Microarrays as Model Biosensor Platforms to Investigate the Structure and Affinity of Aptamers by Jennifer A. Martin, Yaroslav Chushak, Jorge L. Chávez, Joshua A. Hagen, Nancy Kelley-Loughnane

“…The results indicate a minimum distance (linker length) from the surface and thymine nucleobase linker provides reproducible binding across varying conditions. An indirect labeling method, where the target was labeled with a biotin followed by a brief Cy3-streptavidin incubation, provided a higher signal-to-noise ratio and over two orders of magnitude improvement in limit of detection, compared to direct Cy3-protein labeling. …”

A generic self-learning emotional framework for machines by Alberto Hernández-Marcos, Eduardo Ros

“…Applied in a case study, an artificial neural network trained on unlabeled agent’s experiences successfully learned and identified eight basic emotional patterns that are situationally coherent and reproduce natural emotional dynamics. Validation through an emotional attribution survey, where human observers rated their pleasure-arousal-dominance dimensions, showed high statistical agreement, distinguishability, and strong alignment with experimental psychology accounts. …”

Estados Unidos como una nación en desarrollo: consideraciones sobre las peculiaridades de la historia estadunidense by Stefan Link, Noam Maggor

“…Este artículo argumenta que falta una explicación sólida para el ascenso de los Estados Unidos: no se puede encontrar en una literatura de historia económica centrada en las dotaciones de factores ni en la historiografía americanista internalista, que a menudo reproduce relatos de modernización sobredeterminados inspirados por Max Weber. …”

La producción y comercialización de bacanora como estrategia de desarrollo regional en la sierra sonorense by Luis Núñez Noriega, Vidal Salazar Solano

“…En el proceso de tecnificación, la parte agronómica del proyecto ha sido fácilmente adoptada debido a los conocimientos agrícolas que se tienen en la región, además de que la domesticación del Agave angustifolia ha sido lograda con éxito en parte debido al amplio conocimiento de la fisiología de la planta y del entorno geográfico en donde se reproduce. No menos importante para garantizar el desarrollo de la industria del bacanora resulta el entorno institucional y normativo, donde destaca la obtención de una Denominación de Origen, de la Norma Oficial Mexicana que garantiza la calidad al consumidor, la creación del Consejo Sonorense Promotor de la Regulación de Bacanora, la Asociación de Productores de Agave y Bacanora, así como el compromiso de instituciones académicas y de investigación que trabajan con los productores para generar conocimiento científico y tecnología apropiada para el desarrollo de la tradicional industria sonorense.…”

INTERPASSIVITY AS A SUBJECTIVE EFFECT OF MODERN MEDIA-CULTURE: TO THE STATEMENT OF PROBLEM by Olena V. Khodus

“…It is proved that in the modern media culture, the subject is not so much a passive spectator, observer, collector information and events to represent relevant interested agents. He also actively reproduces itself in a form of "perceived privacy", which allows special mode of the experiences of private emotions "alone with everybody." …”

Foreigner in contemporary Japanese state discourse: Constructing differences between the nation and the Other by D. S. Alekseev

“…The findings show that the analyzed materials reproduce the boundaries between Japanese people and foreigners, rearticulate Japan’s cultural uniqueness, and implicitly reinforce the narrative of mono-ethnicity. …”

A Method for Quantitative Evaluation of Seismic Stability of Loess Slope Based on the Shaking Table Model Test by Pu Xiaowu, Wang Lanmin, Wang Ping, Chai Shaofeng, Xu Shiyang

“…The large-scale shaking table model test, which can directly reproduce the process of slope instability and failure, is an important technical means for the prediction and evaluation of slope seismic stability. …”

Simple assay quantifying sediment resuspension effects on marine carbon storage by Ines Bartl, Tegan Evans, Jenny Hillman, Simon Thrush

“…This oversight is often due to a lack of empirical data linked to low sampling resolution of the heterogeneous seafloor, highlighting the need for a simple, fast, reproducible quantification approach. We address this gap by presenting a simple sediment resuspension assay that allows highly replicated sampling of heterogeneous sediments, quantifying the immediate impact on organic carbon mineralization. …”

Human Evolution: the Limits of Technocentrism by M. I. Boichenko

“…However, this creates certain limits of such transformations: technology cannot replace humans in their ability to self-reproduce. Technology is always an element of social communication: the success of communication is interdependent on the success of the technology. …”

Mortality Clustering in the Family. Fast Life History Trajectories and the Intergenerational Transfer of Infant Death in Late 19th- and Early 20th-Century Antwerp, Belgium by Robyn Donrovich, Paul Puschmann, Koen Matthijs

“…The results on the age of the mother at birth, her marital status, as well as the living environment suggest that at least part of the intergenerational transfer in infant mortality can be explained on the basis of life history theory: women who grew up in a high-risk family tended to reproduce earlier and faster, and often raised their children without a partner. …”

Excited states of mono- and biruthenium(II) complexes adsorbed on nanocrystalline titanium dioxide studied by electroabsorption spectroscopy by Daniel Pelczarski, Błażej Gierczyk, Maciej Zalas, Malgorzata Makowska-Janusik, Waldemar Stampor

“…Due to the difficulties arising from standard analysis based on Liptay formalism, we have for the first time successfully reproduced the EA spectra of the Ru/TiO2 systems using the time-dependent density functional (TDDFT) calculations, incorporating into the Hamiltonian a term describing the interaction of a molecule with the local electric field it experiences from the TiO2 structure and the neighboring Ru complex molecules, without additional assumptions about the lineshape of the EA signal. …”

Quasinormal modes of three $$(2+1)$$ ( 2 + 1 ) -dimensional black holes in string theory, conformal gravity, and Hu–Sawicki F(R) theory via the Heun function by F. Naderi, A. Rezaei-Aghdam

“…It turned out that the procedure based on the Heun function, beside reproducing the previously known results obtained via hypergeometric function for the BTZ and Lifshitz black hole solution in conformal gravity, brings up new families of quasinormal frequencies, which can also contain purely imaginary modes. …”

Z′ Portal Dark Matter in the Minimal B-L Model by Satomi Okada

“…The so-called minimal seesaw works with the other two right-handed neutrinos and reproduces the current neutrino oscillation data. We consider the case that the dark matter particle communicates with the SM particles through the B-L gauge boson (ZB-L′ boson) and obtain a lower bound on the B-L gauge coupling (αB-L) as a function of the ZB-L′ boson mass (mZ′) from the observed dark matter relic density. …”
