purified. Purified SOD was incubated with 1 M glucose at 37 •Ž for 14d under sterile conditions. Nonezymatic addition of glucose to SOD molecules increased linearly until 7 d, and then increased only slightly. The enzyme activity decreased to 88% after 7d and 60% after 14d. The glycated amino acid residue is not the N-terminal a-amino group but the s-amino group of lysine. It seems that lysine ...

Herein, graphene oxide is produced by electrochemical oxidation method from graphite rod to examine its hydrogen peroxide sensing ability. The electrochemically produced graphene oxide is characterized by SEM and XRD. A few layers of Graphene Oxide(GO) sheets and corrugations in graphene sheets appeared intensely crumpled and folded into a typical wrinkled structure after electrochemical oxidat...

adequate coverage is one of the main problems for distributed wireless sensor networks and the effectiveness of that highly depends on the sensor deployment scheme. given a finite number of sensors, optimizing the sensor deployment will provide sufficient sensor coverage and save power of sensors for movement to target location to adequate coverage. in this paper, we apply fuzzy logic system to...

wireless sensor networks (wsns) have many applications in the areas of commercial, military and environmental requirements. regarding the deployment of low cost sensor nodes with restricted energy resources, these networks face a lot of security challenges. a basic approach for preparing a secure wireless communication in wsns, is to propose an efficient cryptographic key management protocol be...

sybil attacks pose a serious threat for wireless sensor networks (wsn) security. they can create problems in routing, voting schemes, decision making, distributed storage and sensor re-programming. in a sybil attack,the attacker masquerades as multiple sensor identities, that are actually controlled by one or a few existing attacker nodes. sybil identities are fabricated out of stolen keys, obt...
