A model poison control system. (1982)

Responding to the need for a poison information, education, data collection and research resource in California's Bay Area and North Coast counties, the San Francisco Bay Area Regional Poison Control Center has become an integral part of the region's emergency medical services. In the first 33 months after it opened, more than 54,000 calls for assistance were received, nearly a third from medical professionals. Through the cooperation and collaboration of public, private and university resources and interests, a cost-effective, comprehensive and accessible system has evolved for public and professional use. Through our experience a system has developed that can serve as a model for poison information services throughout the western states. Emerging public concern for toxicology issues will continue to refine this model.
A general one-pot process leading to highly functionalised ordered mesoporous silica films (2004)

Various organic moieties are homogeneously introduced in high quantities into mesostructured porous silica films through a general co-condensation process, which influences the self-assembly mechanism, depending on the physico-chemical properties of each function.
Corrosion Inhibitors for Steel★ (1951)

Many inhibitors, added to water or chloride solution in amounts insufficient to stop attack altogether, produce localized attack, which is more intense than the general corrosion met with in the absence of an inhibitor. Inhibitors which are free from this danger are, in most cases, inefficient. It is believed that the danger is connected with the formation of blister-like membranes over the sensitive points, which prevent the access of the inhibitor to those very points where it is required. By using, suitable mixtures of phosphate and chromate (or phosphate and persulphate), so that any substance precipitated will not be ferrous phosphate but ferric phosphate a crystalline non-membranous body), the danger can be avoided. Even if the mixture is added to an amount too small to stop corrosion altogether, no intensified corrosion or pitting is observed.
CD8<sup>+</sup>T-Cell-Mediated Cross-Clade Protection in the Genital Tract following Intranasal Immunization with Inactivated Human Immunodeficiency Virus Antigen Plus CpG Oligodeoxynucleotides (2004)

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a mucosally transmitted infection that rapidly targets and depletes CD4+ T cells in mucosal tissues and establishes a major reservoir for viral persistence in gut-associated lymphoid tissues. Therefore, vaccines designed to prevent HIV infections must induce potent and durable mucosal immune responses, especially in the genital tract. Here we investigated whether intranasal (i.n.) immunization with inactivated gp120-depleted HIV-1 antigen (Ag) plus CpG oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) as an adjuvant induced local immune responses in the genital tract and cross-clade protection against intravaginal (IVAG) challenge. Lymphocytes isolated from the iliac lymph nodes (ILNs) and genital tracts of female mice i.n. immunized with HIV-1 Ag plus CpG showed significant HIV-specific proliferation and produced significantly higher levels of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) and beta-chemokines than mice immunized with HIV-1 Ag alone or mixed with non-CpG ODN. CD8+ lymphocytes were dramatically increased in the genital tracts of mice immunized with HIV-1 Ag plus CpG, and protection following IVAG challenge with recombinant vaccinia viruses (rVVs) expressing HIV-1 gag was shown to be CD8 dependent. Finally, cross-clade protection was observed between clades A, C, and G but not B following IVAG challenge with rVVs expressing HIV-1 gag from different clades. These studies provide evidence that mucosal (i.n.) immunization induced strong local T-cell-mediated immune responses in the genital tract and cross-clade protection against IVAG challenge.

High-performance local area communication with fast sockets (1997)

Modern switched networks such as ATM and Myrinet enable low-latency, high-bandwidth communication. This performance has not been realized by current applications, because of the high processing overheads imposed by existing communications software. These overheads are usually not hidden with large packets; most network traffic is small. We have developed Fast Sockets, a local-area communication layer that utilizes a high-performance protocol and exports the Berkeley Sockets programming interface. Fast Sockets realizes round-trip transfer times of 60 microseconds and maximum transfer bandwidth of 33 MB/second between two UltraSPARC 1s connected by a Myrinet network. Fast Sockets obtains performance by collapsing protocol layers, using simple buffer management strategies, and utilizing knowledge of packet destinations for direct transfer into user buffers. Using receive posting, we make the Sockets API a single-copy communications layer and enable regular Sockets programs to exploit the performance of modern networks. Fast Sockets transparently reverts to standard TCP/IP protocols for wide-area communication.
Uncovering a Calcium-Regulated Membrane-Binding Mechanism for Soybean Lipoxygenase-1 (1998)

Lipoxygenases catalyze the biosynthesis of leukotrienes, lipoxins, and other lipid-derived mediators that are involved in a wide variety of pathophysiological processes, including inflammation, allergy, and tumorigenesis. Mammalian lipoxygenases are activated by a calcium-mediated translocation to intracellular membranes upon cell stimulation, and cooperate with cytosolic phospholipase A2 at the membrane surface to generate eicosanoids. Although it has been documented that plant cell stimulation increases intracellular Ca2+ concentration and activates cytosolic phospholipase A2, followed by lipoxygenase-catalyzed conversion of the liberated linolenic acid to jasmonic acid, no evidence is available for Ca2+-regulated membrane binding and activity of plant lipoxygenases. Plant lipoxygenases, unlike their mammalian counterparts, are believed to function independently of calcium or membranes. Here we present spectroscopic evidence for a calcium-regulated membrane-binding mechanism of soybean lipoxygenase-1 (L-1). Both calcium and membrane binding affect the structure and the mode of action of L-1. Free L-1 in solution is less accessible to the polar solvent and converts linoleic acid to conjugated dienes, whereas surface binding increases solvent accessibility and stimulates conjugated ketodiene production. Calcium exerts a biphasic effect on the structure and activity of L-1. Our results uncover a new regulatory mechanism for plant lipoxygenases and delineate common features in animal and plant cell signaling pathways.
Bildung und Koaleszenz von Blasen und Tropfen (1988)

Abstract Formation and coalescence of bubbles and droplets. Generation and coalescence of bubbles and droplets are essential requirements for technical reactions and exchange processes. The paper deals with the dispersion of gases and liquids with the aid of single orifices and of sieve plates in liquids of various viscosities under gravity and centrifugal conditions and furthermore with the mechanical foam separation and with the coalescence of drops on inclined plates. The paper summarizes results from the literature as well as from the Sonderforschungsbereich (SFB) 153 at the Technical University of Munich.
Untersuchungen über die Wirksamkeit von Konservierungsmitteln in anionaktiven Tensiden I (1968)

Abstract Fünf Konservierungsmittel wurden bei den pH‐Werten 6, 7 und 8 in 10%igen Lösungen der anionaktiven Tenside Natriumlaurylsulfat, Eiweißfettsäurekondensat und Natriumlauryläthersulfat auf ihre konservierende Wirkung untersucht. Es wurde gefunden, daß die drei schwer wasserlöslichen Verbindungen p‐Chlor‐m‐kresol, Pentachlorphenol und die p.H.B.‐Ester Kombination Methyl‐Äthylester bei den üblichen Konzentrationen wirkungslos sind. Die beiden wasserlöslichen Konservierungsmittel Polyoxymethylenglykol und Chloracetamid dagegen sind wirksam. Beim Konservierungsmittel Chloracetamid konnte ferner beobachtet werden, daß die anionaktiven Tenside dessen Wirksamkeit steigern. Die Inaktivierung der drei schwer wasserlöslichen Konservierungsmittel wird auf die Solubilisierung dieser Verbindungen durch die Micellen der anionaktiven Tenside zurückgeführt.

The vision entails further development of technologies that will facilitate the creation and use of a new generation of smart books: e-books that are evolving, highly interactive, customisable, adaptable, intelligent, and furnished with a rich set of collaborative authoring and reading support services. The proposed set of tools will be integrated into an intelligent framework for collaborative book authoring and experiencing called SmartBook. The paper also discusses the opportunities to use SmartBook as a vehicle for building professional virtual communities of practice in the framework of a University 2.0 organization dedicated to industry-university cooperation.
Neutralizing interaction between heparins and myotoxin II, a lysine 49 phospholipase A2 from Bothrops asper snake venom. Identification of a heparin-binding and cytolytic toxin region by the use of synthetic peptides and molecular modeling. (1994)

Heparin binds to phospholipase 4 myotoxins fromBothrops asper snake venom, inhibiting their toxic activities.This interaction was investigated using purified myotoxin 11, a Lys-49 phospholipase A, of this venom, and a series of heparin variants, fragments, and other glycosaminoglycans.The binding was correlated to toxin neutralization, using endothelial cells as a target.Myotoxin I1 binds radiolabeled heparin in solution unselectively, and forms macromolecular complexes with an optimum at a heparin:toxin molar ratio of 1:5.Both O-sulfates and N-sulfates play a role in heparin binding, in the order of importance 2-O-sulfates > 6-Osulfates > N-sulfates.The shortest heparin oligosaccharides interacting with myotoxin I1 are hexasaccharides.The binding of a neutralizing monoclonal antibody (MAb-3) to myotoxin I1 was not inhibited by heparin, indicating that the two molecules interact with different sites on the toxin.A synthetic peptide (residues 115-129 in the numbering system of Renetseder et al.

SAFEWAPI: web API misuse detector for web applications (2014)

The evolution of Web 2.0 technologies makes web applications prevalent in various platforms including mobile devices and smart TVs. While one of the driving technologies of web applications is JavaScript, the extremely dynamic features of JavaScript make it very difficult to define and detect errors in JavaScript applications. The problem becomes more important and complicated for JavaScript web applications which may lead to severe security vulnerabilities. To help developers write safe JavaScript web applications using vendor-specific Web APIs, vendors specify their APIs often in Web IDL, which enables both API writers and users to communicate better by understanding the expected behaviors of the Web APIs. In this paper, we present SAFEWAPI, a tool to analyze Web APIs and JavaScript web applications that use the Web APIs and to detect possible misuses of Web APIs by the web applications. Even though the JavaScript language semantics allows to call a function defined with some parameters without any arguments, platform developers may require application writers to provide the exact number of arguments. Because the library functions in Web APIs expose their intended semantics clearly to web application developers unlike pure JavaScript functions, we can detect wrong uses of Web APIs precisely. For representative misuses of Web APIs defined by software quality assurance engineers, our SAFEWAPI detects such misuses in real-world JavaScript web applications.

Synthesis of Polyaryl Rigid-Core Carbosilane Dendrimers for Supported Organic Synthesis (2009)

Carbosilane dendrimers can be used as soluble supports for organic synthesis, since their structure allows separation of excess reagents from the supported products, eventually yielding products of high purity and in high yield, as in solid-phase organic synthesis (SPOS). In previous studies often loss of dendritic material during filtration was observed, due to the rather flexible structure of the conventional dendrimers. In order to improve the diafiltration retention of the carbosilane dendrimers, the synthesis of carbosilane dendrimers based on more rigid-core molecules was investigated. Both 1,3,5-tris(4-bromophenyl)benzene 1 and tetrakis(4-bromophenyl)silane 2 were selected on the basis of their rigid structure and suitable functional groups for further functionalization using organolithium chemistry. An optimized halogen lithium exchange (HLE) protocol was developed for the synthesis of 2 via 1-bromo-4-lithiobenzene. This protocol involves reaction of an aryl bromide with n-BuLi at room temperature, followed by partial removal of the solvent by evaporation (∼70%, v/v), addition of pentane to promote precipitation of the aryl lithium compound, and centrifugation and removal of the solvent to obtain, after repeating the last two steps once, the wet aryl lithium compound in pure form. This HLE protocol was proven to be effective for mono- and dilithiation, as well as for polylithiation reactions of aryl bromides. Furthermore, the rigid tris(4-bromophenyl)chlorosilane wedge 3 was synthesized to add a rigid generation to the prepared core molecules, and bromotriallylsilane 4 was synthesized for the introduction of triallylsilyl moieties on the periphery of the core molecules. With these four building blocks several rigid-core carbosilane dendrimers were synthesized, which can be applied as better retainable soluble supports for organic synthesis in a diafiltration setup.
A novel Ethernet over Coax solution employing multi-point control protocol (2011)

A novel EoC (Ethernet over Coax) approach, called ECAN (Ethernet over Coaxial Access Network) is presented in the paper. ECAN is specially designed for the last 100-meter access over coax rather than an adoption from the home network solutions. ECAN employs MPCP (Multipoint Control Protocol) in the media access control layer and uses the single-carrier n-VSB (Vestigial Sideband) modulation in the low frequency band for the bidirectional communication. The basic concept, the implementation architecture and the tested system performances are presented in the paper. It is shown that ECAN can work in different scenarios and provide >100Mbps or up to 130Mbps throughput out of the 160Mbps physical level bit-rate. This proves that ECAN has efficient bandwidth utility, high cost-effectivity and high practicality.

BF<sub>3</sub>·2CF<sub>3</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>OH (BF<sub>3</sub>·2TFE), an Efficient Superacidic Catalyst for Some Organic Synthetic Transformations (2006)

BF3.2CF3CH2OH complex was found to be a very effective superacidic catalyst comparable in acid strength to at least that of 100% anhydrous sulfuric acid for various acid-catalyzed organic transformations such as isomerizations, rearrangements, ionic hydrogenation of various ketones, and aromatics with triethylsilane and nitration of aromatics with metal nitrate. Studies of the pivalaldehyde-methyl isopropyl ketone rearrangement and the benzopinacol to phenanthrene transformation suggest that the complex has an acidity comparable to that of 100% anhydrous sulfuric acid. The structure and properties of the 1:2 boron trifluoride-trifluoroethanol complex have been further studied using NMR (1H, 13C, 19F, 11B) and DFT calculations at the B3LYP/6-311++G//B3LYP/6-31G level.
Effect of four-wave mixing on WDM optical systems: a statistical analysis (2003)

The dense wavelength-division-multiplexed system design requires an accurate knowledge of the four-wave mixing (FWM), which gives rise to intermodulation effects, especially when using very low-dispersion fibers. In this letter, a statistical analysis is presented that takes into account both the effect on the FWM intermodulation products due to dispersive propagation, and the statistics of such intermodulation terms, which must be considered as random processes. In particular, the autocorrelation function of the FWM process is calculated for the independent wavelength-division-multiplexing optical channel.

P2P group management systems (2013)

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks are becoming eminent platforms for both distributed computing and interpersonal communication. Their role in contemporary multimedia content delivery and communication systems is strong, as witnessed by many popular applications and services. Groups in P2P systems can originate from the relations between humans, or they can be defined with purely technical criteria such as proximity. In this article, we present a conceptual analysis of P2P group management systems. We illustrate how groups are formed using different P2P system architectures, and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of using each P2P system architecture for implementing P2P group management. The evaluation criteria in the analysis are performance, robustness, fairness, suitability for battery-powered devices, scalability, and security. The outcome of the analysis facilitates the selection of an appropriate P2P system architecture for implementing P2P group management in both further research and prototype development.
Whole-body plethysmography, does it measure tidal volume of small animals? (1998)

A whole-body plethysmograph was used for mice. The increase in pressure caused by each inhalation was equivalent to the increase that could be calculated to result from heating and humidification of the inhaled air. However, comprehending that a drop in temperature and humidity would cause an abrupt pressure decline during exhalation was difficult. Pressure changes in the plethysmograph were also studied with an artificial chest, modeling the respiratory mechanics, but without the "inhaled" air being heated or humidified. The "chest" consisted of a metal bellows oscillated by a stepper motor 25 to 175 times per minute. Hereby air (0.05 to 0.20 mL) moved in and out of the bellows. The air passed through a polyethylene tube, the length of which was proportional to "airway resistance" and varied from 5 to 35 cm. It was found that the pressure oscillation was affected not only by "tidal volume" of the mechanical chest but also by "respiratory rate" and by "airway resistance." We concur with previous investigators that the plethysmograph pressure reflects alveolar pressure and that fluctuations cannot be explained by changes in temperature and humidity. Accordingly, tidal volume can only be qualitatively and not quantitatively assessed.Key words: tidal volume, airway resistance, respiratory rate, chest model.
Harzianic acid: a novel siderophore from<i>Trichoderma harzianum</i> (2013)

Agriculture-relevant microorganisms are considered to produce secondary metabolites during processes of competition with other micro- and macro-organisms, symbiosis, parasitism or pathogenesis. Many different strains of the genus Trichoderma, in addition to a direct activity against phytopathogens, are well-known producers of secondary metabolites and compounds that substantially affect the metabolism of the host plant. Harzianic acid is a Trichoderma secondary metabolite, showing antifungal and plant growth promotion activities. This report demonstrates the ability of this tetramic acid to bind with a good affinity essential metals such as Fe(3+) , which may represent a mechanism of iron solubilisation that significantly alters nutrient availability in the soil environment for other microorganisms and the host plant.
Corrosion Resistance of Zn-31AlMg Coatings Obtained by Batch Hot Dip Method (2013)

In the paper the authors present the results of corrosion resistance tests on coatings obtained in zinc-aluminium baths with the addition of Mg by use of the batch hot dip method. The content of Al in the bath was 31%, while the content of magnesium was 3 and 6%. In order to define corrosion resistance, two standard corrosion tests were performed in neutral salt spray and inmoist atmosphere containing sulphur dioxide. Corrosion resistance of tested pieces was compared with the corrosion resistance of a traditional zinc coating. It was established that Zn-31AlMg coatings have very good corrosion resistance in the tested environments, better than that of zinc coatings.
A Context-Aware User-Item Representation Learning for Item Recommendation (2017)

Both reviews and user-item interactions (i.e., rating scores) have been widely adopted for user rating prediction. However, these existing techniques mainly extract the latent representations for users and items in an independent and static manner. That is, a single static feature vector is derived to encode her preference without considering the particular characteristics of each candidate item. We argue that this static encoding scheme is difficult to fully capture the users' preference. In this paper, we propose a novel context-aware user-item representation learning model for rating prediction, named CARL. Namely, CARL derives a joint representation for a given user-item pair based on their individual latent features and latent feature interactions. Then, CARL adopts Factorization Machines to further model higher-order feature interactions on the basis of the user-item pair for rating prediction. Specifically, two separate learning components are devised in CARL to exploit review data and interaction data respectively: review-based feature learning and interaction-based feature learning. In review-based learning component, with convolution operations and attention mechanism, the relevant features for a user-item pair are extracted by jointly considering their corresponding reviews. However, these features are only review-driven and may not be comprehensive. Hence, interaction-based learning component further extracts complementary features from interaction data alone, also on the basis of user-item pairs. The final rating score is then derived with a dynamic linear fusion mechanism. Experiments on five real-world datasets show that CARL achieves significantly better rating prediction accuracy than existing state-of-the-art alternatives. Also, with attention mechanism, we show that the relevant information in reviews can be highlighted to interpret the rating prediction.
