In the last years, the research in diverse disciplines has increased the importance of innovation studies at the national level. In this sense, this paper proposes the development of National Innovation Systems (NIS) and its application to the economy in Mexico. Considering the characteristics and limitations of the study region, the mentioned proposal of NIS it is necessary to integrate the st...

In this paper, we propose an adaptive wrapper generator that can generate adaptable wrapper for adapting networked information sources (NIS) format changes. When NIS’s format changed, the adaptable wrapper can start recovery phase to discover the extraction rule of the new format of target NIS. The wrapper can automatically adapt the changes of content tag and accurately extract information. Th...

The possible illicit transfer of weapons-of-massdestruction (WMD) components and know-how across NIS borders is one of the most pressing proliferation threats coming from the territory of the former Soviet Union. In the circumstances created by collapsing economies, weak government institutions, and still nascent export control systems, the considerable technological and human resources located...

A comparison of the photoefficiency of Ni(II) and NiS incorporated into zeolite P towards photodecolorization of Eriochrome Black T dye solution was investigated in a photocatalytic reactor using UV lamp as a light source. The effect of various experimental variables on the decolorization performance of the process was evaluated by examining catalyst dosage, temperature, initial dye concentrati...

Nowadays, scientific and technical innovation is the key force to enhance general competitive advantage and international status of the country. All countries have regarded strengthening the independent innovation capability as the strategic basis for national sustainable development, and are committed to their own national innovation system (NIS) planning and construction. NIS is a complex ope...

Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine cancer with 1,690 deaths each year. There are four main types of which the papillary and follicular types together account for >90% followed by medullary cancers with 3% to 5% and anaplastic carcinomas making up <3%. Epigenetic events of DNA hypermethylation are emerging as promising molecular targets for cancer detection. Our immediate and long term ...

BACKGROUND Both tumor cells and their supporting endothelial cells should be considered for targeted cell killing when designing cancer treatments. Here we investigated the feasibility of combining radioiodide and antiangiogenic therapies after baculovirus-mediated transfer of genes encoding the sodium iodide symporter (NIS) and plasminogen kringle 5 (K5). METHODS A recombinant baculovirus co...

The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence, type, and clinical features of nosocomial infections (NIs), their etiological distribution, and the antibiotic resistance patterns of causative organisms in the general pediatric wards of a hospital in Turkey over a 3-year period. The Hospital Infection Control Committee NI surveillance reports were used as a database. NIs were detecte...

The sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) has been identified as an attractive target for cancer therapy. The efficacy of 131I-iodide for NIS-expressing tumor therapy may be limited by a combination of poor cellular retention and unfavorable physical characteristics (long physical half-life and low linear-energy-transfer [LET] radiative emissions). On the other hand, 211At-astatide is also transported ...
