Non-covalent derivatives (NCDs) are formed by incorporating one (or more) coformer molecule(s) into the matrix of a parent molecule via non-covalent forces. These forces can include ionic forces, Van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonding, lipophilic-lipophilic interactions and pi-pi interactions. NCDs, in both cocrystal and eutectic forms, possess properties that are unique to their supramolecular...

We study quark mass matrices derived from magnetized $T^2/\mathbb{Z}_2$ orbifold models. Yukawa at three modular fixed points, $\tau=i, e^{2\pi i/3}$ and $i\infty$ are invariant under $S$, $ST$ $T$-transformations. these invariances on twisted orbifold. find that have a kind of texture structures although ones $\tau=i\infty$ not realistic. classify textures $\tau=i$ $e^{2\pi i/3}$. Moreover we ...

In this paper, novel polyimide/cellulose/TiO2 bionanocomposites (PI/BNCs) were prepared via a simple and inexpensive ultrasonic irradiation process. PI was synthesized by direct polycondensation reaction of novel monomer dianhydride with 4-(2-(4-aminophenyl)-1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropan-2-yl)benzenamine. Due to the high surface energy and tendency for agglomeration the surface of nanoparticles ...

Modified Hedley fraction method was used to study the forms and profile distribution in the tidal river network region subjected to rapid deposition and hydrologic disturbance in the Yellow River Delta (YRD) estuary, eastern China. The results showed that the total P (Pt) ranged from 612.1 to 657.8 mg kg(-1). Dilute HCl extractable inorganic P (Pi) was the predominant form in all profiles, both...

We have used polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies against different lamins from vertebrates, and the IFA antibody recognizing all kinds of intermediate filament proteins, to investigate the lamins of the nuclear matrix of Allium cepa meristematic root cells. All the antibodies react in the onion nuclear matrix with bands in the range of 60-65 kDa, which are enriched in the nuclear matrix after ...

Size-dependent melting decouples melting temperature from chemical composition and provides a new design variable for phase change material applications. To demonstrate this potential, we create nanocomposites that exhibit stable and tunable melting temperatures through numerous melt-freeze cycles. These composites consist of a monodisperse ensemble of Bi nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in a polyi...

This paper proposes a practical stability analysis of a particular class of continuous PI-like fuzzy control systems based on the convergence of regular vector norms. This approach is based on the comparison, the overvaluing principle and the application of Borne and Gentina criterion. The stability conditions issued from vector norms correspond to a vector Lyapunov function. A comparison syste...

Lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) is a membrane protein that can support the binding, internalization, and proteolytic degradation of oxidized low-density lipoprotein. The LOX-1 expression increases in the neointima after balloon injury. To develop an efficient compound to inhibit LOX-1, we designed and synthesized a novel gene silencer pyrrole-imidazole (PI) polya...

Pionless effective field theory in a finite volume (FVEFT$_{\pi\!/}$) is investigated as framework for the analysis of multi-nucleon spectra and matrix elements calculated lattice QCD (LQCD). By combining FVEFT$_{\pi\!/}$ with stochastic variational method, nuclei atomic number $A\in\{2,3\}$ are matched to existing finite-volume LQCD calculations at heavier-than-physical quark masses correspond...

Phosphatidylinositol (PI) kinases are key molecules that participate in the phosphoinositide signaling in the cytoplasm. Despite the accumulating evidence that supports the existence and operation of independent PI signaling system in the nucleus, the exact location of the PI kinases inside the nucleus is not well defined. Here we show that PI4-kinases IIα and IIβ, which play central roles in P...
