Advances and Future Challenges in Printed Batteries (2015)

There is an increasing interest in thin and flexible energy storage devices to meet modern society's needs for applications such as radio frequency sensing, interactive packaging, and other consumer products. Printed batteries comply with these requirements and are an excellent alternative to conventional batteries for many applications. Flexible and microbatteries are also included in the area of printed batteries when fabricated using printing technologies. The main characteristics, advantages, disadvantages, developments, and printing techniques of printed batteries are presented and discussed in this Review. The state-of-the-art takes into account both the research and industrial levels. On the academic level, the research progress of printed batteries is divided into lithium-ion and Zn-manganese dioxide batteries and other battery types, with emphasis on the different materials for anode, cathode, and separator as well as in the battery design. With respect to the industrial state-of-the-art, materials, device formulations, and manufacturing techniques are presented. Finally, the prospects and challenges of printed batteries are discussed.
Hierarchical Modeling and Recognition of Manipulative Gesture (2005)

In order to achieve natural, proactive, and non-intrusive interaction between humans and robots, the understanding of human actions is a highly relevant task. In this paper, a vision-based method for manipulative gesture recognition is proposed. Different from the traditional trajectory-based approaches, the manipulative actions are modeled not only based on the hand trajectories but also on the object context. This context-based trajectory recognition is embedded in a hierarchical hidden Markov model which represents the hierarchical structures in manipulation tasks. For representation, a lattice dynamic Bayesian network is used and the inference is done by particle filtering. The results of experiments in an office environment show the applicability of this approach for recognizing manipulative gesture. 1
Flow-Based Identification of P2P Heavy-Hitters (2006)

One major new and often not welcome source of Internet traffic is P2P filesharing traffic. Banning P2P usage is not always possible or enforcible, especially in a university environment. A more restrained approach allows P2P usage, but limits the available bandwidth. This approach fails when users start to use non-default ports for the client software. We have developed the PeerTracker algorithm that allows detection of running P2P clients from NetFlow data in near real-time. The algorithm is especially suitable to identify clients that generate large amounts of traffic and can easily be used to find P2P heavy-hitters. A prototype system based on the PeerTracker algorithm is currently used by the network operations staff at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich. We present measurements done on a medium sized Internet backbone and discuss accuracy issues, as well as possibilities and results from validation of the detection algorithm by direct polling in real-time.
AMINO ACID SEQUENCE OF BOVINE THYROCALCITONIN (1969)

Bovine thyrocalcitonin has been isolated in homogeneous form, and its complete amino acid sequence determined. The bovine hormone is a singlechain 32 amino acid polypeptide. It contains a 1-7 amino terminal disulfide bridge, and the carboxyl terminal amino acid is prolinamide. The bovine thyrocalcitonin sequence differs from the porcine sequence by three amino acid residues and from the human sequence by 18 amino acid residues.
Recent Advances in Titanium Radical Redox Catalysis (2019)

New catalytic strategies that leverage single-electron redox events have provided chemists with useful tools for solving synthetic problems. In this context, Ti offers opportunities that are complementary to late transition metals for reaction discovery. Following foundational work on epoxide reductive functionalization, recent methodological advances have significantly expanded the repertoire of Ti radical chemistry. This Synopsis summarizes recent developments in the burgeoning area of Ti radical catalysis with a focus on innovative catalytic strategies such as radical redox-relay and dual catalysis.
Novel Benzo[<i>b</i>]thiophene Derivatives as New Potential Antidepressants with Rapid Onset of Action (2011)

We report benzo[b]thiophene derivatives synthesized according to a dual strategy. 8j, 9c, and 9e with affinity values toward 5-HT(7)R and 5-HTT were selected to probe their antidepressant activity in vivo using the forced swimming text (FST). The results showed significant antidepressant activity after chronic treatment. 9c was effective in reducing the immobility time in FST even after acute treatment. These findings identify these compounds as a new class of antidepressants with a rapid onset of action.
Mean square errors for tracking in clutter with strongest neighbor measurements (2002)

A simple method for tracking in clutter is the so-called strongest neighbor filter (SNF), which uses the "strongest neighbor" (SN) measurement (i.e., the one with the strongest amplitude in the neighborhood of the predicted target measurement) at each time as if it were the true one. This paper presents analytic results, along with insightful discussions, for the SN measurement and the SNF, including the covariance matrices of the SN measurement, and various matrix mean square errors of state prediction and state update. These results provide theoretical foundation for performance prediction and development of improved tracking filters.
Primary structure and functional expression from cDN A of the cardiac ryanodine receptor/calcium release channel (1990)

The sequence of 4968 (or 4976 with an insertion) amino acids composing the ryanodine receptor from rabbit cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum has been deduced by cloning and sequencing the cDNA. This protein is homologous in amino acid sequence and shares characteristic structural features with the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor. Xenopus oocytes injected with mRNA derived from the cardiac ryanodine receptor cDNA exhibit Ca2(+)-dependent Cl- current in response to caffeine, which indicates the formation of functional calcium release channels. RNA blot hybridization analysis with a probe specific for the cardiac ryanodine receptor mRNA shows that the stomach and brain contain a hybridizable RNA species with a size similar to that of the cardiac mRNA. This result, in conjunction with cloning and analysis of partial cDNA sequences, suggests that the brain contains a cardiac type of ryanodine receptor mRNA.

PRELIMINARY VALIDITY OF “INTEGNEURO<sup>TM</sup>”: A NEW COMPUTERIZED BATTERY OF NEUROCOGNITIVE TESTS (2005)

The purpose of this study was to examine the preliminary validity of a newly developed battery of computerized cognitive measures, IntegNeuro. This standardized and semi-automated computerized battery assesses sensori-motor function, attention, new learning and memory, language fluency, executive function, and estimated intelligence. A total of 50 healthy individuals (aged 22-80 years) were included in the study. Correlational analyses revealed highly significant associations between the two cognitive batteries. These results support the use of IntegNeuro as a computerized cognitive system. Additional studies are needed to examine the clinical utility of the battery.
Virus-mediated release of endosomal content in vitro: different behavior of adenovirus and rhinovirus serotype 2. (1995)

Endosomal penetration by nonenveloped viruses might be accomplished by either local breakdown of the endosomal membrane (e.g., adenovirus) or formation of a membrane-spanning pore by capsid proteins. Uncoating of the nonenveloped virus human rhinovirus serotype 2 (HRV2) has been shown to occur from late endosomes and to be entirely dependent on the acidic pH in this compartment (Prchla, E., E. Kuechler, D. Blaas, and R. Fuchs. 1994. J. Virol. 68: 3713-3723). To investigate further the mechanism of uncoating of HRV2, an in vitro assay was established to test viruses or virus-derived peptides for their capacity to release cointernalized biotin-dextran of different molecular mass (10 and 70 kD) from isolated endosomes. The suitability of the assay was demonstrated by use of a fusogenic peptide derived from influenza virus hemagglutinin (GALA-INF3). Whereas adenovirus induced a low pH-dependent release of up to 46% of the internalized biotin-dextran and did not show any significant size selectivity (as expected for endosome disruption), HRV2 mediated release of 27% of the 10 kD dextran and only traces of the 70-kD dextran. Similarly, GALA-INF3-induced release of biotin-dextran was also size dependent. The potential role of the capsid protein VP1 in HRV2 uncoating in vivo was also substantiated in our in vitro system using an amphipathic, NH2-terminal peptide of VP1. Taken together, these data favor the model of a specific pore-forming mechanism for HRV2 uncoating which is in contrast to the membrane-disrupting mechanism of adenovirus.
Toxicity of oxalysine and oxalysine-containing peptides against Candida albicans: regulation of peptide transport by amino acids (1992)

A lysine antimetabolite, L-4-oxalysine [H2NCH2CH2OCH2CH(NH2)COOH], and oxalysine-containing di-, tri-, tetra- and pentapeptides inhibited growth of Candida albicans H317. Micromolar amounts of amino acids were found to overcome ammonium repression of the di- and tripeptide transport system(s) in strain H317. Several amino acids increased the toxicity of oxalysine-containing di- and tripeptides for C. albicans with little or no increase in toxicity of oxalysine or oxalysine-containing tetra- and pentapeptides. L-Lysine completely reversed the toxicity of oxalysine by competing with the transport of oxalysine into the cells. In contrast, L-lysine increased the toxicity of oxalysine-containing di- and tripeptides, but had no effect on the toxicity of oxalysine-containing tetra- and pentapeptides. Incubation of cells with L-lysine for 4 h resulted in a 15-fold increase in the rate of transport of radiolabelled dileucine, indicating that increased sensitivity of C. albicans to some toxic peptides in the presence of L-lysine may be attributed to an increased rate of transport of these peptides. Our results indicate that the dipeptide and tripeptide transport system(s) of C. albicans are regulated by micromolar amounts of amino acids in a similar fashion to the regulation of peptide transport in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and that multiple peptide transport systems differentially regulated by various nitrogen sources and amino acids exist in C. albicans.
Thermoresponsive Dynamic Covalent Single‐Chain Polymer Nanoparticles Reversibly Transform into a Hydrogel (2012)

To gel and back: Polymer nanoparticles can be reversibly transformed into a chemically cross-linked hydrogel. This transformation is triggered by the application of heat, which causes the polymer chains to aggregate, and the dynamic nature of the covalent cross-linking serves to reorganize the polymer chains into a hydrogel network.

Norepinephrine induces calcium spikes and proinflammatory actions in human hepatic stellate cells (2006)

Catecholamines participate in the pathogenesis of portal hypertension and liver fibrosis through alpha1-adrenoceptors. However, the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms are largely unknown. Here, we investigated the effects of norepinephrine (NE) on human hepatic stellate cells (HSC), which exert vasoactive, inflammatory, and fibrogenic actions in the injured liver. Adrenoceptor expression was assessed in human HSC by RT-PCR and immunocytochemistry. Intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was studied in fura-2-loaded cells. Cell contraction was studied by assessing wrinkle formation and myosin light chain II (MLC II) phosphorylation. Cell proliferation and collagen-alpha1(I) expression were assessed by [3H]thymidine incorporation and quantitative PCR, respectively. NF-kappaB activation was assessed by luciferase reporter gene and p65 nuclear translocation. Chemokine secretion was assessed by ELISA. Normal human livers expressed alpha(1A)-adrenoceptors, which were markedly upregulated in livers with advanced fibrosis. Activated human HSC expressed alpha(1A)-adrenoceptors. NE induced multiple rapid [Ca2+]i oscillations (Ca2+ spikes). Prazosin (alpha1-blocker) completely prevented NE-induced Ca2+ spikes, whereas propranolol (nonspecific beta-blocker) partially attenuated this effect. NE caused phosphorylation of MLC II and cell contraction. In contrast, NE did not affect cell proliferation or collagen-alpha1(I) expression. Importantly, NE stimulated the secretion of inflammatory chemokines (RANTES and interleukin-8) in a dose-dependent manner. Prazosin blocked NE-induced chemokine secretion. NE stimulated NF-kappaB activation. BAY 11-7082, a specific NF-kappaB inhibitor, blocked NE-induced chemokine secretion. We conclude that NE stimulates NF-kappaB and induces cell contraction and proinflammatory effects in human HSC. Catecholamines may participate in the pathogenesis of portal hypertension and liver fibrosis by targeting HSC.
Photon-assisted dry etching of GaAs (1984)

UV radiation from an ArF laser has been used to perform large-area etching of single-crystal GaAs. The process is based on photochemical production of methyl or trifluoromethyl, and bromine radicals. The etching is anisotropic and features &lt;1 μm have been made.
Collisional Blockade in Microscopic Optical Dipole Traps (2002)

We analyze the operating regimes of a very small optical dipole trap, loaded from a magneto-optical trap, as a function of the atom loading rate, i.e., the number of atoms per second entering the dipole trap. We show that, when the dipole trap volume is small enough, a "collisional blockade" mechanism locks the average number of trapped atoms on the value 0.5 over a large range of loading rates. We also discuss the "weak loading" and "strong loading" regimes outside the blockade range, and we demonstrate experimentally the existence of these three regimes.
Comparative biochemistry of chondroitin sulphate–proteins of cartilage and notochord (1971)

Fragments that consisted mainly of two polysaccharide chains joined by a short polypeptide bridge (doublets) were prepared from chondroitin sulphate-proteins of lamprey, sturgeon, elasmobranch and ox connective tissues after hydrolysis with trypsin and chymotrypsin. Consideration of molecular parameters, compositions and behaviour on gel electrophoresis and density-gradient fractionation leads to a proposed parent structure for chondroitin sulphate-proteins. A single polypeptide chain of about 2000 amino acid residues contains alternating short and long repeating sequences. A short sequence consists of less than 10 amino acid residues with one N-terminal and one C-terminal serine residue, each of which carries a polysaccharide chain linked glycosidically to its hydroxyl group. This structure constitutes the doublet subunit. Some variation is introduced when the doublet subunit carries only a single polysaccharide chain. The long sequence contains about 35 amino acid residues and is subject to cleavage by trypsin and chymotrypsin. The main polypeptide is probably homologous in the vertebrate sub-phylum with strong conservation of structure suggested for the short sequence. However, polymorphism of polypeptide structures cannot be excluded.
Favorable long-term follow-up results over 6 years for response, survival, and safety with imatinib mesylate therapy in chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia after failure of interferon-α treatment (2007)

Imatinib mesylate, a targeted inhibitor of BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase, is the standard of care for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). A phase 2 trial of imatinib in late chronic-phase (CP) CML after interferon-alpha (IFNalpha) failure enrolled 532 patients, 454 with a confirmed diagnosis of CP CML. Median time from diagnosis was 34 months; median duration of imatinib treatment was 65 months. Cumulative best rates of major cytogenetic response (MCyR) and complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) were 67% and 57%, respectively. At the 5-year landmark, 184 (41%) of the 454 patients are in CCyR. At more than 6 years, 199 (44%) of the 454 patients remain on imatinib. Most responses occurred within 12 months of starting imatinib; however, some patients achieved initial MCyR and CCyR more than 5 years after imatinib initiation. Estimated rates of freedom from progression to accelerated phase (AP) and blastic phase (BP) and overall survival at 6 years were 61% and 76%, respectively. Both freedom from progression to AP/BP and overall survival (OS) were associated with cytogenetic response level at 12 months. No increase in rates of serious adverse events was observed with continuous use of imatinib for up to 6.5 years, compared with earlier time points. Imatinib continues to be an effective and safe therapy for patients with CP CML after failure of IFN.
Three-dimensional memory effect in fluorescent photosensitive glass activated by europium and cerium (1998)

The persistent extinction of fluorescence emission of Eu(3+) in glasses activated with europium and cerium is reported for the first time to the authors' knowledge. The glass samples containing Eu(3+) and Ce(3+) were initially colorless and transparent and exhibited intense emission peaks at 592 and 612 nm assigned to the (5)D(0)-(7)F(1, 2) transitions of Eu(3+). The complete extinction of the Eu(3+)-ion emission was obtained as an effect of multipulse excimer-UV-laser (lambda = 248 nm, tau(FWHM) >/= 20 ns) irradiation of the glass samples. Fluorescence microscopy, Mössbauer spectrometry, and electron spin resonance were applied for investigation of the modifications induced by the laser treatment. As a decisive proof of the extinction of fluorescence we succeeded in recording three-dimensional fluorescent photographic patterns within the activated samples.

Codemaps - Segment, Classify and Search Objects Locally (2013)

In this paper we aim for segmentation and classification of objects. We propose codemaps that are a joint formulation of the classification score and the local neighborhood it belongs to in the image. We obtain the codemap by reordering the encoding, pooling and classification steps over lattice elements. Other than existing linear decompositions who emphasize only the efficiency benefits for localized search, we make three novel contributions. As a preliminary, we provide a theoretical generalization of the sufficient mathematical conditions under which image encodings and classification becomes locally decomposable. As first novelty we introduce l2 normalization for arbitrarily shaped image regions, which is fast enough for semantic segmentation using our Fisher codemaps. Second, using the same lattice across images, we propose kernel pooling which embeds nonlinearities into codemaps for object classification by explicit or approximate feature mappings. Results demonstrate that l2 normalized Fisher codemaps improve the state-of-the-art in semantic segmentation for PASCAL VOC. For object classification the addition of nonlinearities brings us on par with the state-of-the-art, but is 3x faster. Because of the codemaps' inherent efficiency, we can reach significant speed-ups for localized search as well. We exploit the efficiency gain for our third novelty: object seg- ment retrieval using a single query image only.
An efficient algorithm for combining vector quantization and stochastic modeling for speaker-independent speech recognition (2005)

An algorithm for speaker-independent isolated/ continuous speech recognition based on stochastic modeling and vector quantization (VQ) techniques is presented. In this, the VQ technique is combined and integrated into the stochastic model such that it allows a nonparametric representation within the parametric stochastic model. The word models thus obtained are represented as a sequence of high-fidelity segmental sound units called "sound-kernels." The integrity of these models is verified by resynthesizing the words. Thus, the interaction between recognition and synthesis has been one of the main themes of this research to obtain improved recognition models. The paper also presents an improved version of a VQ design algorithm to obtain robust kernel codebooks. The overall performance of the algorithm is being evaluated with the NBS-TI multidialect connected digit data base, and preliminary results of this investigation are also reported.
