Thiol-Surface-Engineered Cellulose Nanocrystals in Favor of Copper Ion Uptake

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Cellulose, the most abundant natural polymer on earth, has recently gained attention for a large spectrum of applications. At a nanoscale, nanocelluloses (mainly involving cellulose nanocrystals or cellulose nanofibrils) possess many predominant features, such as highly thermal and mechanical stability, renewability, biodegradability and non-toxicity. More importantly, the surface modification of such nanocelluloses can be efficiently obtained based on the native surface hydroxyl groups, acting as metal ions chelators. Taking into account this fact, in the present work, the sequential process involving chemical hydrolysis of cellulose and autocatalytic esterification using thioglycolic acid was performed to obtain thiol-functionalized cellulose nanocrystals. The change in chemical compositions was attributed to thiol-functionalized groups and explored via the degree of substitution using a back titration method, X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. Cellulose nanocrystals were spherical in shape and ca. 50 nm in diameter as observed via transmission electron microscopy. The adsorption behavior of such a nanomaterial toward divalent copper ions from an aqueous solution was also assessed via isotherm and kinetic studies, elucidating a chemisorption mechanism (ion exchange, metal chelation and electrostatic force) and processing its operational parameters. In contrast to an inactive configure of unmodified cellulose, the maximum adsorption capacity of thiol-functionalized cellulose nanocrystals toward divalent copper ions from an aqueous solution was 4.244 mg g−1 at a pH of 5 and at room temperature.
A PREFERMENT PLATFORM FOR IMPLEMENTING SECURITY MECHANISM FOR AUTOMOTIVE CAN BUS

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The design of cryptographic mechanisms in automotive systems has been a major focus over the last ten years as the increase of cyber attacks against in-vehicle networks.The integration of these protocols into CAN bus networks is an efficient solution for leaving security level, but features of CAN bus make the performance requirements within cryptographic schemes very challenging.In the literature most of academic researches focused on designing security mechanisms for the CAN bus.Yet, very few research proposals are interested in analyzing performances requirements by using cryptographic protocols.In this paper, we investigate effects of implementing cryptographic approaches on performance by proposing an analysis methodology for implementing cryptographic approach in CAN bus communication and measuring real-time performances.Next, we propose our system which presents a tool for determining the impact of implementing of cryptographic solutions.On the other hand we have proposed an intrusion detection system using the same platform.Our tool allows the implementation of any security strategy as well as the real-time performance analysis of CAN network.
Effect of temperature gradient on plasma sheath

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

In the plasma sheath the electron current is severely limited by a retarding electrostatic potential, which implies that only fast plasma electrons reach the material surface. These fast electrons have a much longer mean free path than thermal electrons and consequently their last collision will have occurred well away from the surface. If the temperature gradient is such that the temperature at these last collisions is different from that at the surface, the sheath potential will be modified. This effect can lead to large modifications of the sheath potential and possibly also to substantial errors in the interpretation of probe signals.

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

ABSTRACT Background More people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF) are surviving to adulthood and considering their reproductive futures starting in the teen years. MyVoice:CF is a web‐based reproductive health decision support tool for adult female PwCF. Given the evolving cystic fibrosis (CF) population, we explored the role of MyVoice:CF and further reproductive health resources for adolescent female PwCF. Methods We conducted qualitative interviews with female adolescent and young adult (AYA) PwCF between age 13–26 years and their caregivers regarding their reproductive health experiences, the acceptability and usability of MyVoice:CF , and the desired additional resources for female AYA PwCF. We recorded and transcribed all interviews and analyzed them thematically using an inductive coding approach. Results We interviewed 16 AYAs and 11 caregivers. Key themes included: (1) AYA females with CF are considering their reproductive health and are curious about how CF will affect their future reproductive goals; (2) Participants found MyVoice:CF informative, user‐friendly, and relevant for adolescents; (3) Suggested additions include information about puberty, healthy relationships, and learning how to self‐advocate in interpersonal and medical settings; (4) AYA participants were particularly interested in hearing about reproductive health experiences of peers and being able to use MyVoice:CF to connect with other PwCF; (5) Participants shared the importance of open parent‐child conversations regarding reproductive health and the use of MyVoice:CF to supplement these discussions. Conclusion Participants found MyVoice:CF acceptable and usable for adolescent female PwCF and as a tool to initiate conversations between AYAs, caregivers, and providers.

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between the emotional intelligence levels and job satisfaction of the managers and to carry out a research in this sense. In the research, the relationship of emotional intelligence abilities in managers with their own job satisfaction was analyzed. The main population of the study included the managers in different grades of small, medium, and large scale entities from different sectors in Istanbul. The basic purpose of the study was to reveal the relationship between the emotional intelligence dimensions the managers had and their own job satisfaction. In this sense, it was analyzed the effect of emotional intelligence abilities managers had upon their own job satisfaction, and whether there was a relationship between them or not. The field research was carried out with reference to the theoretical framework revealed after the literature review. In the methodology section of the study, the findings related to the research and the interpretations were included with the analyses. It was revealed depending upon the correlation and regression analyses performed within the scope of the research that interpersonal relationships factor had an effect upon the job satisfaction.
Prevalence of Bacteriological Isolates Recovered from Faecal Sample of Domestic Cats

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

The study was performed for prevalence of bacteriological isolates recovered from faecal samples of domestic cats and their antibiotic sensitivity pattern. Total thirty rectal swabs were collected from Baroda for bacteriological isolation. The overall prevalence of bacteria was 93.33% (28). The prevalence of E. coli, Streptococcus spp., Staphylococcus spp., gram positive bacilli, gram negative coccobacilli and gram positive coccobacilli were 36.67% (11), 23.33% (7), 10.00% (3), 10.00% (3), 10.00% (3) and 03.33% (1) respectively. In-vitro antibiotic sensitivity pattern of all the bacterial isolates recovered from faecal samples of domestic cats revealed that the isolates were more sensitive to Gentamicin (71.43%) followed by Co-trimoxazole (57.14%), Colistin (33.33%), Enrofloxacin and Amoxyclav (28.57% each), Tetracycline (19.05%) and Ampicillin (14.29%).
Muscarinic receptor-mediated induction of actin-driven lamellar protrusions in neuroblastoma cell somata and growth cones. Involvement of protein kinase C.

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

In SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells, addition of acetylcholine or carbachol rapidly induces a transient protrusion of lamellipodia. The protrusions appear after a delay of 30 sec and persist for a period of about 5 min at the margins of cell somata and at the distal parts of cell processes. They are caused by a strikingly increased, cytochalasin B-sensitive assembly of actin at the cell periphery. They often detach from the substrate, retracting and protruding again. In retinoic acid-induced neuronally differentiated cells, this initialized protrusive activity is restricted to growth cones. d-Tubocurarine does not influence, but atropine totally inhibits the cholinergic induction of the actin-driven protrusions, suggesting that a muscarinic receptor-mediated activation of the phosphoinositol signaling pathway is involved. Depolarization by increase of the potassium concentration and ionophore-mediated Ca(2+)-influx are ineffective to trigger the protrusive and ruffling activity. An identical cytochalasin B-sensitive actin-driven response is caused by treating of the cells with the protein kinase C (PKC) activator 12-myristate-13-acetate. In this case, however, lamellar protrusions are formed after a delay of at least 3 min and are maintained for several days. Incubating the cells with the protein kinase C inhibitor bisindolylmaleide or staurosporine inhibits both the muscarinic receptor-mediated and phorbolester-mediated actin-driven response, suggesting that activated PKC plays a crucial role.

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

A general and simple two step synthesis of 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoro-2-alkenes is presented. The key step is the rearrangement-conversion of 1,1,2-trifluoro-1-alken-3-ols under the influence of hydrogen fluoride/tetrahydrofuran (5:1) as a fluorinating medium.
General Drag Coefficient for Flow over Spherical Particles

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

A generalized physics-based expression for the drag coefficient of spherical particles moving in a fluid is developed. The proposed correlation incorporates essential rarefied effects, low-speed hydrodynamics, and shock-wave physics to accurately model the particle-drag force for a wide range of Mach and Knudsen numbers (and therefore Reynolds number). Owing to the basis of the derivation in physics-based scaling laws, the proposed correlation embeds gas-specific properties and has explicit dependence on the ratio of specific heat capacities. The correlation is applicable for arbitrary particle relative velocity, particle diameter, gas pressure, gas temperature, and surface temperature. Compared with existing drag models, the correlation is shown to more accurately reproduce a wide range of experimental data. Finally, the new correlation is applied to simulate particle trajectories in high-speed dusty flows, relevant to a spacecraft entering the Martian atmosphere. The enhanced surface heat flux due to particle impact is found to be sensitive to the particle drag model.

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

오차드그래스의 최적 조직배양조건을 확립하기 위하여 8가지 품종의 성숙종자로부터 배발생 캘러스 유도 및 캘러스로부터의 식물체 재분화 효율을 조사하였다. 4주 동안 배양한 종자로부터 캘러스 유도율은 Frontier, Roughrider, 93E, Frode, Potomac, Ambassador, Hapsung 2, Amba 순으로 높은 캘러스 유도율을 보였고 식물체로의 재분화율은 Roughrider, Frontier, Potomac, Frode, Amba, Hapsung2, 93E, Ambassador 순으로 나타났다. 전체적으로는 캘러스 유도율이 높은 품종이 식물체 재분화율도 높은 경향을 나타내었다. 본 연구를 통하여 밝혀진 캘러스 유도와 식물체 재분화율이 우수한 품종은 분자육종을 통한 신품종 오차드그래스의 개발에 유용하게 이용될 수 있을 것이다. In order to investigate the effects of genetic variations of orchardgrass in tissue culture response, calli were induced from mature seeds of eight varieties, 'Hapsung 2', '93E', 'Amba', 'Ambassdor', 'Frode', 'Frontier', 'Potomac' and 'Roughrider', and plant regeneration frequency was compared. Significant differences were observed among the varieties in both callus induction and plant regeneration. Callus induction rate of viable seeds varied from 24.3% to 71.7%. Plant regeneration frequency ranged from 76.6% to 29.7%. 'Roughrider' varieties showed higher regenerability with the frequency of 76.6%. These results can be used not only to provide additional improvements in the plant regeneration frequency from transgenic callus, but also useful for molecular breeding of orchardgrass through genetic transformation.

MACE: Model Agnostic Concept Extractor for Explaining Image Classification Networks

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Deep convolutional networks have been quite successful at various image classification tasks. The current methods to explain the predictions of a pre-trained model rely on gradient information, often resulting in saliency maps that focus on the foreground object as a whole. However, humans typically reason by dissecting an image and pointing out the presence of smaller concepts. The final output is often an aggregation of the presence or absence of these smaller concepts. In this work, we propose MACE: a Model Agnostic Concept Extractor, which can explain the working of a convolutional network through smaller concepts. The MACE framework dissects the feature maps generated by a convolution network for an image to extract concept based prototypical explanations. Further, it estimates the relevance of the extracted concepts to the pre-trained model's predictions, a critical aspect required for explaining the individual class predictions, missing in existing approaches. We validate our framework using VGG16 and ResNet50 CNN architectures, and on datasets like Animals With Attributes 2 (AWA2) and Places365. Our experiments demonstrate that the concepts extracted by the MACE framework increase the human interpretability of the explanations, and are faithful to the underlying pre-trained black-box model.
The Kock continent ileostomy.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Over a four and one-half year period, we have performed 100 Kock continent ileostomies with one nonpouch-related mortality. The large majority of these operations have been conversions of existing conventional ileostomies. Modifications in the surgical technique have gradually lowered the complication rate, and postoperative revisions are now required less frequently than for conventional ileostomies. Slippage of the nipple valve, the most troublesome complication of the Kock pouch operation, is currently seen in 4.1 per cent of the patients. Eversions of the nipple valve have been eliminated, and fistulas are now seen rarely. The so-called pouchitis, a postoperative complication noted in 10 per cent of the patients, is usually well controlled with metronidazole. Kock pouches performed upon patients in whom the original diagnosis was Crohn's ileocolitis have been followed by a high incidence of postoperative fistulas, but patients with Crohn's colitis have thus far fared as well as patients with ulcerative colitis. The over-all success rate for the Kock pouch operation in this series of patients is 97 per cent.
New evidence of the validity of purchasing power parity from Jordan

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Abstract Most empirical studies on purchasing power parity (PPP) have focused on developed countries rather than developing countries. This study tests PPP in Jordan. Different unit root tests and three different base countries are used to determine if the validity of PPP is influenced by the type of test and/or the base country. The results show that PPP in Jordan is not sensitive to the choice of base country but is influenced by test type.
Parallel and convergent evolution in genes underlying seasonal migration

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract Seasonal migration has fascinated scientists and natural historians for centuries. While the genetic basis of migration has been widely studied across different taxa, there is little consensus regarding which genomic regions play a role in the ability to migrate and whether they are similar across species. Here, we examine the genetic basis of intraspecific variation within and between distinct migratory phenotypes in a songbird. We focus on the Common Yellowthroat (Geothlypis trichas) as a model system because the polyphyletic origin of eastern and western clades across North America provides a strong framework for understanding the extent to which there has been parallel or convergent evolution in the genes associated with migratory behavior. First, we investigate genome-wide population genetic structure in the Common Yellowthroat in 196 individuals collected from 22 locations across breeding range. Then, to identify candidate genes involved in seasonal migration, we identify signals of putative selection in replicate comparisons between resident and migratory phenotypes within and between eastern and western clades. Overall, we find wide-spread support for parallel evolution at the genic level, particularly in genes that mediate biological timekeeping. However, we find little evidence of parallelism at the individual SNP level, supporting the idea that there are multiple genetic pathways involved in the modulation of migration.
The Golden Age of Pragmatic Socialism: Wisconsin Socialists at the State Level, 1919–37

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract Throughout the 1920s and early 1930s, Socialists in Wisconsin experienced a “golden age” of political successes in the state legislature. Whereas the 1920s are commonly seen as a period of socialist decline, Wisconsin Socialists entered the decade with a renewed sense of optimism. Following World War I, the Wisconsin Democratic Party collapsed as a viable political option and the Wisconsin Socialist Party found itself the second most powerful party behind the Republican Party. Wisconsin Socialists took a pragmatic approach to legislative debates and allied with progressive Republicans to defeat conservative opposition. Socialists were vital to progressive reform prior to World War I; however, the Socialist-Progressive alliance reached its full potential in the 1920s. From 1919–31, the Wisconsin legislature passed 295 Socialist-authored pieces of legislation ranging from labor demands, public utilities, and criminal justice reform. Many of the proposals resulted from negotiations between the Socialist and Progressive caucuses. The success of the Wisconsin Socialists—and their alliance with progressive Republicans—suggests that at least in some places the Progressive Era extended into the 1920s.
