the purpose of this work is to promote and facilitate forensic profiling and chemical analysis of illicit drug samples in order to determine their origin, methods of production and transfer through the country. the article is based on the gas chromatography analysis of heroin samples seized from three different locations in serbia. chemometric approach with appropriate statistical tools (multip...

in this study 50 samples of ecstasy tablets seized in iran during the period of 2007 through 2008 were examined and their physical characteristics (appearance, marking, scored/not scored, color, weight, diameter, thickness) were determined. in order to determine the chemical characteristics of these tablets, color tests (marquis test, simon’s test, chen’s test and gallic acid test), thin layer ...

We propose a unified, low-overhead framework (ULF) to support continuous system profiling and optimization based on a specifically designed embedded board. Instead of building a new profiling tool from scratch, ULF provides a unified interface to integrate various existing profiling tools and optimizers, and helps to easily build future tools. ULF uses an embedded processor to offload tasks of ...

background: ovarian cancer is the most fatal tumor of female's reproductive system, and several genetics and environmental factors are involved in its development. various studies have already identified suitable biomarkers to facilitate the early detection, prognosis evaluation, and the assessment of treatment response. however, the aim of this review was to investigate the role of long n...

We consider structure with single quantum well InP 5 nm thick grown by vapor phase epitaxy on n-GaP wafer. By classical capacitance-voltage profiling of Schottky diode sample and electrochemical profiling, electron accumulation were detected in layer so existence is confirmed. Results admittance spectroscopy deep-level transient showed defect formation GaP layers above energy position Ec-0.21 e...

Although consumer profiling advocates tout benefits from personalization, consumer advocacy groups oppose profiling in online markets because of concerns about privacy and price discrimination. Policies such as opt-out or opt-in that provide consumers the option to voluntarily participate in profiling are the favored compromise. We compare voluntary profiling to no profiling and show that volun...

Criminal profiling is the process of using crime scene evidence to make inferences about potential suspects, including personality characteristics and psychopathology. An exploratory Internet survey of forensic psychologists and psychiatrists was conducted to examine their experiences with and opinions about profiling and to determine whether referring to profiling as “criminal investigative an...

Seasonal variations of the seawater properties (e.g. temperature, salinity, density and chlorophyll-a) in western part of the southern coastal waters of the Caspian Sea near the Iranian coast were studied. A portable CTD probe was applied for profiling from sea surface to bottom at 23 stations. Maximum depth of the profiling stations was more than 470 m in the study area. Vertical structure of ...

Aim 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) is one of the most widespread illegal drugs, used particularly by young people in the 15-34 age group. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenously synthesized, non-coding and small RNAs that post-transcriptionally regulate their target genes’ expression by inhibiting protein translation or degradation. miRNAs are increasingly implicated in drug-related...
