Simultaneous and quantitative determination of anion biocides in soil by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

토양 중 음이온 바이오사이드인 chlorite, chlorate, cyanuric acid와 sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (Na-DBS)의 liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) 동시 분석방법을 개발하였다. Chlorite와 chlorate는 물로 추출하였으며, cyanuric acid와 Na-DBS는 0.25 mM ammonium formate를 함유한 20 mM formic acid와 acetonitrile (1:1) 이동상을 이용하여 추출하였다. 추출물은 필터 후 직접 LC-MS/MS로 주입하였다. 분석물질이 검출되지 않는 토양에 각 성분들을 첨가한 후 정도관리를 실시한 결과 검출한계는 chlorite 0.04 mg/kg, chlorate 0.04 mg/kg, cyanuric acid 0.27 mg/kg 그리고 Na-DBS의 경우는 0.05 mg/kg 이었다. 이 방법을 사용하여 우리나라 AI로 소독제를 많이 사용한 장소 40개 지역과 사용하지 않은 지역 10개 대조 지역의 토양을 분석한 결과 대조지역을 포함한 모든 조사지역에서 네 가지 음이온 모두 검출되지 않았다. Simultaneous analytical method has developed for the determination of anion biocides in soil by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Chlorite and chlorate in soil were extracted with pure water, and cyanuric acid and sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (Na-DBS) were extracted with mobile phase (0.25 mM ammonium formate in 20 mM formic acid : acetonitrile (1:1)). The extract was injected into the LC-MS/MS system after filtration. The method detection limits in this study were 0.04 mg/kg for chlorite, 0.04 mg/kg for chlorate, 0.27 mg/kg for cyanuric acid, and 0.05 mg/kg for Na-DBS, respectively. The method was applied to the analysis of 50 soil samples collected from 40 sites sprayed with biocides and 10 background sites. As a result, anion biocides were not detected in all sites.
Tools, Fertilizer or Cash? Exchange Asymmetries in Productive Assets

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

We used a field experiment to investigate exchange asymmetries in productive assets among poor rural respondents in Ethiopia. Farmers were randomly allocated two types of productive assets or cash, with a choice to keep the productive asset (cash) or exchange it for cash (productive asset). To introduce productive asset variation, a durable asset (farm tool) and a short-term input (fertilizer) were randomly allocated and combined with a random amount of cash. Loss aversion was proxied with a separate experiment and was used to assess the importance of endowment effect theory to explain exchange asymmetries. A greater exchange asymmetry was found for the more popular tool than for fertilizer. Loss aversion could explain a small but significant part of the exchange asymmetry in tools, but experience did not reduce the exchange asymmetry. Compared to the female respondents, the male respondents exhibited greater exchange asymmetries and more non-linear price responses with declining elasticities as prices increased. Key words: exchange asymmetry, endowment effect, loss aversion, factor markets, productive assets, input demand elasticities, field experiment. JEL codes:
SEXUAL CONFLICT AND CRYPTIC FEMALE CHOICE IN THE BLACK FIELD CRICKET, TELEOGRYLLUS COMMODUS

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The prevalence and evolutionary consequences of cryptic female choice (CFC) remain highly controversial, not least because the processes underlying its expression are often concealed within the female reproductive tract. However, even when female discrimination is relatively easy to observe, as in numerous insect species with externally attached spermatophores, it is often difficult to demonstrate directional CFC for certain male phenotypes over others. Using a biological assay to separate male crickets into attractive or unattractive categories, we demonstrate that females strongly discriminate against unattractive males by removing their spermatophores before insemination can be completed. This results in significantly more sperm being transferred by attractive males than unattractive males. Males respond to CFC by mate guarding females after copulation, which increases the spermatophore retention of both attractive and unattractive males. Interestingly, unattractive males who suffered earlier interruption of sperm transfer benefited more from mate guarding, and they guarded females more vigilantly than attractive males. Our results suggest that postcopulatory mate guarding has evolved via sexual conflict over insemination times rather than through genetic benefits of biasing paternity toward vigorous males, as has been previously suggested.

Higher-order boundary layers and regularity for Stokes systems over rough boundaries

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

In this paper, we study the large-scale boundary regularity for the Stokes system in periodically oscillating John domains. Our main contribution is the construction of boundary layer correctors of arbitrary order. This is a significant generalization of the known results restricted to the first and second orders. As an application, we prove the large-scale regularity estimate, as well as a Liouville theorem, of arbitrary order for the Stokes system. Our results are also related to higher-order boundary layer tails and wall laws in viscous fluids over rough boundaries.

The hidden factor: accounting for covariate effects in power and sample size computation for a binary trait

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Abstract Motivation Accurate power and sample size estimation is crucial to the design and analysis of genetic association studies. When analyzing a binary trait via logistic regression, important covariates such as age and sex are typically included in the model. However, their effects are rarely properly considered in power or sample size computation during study planning. Unlike when analyzing a continuous trait, the power of association testing between a binary trait and a genetic variant depends, explicitly, on covariate effects, even under the assumption of gene–environment independence. Earlier work recognizes this hidden factor but the implemented methods are not flexible. We thus propose and implement a generalized method for estimating power and sample size for (discovery or replication) association studies of binary traits that (i) accommodates different types of nongenetic covariates E, (ii) deals with different types of G–E relationships, and (iii) is computationally efficient. Results Extensive simulation studies show that the proposed method is accurate and computationally efficient for both prospective and retrospective sampling designs with various covariate structures. A proof-of-principle application focused on the understudied African sample in the UK Biobank data. Results show that, in contrast to studying the continuous blood pressure trait, when analyzing the binary hypertension trait ignoring covariate effects of age and sex leads to overestimated power and underestimated replication sample size. Availability and implementation The simulated datasets can be found on the online web-page of this manuscript, and the UK Biobank application data can be accessed at https://www.ukbiobank.ac.uk. The R package SPCompute that implements the proposed method is available at CRAN. The genome-wide association studies are carried out using the software PLINK 2.0 [Purcell et al. (Plink: a tool set for whole-genome association and population-based linkage analyses. Am J Hum Genet 2007;81:559–75.)].
Studies on 2-cyclic robotic scheduling

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

We elaborate in this article on a quadratic algorithm for a particular case of the 2-cyclic robotic scheduling problem, namely the case when at most two parts go through the production line at all times; or, what is the same, when the lifetime of the part is shorter than the duration of the cycle. This study is relevant since for the general case the best known algorithms are quintic.
Self-consistent-field method and τ-functional method on group manifold in soliton theory. II. Laurent coefficients of soliton solutions for sln and for sun

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

To go beyond perturbative method in terms of variables of collective motion, using infinite-dimensional fermions, we have aimed to construct the self-consistent-field (SCF) theory, i.e., time dependent Hartree-Fock theory on associative affine Kac-Moody algebras along the soliton theory. In this paper, toward such an ultimate goal we will reconstruct a theoretical frame for a υ (external parameter)-dependent SCF method to describe more precisely the dynamics on the infinite-dimensional fermion Fock space. An infinite-dimensional fermion operator is introduced through Laurent expansion of finite-dimensional fermion operators with respect to degrees of freedom of the fermions related to a υ-dependent and a Υ-periodic potential. As an illustration, we derive explicit expressions for the Laurent coefficients of soliton solutions for sl̂n and for sûn on infinite-dimensional Grassmannian. The associative affine Kac-Moody algebras play a crucial role to determine the dynamics on the infinite-dimensional fermion Fock space.
Ambulation in labour.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

In a randomised prospective study of 68 women in spontaneous labour half were allocated to an ambulant group and half to a recumbent group. The duration of labour was significantly shorter, the need for analgesia significantly less, and the incidence of fetal heart abnormalities significantly smaller in the ambulant group than in the recumbent group. Apgar scores at one and five minutes were also significantly greater in the ambulant group. More patients in the recumbent group required augmentations with oxytocic drugs. There was no statistically significant difference in the third stage loss in the two groups. Ambulation in labour should be encouraged: it may bring human benefits while allowing the advantages of hospital supervision.
Pharmacokinetic Interaction in Rabbits between a New Anticonvulsant, DL-3-Hydroxy-3-ethyl-3-phenylpropionamide, and Phenytoin

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Abstract The effect of phenytoin on the disposition of DL-3-hydroxy-3-ethyl-3-phenylpropionamide (HEPP) has been studied in New Zealand white rabbits. Plasma HEPP levels decreased when the drug was administered with phenytoin. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve was reduced by 56.49% (from 43.23 ± 7.0 to 18.81 ± 2.03 μg h mL−1), the elimination half-life was also significantly (P&lt;0.01) reduced (from 2.68 ± 0.35 to 1.04 ± 0.07 h) and the clearance was increased (from 0.35 to 0.81 L h−1 kg−1). In-vitro protein binding to bovine serum albumin (BSA) and plasma was evaluated by equilibrium dialysis. Plasma protein binding was low (between 33.69 and 37.43% at concentrations ranging from 6.25 to 100 μg mL−1). The compound binds preferentially to albumin with an association constant (Ka) of 3.81 times 103 M−1 at 37°C. The results suggest a pharmacokinetic interaction between phenytoin and HEPP, probably on the drug-metabolizing enzyme system in the liver.

Efficient Targeting of Protein Antigen to the Dendritic Cell Receptor DEC-205 in the Steady State Leads to Antigen Presentation on Major Histocompatibility Complex Class I Products and Peripheral CD8+ T Cell Tolerance

Field: Immunology and Microbiology (Life Sciences)

To identify endocytic receptors that allow dendritic cells (DCs) to capture and present antigens on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I products in vivo, we evaluated DEC-205, which is abundant on DCs in lymphoid tissues. Ovalbumin (OVA) protein, when chemically coupled to monoclonal αDEC-205 antibody, was presented by CD11c+ lymph node DCs, but not by CD11c− cells, to OVA-specific, CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Receptor-mediated presentation was at least 400 times more efficient than unconjugated OVA and, for MHC class I, the DCs had to express transporter of antigenic peptides (TAP) transporters. When αDEC-205:OVA was injected subcutaneously, OVA protein was identified over a 4–48 h period in DCs, primarily in the lymph nodes draining the injection site. In vivo, the OVA protein was selectively presented by DCs to TCR transgenic CD8+ cells, again at least 400 times more effectively than soluble OVA and in a TAP-dependent fashion. Targeting of αDEC-205:OVA to DCs in the steady state initially induced 4–7 cycles of T cell division, but the T cells were then deleted and the mice became specifically unresponsive to rechallenge with OVA in complete Freund's adjuvant. In contrast, simultaneous delivery of a DC maturation stimulus via CD40, together with αDEC-205:OVA, induced strong immunity. The CD8+ T cells responding in the presence of agonistic αCD40 antibody produced large amounts of interleukin 2 and interferon γ, acquired cytolytic function in vivo, emigrated in large numbers to the lung, and responded vigorously to OVA rechallenge. Therefore, DEC-205 provides an efficient receptor-based mechanism for DCs to process proteins for MHC class I presentation in vivo, leading to tolerance in the steady state and immunity after DC maturation.

Governors and the Progressive Movement

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

By the late 1800s many American states were overpowered by private interests. Corporations were able to dominate state legislatures, which passed laws favorable to business interests. Party bosses often controlled the processes of candidate nomination and focused more on building loyalty to the party than enacting responsive public policy. Problems such as infrastructure were not dealt with. Many sensed that the concerns of the general public did not play a significant role in government decision making. People felt considerable frustration with the performance of state governments. The Progressive movement emerged as a response to these concerns. A central concern of the movement was reforming the political process to make it more accessible and responsive to the public. From 1890 through 1920, this movement played a major role in changing the political process in many states. A major issue was whether existing politicians would provide enough support to make changes. State legislatures had reputations as being comfortable with being dominated by private interests. Governors became significant leaders in enacting change. Many made reforming government a central focus during their time in office, and many were able to make significant changes. This book provides a detailed review of the specific actions that governors took to change public policy and political processes. Governors pressured state legislatures to spend more money on education, highways, health, corrections, and social welfare. States enacted the direct primary as a means of selecting candidates, reducing the power of party bosses. They established civil service systems for filling government positions, reducing the extent of patronage and the power of party leaders. The initiative and referendum increased voters’ ability to initiate policy changes or react to proposed policies. The movement spurred more efforts to regulate railroads and other large corporations. The reformers also attempted to regulate the morals of the public by banning alcohol and limiting gambling and prostitution.
Concentrations of immune marker in newborn dried blood spots and early childhood development: Results from the Upstate KIDS Study

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Background Evidence shows cytokine dysregulation in children with developmental disabilities. The association between immune activity during the perinatal period and child development is less clear. Methods We examined the relationship between newborn concentrations of immune markers and child development. Within Upstate KIDS , a population‐based birth cohort (2008‐2010, upstate New York), we assayed immune markers, which are postulated to have neuro‐modulatory effects, in newborn dried blood spots ( NDBS , n = 3038). Mothers completed the Ages & Stages Questionnaire© ( ASQ ) for their children repeatedly through age 36 months. At 30 and 36 months, mothers also reported whether their children received any developmental services. We used generalised linear mixed models adjusted for maternal and child characteristics to test associations. Results Sixteen immune markers were associated with failing ASQ in unadjusted models. After full adjustment (for gestational age, mode of delivery, parity, pregnancy smoking, etc.), we observed that higher levels of 4 markers, including platelet‐derived growth factor‐ AA ( PDGF ‐ AA , OR 0.77, 95% CI 0.67, 0.89), plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 ( OR 0.80, 95% CI 0.68, 0.94), stromal cell derived factor‐1 ( OR 0.85, 95% CI 0.73, 0.98), and macrophage inflammatory protein‐1beta ( OR 0.87, 95% CI 0.77, 0.98) were associated with lower odds of ASQ failure. The associations did not exist if correction for multiple comparisons was performed, except for PDGF ‐ AA . Analyses with developmental service use revealed similar null findings. Conclusions Immune marker concentrations in NDBS may not be associated with developmental delay in the general population. Newborn concentrations of growth factor PDGF ‐ AA may be protective of developmental delay in childhood.
Best practices and ICT tools in migration-related work: a survey of first-line practitioners

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This data base was created from responses to a survey designed and carried out by the project PERCEPTIONS, a European Union Horizon 2020 funded project (Grant Agreement No. 833870). The project examined how Europe and the EU are seen by people who have immigrated there or intend to do so. It examined what perceptions of Europe exist among migrants, refugees and asylum seekers, how they are formed, whether they correspond to reality and how they influence migration decisions. It also examined how the flow of information could be distorted and whether inaccurate information could lead to a threat to the security of migrants (e.g. through dangerous border crossings) or even national security (e.g. through radicalisation). The survey was carried out with first-line practitioners, defined as professionals who have contact with migrants in their work. It was distributed between March and April 2022 and received 755 responses. Participants could take the survey in 10 languages (Albanian, Arabic, Bulgarian, Dutch, English, French, German, Greek, Italian, and Spanish) and responses were received from 17 different countries (Albania, Algeria, Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Egypt, Germany, Greece, Italy, Kosovo, Latvia, the Netherlands, Spain, Tunisia, and the United Kingdom). The survey aimed to investigate practitioners’ assessments of best practices in migration-related work. More specifically, practitioners were asked to share their attitudes toward potential strategies for addressing the issue of misinformation amongst migrants and criteria through which to assess the success of potential best practices, as well as their evaluations of existing Information Communication Technology (ICT) tools in migration-related work. A report summarising the results of the survey can be accessed here.
Blind Source Separation Based on a Beamformer Array and Time Frequency Binary Masking

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

This paper deals with a new technique for blind source separation (BSS) from convolutive mixtures. We present a three-stage separation system employing time-frequency binary masking, beamforming and a non-linear post processing technique. The experiments show that this system outperforms conventional time-frequency binary masking (TFBM) in both (over-)determined and underdetermined cases. Moreover it removes the musical noise and reduces interference in time-frequency slots extracted by TFBM.
