Clique-Stable Set separation in perfect graphs with no balanced skew-partitions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Inspired by a question of Yannakakis on the Vertex Packing polytope of perfect graphs, we study the Clique-Stable Set Separation in a non-hereditary subclass of perfect graphs.

Effect of thiol compounds on human complement component C4 [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1993
Thiol compounds have been investigated as inhibitors of the covalent binding reaction of human complement protein C4 using Sepharose-C1s as a combined activating and binding surface. o- and p-substituted aminothiophenols are equally effective inhibitors, whereas the m-substituted compound is a less potent inhibitor. The anti-hypertensive drug captopril

Adsorption and Separation by Flexible MOFs

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Flexible metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) present significant potential for gas storage and separation due to their structural dynamic. This review explores the rationale behind the flexible MOFs' enhanced working capacity and separation factors. It also addresses key challenges, including phase transition kinetics, crystal robustness, cycling, shaping,

Harnessing Synergistic Cooperation of Neighboring Active Motifs in Heterogeneous Catalysts for Enhanced Catalytic Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines the critical role of neighboring active motifs in heterogeneous catalysts, emphasizing how their synergistic cooperativity can be rationally designed to modulate catalytic properties. The discussion centers on the modulation of electronic and geometric structures, categorizing the catalytic systems into metal‐acid (Brønsted/Lewis ...

Importance of complement system components in ovarian endometriomas. A comparative cohort study [PDF]

open access: yesГинекология
Background. Ovarian endometriomas are one of the most common ovarian neoplasms. There are specific ultrasound criteria for this type of endometriosis; however, in some cases, differential diagnosis from other ovarian tumors is challenging. Aim.

Randomized Fast Design of Short DNA Words

open access: yes, 2005
We consider the problem of efficiently designing sets (codes) of equal-length DNA strings (words) that satisfy certain combinatorial constraints. This problem has numerous motivations including DNA computing and DNA self-assembly.
