In the title compound, C(18)H(16)N(2)O(2), the dihedral angle between the mean planes through the two benzene rings is 56.8 (6)°. The enoate group assumes an extended conformation. The hy-droxy-ethanimine group is essentially coplanar with the benzene ring, the largest deviation from the mean plane being 0.047 (1) Å for the hy-droxy-imino O atom. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are linked into c...

As popular aluminum alloys, the 5xxx Al-Mg series, such as 5050 and 5052, etc., are widely used in applications such as automobile, pressure vessels, armor plate, and components for marine and cryogenic service. In this, as in all non-heat-treatable aluminum alloys, the weld metal zone is considered to be the weakest part of the joint and is the location of failure when the joint is loaded in t...

This report describes the combined use of an enzyme-based glucose release system (EnBase®) and high-aeration shake flask (Ultra Yield Flask™). The benefit of this combination is demonstrated by over 100-fold improvement in the active yield of recombinant alcohol dehydrogenase expressed in E. coli. Compared to Terrific Broth and ZYM-5052 autoinduction medium, the EnBase system improved yield mai...

HY-2B (Haiyang) is the follow-on mission to HY-2A, Chinese first sea satellite for oceanography, launched in October 2018. The main payloads onboard are similar HY-2A. For altimeter, an in-orbit calibration mode was designed achieve higher precision. An improved transponder built and deployed campaign. purpose of this article describe validation altimeter based on transponder. A signal-rebuilt ...

The neuropeptide Y (NPY) system is a multireceptor/multiligand system consisting of four receptors in humans (hY(1), hY(2), hY(4), hY(5)) and three agonists (NPY, PYY, PP) that activate these receptors with different potency. The relevance of this system in diseases like obesity or cancer, and the different role that each receptor plays influencing different biological processes makes this syst...

Novel interventions are needed to manage treatment-resistant depression (TRD), defined as patients who do not respond two or more antidepressant trials of adequate dose and duration. We report on a 28-year-old female with TRD nonresponse several antidepressants experienced full symptomatic remission after participating in the heated hatha yoga (HY) arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) for depr...

The naphtha catalytic reforming process is evaluated by designing new composite nano-catalysts. Three catalysts were prepared for this process. first catalyst was molybdenum carbide with platinum over HY zeolite (Mo2C.Pt/HY zeolite), the second modified cerium nitrate (Mo2C.Pt/CeY and last bimetallic titanium a content of 1% 0.11% (Pt.Ti/HY zeolite). All tested several tests, mainly X-Ray Diffr...

We have shown that glucocorticoids reversibly change the growth control of rat C6 glioma cells from a transformed to a normal pattern. Here we report that the glucocorticoid hormone hydrocortisone (Hy) modulates structure and function of cell surface and cytoskeleton. The hormone is shown to cause: (a) increased flattening and adhesion to solid substrates and to fibrin layers, (b) inhibition of...

This study was made to separate genetic from postnatal maternal influences on yawning in two strains of Sprague-Dawley rats selected for high- (HY) and low-yawning frequency (LY). Foster mothers of the two strains reared litters of pups in the four possible combinations and yawning was recorded in a novel environment when the adult offspring were 75-day-old. Yawning frequency of males and femal...
