In this paper, we present an algorithm that utilizes a quadtree data structure to construct a quadrilateral mesh for a simple
polygonal region in which no newly created angle is smaller than
18.43° (=arctan(\frac13)){{18.43}}^{\circ} ({=}\hbox{arctan}(\frac{1}{3})) or greater than
171.86° (=135° + 2arctan(\frac13)){{171.86}}^{\circ} ({=}{{135}}^{\circ} + 2\hbox{arctan}(\frac{1}{3})). This is the first known result, to the best of our knowledge, on a direct quadrilateral mesh generation algorithm with a
provable guarantee on the angles. 相似文献

The combined application of electron microscopy (EM) is frequently used for the microstructural investigation of biological specimens and plays two important roles in the quantification and in gaining an improved understanding of biological phenomena by making use of the highest resolution capability provided by EM. The possibility of imaging wet specimens in their "native" states in the environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) at high resolution and large depth of focus in real time is discussed in this paper. It is demonstrated here that new features can be discovered by the elimination of even the least hazardous approaches in some preparation techniques, that destroy the samples. Since the analysis conditions may influence the morphology and the extreme surface sensitivity of living biological systems, the results obtained from the same cultured cell with two different ESEM modes (Lvac mode and wet mode) were compared. This offers new opportunities compared with ESEM-wet/Lvac-mode imaging, since wet-mode imaging involves a real contrast and gives an indication of the changes in cell morphology and structure required for cell viability. In this study, wet-mode imaging was optimized using the unique ability of cell quantities for microcharacterization in situ giving very fine features of topological effects. Accordingly, the progress is reported by comparing the results of these two modes, which demonstrate interesting application details. In general, the functional comparisons have revealed that the fresh unprocessed Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells (ESEM-wet mode) were essentially unaltered with improved and minimal specimen preparation timescales, and the optimal cell viability degree was visualized and also measured quantitatively while the cell size remained unchanged with continuous images. 相似文献

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) constitute a heterogeneous group of lysosomal storage disorders characterized by the lysosomal accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Although lysosomal dysfunction is mainly affected, several cellular organelles such as mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and their related process are also impaired, leading to the activation of pathophysiological cascades. While supplying missing enzymes is the mainstream for the treatment of MPS, including enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), or gene therapy (GT), the use of modulators available to restore affected organelles for recovering cell homeostasis may be a simultaneous approach. This review summarizes the current knowledge about the cellular consequences of the lysosomal GAGs accumulation and discusses the use of potential modulators that can reestablish normal cell function beyond ERT-, HSCT-, or GT-based alternatives. 相似文献

In gliomas, expression of certain marker genes is strongly associated with survival and tumor type and often exceeds histological assessments. Using a human interactome model, we algorithmically reconstructed 7494 new-type molecular pathways that are centered each on an individual protein. Each single-gene expression and gene-centric pathway activation was tested as a survival and tumor grade biomarker in gliomas and their diagnostic subgroups (IDH mutant or wild type, IDH mutant with 1p/19q co-deletion, MGMT promoter methylated or unmethylated), including the three major molecular subtypes of glioblastoma (proneural, mesenchymal, classical). We used three datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas and the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas, which in total include 527 glioblastoma and 1097 low grade glioma profiles. We identified 2724 such gene and 2418 pathway survival biomarkers out of total 17,717 genes and 7494 pathways analyzed. We then assessed tumor grade and molecular subtype biomarkers and with the threshold of AUC > 0.7 identified 1322/982 gene biomarkers and 472/537 pathway biomarkers. This suggests roughly two times greater efficacy of the reconstructed pathway approach compared to gene biomarkers. Thus, we conclude that activation levels of algorithmically reconstructed gene-centric pathways are a potent class of new-generation diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for gliomas. 相似文献

The mechanism of moisture loss, oil uptake, and pore formation during frying is required to be clarified. The main objective of this study was to evaluate moisture content, oil uptake, and pore development of the crust and core regions of potatoes during frying. Potatoes were fried for 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20 min and separated into two parts as crust and core for the analysis of moisture and oil contents, porosity, and pore size distribution. Moisture contents of crust and core parts of fried potatoes were significantly different (p?≤?0.05). It was about 53.7 % for the crust and 82 % for the core region. On the other hand, oil content of the crust was found to be higher than that of the core region. Porosity and pore size distribution of crust and core regions were significantly different. Crust region of potatoes was less porous as compared to core region through the whole frying time. Larger pores were observed at the core region, especially at longer frying times. The size of the pores increased in both core and crust regions with increasing frying time. 相似文献

A separation-preconcentration procedure based on the coprecipitation of cobalt(II) and manganese(II) ions with copper(II)-8-hydroxquinoline system has been developed. The analytical parameters including pH, amount of copper(II) as carrier element, amount of 8-hydroxquinoline, sample volume, etc., was investigated for the quantitative recoveries of Co(II) and Mn(II). No interferic effects were observed from the concomitant ions which are present in real samples. The detection limits for analyte ions by three sigma criteria were 0.86microgL(-1) for cobalt and 0.98microgL(-1) for manganese. The validation of the presented preconcentration procedure was performed by the analysis of NIST SRM 2711 Montana soil and GBW 07605 Tea certified reference materials. The procedure presented was applied to the analyte contents of real samples including natural waters and some food samples with successfully analytical results. 相似文献

Distribution and occurrence of Archaea and methanogenic activity in a laboratory scale, completely mixed anaerobic reactor treating pharmaceutical wastewaters were investigated and associated with reactor performance. The reactor was initially seeded with anaerobic digester sludge from an alcohol distillery wastewater treatment plant and was subjected to a three step feeding strategy. The feeding procedure involved gradual transition from a glucose containing feed to a solvent stripped pharmaceutical wastewater and then raw pharmaceutical wastewater. During the start-up period, over 90% COD removal efficiency at an organic loading rate (OLR) of 6 kg COD m(-3)d(-1) was achieved with glucose feeding, and acetoclastic methanogenic activity was 336 ml CH4 gTVS(-1)d(-1). At the end of the primary loading, when the feed contained solvent stripped pharmaceutical wastewater at full composition, 71% soluble COD removal efficiency was obtained and acetoclastic methanogenic activity decreased to half of the rate under glucose feed (166 ml CH4 gTVS(-1)d(-1)). At the end of secondary loading with 60% (w/v) raw pharmaceutical wastewater, COD removal dropped to zero and acetoclastic methanogenic activity fell to less than 10 ml CH4 gTVS(-1)d(-1). Throughout the course of the experiment, microbial community structure was monitored by DGGE analysis of 16S rRNA gene fragments. Five different archaeal taxa were identified and the predominant archaeal sequences belonged to methanogenic Archaea. Two of these showed greatest sequence identity with Methanobacterium formicicum and Methanosaeta concilii. The types of Archaea present changed little in response to changing feed composition but the relative contribution of different organisms identified in the archaeal DGGE profiles did change. 相似文献

In this study, it is aimed to investigate and evaluate the use of molasses which is a by-product of sugar production as a novel bulking agent in ice cream as a sugar replacer. Sugar beet molasses (75%) and 12 DE maltodextrin (25%) were converted into powder form by spray drying. Spray-dried sugar beet molasses (SDSM) was then used as a substitute of sugar in different ratios (0:100, 25:75, 50:50, 75:25 and 100:0) in the ice cream products. The increased amount of SDSM decreased the overrun, L*, whiteness index (WI) and melting behaviours and increased a*, b*, total phenolic content, consistency and viscosity. Meanwhile, thermal properties have not been affected by the use of SDSM (P < 0.05). The sensory findings have been particularly interesting especially when replacing above 50% sugar with SDSM, aroma, flavour and general acceptability decrease. According to the results of this study, substituting 25% of total sugar with SDSM as a bulking agent can decrease cost of the product and improve total phenolic content and some quality parameters without compromising sensorial properties. 相似文献
