The diffuse ionized gas (DIG) is an important component of the interstellar medium that can provide insights into different physical processes affecting in galaxies. We utilise optical IFU observations 71 gas-stripped and control galaxies from Gas Stripping Phenomena (GASP) survey, to analyze properties dense DIG, such as metallicity, ionization parameter log(q), difference between measured $\l...

ABSTRACT The metallicity of diffuse ionized gas (DIG) cannot be determined using strong emission line diagnostics, which are calibrated to calculate the H ii regions. Because this, resolved maps from integral field spectroscopy (IFS) data remain largely incomplete. In this paper (the second a series), we introduce geostatistical technique universal kriging, allows complete 2D distribution galax...

Health claims and front-of-pack labels (FoPLs) may lead consumers to hold more positive attitudes and show a greater willingness to buy food products, regardless of their actual healthiness. A potential negative consequence of this positivity bias is the increased consumption of unhealthy foods. This study investigated whether a positivity bias would occur in unhealthy variations of four produc...

Gel retardation, also named electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA), is a useful tool for identifying protein-DNA interactions. Typically, 32P-labeled DNA probes used in EMSA are sensitive. However, it relies on the handling of hazardous radioisotopes, and is not easily quantified. Recently, some successful cases have been reported using non-radio labelled probes instead of radiolabelled pr...

Plasma concentrations of protease inhibitors are lower in pregnant women than in nonpregnant women or men. Using nelfinavir as a model protease inhibitor, we have shown that this phenomenon can be reproduced in a representative non-human primate model, Macaca nemestrina (J Pharmacol Exp Ther 329:1016-1022, 2009). Nelfinavir is cleared from the body predominantly by CYP3A metabolism and P-glycop...

An analyst today has a tremendous amount of data available, but each of the various data sources typically exists in their own silos, so an analyst has limited ability to see an integrated view of the data and has little or no access to contextual information that could help in understanding the data. We have developed the Domain-Insight Graph (DIG) system, an innovative architecture for extrac...
