The advent of online social network and mobile multimedia communication has made content sharing in social network easier and more efficient. It is very important to combine fingerprinting and encryption for social multimedia content protection. In this paper, a parallel JFE (joint fingerprinting and encryption) framework is proposed. Firstly, the multi-level social fingerprint code is produced...

Electronic health records (EHRs) facilitates the healthcare process. However, it can also cause serious security and privacy problems. While various conventional encryption mechanisms can solve some aspects of these problems, they cannot address the illegal distribution of decrypted medical images. To protect decrypted medical images from being illegally distributed by an authorized staff membe...

Several bacteria use glycerol dehydrogenase to transform glycerol into dihydroxyacetone (Dha). Dha is subsequently converted into Dha phosphate (Dha-P) by an ATP- or phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-dependent Dha kinase. Listeria innocua possesses two potential PEP-dependent Dha kinases. One is encoded by 3 of the 11 genes forming the glycerol (gol) operon. This operon also contains golD (lin0362), wh...

The objective of this study was to develop a model to predict the growth of C. perfringens from spores at temperatures applicable to the cooling of cooked cured meat products. C. perfringens growth from spores was not observed at a temperature of Ž . 12 C for up to 3 weeks. The two parameters: germination, outgrowth, and lag GOL time and exponential growth rate, EGR, were determined using a fun...

Mitochondrial hypervariable region I genetic data from ancient populations at two sites in Asia-Linzi in Shandong (northern China) and Egyin Gol in Mongolia-were reanalyzed to detect population affinities. Data from 51 modern populations were used to generate distance measures (Fst's) to the two ancient populations. The tests first analyzed relationships at the regional level and then compiled ...
