This report represents the conclusions of a Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee convened to evaluate safety various food additives, including flavouring agents, with view recommending acceptable daily intakes (ADIs) and preparing specifications for identity purity. The also evaluated risk posed by two contaminants, aim advising on management options purpose public health protection. first part contains general discussion principles governing toxicological evaluation assessment intake additives...
It has been suggested that the well-known cultural differences in interdependence across cultures are linked to economic activities, such as farming. However, underlying processes of how psychological tendencies shared among people a society not sufficiently investigated. This article addresses multilevel characteristics people. We focus on collective activities go beyond individual's personal activities. Multilevel analyses large-scale survey (residents Japanese communities, N = 7,295) 408...
Empathy is a multi-dimensional concept with emotional and cognitive components. The Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI) scale of empathic traits. Although some researchers have attempted to translate the IRI into Japanese, these translated scales had limitations content construct validity, measurement invariance. We therefore attempt overcome by developing new Japanese version (IRI-J). used three approaches assess validity invariance IRI-J. In Study 1, was tested using back-translation,...
Five acetic acid-sensitive mutants of Acetobacter aceti subsp. no. 1023 were isolated by mutagenesis with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine. Three recombinant plasmids that complemented the mutations from a gene bank chromosome DNA parental strain constructed in Escherichia coli using cosmid vector pMVC1. One these (pAR1611), carrying about 30-kilobase-pair (kb) fragment conferred acid resistance to all five mutants, was further analyzed. Subcloning experiments indicated 8.3-kb sufficient...
Prosocial behavior consists of a cost to the actor and benefit others. Previous studies have shown that prosocial actors generally receive positive social evaluations from observers. However, it is unknown how each component (i.e., benefit) influences two dimensions person perception warmth competence). Thus, three investigated independent effects on perceived competence actor. In Study 1, participants read series vignettes about protagonist incurring another individual rated protagonist....
Robot localization and navigation is one of the fundamental issues involved in robotics. The sewer environment contains only few local features such as manholes, pipe joints inlets that are usable landmarks for localization. In order to find an autonomous inspection robot's way a specified goal (manhole), it has solve landmark detection problem. This research describes how new mobile laser scanner can be employed robust fast detection. methodology proved with real time data from prototype...
α-(2,3)-Sialylated biantennary and triantennary oligosaccharides were enzymatically prepared from pyridyl-2-amino-oligosaccharides with terminal Gal residues, using an α-(2,3)-specific trans-sialidase Trypanosoma cruzi (Lee, K. B., Lee, Y. C. (1994) Anal. Biochem. 216, 358-364). From the pyridyl-2-amino-derivatives of neutral α-(2,6)-monosialylated human fibrinogen, 5 different sialyl obtained. two asialo-triantennary fetuin, 35 The transferred sialic acids effectively indiscriminately to...
The terminal oxidase for ethanol oxidation in Acetobacter aceti was purified as a complex consisting of four subunits (subunits I, II, III, and IV) with molecular masses 72, 34, 21, 13 kDa, respectively. Spectrophotometric analysis catalytic properties determined the enzyme showed that it belonged to family cytochrome a1 (ba)-type ubiquinol oxidases. A polymerase chain reaction two oligonucleotides designed amino acid sequences are conserved subunit I aa3-type c oxidases from various origins...
Empathy and mindfulness are currently major topics of scientific interest. Although it is well-known that mindfulness—typically as an outcome related to meditation—generates empathy at the state level, only a small number studies have documented trait (i.e., personality) level association between empathy. Furthermore, underlying mechanisms (subcomponents mediator variables) support this remain unclear. Thus, here, with focus on we investigated relationships among multiple subcomponents...
A method for deriving the length of carbon nanotube (CNT) in field emission arrays is proposed. Unlike direct observation using a microscope, this gathers information from functional measurements. Electron characteristics CNT’s printed on glass substrate were measured diode configuration. The macroscopic part voltage conversion factor β was obtained relationship between slope and intercept Fowler-Nordheim plot, also modeling electrodes. CNT derived comparing two values β. estimated agrees with
Work function of low index crystal facet tungsten was evaluated by measuring field emission characteristics using a probe hole system. Unlike the conventional method, authors derived work through analysis relationship between slope and intercept Fowler-Nordheim plot, which we call Seppen-Katamuki analysis. Measurements were done in vacuum vessel evacuated down to approximately 10−7Pa. The etched emitter heated have hemispherical apex with radius 110 or 220nm. caused an applied voltage...
To investigate the function of altruism as a mating signal especially among males, present study examined whether motivation man who behaves altruistically toward woman is more likely to be perceived selfish by third party. In two studies, participants read vignettes about one person helping stranger, after which they rated helpers’ motivation. We manipulated sex recipient and helper (Study 1) recipient’s age (young vs. old; Study 2). both helped young was regarded having than an individual...
