Ferrichrome, a fungal-type siderophore, confers high ammonium tolerance to fission yeast by Po-Chang Chiu, Yuri Nakamura, Shinichi Nishimura, Toshitsugu Tabuchi, Yoko Yashiroda, Go Hirai, Akihisa Matsuyama, Minoru Yoshida

“…Ammonium is a preferred nitrogen source as it suppresses uptake and catabolism of less preferred nitrogen sources such as leucine through a mechanism called nitrogen catabolite repression (NCR). Therefore, the growth of fission yeast mutant cells with leucine auxotrophy is suppressed in the presence of high concentrations of ammonium. …”

Fast and Deterministic Underwater Point Cloud Registration for Multibeam Echo Sounder Data by Liang Zhao, Lan Cheng, Tingfeng Tan, Chun Cao, Feihu Zhang

“…Additionally, an outlier exclusion strategy is introduced to eliminate mismatches, significantly reducing the number of key-point correspondences and thereby improving registration efficiency. Experiments conducted on both public and real-world lake datasets demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a favorable balance between speed and accuracy, outperforming other tested methods and meeting the demands of contemporary research.…”

Infrared dim tiny-sized target detection based on feature fusion by Peng Zhang, Yaman Jing, Guodong Liu, Ziyang Chen, Xiaoyan Wu, Osami Sasaki, Jixiong Pu

“…Abstract Detection of infrared objects is essential for applications ranging from remote sensing to thermal imaging. In certain instances, such as when the infrared target is situated at a considerable distance from the detector, the detected object exhibits diminutive dimensions with a concurrently low signal intensity, leading to a challenge in achieving precision in object detection. …”

New Similarity of Triangular Fuzzy Number and Its Application by Xixiang Zhang, Weimin Ma, Liping Chen

“…There exist several approaches to measure similarity of triangular fuzzy numbers. However, some of them are opt to be large. To make the similarity well distributed, a new method SIAM (Shape’s Indifferent Area and Midpoint) to measure triangular fuzzy number is put forward, which takes the shape’s indifferent area and midpoint of two triangular fuzzy numbers into consideration. …”

Operational Characteristics of Research and Test Benches and Installations with Heavy Liquid Metal Heat Carriers by T. A. Bokova, A. G. Meluzov, N. S. Volkov, A. R. Marov, A. V. Lviv

“…This will make it possible to plan more efficient composition of new research stands at heavy liquid metal coolants and avoid unnecessary mistakes when operating them. Heavy liquid metal heat carriers of nuclear power plants such as lead, eutectic lead-bismuth alloy, lead-lithium, gallium alloys differ significantly in their physicochemical properties from traditional and well-studied, widely used water, sodium, as well as liquid salt heat carriers, potassium, gases (helium, etc.).…”

Mathematical modeling and simulation of hepatitis B transmission dynamics with passive immunity and control strategies by James Khobocha Mirgichan, Cyrus Gitonga Ngari, Stephen Karanja, Robert Muriungi

“…Also, exposure to past immunities through passive action on the part of newborns has a significant responsibility to bear concerning the management of HBV transference. Therefore, our research findings indicate that multiple interventions can go a long way towards eliminating the ravages of HBV in the general population and consequently enhancing the general wellbeing of the population. …”
