Abstract:
Background: The aging process is accompanied by low secretion of sex hormones and testicular apoptosis. The antioxidant properties of thymoquinone (TQ) may prevent the effects of aging. Therefore, in the present study, the effects of different doses of TQ were investigated on sperm parameters, testosterone level, apoptosis, and oxidative stress in a mouse model of D-galactose-induced aging. Methods: In this experimental study, 30 adult male mice were randomly divided into 5 groups. The control group did not receive any injections, while the D-galactose group received an intraperitoneal injection of 300 mg/kg of D-galactose for 42 days. The TQ1-TQ3 groups received intraperitoneal injections of 5, 2.5, and 1.25 mg/kg of TQ plus D-galactose, respectively for 14 days (from the 1st to the 14th day of the experiment). The morphometric analysis, testicular apoptosis examination, and sperm analysis were performed, and testosterone level, total antioxidant capacity, and malondialdehyde level were evaluated on day 42 of the experiment. Data were analyzed using SPSS. Results: Administration of TQ in the TQ1 group caused a significant difference in sperm parameters, compared to the D-galactose group (P<0.05). The lowest amount of positive tunnel cells was related to 5 mg/kg of TQ and the highest to 2.5 mg/kg of TQ. There was no significant difference in the parameters of seminal vesicles, epididymis, prostate, and testis between the groups (P>0.05). The malondialdehyde level were decreased in the TQ1-TQ3 groups, compared to the D-galactose group (P<0.001). On the other hand, the total antioxidant capacity was increased significantly in the TQ1 group, compared to the D-galactose group (P<0.001). Conclusion: Administration of 5 mg of TQ for 14 days improved sperm quality and biochemical parameters, while reducing apoptotic cells of the testes in a mouse model of aging.

Abstract:
This paper deals with positive solutions of a class of nonlinear eigenvalue problems. For a quasilinear elliptic problem (#) - div (ϕ(|∇u|)∇u) = λf(x,u) in Ω, u = 0 on ∂Ω, we assume asymptotic conditions on ϕ and f such as ϕ(t) ~ tp0-2, f(x,t) ~ tq0-1as t → +0 and ϕ(t) ~ tp1-2, f(x,t) ~ tq1-1as t → ∞. The combined effects of sub-nonlinearity (p0> q0) and super-nonlinearity (p1< q1) with the subcritical term f(x,u) imply the existence of at least two positive solutions of (#) for 0 < λ < Λ.

Abstract:
The morphology of the active layer plays a crucial role in determining device performance and stability for organic solar cells. All-polymer solar cells (All-PSCs), showing robust and stable morphologies, have been proven to give better thermal stability than their fullerene counterparts. However, outstanding thermal stability is not always the case for polymer blends, and the limiting factors responsible for the poor thermal stability in some All-PSCs, and how to obtain higher efficiency without losing stability, still remain unclear. By studying the morphology of poly [2,3-bis (3-octyloxyphenyl) quinoxaline-5,8-diyl-alt-thiophene-2,5-diyl](TQ1)/poly[4,8-bis[5-(2-ethylhexyl)-2-thienyl]benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene-alt-(4-(2-ethylhexyl)-3-fluorothieno[3,4-b]thiophene-)-2-carboxylate-2-6-diyl]] (PCE10)/PNDI-T10 blend systems, we found that the rearranged molecular packing structure and phase separation were mainly responsible for the poor thermal stability in devices containing PCE10. The TQ1/PNDI-T10 devices exhibited an improved PCE with a decreased π–π stacking distance after thermal annealing; PCE10/PNDI-T10 devices showed a better pristine PCE, however, thermal annealing induced the increased π–π stacking distance and thus inferior hole conductivity, leading to a decreased PCE. Thus, a maximum PCE could be achieved in a TQ1/PCE10/PNDI-T10 (1/1/1) ternary system after thermal annealing resulting from their favorable molecular interaction and the trade-off of molecular packing structure variations between TQ1 and PCE10. This indicates that a route to efficient and thermal stable All-PSCs can be achieved in a ternary blend by using material with excellent pristine efficiency, combined with another material showing improved efficiency under thermal annealing.

Resumo O presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar o comportamento competitivo de atletas jovens e adultos da modalidade de handebol. Foram avaliados 143 atletas jovens (16,1 ± 0,7 anos) de ambos os sexos participantes dos Jogos Escolares da Juventude e 69 atletas adultos (24,0 ± 4,3 anos) do sexo masculino, participantes do campeonato Pan-Americano de clubes no ano de 2009. Para avaliação do comportamento competitivo utilizou-se o instrumento Sport Orientation Questionnaire com as subescalas: competir (TQ1), vencer (TQ2) e estabelecer metas (TQ3). Para análise dos dados utilizou-se estatística descritiva e o teste de Mann-Whitney, considerando 5% de significância. Tanto os atletas jovens quanto os adultos relataram maior importância para o domínio TQ3, havendo diferença estatisticamente significante para este domínio (9 ± 4 vs. 8 ± 3) em que os adultos relataram maior importância para o TQ3 quando comparados aos jovens. Sendo assim, podemos concluir que os atletas escolares e atletas de rendimento apresentaram comportamento competitivo semelhante, ou seja, existe uma tendência elevada na percepção da vitória dentro do processo competitivo, independente das diferenças existentes na idade e no tempo de prática, porém observa-se em ambos os grupos uma maior ênfase para o estabelecimento de metas, sendo que os atletas de rendimento relataram maior importância para o TQ3 em comparação aos jovens, respectivamente 8,0 e 9,0.

Abstract:
To facilitate industrial applications, as well as for environmental and health purposes, there is a need to find less hazardous solvents for processing the photoactive layer of organic solar cells. As there are vast amounts of possibilities to combine organic solvents and solutes, it is of high importance to find paths to discriminate among the solution chemistry possibilities on a theoretical basis. Using Hansen solubility parameters (HSP) offers such a path. We report on some examples of solvent blends that have been found by modelling HSP for an electron donor polymer (TQ1) and an electron acceptor polymer (N2200) to match solvent blends of less hazardous solvents than those commonly used. After the theoretical screening procedure, solubility tests were performed to determine the HSP parameters relevant for the TQ1:N2200 pair in the calculated solvent blends. Finally, thin solid films were prepared by spin-coating from the solvent blends that turned out to be good solvents to the donor-acceptor pair. Our results show that the blend film morphology prepared in this way is similar to those obtained from chloroform solutions.

Abstract:
Abstract The solubility of polymers depends on how well the parameters of the polymers and solvents used resemble each other. The more similar the parameters are, the more likely the polymers are to be dissolved. Hansen´s solubility parameters (HSP) tells us how dispersion forces, polar forces and hydrogen bonding influences the structure of the polymers and thereby their solubility. To be able to manufacture effective organic polymer solar cells in the future, we need more knowledge of how polymers and organic solvents interact with each other. This is an essay on how you could gather more knowledge of how primarily the polymer Poly{[N,N′-bis(2-octyldodecyl)-naphthalene-1,4,5,8-bis(dicarboximide)-2,6-diyl]-alt-5,5′-(2,2′-bithiophene)} , (N2200), but also the polymer Poly[2,3-bis-(3-octyloxyphenyl) quinoxaline-5,8-diyl-alt-thiophene-2,5-diyl], (TQ1) dissolves in different organic solvent blends. It is also a test on using the computer software Hansen´s Solubility Parameters in Practice (HSPiP), to estimate the HSP:s for the polymers and the polymer blend. The HSPiP was good at estimating the Hansen solubility parameters for the solubility test on N2200. The software´s drawing tool in the do it yourself- part (DIY) that is used to create a structure code-string (SMILES) for the polymer, did not work as well in this project. The Optimizer in HSPiP made good suggestions of organic solvent blends for N2200 and TQ1, that dissolved the polymers. o-Xylene and tetrahydronaphthalene were the solvents that dissolved N2200 in the solubility test in 24 h and 50 ֯C and among the organic solvent blends it was toluene/1-methylnaphthalene, tetrahydronaphthalene/methyl acetate, tetrahydronaphthalene/o-Xylene and tetrahydronaphthalene/2-methyltetrahydrofuran that were able to dissolve the polymers in the concentrations of 10.0 mg/ml. N2200 dissolved very well up to 10.0 mg/ml in the calculated solvent blends but on the other hand, the samples became very viscous at that concentration and hardly fluent, if fluent at all. It was more difficult to find organic solvent blends that could dissolve N2200 than it was for TQ1. TQ1 dissolved in all solvent ratios that dissolved N2200.
Sammanfattning   Löslighet hos polymerer beror på hur löslighetsparametrarna hos polymeren och det lösningsmedel man använder, liknar varandra. Ju mer löslighetsparametrarna liknar varandra, desto bättre löser sig polymeren i lösningsmedlet. Hansen´s löslighetsparametrar (HSP) talar om hur dispersionskrafter, polära krafter och vätebindningar påverkar strukturer hos polymerer och därigenom deras löslighet. För att kunna tillverka effektiva organiska polymera solceller i framtiden, behöver vi mer kunskap i hur polymerer och organiska lösningsmedel interagerar med varandra. Detta är en uppsats i hur man kan gå tillväga för att ta reda på mer om hur främst polymeren Poly{[N,N′-bis(2-octyldodecyl)-naphthalene-1,4,5,8-bis(dicarboximide)-2,6-diyl]-alt-5,5′-(2,2′-bithiophene)} , (N2200), men också polymeren Poly[2,3-bis-(3-octyloxyphenyl) quinoxaline-5,8-diyl-alt-thiophene-2,5-diyl], (TQ1) löser sig i olika blandningar av organiska lösningsmedel. Det är också ett försök till att använda dataprogrammet, Hansen´s Solubility Parameters in Practice (HSPiP), för att estimera löslighet hos polymererna och polymerblandningen. Det visade sig att HSPiP, var bra på att estimera Hansens löslighetsparametrar för löslighetstestet på N2200. Programmets ritverktyg i DIY (do it yourself/gör det själv), för att skapa SMILES-kod (kod för den ritade molekylens struktur) för polymeren, visade sig vara mindre bra. Optimeraren i HSPiP visade sig kunna föreslå organiska lösningsmedelsblandningar för N2200 och TQ1 som kunde lösa polymererna. o-Xylene och tetrahydronaftalen var de som löste N2200 i löslighetstestet på 24 h med 50 ֯C och av blandningarna var det toluen/1-methylnaftalen, tetrahydronaftalen/metylacetat, tetrahydronaftalen/o-Xylene och tetrahydronaftalene/2-metyltetrahydrofuran som kunde lösa polymererna i koncentrationer av 10.0 mg/ml. N2200 löste sig bra ända upp till 10.0 mg/ml för de beräknade lösningsmedelsblandningarna men däremot blev proverna väldigt viskösa i den koncentrationen och knappt flytande, om alls flytande. Det var svårare att hitta organiska lösningsmedelsblandningar som fungerade för N2200 medan TQ1 kunde lösa sig i allt som fungerade för N2200.

Abstract:
Organic solar cells have shown great promise of becoming a cheaper alternative to inorganic solar cells. Additionally, they can also be made semitransparent. To avoid using expensive indium tin oxide electrodes in organic solar cells the electrodes can be made from conductive polymer, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS). However, these so-called PEDOT-PEDOT solar cells are prone to short-circuiting. The work behind this thesis thus aimed to find the cause of these short circuits. The initial working hypothesis assumed the hygroscopic PSS in the bottom electrode could attract water across the active layer when the top electrode layer was applied. This would then swell the bottom electrode and cause the active layer to crack leading to short circuits. Accordingly, swelling was investigated as it was suspected to be the main cause of the shorts. This was achieved by coating reflective substrates with different layers from the solar cell, dropping water on top of the stack and then filming the thin film interference effects. SEM, AFM and IR were also used for further analysis. Although the bottom electrode swells, it was found that water does not cause permanent cracking. Instead, the research unveiled that water causes a formation of blisters, which are suspected to be made of PSS. The exact mechanism for the formation of the shorts remains unclear however.

Abstract:
Produzida por macrófagos e células dendríticas, a IL-27 é uma citocina heterodimérica capaz de induzir células Tr1 produtoras de IL-10 e consequentemente regular linfócitos Th1, Th2 e Th17, dependendo da doença envolvida. Partindo-se do pressuposto de que a infecção causada por Trypanosoma cruzi normalmente induz miocardite refletida pela migração intensa de linfócitos Th1 para o tecido cardíaco, nós analisamos o papel regulador da IL-27 nesta condição inflamatória. Nós inicialmente verificamos que a IL-27 foi prontamente induzida in vitro em células infectadas com T. cruzi. Para gerar miocardite intensa coordenada por linfócitos Th1, nós polarizamos linfócitos T naïves para o padrão Th1 na ausência de moléculas relacionadas ao perfil Th17 (camundongos IL-17R-/-, IL-23-/- e IL-6-/-). Como esperado, a inflamação cardíaca intensa e o dano tecidual foram observados na ausência das moléculas do padrão Th17, o que contribuiu para a morte prematura dos animais IL-17R-/-, IL-23-/- e IL-6-/-, precisa e notoriamente pela indução da migração excessiva de linfócitos Th1 para o tecido cardíaco via CXCL-9 e CXCL-10. Para explorar os mecanismos pelos quais a IL-27 controla a miocardite induzida pelo T. cruzi, nós encontramos um recrutamento substancial de macrófagos produtores de IL-27 para o tecido cardíaco, o qual foi mediado pelas quimiocinas CCL3 e CCL4 na ausência de moléculas do padrão Th17. Para determinar quais os receptores necessários para a produção de IL-27, nós observamos que macrófagos derivados da medula óssea de camundongos deficientes de TLR4-/-, TLR9-/- e NLRP3-/- aboliram completamente a produção desta citocina após a infecção in vitro com T. cruzi, enquanto o receptor TLR2 foi dispensável. Nós também verificamos que macrófagos produtores de IL-27 suprimiram linfócitos Th1 através da indução de células Tr1 produtoras de IL-10 após a infecção com T. cruzi. Em seguida, nós avaliamos se a IL-27 foi correlacionada com a proteção cardíaca durante a doença de Chagas. Nós observamos níveis séricos elevados de IL-27 tanto em pacientes com a forma clínica indeterminada ou cardíaca leve, enquanto pacientes com cardiomiopatia moderada ou grave produziram níveis reduzidos de IL-27. Neste estudo, nós descrevemos um novo mecanismo regulador desempenhado por macrófagos produtores de IL-27 no controle da miocardite induzida por T. cruzi. Macrófagos produtores de IL-27 podem suprimir processos inflamatórios desencadeados por linfócitos Th1, os principais vilões na doença de Chagas.
IL-27 is a heterodimeric cytokine produced by macrophages and dendritic cells known to induce IL-10-producing Tr1 cells and to regulate Th1, Th2, and Th17 lymphocytes, depending on the underlying disease. Because the infection caused by Trypanosoma cruzi normally induces myocarditis mirrored by an outstanding migration of Th1 cells to the heart tissue, we analyzed the regulatory role of IL-27 in this inflammatory condition. We firstly verified that IL-27 was promptly induced by in vitro T. cruzi-infected spleen cells. To generate a robust myocarditis coordinated by Th1 lymphocytes, we polarized lymphocytes to a Th1 pattern by infecting mice in the absence of Th17-related molecules (IL-17R-/-, IL-23-/-, and IL-6-/- mice). As expected, an impressive cardiac inflammation and damage was observed in the absence of Th17-related molecules, leading IL-17R-/-, IL-23-/-, and IL-6-/- mice to the premature death, precisely and notably by inducing an exuberant Th1 migration to the heart tissue via CXCL9 and CXCL10 chemokines. To explore the mechanisms by which IL-27 controls T. cruzi-induced myocarditis, we found a striking recruitment of IL-27-producing macrophages to the heart tissue mediated by increased levels of CCL3 and CCL4 chemokines in the absence of Th17-associated molecules. To gain further insights into the receptors required to IL-27 production, we observed that bone marrow-derived macrophages from TLR4-/-, TLR9-/-, and NLRP3-/- mice completely abolished IL-27 production after in vitro T. cruzi infection, while TLR2 was dispensable. We also verified that IL-27-producing macrophages supressed Th1 lymphocytes by inducing IL-10-producing Tr1 cells after T. cruzi infection. We next assessed whether IL-27 was correlated to cardiac protection during Chagas Disease. We observed augmented serum levels of IL-27 in either patients with indeterminate (asymptomatic) form or mild cardiac form, whereas patients with moderate or severe cardiomyopathy were poor producers of IL-27. Here, we described a novel regulatory mechanism developed by IL-27-producing macrophages in the control of T. cruzi-induced myocarditis. IL-27-producing macrophages can suppress inflammatory processes caused by Th1 lymphocytes, the bona fide culprits of Chagas Disease.

Abstract:
Historically society has, at various periods in time, protected the health, safety and welfare of those most disadvantaged by using socially based collective mechanisms. Within the United Kingdom the model used to achieve this collective protection has developed from proscription, under the Factories Acts, to a more self-regulatory and risk based approach advocated by Lord Roben's under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and its relevant statutory provisions. The body tasked with providing examples of good practice and regulating the provisions of the Act, The Health and Safety Executive, advocate a management-led model using the principles of total quality management (TQM). This model is one which purports to focus on a systematic and empowered approach by involving all staff in the evaluation and reduction of systematic error within processes throughout the whole organisation. It can be argued that the contemporary disadvantaged are no longer the children of the industrial revolution but are those members of society who seek employment yet are handicapped by society through disability or impairment- the paradigm of disability. This study sought to explore this paradigm of disability and TQM within the context of two contrasting industrial sectors - the engineering and retail sectors. The study sought to break new ground by exploring whether the TQM model, which advocates system totality, reduction in variation and continuous improvement as fundamental principles, does in fact provide improved cognitive adequacy (a construct of institutional responsibility, communication and problem resolution) within the paradigm of disability. The study used a triangulation methodology to collect qualitative data at the individual and institutional level. This involved a number of phases comprising group discussions, focus groups and self-completed questionnaires (n=1135) by economically active disabled, impaired and handicapped individuals and at the organisational level case study analysis (n=8) and self-completed questionnaires (n=2181) by institutional key players. Although the construct of disability is multifaceted, the study concluded that at the individual level a number of factors were perceived to be ranked higher and as such more important to disabled employees in maintaining their health, safety and welfare. These were further classified into 'software' and 'hardware' domains of a safety management system with institutional social support being most important. Social support comprised support, communication and trust and was perceived to be low at the organisational level. At the institutional or organisational level social support can be measured using the theory of cognitive adequacy comprising responsibility, communication and problem resolution. When measured at the organisational level, via the policy domain, cognitive adequacy was once more concluded to be low or absent. These results applied equally to individuals within both the retail and engineering sectors. The study also concluded that, at the organisational level, safety systems which can be categorised as formal did not exist to meet the needs of the disabled within the organisations studied. This was particularly evident at the policy domain level where it was noted that few companies had included provisions for the allocation of specifically defined responsibility and control. However there existed many informal sub-systems which had developed through group dynamics and personal interrelations. In many cases those tasked with operational responsibility were unaware of such sub-systems. There also existed many barriers within the disability paradigm to both the duty holder and disabled employees meeting specific duties under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974. In particular communication, both verbal and non-verbal, presented the highest ranked barrier to organisations achieving a high cognitive adequacy condition. Each construct was measured using contingency tables and log-linear analysis to determine any association between TQM and non-TQM organisations for the paradigm of disability. Significant differences in data acquisition, performance measurement and problem resolution existed between TQM and Non-TQM organisations. However in relation to the paradigm of disability, the study concluded that the data supported the null hypothesis that, in the context of the paradigm of disability, no significant differences were exhibited between the safety management systems (SMS) of organisations who had adopted TQM and those that had not. Holistically this study has provided a deeper understanding of the complexity of the disabled paradigm and safety provisions at work.

Av TS1-218 har skapats olika varianter (en dimer TS1-2182 och en mutant HE1-Q) med syftet att öka affinitet och retentionstid på platsen för dess verkan. I det här projektet försökte vi att testa och jämföra egenskaper hos alla 3 joderade antikropparna genom att inkubera odlade Hela Hep 2 tumörcellssfäroider med dessa antikroppar. Alla tre antikroppsvarianter visade god förmåga att penetrera sfäroider och att binda deras epitop i cytokeratin 8. Försöken visade att det fanns affinitetsskillnader mellan TS1-218 monomer, dimer och mutant vilket visade sig som olika inbindningsförmåga till sfäroiderna.

Abstract:
Abstract Technology qualification (TQ) has been employed to perform assessments to verify whether a new technology performs within pre-specified functional limits after an application. If a best available technology (BAT) is used in a new environment, it is considered as a new technology. The TQ is vital in the implementation of best available technology (BAT) in a new environment. Risk based technology qualification provides an optimal approach for performing TQ of a BAT when it is necessary to implement in a new environment. This manuscript first demonstrates the standard TQ process. Secondly, it presents development of a risk matrix for failure mode identification and consequence risk ranking (FMI&CRR). Thirdly, it demonstrates the use of FMI&CRR in a risk-based technology qualification process. Finally, it presents use of the risk matrix to perform TQ on moorings solutions that have been selected as a BAT for a floating wind turbine sub-system. Fuzzy inference system has been used to assess the risk rank to minimize the variability that causes due to experts’ performance variability. Illustrative risk based TQ assessment has been performed and presented. The developed risk based TQ process (TQP), fuzzy inference system supported risk rank estimation, and illustrative risk based TQ recommendation are significantly important for practitioners while performing FMI&CRR in larger scale offshore floating wind turbines’ TQ projects.

Abstract:
Abstract The study of the enhanced creep strength of conventional ferritic-martensitic (F/M) grade 91 steel by a thermomechanical treatment (TMT) to increase the precipitation of MX particles in the matrix was performed. Creep properties were evaluated by tests at constant load at temperatures that varied from 600 °C to 700 °C with different levels of stress for both steels: T91 and T91-TMT. The creep curves and main parameters for both steels in the different conditions were analysed. Results show a great improvement of creep strength of the T91 after the thermomechanical treatment in comparison with the conventional steel. T91-TMT presents a rupture life significantly higher than T91 and a decrease of the values of the minimum creep rate. An increase of the density of MX precipitates in the matrix of the T91-TMT due to the thermomechanical treatment in comparison with T91 can be also observed. A change in the fractography was also detected. T91-TMT specimens showed signs of brittle fracture instead of the ductile fracture, with the common necking effect detected in the T91.
