Hidden Hazards: Finding Missing Nodes in Large Graph Epidemics

Given a noisy or sampled snapshot of an infection in a large graph, can we automatically and reliably recover the truly infected yet somehow missed nodes? And, what about the seeds, the nodes from which the infection started to spread? These are important questions in diverse contexts, ranging from epidemiology to social media. In this paper, we address the problem of simultaneously recovering ...

Excipients and additives: hidden hazards in drug products and in product substitution.

The excipients and additives in drug formulations have been described as inert because they do not have an active role in the prevention or treatment of particular ailments. This has led to the misconception among physicians, pharmacists, drug manufacturers and the public that excipients are harmless and unworthy of mention. In fact, pharmacists are allowed to substitute drug formulations, with...

Free Radical Scavenging Principles of Salvia reuterana Boiss. Aerial Parts

Salvia reuterana Bioss. is an aromatic perennial plant traditionally used for its anxiolytic and sedative properties. In the present study, various fractions and essential oil of S. reuterana aerial parts were investigated to find its free radical scavenging principles. Hydroalcoholic fraction with IC50 value of 112.6 ±3.2 μg ml-1 in DPPH assay demonstrated the highest free radical scavenging a...
