Percentile residual life orders [PDF]

, 2008
In this paper we study a family of stochastic orders of random variables defined via the comparison of their percentile residual life functions. Some interpretations of these stochastic orders are given, and various properties of them are derived. The

Decomposition of residual cyanide by bacteria used for Au bioleaching

Journal of Environmental Conservation Engineering, 2006
シアンの生成能及び分解能をあわせ持つChromobacterium violaceum (以下, C.riolaceumとする) による生成シアンの分解を試み, 廃棄物中にシアンを含有しないAuバイオリーチングプロセス展望の可能性について検討した.実験の結果, C.violaceumは5.0mmol/l以下のKCNに対する耐性が確認でき, 指数増殖後期から定常期にかけてシアン分解が顕著に行われ, その際の培養条件として10mmol/lのグルタミン酸添加が効果的であることが明らかとなった.さらにC.violaceum自身が生成したシアンを同一菌で分解することを試みたところ, 生成シアン濃度が高くなるグリシン添加YP複合培地を用いた際には ...

Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...

Ionomycin suppresses cancer cell growth by disrupting mitochondrial transcription

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, we identify a new function for the selective Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin, as an inhibitor of mitochondrial transcription. Both total and nascent RNA analyses revealed that ionomycin treatment reduces the transcription of mitochondrial genes.

Transient spectroscopy of the reaction of cyanide with ferrous myoglobin. Effect of distal side residues.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1990
The reaction of cyanide metmyoglobin with dithionite conforms to a two-step sequential mechanism with formation of an unstable intermediate, identified as cyanide bound ferrous myoglobin. This reaction was investigated by stopped-flow time resolved spectroscopy using different myoglobins, i.e. those from horse heart, Aplysia limacina buccal muscle, and

BCG vaccination potentiates oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal myeloid‐derived suppressor cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
BCG vaccination enhances oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal MDSCs, impairing their immunosuppressive function. It upregulates electron transport chain genes and mitochondrial activity, increasing ATP and oxygen consumption. Pharmacological OXPHOS inhibition partially restores suppressive capacity, confirming causality.

Estimation of genetic variation in residual variance in female and male broiler chickens [PDF]

, 2008
In breeding programs, robustness of animals and uniformity of end product can be improved by exploiting genetic variation in residual variance. Residual variance can be defined as environmental variance after accounting for all identifiable effects.

Residual stresses in ceramic metal assembly after brazing process [PDF]

, 2006
The framework of this study is the thermo-mechanical analysis of the brazing process of ceramic metal assemblies. The thermal expansion gradient between ceramic and metallic materials leads to the development of residual stresses during the cooling phase

Fabrication Routes for Ionic Conducting Fiber Strain Sensors

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Ionic conducting fiber strain sensors (ICFSs) offer compliant, textile‐integrable sensing. Thus far, the commercialization of ICFSs has been constrained by fiber fabrication routes. This review provides a fabrication‐centric analysis of ICFSs correlating processing strategies with material properties and scalability.
