The powerfulness of a combinatorial approach in the discovery of novel chiral catalyst systems, particularly for the development of highly efficient, enantioselective, and practical catalysts for asymmetric reactions, was demonstrated by screening modular chiral catalyst libraries created by the strategy of two-component ligand modification of metal ions on the basis of molecular recognition an...

A novel concept of stabilizing multiple-phase food structure such as emulsion using solely the constitutional bacteria enables an all-natural grade formulation and thus a clean label declaration. In this paper, we propose efficient approach to hydrophobically modifying surface lactic acid Lactobacillus rhamnosus (LGG) lauroyl ahloride (LC) in non-aqueous media. Compared unmodified bacteria, cel...

In this paper, a novel approach based on timedomain pitch-synchronous point-to-point (TD-PSPTP) model for speech synthesis is presented. Compared to TD-PSOLA, which is currently one of the most popular concatenation methods, TD-PSPTP model provides a wider range of pitch and time modification. The quality of synthesized speech by TD-PSPTP shows to be high, especially its capability of overcomin...

Background The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of sleep pattern modification on reducing the math learning disorder in the sixth-grade elementary school students in the Kerman city, Iran. Materials and Methods: This study was carried out using a semi-empirical, pre-, and post-survey method. A control group and sample pop...

In this paper we present a novel dynamic verification approach to protect the local host confidentiality from malicious Java mobile code. In our approach we use Bytecode Modification to add the verification function to the Java mobile code’s class files before the local JVM executes them. Thus the verification work is done when the host JVM executes the modified class files. By this way our app...

Self-reported measures of dietary intake are prone to measurement error that may obscure the relationship of diet and disease. This review addresses strategies to decrease errors during collection of dietary data and statistical approaches to deal with measurement issues once the data are collected.  Examples from two US studies-- the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) Dietary Modificat...

Quality of Service (QoS) refers to a set of rules or techniques that help the network administrators use the available network resources optimally to manage the effects of congestion and to treat the applications according to their needs. The differentiated services architecture (DiffServ) allows providing quality of service to users. The major DiffServ premise is that individual flows with sim...
