We present M[eye]cro an interaction technique to select on-screen objects and navigate menus through the synergistic use of eye-gaze thumb-to-finger microgestures. Thumb-to-finger microgestures are gestures performed with thumb a hand onto fingers same hand. The active body research on highlights expected properties including speed, availability eye-free interaction. Such make good candidate fo...

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) contamination in the food chain is a major cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). More than 60% of AFB1 related HCC carry p53 codon 249 mutations but the causal mechanism remains unclear. We found that 1) AFB1 induces two types of DNA adducts in human hepatocytes, AFB1-8,9-epoxide-deoxyguanosine (AFB1-E-dG) induced by AFB1-E and cyclic α-methyl-γ-hydroxy-1,N2-propano-dG (m...

A convenient, rapid, and one-pot method for the synthesis of azo dyes has been developed. In this protocol, diazotization reagent (ArN2+ -CrO3–SiO2) was prepared via grinding of aromatic amines, NaNO2, wet SiO2 and nano silica chromic acid (Nano-SCA) without solvent at room temperature. The obtained diazotization reagent was suff...

In the present work, geophysical model func[ions (GMFs) for altimeter wind speed measurements are described. These GMFs account for an effect of [he actual degree of sea development on the radar cro~ section by utilizing information on the significant wave height. The wind speed mertsurement accuracy achieved (the overall bias 0.1 m/s and the rms error about 1.6 m/s) is higher than the accuracy...

The virulent cos-type Streptococcus thermophilus phage DT1 was previously isolated from a mozzarella whey sample, and its complete genomic sequence is available. The putative ori of phage DT1 is characterized by three inverted and two direct repeats located in a noncoding region between orf36 and orf37. As the replication ability of the putative ori and flanking genes could not be established, ...

To investigate the role of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in the pathogenesis of primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), we infected human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8+) but EBV- PEL lines BC-3, CRO-AP/6, and CRO-AP/3 cells with the recombinant Akata EBV strain. All EBV-infected clones expressed EBER-1, EBNA-1, and LMP2A. The expression of LMP1 and LMP2B was variable. None, however, expressed EBNA2-6. The surface m...

Introduction Multidrug-resistant, Gram-negative infections, particularly due to carbapenem resistant organisms (CRO), have increased globally. Few studies reported on the burden of CRO in neonates from low-middle income countries (LMIC). This study aimed determine incidence and mortality rates culture-confirmed with a special focus neonatal unit LMIC. Materials Methods Positive bacterial cultur...
