UNLABELLED The cationic peptide (68)Ga-NOTA-UBI-29-41 was synthesized and characterized. Biodistribution and PET/CT examinations were performed for evaluation of its biologic behavior. Differentiation of infection from sterile inflammation was investigated using microbiology methods at the sites of bacterial infections. METHODS Labeling of UBI-29-41 conjugated with NOTA with (68)Ga was optimi...

We propose a novel interface in mobile environment called “Ubi-Finger” that realizes sensuous operations for PDA and information appliances by gestures of fingers. Since gestures are usual methods of non-verbal communications and enables sensuous operations for users, many researches on them carried out especially in the field of Virtual Reality. However most of those existing gesture-input sys...

Ubi-Com has emerged as an exciting new paradigm to provide intelligent computig and communications at anytime and anywhere. But, In order to take the advantages of such services, it is important that intelligent security framework be suitable for Ubi-Com. In this paper, we propose privacy and access control scheme by surveillance which is one of core security technologies for ubiquitous hybrid ...

ABSTRACT The Covid-19 pandemic outbreak has led to an increasing interest in universal basic income (UBI) proposals, as it exposed the inadequacy of traditional welfare systems provide financial security a large share population. In this paper, we use static tax-benefit microsimulation model analyse fiscal and distributional effects hypothetical implementation Brazil alternative UBI schemes tha...

Contemporary urban landscape is being pervaded by various forms of ubiquitous computing (‘ubicomp’) technologies. They provide new opportunities and challenges for the interaction with their inhabitants -essentially turning urban spaces into smart environments. However, cities as smart environments remain largely unexplored research wise, with smart cities’ impact on people’s daily lives much l...

1. The function of ubiquinone in Escherichia coli was studied by using whole cells and membrane preparations of normal E. coli and of a mutant lacking ubiquinone. 2. The mutant lacking ubiquinone, strain AN59 (Ubi(-)), when grown under aerobic conditions, gave an anaerobic type of growth yield and produced large quantities of lactic acid, indicating that ubiquinone plays a vital role in electro...

Abstract This study contributes to the emerging literature on public opinion a universal basic income (UBI) not only by investigating role of human values in influencing support for UBI but also examining moderating welfare state development association between and support. Using European Social Survey (ESS) Round 8 2016, which has an item asking whether 21-item measure that is based Schwartz t...

background: ubi 29-41 (a derivative of antimicrobial peptide ubiquicidin) labelled with 99mtc is reported to discriminate between bacterial infections and sterile inflammatory processes. in this study, three lyophilized kit were performed, one of them based on the direct labelling with only sncl2 as reducing agent , and other two based on 6- hydrazinopyridine-3-carboxylic acid (hynic) and trici...

It is well known that brain and nervous system cells are prone to oxidative damage because of their relatively low content of antioxidants, especially enzymatic ones, and of the high levels of both membrane polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and iron easily released from injured cells. We have investigated the oxidative stress in the blood (plasma, erythrocytes and lymphocytes) of 28 patients a...
