Sulfonamides were extracted from honey with acetate buffer (pH 5.0), and cleaned up by solid phase extraction (SPE) procedure. The liquid chromatography (LC) separation was carried out on RP C18 column using acetic acid and acetonitrile as the mobile phase in gradient mode and monitored with fluorescence detector, after pre-column derivatisation. Recoveries from spiked honey were above 80%, and...

A central problem in designing interactive graphics systems is the bandwidth bottleneck between the rasterizer, the engine that computes pixel values for each primitive in a scene, and the frame buffer, the memory system that stores pixel values. Despite remarkable advances in semiconductor storage, this problem not only is still with us, but increasingly is the barrier to further improvements ...

The episodic buffer has been described as a structure of working memory capable of maintaining multimodal information in an integrated format. Although the role of the episodic buffer in binding features into objects has received considerable attention, several of its characteristics have remained rather underexplored. This is the case for its maintenance capacity limits and its separability fr...

Scientific discoveries are increasingly dependent upon the analysis of large volumes of data from observations and simulations of complex phenomena. Scientists compose the complex analyses as workflows and execute them on largescale HPC systems. The workflow structures are in contrast with monolithic single simulations that have often been the primary use case on HPC systems. Simultaneously, ne...

HEALERS is a practical, high-performance toolkit that can enhance the robustness and security of existing applications. For any shared library, it can find all functions defined in that library and automatically derives properties for those functions. Through automated faultinjection experiments, it can detect arguments that cause the library to crash and derive safe argument types for each fun...

PURPOSE The aim of the study was the development of a simple and rapid analytical procedure for the determination of the most frequently used antihistamine derivatives. METHODS A capillary zone electrophoretic method was developed for the simultaneous separation of loratadine, desloratadine and cetirizine. Efforts were focused primarly on the optimisation of the experimental parameters: buffe...
