One approach to assess the security of embedded IoT devices is applying dynamic analysis such as fuzz testing their firmware in scale. To this end, existing approaches aim provide an emulation environment that mimics behavior real hardware/peripherals. Nonetheless, practice, can emulate only a small fraction images. For example, Firmadyne, state-of-the-art tool, run 183 (16.28%) 1,124 wireless router/IP-camera images we collected from top eight manufacturers. Such low success rate caused by...

The effects of various Cloisite nanoparticulate clays with different hydrophobicities on (80/20) polypropylene/polystyrene (PP/PS) blends were investigated using their linear and nonlinear rheological properties. In descending order hydrophobicity the four examined C20A > C10A C30B CNa+. Clays a wetting coefficient ωa between 1 −1, that is C10A, located at PP/PS polymer interfaces suppressed coalescence, while >1, CNa+, accumulated inside PS droplets increased viscosity ratios. As result,...

The deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregates and metal ions within senile plaques is a hallmark Alzheimer's disease (AD). Among the modifications observed in Aβ peptides, N-terminal truncation at Phe4, yielding Aβ4–x, highly prevalent AD-affected brains significantly alters Aβ's metal-binding aggregation profiles. Despite abundance Zn(II) plaques, its impact on toxicity Aβ4–x remains unexplored. Here, we report distinct behavior N-terminally truncated Aβ, specifically Aβ4–42, absence presence...

Developing chemical methodologies to directly modify harmful biomolecules affords the mitigation of their toxicity by persistent changes in properties and structures. Here we report compact photosensitizers composed anthraquinone (AQ) backbone that undergo excited-state intramolecular hydrogen transfer, effectively oxidize amyloidogenic peptides, and, subsequently, alter aggregation pathways. Density functional theory calculations showed appropriate position hydroxyl groups AQ consequent...
