The effect of Hemocyanin Immuno-stimulatory in Innate and Adaptive Immunity and a potent tool in the development of Abs and Vaccines[ ]


Hemocyanins induce a potent Th1-dominant immune response with beneficial clinical outcomes when used as a carrier/adjuvant in vaccines and nonspecific immunostimulant in cancer. Collectively, datas demonstrate that hemocyanins are able to trigger the release of proinflammatory factors with different patterns of cytokine expression, suggesting differential signaling pathways and transcriptional network mechanisms that lead to the activation of M1-polarized macrophages.

Power Line Noise Measurements and Analysis in an Indoor Environment[ ]


In this paper, results and analysis of a comprehensive power line noise measurements campaign in an indoor environment are presented, both in the time and frequency domain. A simple coupler designed for the noise measurements is also presented. For the frequency domain noise, we see that much of the noise is concentrated in the frequencies between 0 MHz and 15 MHz. A simple trend analysis of the frequency domain using polynomial fits show that, on average, as we go from 0 MHz towards 30 MHz, the noise decays.

Bioinformatic approach to the model of nitrosative stress response in Candida glabrata[ ]


Candida glabrata is an opportunistic pathogen that produce systemic infection in immune-compromized patients. This yeast can internalize into the macrophage by means of phagocytosis, once this yeast is engulfed it changes the internal pH from acid to alkaline, to evade the lytic activity of phagosome, and overcomes other stresses such as oxidative and nitrosative stress. Linde et al. (2015) performed differentially expressed gene analysis under alkaline stress and nitrosative stress caused by thio-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) in C. glabrata.

APPLICATION OF CONSTANT REFLUX BATCH DISTILLATION FOR ARTESAN CRUDE OIL REFINING[ ]


Crude oil which has dominated global energy supply in the last two and half centuries has developed the science of distillation being the basis of its refining process. Continuous distillation is the preferred mode of distillation operation given its inherent advantages over batch distillation, however, the latter is gaining acceptance and even prominence in some parts of the world for several reasons. The present work revisits batch distillation design with the aim of using it for the refining of crude oil in small quantities. A constant reflux batch distillation column was designed in this work to refine 100 litres of Bonnylight crude oil of Nigeria.

Chloride Corrosion of Reinforcement in Concrete Containing Fly Ash[ ]


Corrosion of embedded steel rebars is a worldwide problem that occurs in the reinforced concrete and greatly affects the concrete durability. To avoid chloride-induced corrosion, chlorides must be hindered from reaching the steel surface. This can be rechead by using pozzolanic materials that enhance the microstructure of the concrete and make it too dense to be penetrated by chloride ions. This paper compares the corrosional behavior between OPC concrete mix and concrete containing fly ash as a partial replacement of OPC. The experimental program includes carrying out half-cell potential test and accerelated corrosion test to assess the corrosion resistance between the two mixes. Results indicated that fly ash concrete mix has much better corrosion resistance than OPC concrete mix.

Fake News Recognition using Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing[ ]


Fake news is a real menace as it quickly spreads panic among the publics. Massive spread of fake news makes negative impact on individuals and society. In this internet era people spend more time in online and for more exact in social sites over the internet. Moreover with excessive use of social sites, individuals are habituated of getting news from random social platform, online resources, news agency homepages and search engines. The most terrifying things are some people and organizations make rumors and fake news for their own interest, and social platform makes it easy to spread. Top most social sites such as twitter, facebook and instagram have huge amount of users worldwide, and using these channel’s fake news not only spread but also it is laterally blowout. However users of these sites mostly believe this news since they have no prior knowledge about that topic. This study provides a computational tool to tackle this problem of quick and accurate classification of news while fake or authentic. The proposed system is to develop a model using machine learning and NLP techniques to determine the news fake or real.

Analysis of Successful Projects[ ]


Many projects start with good ideas, huge investments and great efforts. However, most of them do not achieve much success. A major contribution to unsuccessful projects is the lack of understanding or defining project and product scope at the start of the project. Time, Cost, Scope and Quality are closely related, and change of one effect on the other. Simply completing the project by the given due date and within budget is not sufficient, because the project must also be of acceptable quality. In today's world with a distinct competitive in the business world, the quality is perhaps the most important element of competitive fighting. Problems can be constructed together with different dimensions to analyze the relations of these variables according to conditions given.
