Supramolecular catalysts have received a great deal of attention because they improve the selectivity and efficiency of reactions. Catalysts with host molecules exhibit specific reaction properties and recognize substrates via host-guest interactions. Here, we examined radical polymerization reactions with a chain transfer agent (CTA) that has α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) as a host molecule (α-CD-CTA)...

With the rapid development of integrated circuit design technology and the processed tasks and data volumes growing, MPSoC is becoming increasingly popular in a variety of applications. In MPSoC design, parallelism is a very important issue, for example, how to realize task parallelism and data parallelism. Focusing on this issue, this paper analyzes the role of DMA and presents an ILP-Based DM...

ZnO nanorods were prepared using dimethylamine (DMA) controlled Sol-Gel process. Dimethylamine was added as an additive to control the sol-gel process for growing ZnO nanorods. DMA would exhibit stabilizing effect, promote dissolution of precursor and control the rate of sol-gel reactions because of its basic nature and significant miscibility. The Structural and microstructural properties of t...

The objective of this paper is to propose a new algebra, called decision map algebra (DMA), especially devoted to multicriteria spatial modeling. DMA is a generic and context-independent modeling language inspired from map algebra and other similar languages. It supports the conventional geometric objects and cartographic maps and adds a rich set of new operands representing different spatial m...

The local anesthetics lidocaine (lido) and prilocaine (prilo) are metabolized to their constituent aromatic amines 2,6-dimethylaniline (DMA, 2,6-xylidine) and 2-methylaniline (MA, o-toluidine), respectively, which are both tumorigenic in rats. The capacity of lido and prilo to form DNA adducts was assessed in major target tissues for aromatic amines in male F344 rats in comparison to equimolar ...

Background and aims: Data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey for 2007-2010 were used to evaluate factors that affect observed variability in urinary phytoestrogens. Methods: Data for six phytoestrogen variables, namely, daidzein (DAZ), o-desmethylangolensin (DMA), equol (EQU), enterodiol (ETD), enterolactone (ETL), and genistein (GNS) were available for analyses. Regression m...

N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-5-methyl-3-isoxazolecarboxamide (D2624) belongs to a new series of experimental anticonvulsants related to lidocaine. This study was undertaken to understand the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of D2624 in rats and humans, with emphasis on the possible formation of 2,6-dimethylaniline (2,6-DMA). After oral administration of stable isotope-labeled parent drug to rats and G...

The aim of the study was to standardize the pellet cryopreservation procedure for chicken semen. Mericanel della Brianza male chicken breeders (Italian breed) were used. Pooled semen samples were processed according to the following conditions: (1) dilution in prefreezing extender to 1 versus 1.5 bill cells/mL sperm working concentration (SWC); (2) 6% versus 9% dimethyl acetamide (DMA) concentr...

A device driver has been developed to apply the PEXOR hardware for Linux OS. It is realized as a char driver kernel module, currently for kernel versions 2.6.27. The driver operations for read() and write() implement PIO to the PEXOR on-board memory. Operation mmap() allocates kernel buffers for DMA operations and maps these to user space addresses. The pexor kernel module manages these buffers...
