The use of L(-)SddC [beta-L-2',3'-dideoxy-3'-thiacytidine (lamivudine, 3TC)] for the treatment of Herpes B virus (HBV) infection is hindered by the emergence of drug-resistance associated with the L526M, L550V, and L526M/M550V mutations of the viral DNA polymerase (DP). The interactions of the anti-HBV compounds 2',3'-dideoxy-2',3'-didehydro-beta-L(-)-5-fluorode-oxycytidine and 2'-fluoro-5-meth...

Com os avanços da medicina veterinária, melhorias na nutrição e maior cuidado dos tutores com seus animais, a perspectiva de vida cães está aumentando significativamente. No entanto, esse aumento longevidade vem acompanhado pelo surgimento mais frequente doenças relacionadas ao envelhecimento, sendo uma delas Síndrome Disfunção Cognitiva Canina (SDDC). Essa síndrome afeta idosos não apenas fisi...

Software-Defined Data Centers (SDDC) extend virtualization, software-defined networking and systems, and middleboxes to provide a better quality of service (QoS). While many network flow routing algorithms exist, most of them fail to adapt to the dynamic nature of the data center and cloud networks and their users’ and enterprise requirements. This paper presents SMART, a SoftwareDefined Networ...

The Hall Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations are an extension of the standard MHD that include “Hall” term from general Ohm’s law. decouples ion and electron motion physically on inertial length scales. Implementing in a numerical solver allows more physical simulations for plasma dynamics scales less than scale but greater length. present effort is important step towards producing correct resu...

We report in this work on the scaling behavior of wormlike micelles formed in a series of mixed systems of oppositely charged surfactants, including sodium decanote (SD)/hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), sodium laurate (SL)/hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, sodium didecaminocystine (SDDC)/hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, and sodium dilauraminocystine (SDLC)/hexadecyltrimethylammon...

Software Defined Networking/Network Function Virtualization (SDN/NFV) is considered as a key technology for future mobile networks, such as 5G mobile communications systems. By 2020, the market size for Centralized-Radio Access Networks (C-RAN) will reach $21B. At the same time, enterprise Software Defined Data Center (SDDC) and the mobility market will increase to $77B and $360B, respectively....

Since Babagorgorfountain in the Ghorveh city of Kurdistan province is located in the arsenic belt of Iran, to raise awareness about the quality of drinking water from this fountain the concentration of arsenic and other heavy metals as well as other physicochemical parameters were investigated to protect the public health. In this study, water samples were collected from Babagorgorfountain. Ars...

We present a new method of digital correlation, which uses the technology of direct intermediate frequency or radio frequency sampling and digital phase shift. Digital correlators down-sample IF or RF signals with 3-bit analog-to-digital converters and then delay one sampling interval for quadrature phase shift. Following the same procedure as analog correlation, the digitalized I/Q pairs are p...
