Yeast Killer Toxin-Like Candidacidal Ab6 Antibodies Elicited through the Manipulation of the Idiotypic Cascade
2014
A mouse anti-anti-anti-idiotypic (Id) IgM monoclonal antibody (mAb K20, Ab4), functionally mimicking a Wyckerhamomyces anomalus (Pichia anomala) killer toxin (KT) characterized by fungicidal activity against yeasts presenting specific cell wall receptors (KTR) mainly constituted by β-1,3-glucan, was produced from animals presenting anti-KT Abs (Ab3) following immunization with a rat IgM anti-Id KT-like mAb (mAb K10, Ab2). MAb K10 was produced by immunization with a KT-neutralizing mAb (mAb KT4, Ab1) bearing the internal image of KTR. MAb K20, likewise mAb K10, proved to be fungicidal in vitro against KT-sensitive Candida albicans cells, an activity neutralized by mAb KT4, and was capable of…
Biblioteka akademicka wobec nowych zadań - potrzeby i preferencje użytkowników
2015
Powszechny dostęp do technologii cyfrowych, informatycznych i telekomunikacyjnych powoduje nieodwracalne zmiany w organizacji dostępu do zasobów bibliotecznych. Efektywne zarządzanie tymi zasobami wymaga prowadzenia systematycznych badań wykorzystania poszczególnych rodzajów zasobów, zauważania zmian i tendencji użytkowników oraz uwzględniania ich potrzeb w globalnej polityce uzupełniania zasobów bibliotecznych. Celem artykułu jest między innymi porównanie oferty biblioteki akademickiej w zakresie dostępu do jej zasobów, usług informacyjnych oraz dydaktycznych z potrzebami i preferencjami użytkowników w oparciu o statystyki wykorzystania zasobów tradycyjnych i elektronicznych. Analiza zosta…
Cloning of cDNAs coding forCandida albicanscell surface proteins
1995
Two cDNA libraries were constructed from mRNAs obtained from yeast cells and germ-tubes of Candida albicans in lambda gt11. Immunoscreening with polyclonal antibodies raised against cell wall components allowed the detection of 29 positive clones. Two of these clones were selected for their specific reactivity with antisera either from yeast (clone 11Y) or germ-tubes (clone 24M). cDNA fragments were isolated by the digestion of lambda DNA with EcoRI. Southern blot analysis with these fragments as probes demonstrated homology with C. albicans DNA, and by Northern analysis two mRNAs transcripts were detected with sizes of approximately 1·5 kb for 11Y and 1·1 kb for 24M. Both transcripts were …
Visualization of Memory Map Information in Embedded System Design
2018
Data compression is a common requirement for displaying large amounts of information. The goal is to reduce visual clutter. The approach given in this paper uses an analysis of a data set to construct a visual representation. The visualization is compressed using the address ranges of the memory structure. This method produces a compressed version of the initial visualization, retaining the same information as the original. The presented method has been implemented as a Memory Designer tool for ASIC, FPGA and embedded systems using IP-XACT. The Memory Designer is a user-friendly tool for model based embedded system design, providing access and adjustment of the memory layout from a single v…
Architecture Enabling Adaptation of Data Integration Processes for a Research Information System
2018
Abstract Today, many efforts have been made to implement information systems for supporting research evaluation activities. To produce a good framework for research evaluation, the selection of appropriate measures is important. Quality aspects of the systems’ implementation should also not be overlooked. Incomplete or faulty data should not be used and metric computation formulas should be discussed and valid. Correctly integrated data from different information sources provide a complete picture of the scientific activity of an institution. Knowledge from the data integration field can be adapted in research information management. In this paper, we propose a research information system f…
ITIL Implementation: The Role of ITIL Software and Project Quality
2012
This research will investigate the implementation status of the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) reference processes and the influence of ITIL software quality and ITIL project quality on implementation status. The paper analyzes data from a survey of 160 Nordic companies.
Research production in high-impact journals of contemporary neuroscience: A gender analysis
2017
Neuroscience or Neural Science is a very active and interdisciplinary field that seeks to understand the brain and the nervous system. In spite of important advances made in recent decades, women are still underrepresented in neuroscience research output as a consequence of gender inequality in science overall. This study carries out a scientometric analysis of the 30 neuroscience journals (2009–2010) with the highest impact in the Web of Science database (Thomson Reuters) in order to quantitatively examine the current contribution of women in neuroscientific production, their pattern of research collaboration, scientific content, and the analysis of scientific impact from a gender perspect…
Is the Erich arch bar the best intermaxillary fixation method in maxillofacial fractures? : a systematic review
2015
Background Intermaxillary fixation is used to achieve proper occlusion during and after oral and maxillofacial fracture surgery. The aim of this systematic review was to compare Erich arch bar fixation with other intermaxillary fixation methods in terms of the operating time, safety during installation, oral health maintenance and occlusal stability. Material and Methods An electronic online search was conducted of the Scirus, PubMed, Ovid, Cochrane Library and VHL databases. A clinical trial dating from the inception of the data bases until August 2013 was selected. Studies that compared Erich arch bars with other intermaxillary fixation methods in patients older than 18 years-old were inc…
Discussing Wartime Collaboration in a Transnational Digital Space: The Framing of the UPA and the Latvian Legion in Wikipedia
2017
Mārtiņs Kaprāns and Mykola Makhortykh examine how memory wars and memory truces occur in a transnational space of digital media. Examining how the Ukrainian Insurgent Army and the Latvian Legion are represented on Wikipedia, the chapter discusses interactions between digital technology and the contentious memory of collaboration. To this end, it investigates the different framing strategies used to represent wartime memories in Wikipedia, the ways these strategies are developed by local editors’ communities, and the reception of Wikipedia’s representations of the past by national and transnational audiences. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the different forms of consensus used in…
Tensions in Online Communities: The Case of a Mass Size eParticipation Initiative
2017
Part 4: Critical Reflections; International audience; While Online Communities (OCs) are increasingly used to involve people in organizations and societies, few studies focus on how OC influence political decision making within eParticipation initiatives. This issue is explored through an interpretive case-study of the Italian Five Star Movement (M5S), a mass-size eParticipation political initiative recently founded by private citizens. The use of OCs is a common strategy to involve groups of people to easily connect on-line, cooperating on common and shared interests. We here focus on understanding the internal and external forces influencing on the OCs, to better understand how to manage …
