Influenza is an infectious disease caused by the influenza virus, and each year many people suffer from this disease. Hemagglutinin (HA) in membrane of type A viruses recognizes sialylglycoconjugate receptors on host cell surface at initial step infection process; consequently, HA inhibitors are considered potential candidates for antiviral drugs. We identified peptides that bind to receptor-binding sites through a multiple serial selection phage-displayed random peptide libraries. Using H1...

To determine the metal ion and vitamin in vitro adsorption profile of sevelamer hydrochloride (sevelamer-HCl) colestilan(INN)/colestimide(JAN), a novel ion-exchange resin being developed as phosphate binder for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients undergoing hemodialysis, ions (iron, cobalt, copper zinc) vitamins (B6, B12, C, K folic acid) essential hematopoiesis/blood coagulation was assessed.Mixtures each (colestilan or sevelamer-HCl, 4 mg/ml) (Fe(III), Fe(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), 1...

Abstract Many postmenopausal women have osteopenia, a condition characterized by loss of bone mineral density (BMD) that is not as severe in osteoporosis. The objective this study was to estimate the cost-effectiveness alendronate prevent fractures osteopenic without history fracture Japan. An individual simulation model developed predict lifetime costs and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) 5 preventive therapy versus no therapy. risk hip vertebral associated with age BMD derived from...

Solvent-free oxidative coupling polymerization of 3-hexylthiophene using FeCl3 oxidant was conducted to synthesize poly(3-hexylthiophene) grains. Optical and scanning electron microscopy studies confirmed production submillimeter-sized atypical grains with rough surfaces. Solubility test, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance indicated the branching cross-linking poly(3-hexylthiophene). Elemental microanalysis X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy that were doped...

Infrared emission spectra of oleic, linoleic, linolenic, and stearic acids, methyl linolenate, on the surfaces steel plates were measured at 100, 150 200° from 5 to 10 microns. Reactions occur produce complex iron soaps.

A novel two-step preparation of a silica nanofluid (Si-NF) with potential for light oil recovery is herein presented. It was observed that Si-NF, prepared by dispersing nanoparticles (Si-NPs) in poly(vinyl alcohol) (1%) under carbon dioxide gas bubbling, stable 30 days at temperature as high 55 °C without any visible sedimentation. Unstable Si-NFs formed siliceous gels whose strength depends on Si-NP load. The spectral characterization revealed consisted silanols, carbonyls, and alcohols. As...

ALnO3 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba; Ln Ce, Pr, Tb) were synthesized as environmentally friendly inorganic yellow pigments by a conventional solid state reaction. SrCeO3, BaCeO3, BaPrO3, SrTbO3 and BaTbO3 obtained in single phase form. Among them, the color of bright yellow, because strong optical absorption blue light region. The yellowness values expressed coordinate comparable to those praseodymium (ZrSiO4:Pr) bismuth vanadate (BiVO4), respectively. Furthermore, is more greenish than that ZrSiO4:Pr,...

Abstract Vitamin A levels in fattening Japanese Black cattle affect meat quality; therefore, it is important to monitor serum retinol concentrations. To simplify and accelerate the evaluation of concentrations cattle, we developed a new predictive method using excitation-emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectrophotometry. For analytical comparison, concentration was also measured conventional HPLC method. We examined excitation (Ex) emission (Em) wavelengths serum, which were 250–450...

We examined the effects of heptamethoxyflavone (HMF), a citrus flavonoid on inflammatory bone resorption. HMF suppressed osteoclast formation and PGE2 production induced by IL-1. In mouse calvarial organ cultures, attenuated resorption elicited LPS. in mandibular alveolar bone. may protect against loss such as periodontal disease.

This paper describes the piezoresistance behavior in CFRP cross-ply laminates with transverse cracking loaded tension. The resistance change due to and gage factor (the rate of per mechanical strain) for each crack density were experimentally measured during loading/unloading cycles. change-strain curves unloading/ reloading processes show bilinear where two factors are defined as slopes curve. residual after full unloading increases almost linearly strain while do not always increase...

東京大学付属演習林樹芸研究所にて植栽されたユーカリ6樹種を用いて,年半径成長量,成長応力解放ひずみ,伐採直後の心割れ率,気乾密度,ミクロフィブリル傾角を測定し,樹種間の比較を行った。成長量は個体によるばらつきが大きかった。成長応力解放ひずみと心割れ率は,E.signata,E.andreana,E.piperitaの3樹種で大きな値を持つ個体があった。気乾密度,ミクロフィブリル傾角は樹種間で有意な差がみられた。成長が速く,密度も高く,伐採後の割れが小さいと考えられるE.smithiiがもっとも木材利用の観点から有力であると考えた。

Abstract Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) grains were synthesized by solvent-free chemical oxidative polymerization in one-step and one-pot manner. The resulting PEDOT had atypical shapes with a volume-average diameter of 57 ± 45 µm showed an electrical conductivity 1.9 × 10−3 S cm−1. Furthermore, it was clarified that the light-to-heat photothermal property.

We develop a gallium arsenide (GaAs) photonic crystal nanocavity device capable of capturing and releasing pulse light by dynamic control the Q factor through free carrier photoexcitation. Unlike silicon-based devices where performance this optical is limited absorption from carriers with nanosecond-order lifetimes, short lifetime (∼ 7 ps) our equivalent GaAs enables negligible losses. capture 4 ps briefly cycling 40,000 to 7900 back just as couples confirm that captured energy can be...
