The number of people suffering from symptoms sensitive skin has been growing. Their main pains are specified as dryness and chronic itch. Recent studies showed that Substance P (SP) Neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R) on the C nerve fibers related to Focusing this pathway, we discovered maltotetraose (MTO), a type polysaccharide, alleviated itch skin. Single-center, open-label clinical trials formulat...

Increasing cost pressures have led supply chain managers to focus on running increasingly lean and efficient supply chains, with minimal inventory. Indeed, more and more firms are relying on pull or make-toorder (MTO) supply chains to minimize cost and waste. At the same time, increasing competitive pressures are leading to an increased emphasis on customer service. An important element of cust...

Inactivation tests of Ascaris eggs (Ae) were performed using hydrogen peroxide and a Fenton type nanocatalyst supported on activated carbon (AC) (FeOx/C). Blank inactivation tests were also carried out using H2O2 and H2O2/AC as oxidation systems. The FeOx/C nanocatalyst was synthesized through a novel hybrid method developed in this work. The method is based on the incipient impregnation techni...

Magnetron sputtering is a widely used physical vapor deposition technique for deposition and formation of nanocatalyst thin films and clusters. Nevertheless, so far only few studies investigated this formation process at the fundamental level. We here review atomic scale molecular dynamics simulations aimed at elucidating the nanocatalyst growth process through magnetron sputtering. We first in...

The Moving to Opportunity (MTO) housing experiment has proven to be an important intervention not just in the lives of the poor, but in social science theories of neighborhood effects. Competing causal claims have been the subject of considerable disagreement, culminating in the debate between Clampet-Lundquist and Massey and Ludwig et al. in this issue. This article assesses the debate by clar...

One of the growing production strategies is hybrid Make-To-Stock (MTS)/ Make-To-Order (MTO), since this strategy benefit from the both well-know strategies MTS and MTO. Among handful research papers in the field of hybrid production context, no researches have been devoted to aggregate production planning level. Therefore, this paper addresses aggregate production planning from a tactical point...

A novel concept to balance and tradeoff between make-to-stock and make-to-order has been hybrid MTS/MTO production context. One of the most important decisions involved in the hybrid MTS/MTO environment is determining whether a product is manufactured to stock, to order, or hybrid MTS/MTO strategy. In this paper, a model based on analytic network process is developed to tackle the addressed dec...

Handling conflicting objectives and finding multiple Pareto optimal solutions are two challenging issues in solving multiobjective optimization problems (MOPs). Inspired by the efficiency of multitask (MTO) problem (MTOP), we propose to treat MOP as a MTOP solve it using MTO. By transforming into MTOP, not only that difficulty handling can be avoided, but also MTO help efficiently find well-dis...

The TB-LMTO-ASA method is reviewed and generalized to an accurate and robust TB-NMTO minimal-basis method, which solves Schrödinger’s equation to Nth order in the energy expansion for an overlapping MT-potential, and which may include any degree of downfolding. For N = 1, the simple TBLMTO-ASA formalism is preserved. For a discrete energy mesh, the NMTO basis set may be given as: χ (r) = ∑ n φ ...
