DETECTION OF TOXICANTS BASED ON LUMINESCENT REAGENTS by A. V. Sosnov, M. I. Vlasov, S. V. Sadovnikov, K. A. Rufanov, F. M. Semchenko, A. A. Sosnova, A. S. Radilov, E. I. Savelieva

“…Methods of organophosphorus toxicants and products of their destruction (OP) detection based on lanthanide luminescent complexes (primarily Eu3+) have the similar sensitivity as the most advanced instrumental chromatographic and biochemical assays with detection level in the range of several ppts that allows to determine supertoxicants at the safety requirements concentration levels and at appropriate analysis duration from a few seconds to 10 minutes. High selectivity of toxicants identification is achieved by means of imprinted materials, modified cyclodextrins and luminescent sensor arrays. …”

A genome-wide association scan on the levels of markers of inflammation in Sardinians reveals associations that underpin its complex regulation. by Silvia Naitza, Eleonora Porcu, Maristella Steri, Dennis D Taub, Antonella Mulas, Xiang Xiao, James Strait, Mariano Dei, Sandra Lai, Fabio Busonero, Andrea Maschio, Gianluca Usala, Magdalena Zoledziewska, Carlo Sidore, Ilenia Zara, Maristella Pitzalis, Alessia Loi, Francesca Virdis, Roberta Piras, Francesca Deidda, Michael B Whalen, Laura Crisponi, Antonio Concas, Carlo Podda, Sergio Uzzau, Paul Scheet, Dan L Longo, Edward Lakatta, Gonçalo R Abecasis, Antonio Cao, David Schlessinger, Manuela Uda, Serena Sanna, Francesco Cucca

“…Next, to increase power to detect and resolve associations, we further genotyped the whole cohort (6,145 individuals) for 293,875 variants included on the ImmunoChip and MetaboChip custom arrays. Overall, our combined approach led to the identification of 9 genome-wide significant novel independent signals-5 of which were identified only with the custom arrays-and provided confirmatory evidence for an additional 7. …”

Application of Near-Infrared Spectroscopy to Quantitatively Determine Relative Content of Puccnia striiformis f. sp. tritici DNA in Wheat Leaves in Incubation Period by Yaqiong Zhao, Yilin Gu, Feng Qin, Xiaolong Li, Zhanhong Ma, Longlian Zhao, Junhui Li, Pei Cheng, Yang Pan, Haiguang Wang

“…A total of 300 near-infrared spectra were acquired from the Pst-infected leaf samples in an incubation period, and relative contents of Pst DNA in the samples were obtained using duplex TaqMan real-time PCR arrays. Determination models of the relative contents of Pst DNA in the samples were built using quantitative partial least squares (QPLS), support vector regression (SVR), and a method integrated with QPLS and SVR. …”

A Reconfigurable System Approach to the Direct Kinematics of a 5 D.o.f Robotic Manipulator by Diego F. Sánchez, Daniel M. Muñoz, Carlos H. Llanos, José M. Motta

“…In this paper a hardware architecture for computing direct kinematics of robot manipulators with 5 degrees of freedom (5 D.o.f) using floating-point arithmetic is presented for 32, 43, and 64 bit-width representations and it is implemented in Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). The proposed architecture has been developed using several floating-point libraries for arithmetic and transcendental functions operators, allowing the designer to select (pre-synthesis) a suitable bit-width representation according to the accuracy and dynamic range, as well as the area, elapsed time and power consumption requirements of the application. …”
