Abstract:
Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) is an engineered wood product made by laminating dimensional or structural composite lumber in alternating orthogonal layers. Compared to Canada and Europe, CLT is a novel product to the US. With the additions included in the 2021 International Building Code (IBC), CLT material properties, especially rolling shear, would need to be explored. The increasing demand for softwood lumber, along with the increase of demand of CLT panel production, could place a burden and surpass the domestic softwood supply. Rolling shear is a phenomenon that occurs when the wood fibers

Previously, neither the effective charge on the Keggin ion nor the pillar densities achieved were known with any certainty since the analyses of Al and Si present substantial difficulty.

Abstract:
Background: Abnormal thrombus formation and occlusion of a vessel is one of the main events of cardiovascular disease. A main component of the thrombus is the protein fibrin, which is formed by proteolytic cleavage of its precursor fibrinogen by the serine protease thrombin. The cleavage of fibrinogen to fibrin releases fibrinopeptides from the E-region of the molecule which leads to the exposure of peptide sequences termed knobs A and B. The knobs A and B on one fibrin molecule are able to spontaneously interact to binding pockets (termed holes a and holes b) via hydrogen bonds forming half s

In the last decade, the use of cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels as load bearing elements have become a usual solution for buildings and structures with an upward trend internationally.

In addition, the prefabricated nature of the CLT panels in a controlled environment increases the overall building speed, reduces dramatically the erection time, and makes it an even more competitive structural material compared to more traditional ones like concrete and steel.

All MOS sample-and-hold circuits suffer to a greater or lesser extent from clock-feedthrough (CLFT), also called charge-injection.

This error can lead to considerable voltage change across the capacitor, and predicting the extent of the induced error potentials is important to circuit designers.

FXa is first converted to FXaβ by excision of a small C-terminal peptide and then proteolyzed at Lys330 in the autolysis loop to yield Xa33/13, which cannot participate in clotting. Instead, these cleavages confer novel fibrinolytic function to Xa33/13 as a tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) cofactor, thereby accelerating plasmin ge

Abstract:
The use of timber in building structures is steadily increasing. cross laminated timber (CLT) is an engineered wood product made of an uneven number of layers of lamellas glued at an angle of 90 degrees to each other. This gives CLT high stiffness and strength to bending in all directions, and capability of taking load both in-plane and out-of-plane. Due to the large size of CLT elements, they allow for quick assembly of strong structures. Due to both economic and environmental reasons it is important for producers of CLT to optimize the use of the wood material by using the timber with higher

Abstract:
Endocytic trafficking of platelet surface receptors plays a role in the accumulation of granule cargo (i.e. fibrinogen and VEGF) and thus could contribute to hemostasis, angiogenesis, or inflammation. However, the mechanisms of platelet endocytosis are poorly understood. The small GTP-binding protein, ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (Arf6), regulates integrin trafficking in nucleated cells; therefore, we posited that Arf6 functions similarly in platelets. To address this, we generated platelet-specific, Arf6 knockout mice. Arf6-/- platelets had a storage defect for fibrinogen but not other cargo, im

Abstract:
The confocal microscopy imaging techniques, which allow optical sectioning, have been successfully exploited in biomedical studies. Biomedical scientists can benefit from more realistic visualization and much more accurate diagnosis by processing and analysing on a three-dimensional image data. The lack of efficient image compression standards makes such large volumetric image data slow to transfer over limited bandwidth networks. It also imposes large storage space requirements and high cost in archiving and maintenance. Conventional two-dimensional image coders do not take into account inter

Abstract:
Statins are 3-hydroxy, 3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors, which block the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway to lower total serum levels and LDL-cholesterol. The cholesterol pathway also provides a supply of isoprenoids (farnesyl and geranylgeranyl) for the prenylation of signaling molecules, which include the families of Ras and Rho small GTPases. Prenyl groups provide a membrane anchor that is essential for the correct membrane localisation and function of these proteins. Statins deplete cells of lipid geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP) thereby inhibiting progression of
