The present paper aims to investigate the role of open metal site metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) on hydrogen adsorptivity using periodic boundary condition (PBC) density functional theory (DFT). Hence, MIL-47-M (M = V and Fe) were selected and one hydrogen molecule adsorptivity was calculated in different orientations on them. Four different chemical sites were identified in every cluster sect...

We present MI-CRF, a conditional random field (CRF) model for multiple instance learning (MIL). MI-CRF models bags as nodes in a CRF with instances as their states. It combines discriminative unary instance classifiers and pairwise dissimilarity measures. We show that both forces improve the classification performance. Unlike other approaches, MI-CRF considers all bags jointly during training a...

inflammatory leukoencephalopathy and dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency Article abstract—Multifocal inflammatory leukoencephalopathy (MIL) is a cerebral demyelinating syndrome that develops after chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and levamisole. The authors report a patient who developed MIL after 5-FU administration not in association with levamisole. She was subsequently diagnos...

ISO 9001 (ISO 1987) certification issues are bringing-out calibration anxieties. The rush to document calibration intervals for certification purposes is often driving-up costs. Both instrument manufactures and calibration services are benefiting financially from calibration anxiety brought on by “ISO systems requiring you to say what you do and do what you say to meet the ISO specifications”. ...

Electrical units are operated by electrical and electronic components. An environmental test sequence is useful for testing electrical units to reduce reliability issues. This study introduces test sequence guidelines based on relevant principles and considerations for electronic testing according to International Standard IEC-60068-1 and the United States Military Standard MIL-STD-810G. Test s...

This memorandum provides guidelines for using the United States Department of Defense Military Standard MIL-STD-1840, "Automated Interchange of Technical Information," with the Internet electronic mail standards, RFC 822 and RFC 1521. Electronic mail provides a more convenient mechanism that delivery via physical media for certain types and quantities of data. Software already exists to support...

By a facile coordination-based post-synthetic strategy, the high surface area MIL-101(Cr) nanoparticles was functionallized by grafting amine group of ethylenediamine (ED) on coordinatively unsaturated Cr(III) centers, yielding a series of ED-MIL-101(Cr)-based adsorbents and their application for adsorption of U(VI) from aqueous solution were also studied. The obtained ED-functionallized sample...

T cells are required for normal host defense against fungal infection, and individuals with T cell-deficiency syndromes are highly susceptible to fungal pathogens. Interleukin (IL)-17A is a proinflammatory cytokine that interconnects myeloid and lymphoid host defense. The role of murine (m) IL-17A/mIL-17A receptor (R) interactions was evaluated in a murine model of systemic candidiasis. In resp...

A label-free and sensitive fluorescence method for recognition of sequence-specific DNA using DNA-intercalating dye and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is developed. Here, MIL-101 (Cr3F(H2O)2O[(O2C)-C6H4-(CO2)]3·nH2O) is introduced as a quenching platform to decrease the high background fluorescence of SYBR Green I (SG)/probe DNA complex. Mechanism investigations show that MIL-101 can strongly ...
