Active Transcriptomic and Proteomic Reprogramming in the C. elegans Nucleotide Excision Repair Mutant xpa-1

April 9, 2013
Author(s)
Katarzyna Arczewska, Gisele Tomazella, Jessica Lindvall, Henok Kassahun, Silvia Maglioni, Alessandro Torgovnick, Johan Henriksson, Olli Matilainen, Bryce J. Marquis, Bryant Nelson, Eshrat Babaie, Carina Holmberg, Thomas Burglin, Natascia Ventura, Bernd Thiede, Hilde Nilsen
Transcription-blocking oxidative DNA damage is believed to contribute to aging and to underlie activation of oxidative stress-responses and down-regulation of insulin-like signaling (ILS) in Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER) deficient mice. Here, we present

Dictionary Learning from Ambiguously Labeled Data

April 9, 2013
Author(s)
P J. Phillips, Yi-Chen Chen, Vishal M. Patel, Jaishanker K. Pillai, Rama Chellappa
We propose a novel dictionary-based learning method for ambiguously labeled multiclass classification, where each training sample has multiple labels and only one of them is the correct label. The dictionary learning problem is solved using an iterative

Guidelines for Minimum Information for Publication of Quantitative Digital PCR Experiments

April 9, 2013
Author(s)
Ross J. Haynes, Jim Huggett, Carole Foy, Vladimir Benes, Kerry Emslie, Jeremy Garson, Jan Hellemans, Mikael Kubista, Tania Nolan, Michael Pfaffl, Gregory Shipley, Jo Vandesompele, Carl Wittwer, Stephen Bustin
There is growing interest in the digital polymerase chain reaction (dPCR) as technological progress makes it a practical and increasingly affordable technology. dPCR allows the precise quantification of nucleic acid, facilitating the measurement of small

Thermo-Mechanical Characterization of AuIn Transient Liquid Phase Bonding Die-Attach

April 9, 2013
Author(s)
Brian J. Grummel, Habib A. Mustain, Z. J. Shen, Allen R. Hefner Jr.
In next-generation wide-bandgap power electronics, the semiconductor device die-attach is of critical importance, for this transient liquid phase (TLP) bonding is a promising and effective die-attach technique. In this work, the thermal and mechanical

Critical Dimension small angel X-ray scattering measurements of FinFET and 3D memory structures

April 8, 2013
Author(s)
Regis J. Kline, Daniel F. Sunday, Chengqing C. Wang, Wen-Li Wu, Charlie Settens, Bunday Benjamin, Brad Thiel, Matyi Richard
Critical dimension small angle X-ray scattering (CD-SAXS) has been identified as a potential solution for measurement of nanoscale lithographic features by interrogating structures with sub-nanometer wavelength radiation in transmission geometry. The most

Estimating Uncertainties in Antenna Measurements

April 8, 2013
Author(s)
Michael H. Francis
We describe general methods of estimating uncertainties in antenna measurements. These include estimates based on theory (analysis1), simulation, and altering the measurement system (self-coparison tests). The important component sources of uncertainty in

Intercomparison between optical and x-ray scatterometry measurements of FinFET structures

April 8, 2013
Author(s)
Paul Lemaillet, Thomas Germer, Regis J. Kline, Daniel Sunday, Chengqing C. Wang, Wen-Li Wu
In this paper, we present a comparison of profile measurements of vertical field effect transistor (FinFET) fin arrays by optical critical dimension (OCD) metrology and critical dimension small angle X-ray scattering (CD-SAXS) metrology. Spectroscopic

Flexible Metal Organic Framework Compound, Ni(1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene)[Ni(CN)4]n, for CO2 Sorption Applications

April 7, 2013
Author(s)
Winnie K. Wong-Ng, Jeffrey T. Culp, Yu-Sheng Chen, Laura Espinal, Andrew J. Allen, Daniel W. Siderius, Craig M. Brown, Wendy Queen, Peter Zavalij, Christopher Matranga
New sorbent materials are required for carbon capture because coal-fired electrical power plants, the largest emitters of this greenhouse gas, will continue to produce much of our nation’s electricity for at least several decades. Within the family of

Design of remnant magnetization FeCoV films as compact, heatless neutron spin rotators

April 5, 2013
Author(s)
Michael G. Huber, M. O. Abutaleb, Dimitry A. Pushin, Charles F. Majkrzak, Muhammad Arif, D G. Cory
We introduce a design of a neutron spin rotator for applications with space and temperature constraints. These passive devices employ remnant magnetization Fe- CoV thin films and can be tuned experimentally to achieve arbitrary rotation of an incident

Evaluation of Firepots and Gel Fuels

April 5, 2013
Author(s)
Nathan D. Marsh
The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has identified a fire and burn hazard associated with a class of products often referred to as “firepots” , resulting in 2 deaths and 114 injuries as of August 31, 2012. The essential feature of this product

Improved Synthesis and Crystal Structure of the Flexible Pillared Layer Porous Coordination Polymer: Ni(1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene)[Ni(CN)4]

April 4, 2013
Author(s)
Winnie K. Wong-Ng, Jeffrey T. Culp, Yu-Sheng Chen, Peter Zavalij, Laura Espinal, Daniel W. Siderius, Andrew J. Allen, Steve Scheins, Christopher Matranga
A new method of synthesis was developed for the flexible coordination polymer Ni(L)[Ni(CN)4], L=1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (bpene) to increase its CO2 sorption uptake. The structure of the newly synthesized bpene has been determined by synchrotron X-ray

Salivary Antigen-5/CAP Family Members Are Cu 2+ -dependent Antioxidant Enzymes That Scavenge O 2 -. and Inhibit Collagen-induced Platelet Aggregation and Neutrophil Oxidative Burst

April 4, 2013

Teresa Assumpcao, Dongying Ma, Alexandra Schwarz, Karine Reiter, Jaime Santana, John Andersen, Jose Ribeiro, Glen Nardone, Lee L. Yu, Ivo Francischetti
The function of the antigen-5/CAP family of proteins found in the salivary gland of bloodsucking animals has remained elusive for decades. Antigen-5 members from the hematophagous insects Dipetalogaster maxima (DMAV) and Triatoma infestans (TIAV) were

Event Identification in He-3 Proportional Counters Using Risetime Discrimination

April 2, 2013
Author(s)
Jeffrey S. Nico, T J. Langford, Christopher D. Bass, E J. Beise, D. K. Erwin, Craig Heimbach
We present a straightforward method for particle identification and background rejection in He-3 proportional counters for use in neutron detection. By measuring the risetime and pulse height of the preamplifier signals, one may define a region in the
