Novel Thiosemicarbazone Quantum Dots in the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease Combining In Silico Models Using Fingerprints and Physicochemical Descriptors.

Searching for thiosemicarbazone derivatives with the potential to inhibit acetylcholinesterase for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an important current goal. The QSAR, QSAR, and QSAR models were constructed using binary fingerprints and physicochemical (PC) descriptors of 129 thiosemicarbazone compounds screened from a database of 3791 derivatives. The and values for the QSAR, QSAR, and QSAR models are greater than 0.

Vygotsky's, Leontiev's and Engeström's Cultural-Historical (Activity) Theories: Overview, Clarifications and Implications.

At the social turn in education, Vygotsky's cultural-historical/sociocultural theory (VST) has become particularly influential. There are other cultural-historical traditions associated with VST, including Leontiev's and Engeström's versions of cultural-historical activity theory (CHAT). These approaches are frequently conflated, resulting in confusion that can be consequential in interpreting educational research findings.

Mining high occupancy patterns to analyze incremental data in intelligent systems.

High occupancy pattern mining has been recently studied as an improved method for frequent pattern mining. It considers the proportion of each pattern in the transactions where the pattern occurred. The results of high occupancy pattern mining can be employed for automated control systems in order to make decisions.

Casimir Effect in Yang-Mills Theory in D=2+1.

We study, for the first time, the Casimir effect in non-Abelian gauge theory using first-principles numerical simulations. Working in two spatial dimensions at zero temperature, we find that closely spaced perfect chromoelectric conductors attract each other with a small anomalous scaling dimension. At large separation between the conductors, the attraction is exponentially suppressed by a new massive quantity, the Casimir mass, which is surprisingly different from the lowest glueball mass.

Herbicide/Zn-Al-layered double hydroxide hybrid composite: synthesis and slow/controlled release properties.

The herbicide glyphosate (GLY) or 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acids (2,4D) was intercalated in the interlayer region of a Zn-Al-layered double hydroxide (LDH) to obtain LDH-GLY or the LDH-2,4D hybrid composite because of its controlled release. Compared to the physically mixed herbicides, the LDH-herbicide hybrid composite displayed slow-release properties in decarbonated distilled water. The release rate of herbicides was found to be dependent on the carbonate and chloride anion concentrations in solution.

Contributions of Nearly-Degenerate States to the Photoelectron Spectra of the Vanadium Dicarbide Anion.

A theoretical study by using a wide variety of quantum chemical methods has been carried out to investigate the nature of the ionization processes that are responsible for the experimental observed photoelectron spectra of the anionic VC stoichiometry. In agreement with previous studies, the most stable structures for the anionic and neutral vanadium dicarbide species were unambiguously found to be cyclic isomers. However, concerning the nature of the ground state of the anionic cluster there appear to be two candidates that are nearly degenerate.

In-house development of an FPGA-based MCA8K for gamma-ray spectrometer.

The objective of this work is domestic development of electronics instruments. It used for measuring ionization radiation and practical training at Nuclear Research Institute (NRI), Dalat, Vietnam. The aim of this work is to study and develop a novel MCA8k for Gamma-ray spectrometer concerning experimental nuclear physics.

Molecular systematic study of Levl. (Brassicaceae) using internal transcribed spacer sequence of nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS) and chloroplast L and L-F sequences.

The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of nuclear ribosomal DNA, L and L-F genes of Levl. (family Brassicaceae) were sequenced and analyzed with the sequence of related species retrieved from NCBI GenBank to detect pattern of evolutionary differentiation. All trees resulting from combined sequence analyses data of ITS, L and L-F gene resolve that - an endemic species to South Korea clade with (100% bootstrap support).
