Soldiers are exposed to multiple stress conditions adverse psychological, physico-chemical and environmental conditions during warfare which can result in significant physical and chemical alterations in the biological system. The effects of carbamate (pyridostigmine bromide, PB) pretreatment prior to physiological stress and organophosphorous compound, DFP (diisopropylfluorophosphate) exposure...

The deposition of dry fiber materials in the placement (DFP) process with subsequent impregnation is becoming increasingly widespread. wing covers Irkut MS 21 are already being manufactured using DFP process, and research projects at major aircraft manufacturers incorporating technology. In this speed depends on temperature compaction force. However, it not only laying that counts during produc...

We report a biosensor based on organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH) multilayer modified microcantilever (MCL) for detection of organophosphorus compounds (OPs). The assay is based on substrate-dependent bending of the OPH functionalized MCLs. The cantilever bending amplitude at equilibrium was a function of the concentration of paraoxon with the dynamic range extending from 10(-7) to 10(-3)M. The l...

The quantization of General Relativity invariant with respect to time-reparametrizations is considered. We construct the Faddeev-Popov generating functional for the unitary perturbation theory in terms of invariants of the kinemetric group of diffeomorphisms of a frame of reference as a set of Einstein’s observers with the equivalent Hamiltonian description (t = t(t), x = x(t, x, x, x)). The al...

Rats were given glycyl-L-glutamine (Gly-Gln) by intraaortic infusion with Alzet osmotic pumps during the 48-hr period following the intraaortic administration of diisopropyl phosphorofluoridate (DFP) (10 mumol/kg). The infusion of 1.2 mumol of Gly-Gln per 24 hr resulted in a significant increase in the acetylcholinesterase (AcChoEase; acetylcholine acetylhydrolase, EC 3.1.1.7) activity of the g...

Properdin factor D,1 a 23,500 tool wt euglobulin (6), interacts with properdin factor B and cobra venom factor (CoVF) to generate the CoVF-dependent C3 convertase which cleaves C3 (7) and activates the terminal complement components, C5-C9 (8). Fluid phase C3b, the major cleavage fragment of C3, interacts with factors B and D in a manner analogous to CoVF to form a fluid phase C3b-dependent C3 ...

Systems factorial technology (SFT) comprises a set of powerful nonparametric models and measures, together with a theory-driven experiment methodology termed the double factorial paradigm (DFP), for assessing the cognitive information-processing mechanisms supporting the processing of multiple sources of information in a given task (Townsend and Nozawa, Journal of Mathematical Psychology 39:321...

Deadlines are the most important events in real-time systems. Realtime programs must therefore be aware of deadlines, and be able to identify and react to missed deadlines. Moreover, Earliest Deadline First (EDF) is the most widely studied optimal dynamic scheduling algorithm for uniprocessor real-time systems. In this paper we explore how a resource sharing protocol (called the DFP – Deadline ...
