We aimed to identify functional differences between different sections of the thallus Ulva australis and develop tissue-endpoint combinations assess toxicity six metals (i.e., Ag, As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni). EC50 values for these in three were obtained multiple endpoints: relative growth rate (RGR), chlorophyll a fluorescence, pigment contents, expression photosynthesis-related gene, rbcL. The respons...

Purpose: To investigate phenolic levels, phytophenolic profiles and total antioxidant activities of Oryza sativa, unpolished Thai rice. Methods: Unpolished Thai rice strains of Leum Phua, Klam, Hawm Nil and Black Rose were measured for antioxidant activity using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2’-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) and ferric reducing antioxidant power...

Look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see, and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. Knowledge is relative to time and place, never absolute across time and space (Patton, 2002) Contents CONTENTS CONTENTS ABSTRACT LIST OF PAPERS

Recently, a welcome trend has emerged - in addition to the traditional studies on contents and states of consciousness, levels of consciousness have become a matter of research. However, there are some conceptual and methodological difficulties with this research - the labels used for empirical measurement of levels are ambiguous and underspecified while the research on neural correlates of con...

Simulation with integrated parameter optimization of a given model structure is a well-established technique today. However, with increasing system complexity and flexibility the number of possible structure variants increases. Therefore the potential benefit of automatic model structure optimization becomes significant. During optimization, the introduced framework supports automatic parameter...

Methods of storing, managing and presenting educational multimedia data are proposed. Application of these methods to interactive synchronous and asynchronous Distance Learning systems is discussed. An example system based on the proposed solution is presented in details. The system uses clean organization of educational material and enables storage, management, and presentation of various type...
