Study of the First Hours of Microvinification by the Use of Osmotic Stress-response Genes as Probes
2002
Summary When yeast cells are inoculated into grape must for vinification they find stress conditions because of osmolarity, which is due to very high sugar concentration, and pH lower than 4. In this work an analysis of the expression of three osmotic stress induced genes ( GPD1 , HSP12 and HSP104 ) under microvinification conditions is shown as a way to probe those stress situations and the regulatory mechanisms that control them. The results indicate that during the first hours of microvinification there is an increase in the GPD1 mRNA levels with a maximum about one hour after inoculation, and a decrease in the amount of HSP12 and HSP104 mRNAs, although with differences between them. The…
Zemesgrāmatā nostiprināmās tiesības
2016
Bakalaura darba tēma ir „Zemesgrāmatā nostiprināmās tiesības”. Darba mērķis ir noskaidrot to tiesību loku, kuras iespējams nostiprināt zemesgrāmatā, kā arī noskaidrot zemesgrāmatā ierakstāmos tiesību aprobežojumus un nodrošinājumus. Bakalaura darbs sastāv no trijām nodaļām, kurās aplūkotas zemesgrāmata nostiprināmās lietu tiesības, zemesgrāmatā nostiprināmās saistību tiesībās, ka arī zemesgrāmatā ierakstāmie tiesību aprobežojumi un nodrošinājumi. Bakalaura darba galvenie secinājumi: jauna tiesību institūta – apbūves tiesību regulējums ir pārlieku plašs, un to nepieciešams konkretizēt; zemesgrāmatā nostiprināmas ne tikai lietu tiesi…
A Chromogenic Probe for the Selective Recognition of Sarin and Soman Mimic DFP
2014
The synthesis, characterization and sensing features of a novel probe 1 for the selective chromogenic recognition of diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP), a sarin and soman mimic, in 99:1 (v/ v) water/acetonitrile and in the gas phase is reported. Colour modulation is based on the combined reaction of phosphorylation of 1 and fluoride-induced hydrolysis of a silyl ether moiety. As fluoride is a specific reaction product of the reaction between DFP and the OH group, the probe shows a selective colour modulation in the presence of this chemical. Other nerve agent simulants, certain anions, oxidant species and other organophosphorous compounds were unable to induce colour changes in 1. This is one…
Reflection scanning microscopy.
1992
To image nontransparent samples we have utilized a special type of scanning-probe microscope that is referred to here as a reflection scanning microscope. The reflection scanning microscope provides a method for producing a scanned point light source as well as a system for collecting the light that is reflected by the sample. The system, which uses an optical fiber coupler, is easily installed on an existing photon scanning tunneling microscope. A calculation of the coupling coefficient between the natural propagation mode of the optical fiber and the light that is reflected by the sample is presented along with a comparison between calculated and measured values of the intensity of the li…
Imaging of surface plasmon propagation and edge interaction using a photon scanning tunneling microscope
1994
We report the direct imaging of surface plasmon propagation on thin silver films using the photon scanning tunneling microscope. It is found that the surface plasmon remains tightly confined in the original launch direction with insignificant scattering to other momentum states. A propagation length of 13.2 \ensuremath{\mu}m is measured at \ensuremath{\lambda}=632.8 nm. We also present images showing the interaction of a surface plasmon with the edge of the metal film supporting it. The most remarkable feature is the absence of specularly reflected beam.
Magnetic Domain Imaging with a Photoemission Microscope
1997
ABSTRACTPhotoelectron emission microscopy (PEEM) has proven to be a versatile analytical technique in surface science. When operated with circularly polarized light in the soft x-ray regime, however, photoemission microscopy offers a unique combination of magnetic and chemical information. Exploiting the high brilliance and circular polarization available at a helical undulator beamline, the lateral resolution in the imaging of magnetic domain structures may be pushed well into the sub-micrometer range. Using a newly designed photoemission microscope we show that under these circumstances not only domains, but also domain walls can be selectively investigated. The high sensitivity of the te…
A computer controlled patterning system for scanning probe microscopes
1999
Abstract A pattern generator system for lithography based on scanning force microscopes has been developed. Patterns to be miniaturized onto a chip can be scanned or drawn by any common graphical program. The pattern file is used to control a voltage simultaneously with the microscope probe scanning the surface of the substrate. The voltage can be used in numerous different ways to manipulate the substrate, depending on the lithographic method preferred. We have demonstrated the system by adding this voltage to the z -piezo voltage of the scanner, in order to make the probe plow the pattern into a film spinned on the sample. To maintain linearity in zooming in and rotating the scanning dire…
<title>Scanning probe microscopy of nanocrystalline iridium oxide thin films</title>
2003
Structural investigations of nanocrystalline iridium oxide thin films, prepared by dc magnetron sputtering technique were performed by scanning probe microscopy (SPM). SPM studies, using both atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM), indicate that the thin films are composed of grains with a size of about 20-50 nm. Fine crystallinity and small RMS microroughness of the films, being well below 2 nm, make iridium oxide thin films promising candidates for nanolithographic applications. The possibility to perform nanolithograhpic processes at a scale of less than 150 nm was successfully examined in AFM and STM modes.© (2003) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Societ…
