In recent years, many application deployment technologies have emerged such as configuration management tools, e.g., Chef and Juju, infrastructure and platform technologies, e.g., Cloud Foundry and OpenStack, as well as container-based approaches, e.g., Docker. As a result, many repositories exist which contain executable and heavily used artifacts that can be used with these technologies, e.g....

The synthesis, electrochemical, optical and cation-sensing properties of ferrocene-imidazoquinoxaline dyads 6, are presented. Dyad 6a behaves as a highly selective redox, chromogenic and fluorescent chemosensor molecule for Pb(2+) cations in CH(3)CN solutions; the oxidation redox peak is anodically shifted (DeltaE(1/2) = 110 mV); in the absorption spectrum a new low-energy band appeared at lamb...

La RFPT et les rédacteurs en chef délégués, remercient très chaleureusement collègues qui ont relu articles publiés dans ce numéro spécial consacré à l’Imagerie Hyperspectrale, parait 2022. Nous leur sommes gré de l’effort du dévouement qu’ils déployé au bénéfice l’ensemble la communauté pour avoir permis revue tenir ses objectifs qualité délais parution.

1-[(Anthracen-9-yl)methylene] thiosemicarbazide shows weak fluorescence due to a photo-induced electron transfer (PET) process from the thiosemicarbazide moiety to the excited anthracene. The anthracene emission can be recovered via protonation of the amine as the protonated aminomethylene as an electron-withdrawing group that suppresses the PET process. Similarly, chelation between the ligand ...

Supplementing nutrition education with skills-building activities may enhance community awareness of diet-related cancer prevention guidelines. To develop a cookbook with lifestyle tips, recipes were solicited from the National Black Leadership Initiative on Cancer (NBLIC) community coalitions and dietary intake advice from participants in the Educational Program to Increase Colorectal Cancer S...

The authors present a new concept of digital gastronomy — Cornucopia, a futuristic cooking methodology based on digital technologies. They discuss how they have merged kitchen tools with science fiction and actual technologies to create this new design space for gastronomy. The Virtuoso Mixer, the Digital Fabricator and the Robotic Chef were conceptualized to enable more flexibility and control...

Until recently, morphotyping, a method evaluating fringe and surface characteristics of streak colonies grown on malt agar, has been recommended as a simple and unexpensive typing method for Candida albicans isolates. The discriminatory power and reproducibility of Hunter's modified scheme of Phongpaichit's morphotyping has been evaluated on 28 C. albicans isolates recovered from the oral cavit...
