Ascorbate in an aqueous solution is easily oxidized by molecular oxygen in the presence of cupric ion, thus producing reactive oxygen species and exhibiting cytotoxicity. In order to increase the antitumor activity of ascorbate, we used the innocuous form of cupric ion complexed with glycylglycylhistidine, a tripeptide designed to mimic the specific Cu(ll) transport site of albumin molecule. Al...

Bambara groundnut is a highly nutritious underutilized legume with enormous potential to sustain food security in resource-poor countries. However, its for improvement through conventional breeding (< 2% success rate) limitation due the nature of flowers. Thus, most viable method improving this crop by creating genetic variability induced mutagenesis. The present study was conducted evaluate ra...

In this work, we explore building constructions with full domain hash structure, but with standard model proofs that do not employ the random oracle heuristic. The launching point for our results will be the utilization of a “leveled” multilinear map setting for which Garg, Gentry, and Halevi (GGH) recently gave an approximate candidate. Our first step is the creation of a standard model signat...

OBJECTIVES We sought further understanding of the association between methotrexate (MTX) therapy and accelerated development of subcutaneous rheumatoid nodules. The objective was to establish expression of genes involved in the transport, metabolism, and mechanism of action of MTX within nodule tissue. We also examined for differences in gene expression between nodules from patients actively re...

A second-order method for blind source separation of noisy instantaneous linear mixtures is presented and analyzed for the case where the signal order k and noise covariance GGH are unknown. Only a data set X of dimension n> k and of sample size m is observed, where X = AP + GW. The quality of separation depends on source-observation ratio }, the degree of spectral diversity, and the second-ord...
