(2)O(2) production was increased by 50%. To determine if H(2)O(2) production by M. pulmonis could be correlated with virulence, normal, acatalasemic, and acatalatic mice were infected with the organism. Three days after infection with M. pulmonis significantly more acatalatic mice had pneumonia than did normal or acatalasemic mice. The pneumonia in acatalatic mice was also more severe than in the other two groups. Five days after infection, pneumonia in the acatalatic mice was resolved, whereas normal mice were severely affected. The presence of pneumonia and the severity were correlated with the recovery of M. pulmonis from the lesions. In vitro studies of the effect of catalase on M. pulmonis showed that exogenously supplied catalase stimulated the growth of M. pulmonis at 37 C and prolonged its survival at 25 C. Hemolysis of sheep blood, guinea pig blood, rabbit blood, and normal and acatalasemic mouse blood by M. pulmonis was inversely related to the catalase activity of the erythrocytes. These findings suggest that H(2)O(2) secretion contributes to the virulence of M. pulmonis and to the death of the microorganism in the absence of host catalase.
Continuous Restructuring of Mechanically Deboned Chicken Meat by HTST Extrusion‐Cooking (1985)

ABSTRACT The continuous restructuring of mechanically deboned chicken meat (MDM) was attempted using twin‐screw extrusion‐cooking at high moisture contents (50‐80%), high temperatures (ca 150°C), short residence times (30‐240 sec) and low pressures (below 6 bars). The hardness, cohesiveness and water‐holding capacity of the nonexpanded moist extruded samples are optimal and resemble those of meat‐loaf when 10‐20% wheat flour or pregelatinized corn starch are added to MDM. Incorporation of 25% soy protein isolate gives a solid gel matrix containing dispersed meat particles. Scaling up this process could lead to the continuous production of simulated meat chunks or slices for use in canned or frozen dishes.
Detonation models of fast combustion waves in nanoscale Al-MoO<sub>3</sub>bulk powder media (2012)

Abstract The combustion of nanometric aluminum (Al) powder with an oxidiser such as molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) is studied analytically. This study focuses on detonation wave models and a Chapman-Jouget detonation model provides reasonable agreement with experimentally-observed wave speeds provided that multiphase equilibrium sound speeds are applied at the downstream edge of the detonation wave. The results indicate that equilibrium sound speeds of multiphase mixtures can play a critical role in determining speeds of fast combustion waves in nanoscale Al-MoO3 powder mixtures.

Opioid receptor agonists and Ca2+ modulation in human B cell lines (1992)

Opiates and opioid peptides have been shown to modulate lymphocyte functions; however, little attention has been given to the type of receptors or receptor signaling mechanisms that are involved. Receptor-mediated signaling via ionized free Ca2+ is an event thought to be important in the triggering of lymphocyte activities. We report use of the calcium indicator dye, indo-1, and flow cytometry to identify B lymphocyte calcium responses to physiologic concentrations of opioid peptides. The human B cell lines Nalm 6 and JY responded to the naturally occurring opioid pentapeptide methionine-enkephalin or other opiate receptor agonists with a rapid, dose-dependent rise in free cytoplasmic Ca2+. This opioid peptide effect on Ca2+ modulation was inhibited by the opiate receptor antagonist naloxone. The synthetic enkephalin analogue DAMGO with specificity for mu-type opiate receptors and the synthetic opiate receptor agonists U50,488H and U69,593 with selectivity for kappa-type sites also stimulated calcium responses when applied to the B cell lines. These studies provide evidence that human B cell lines express functional opiate receptors of the mu- and kappa-types and suggest that such receptors, coupled with Ca2+ modulation, are instrumental in the B cell response to opiates and endogenous opioid neuropeptides.
Neuronal Correlates of Local, Lateral, and Translaminar Inhibition with Reference to Cortical Columns (2008)

In the neocortex, inhibition by gamma-aminobutyric acidergic (GABAergic) interneurons is essential for shaping cortical maps, which represent sensory signals. For a detailed understanding of the stream of excitation evoked, for example, by a sensory stimulus, interneurons must be identified with reference to their impact on excitatory neurons located in different laminae of the same (home) and surround columns. We analyzed the axonal projection of layer 2/3 (L2/3) interneurons with reference to geometric landmarks of cortical columns by staining neurons in acute slices of rat barrel cortex (P20-P29) and a subsequent cluster analysis using morphological parameters that described the spatial distribution of axons. The cluster analysis defined 4 main axonal projection "types" referred to as 1) "local inhibitors" (including "chandelier neurons"), 2) "lateral inhibitors," 3) "translaminar L2/3-to-L4/5 inhibitors," and 4) "translaminar L2/3-to-L1 inhibitors." The putative innervation domains established by axonal projections of the 4 types of interneurons and the dendritic domains of their target excitatory neurons were 1) L2/3 of the home column, 2) L2/3 of both the home and neighboring columns, 3) L4 and L5A of the home column, and 4) L1 and L2/3 of the home column. The quantitative analysis of the axonal projection patterns of an unselected sample of 51 interneurons located in L2/3 thus defined anatomical correlates for local, lateral, and translaminar inhibition within and between cortical columns.

AS/400 software quality management (1994)

This paper describes the software quality management system for the Application System/400® (AS/400®) computer system. Key elements of the quality management system such as customer satisfaction, product quality, continuous process improvement, and people are discussed. Based on empirical data, recent progress in several quality parameters of the AS/400 software system are examined. The quality action road map that describes the various quality actions that were deployed is presented, as are the other elements that enabled the implementation of the quality management system.
THE GASTROINTESTINAL ABSORPTION OF UNALTERED PROTEIN IN NORMAL INFANTS AND IN INFANTS RECOVERING FROM DIARRHEA (1955)

The serum concentration of egg albumin after the oral administration of 1 gm./kg. of purified egg albumin was determined by means of a quantitative immunochemical technique in 21 infants recovering from diarrhea and in 19 control subjects of the same age. In the patients with diarrhea the concentrations were significantly greater than in the controls. The use of hypoallergenic food in the recovery phase of diarrhea is recommended.
Coupling coefficients in gain-coupled DFB lasers: inherent compromise between coupling strength and loss (1991)

A theoretical analysis of the gain-coupling coefficient for distributed feedback (DFB) lasers with first-order, rectangular, gain, or loss gratings is presented. For the structure with gain grating, the dependence of the gain-coupling coefficient on the modal gain has been taken into account for the first time. In both structures, an inherent compromise between coupling strength and extra modal loss is found. The results show that significant gain-coupling coefficient values are feasible.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Human Ventricular Action Potential Duration During Short and Long Cycles (1996)

LAD occlusion in patients during balloon angioplasty shortened MAP duration of basic beats and minimized, abolished, or reversed the normal APD/diastolic-interval relation of test beats of altered cycle length at sites served by the occluded vessel. The results suggest that ischemia flattens the electrical restitution curve in the human endocardium. These findings may have important implications in arrhythmogenesis.
Chaining Multiple-Alignment Blocks (1994)

We derive a time-efficient method for building a multiple alignment consisting of a highest-scoring chain of "blocks," i.e., short gap-free alignments. Besides executing faster than a general-purpose multiple-alignment program, the method may be particularly appropriate when discovery of blocks meeting a certain criterion is the main reason for aligning the sequences. Utility of the method is illustrated by locating a chain of "phylogenetic footprints" (specifically, exact matches of length 6 or more) in the 5'-flanking regions of six mammalian epsilon-globin genes.

Therapeutic hepatocyte transplant for inherited metabolic disorders: functional considerations, recent outcomes and future prospects (2013)

The applications, outcomes and future strategies of hepatocyte transplantation (HTx) as a corrective intervention for inherited metabolic disease (IMD) are described. An overview of HTx in IMDs, as well as preclinical evaluations in rodent and other mammalian models, is summarized. Current treatments for IMDs are highlighted, along with short- and long-term outcomes and the potential for HTx to supplement or supplant these treatments. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of HTx are presented, highlighted by long-term challenges with interorgan engraftment and expansion of transplanted cells, in addition to the future prospects of stem cell transplants. At present, the utility of HTx is represented by the potential to bridge patients with life-threatening liver disease to organ transplantation, especially as an adjuvant intervention where severe organ shortages continue to pose challenges.
SACD algorithm of pulse stream analysis (2008)

Final task of ESM (Electronic Support Measures) equipment is emitter identification. Identification in primary layer is based on processing of pulses stream existing on ESM equipment input. In this process each emitter is determined by set of parameters. Pulses in ESM equipment, during measurement process are associated with angle of arrival (AOA), frequency and time parameters. Those parameters constitute primary base for deinterleaving process. Time of arrival (TOA) is a basic parameter. It assures pulse repetition interval (PRI) estimation. PRI of radar signals usually is modulated in specific manner (e.g. stagger, sliding, dwell and switch) or in cyclic way and also it can have stochastic nature (e.g. jitter). Identification of PRI changes improves emitter description what has a considerable impact on recognition correctness. Detection of cycle in PRI modulation is relatively easy task from computation point of view and under assumption that acquired pulses stream can be associated with particular emitter. In practice due to antenna movement, ESM equipment acquires pulse trains (parts of pulses stream). Furthermore some pulses are missing and some additional pulses appear as result of noise and signal interaction. The methods of cycle detection presented in literature of problem have O(n2) computational complexity and require considerably big memory. The paper presents sequential algorithm of cycle detection (SACD) that has linear O(n) computational complexity. Results of examinations confirm high effectiveness of PRI parameters estimation for non-homogenous pulses stream.
