Steady-State Plasma Concentrations of Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) are Reached in Children and Adults During Once-Weekly Prophylactic Treatment with Nonacog Beta Pegol (N9-GP)
Abstract Background Nonacog beta pegol (N9-GP, Refixia®, Rebinyn®) is a human recombinant coagulation factor IX (rFIX) conjugated to a 40-kDa polyethylene glycol (PEG) moiety. PEGylation significantly prolongs the circulation half-life compared with conventional FIX replacement treatments, resulting in higher FIX levels. Although there is extensive clinical experience with PEGylated molecules, the potential for abnormal and/or indefinite...

Regio‐ and Stereospecific Cyclopolymerization of α,ω‐Diynes by Cationic Molybdenum Imido Alkylidene N‐Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes
The regio‐ and stereoselective cyclopolymerization of several 4,4‐disubstituted 1,6‐heptadiynes by different cationic molybdenum imido alkylidene N‐heterocyclic carbene complexes is described. Cyclopolymerization proceeds with high α‐selectivity (>99%), resulting in all‐trans, syndiotactic polymers. Syndiotacticity is proposed to result from a chain‐end‐controlled approach of the monomer to the cationic metal alkylidene. Abstract Both solvent‐free and acetonitrile‐containing cationic molybdenum...

Effects of bovine serum albumin (BSA) on the excited-state properties of meso -tetrakis(sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin (TPPS 4 )
Abstract To infer changes in the photophysical properties of porphyrins due to complexation with albumin, a combination of Z-scan and conventional spectroscopic techniques was employed. We measured the characteristics of excited states of meso-tetrakis(sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin bound to bovine serum albumin and observed that the binding reduces the intersystem crossing quantum yield and increases the internal conversion one. A reverse saturable absorption process was observed...

On-wall and interior separation in a two-fluid boundary layer
Abstract A two-fluid boundary layer is considered in the context of a high Reynolds number Poiseuille–Couette channel flow encountering an elongated shallow obstacle. The flow is laminar, steady and two-dimensional, with the boundary layer shown to have the pressure unknown in advance and a specified displacement (a condensed boundary layer). The focus is on the detail of the flow reversal triggered by the obstacle. The interface between the two fluids passes through the boundary...

Development of a Lower Limb Exoskeleton Worn on the Front of a Human
Abstract This paper introduces a new concept of a lower limb exoskeleton, KUEX, and its control framework. KUEX is a fully actuated system and is developed for a wearer’s walking assistance and sit-to-stand/stand-to-sit assistance. Because of full actuation, it is able to balance by itself and assist the wearer’s weight directly. Also, it is worn on the wearer’s front side. As the reason, it is easy to wear the robot and is able to reduce wearing time. The control framework for...

Abstract Estimating the pose of a camera is a vital requirement in real-world applications like virtual reality, structure from motion, vision-assisted robot localization and manipulation. The existing Perspective-n-Point (PnP) based pose estimation algorithms have poor accuracy in presence of noise and outliers. Hence, they are combined with the Random Sample Consensus strategies to eliminate the outliers prior to pose estimation and to produce accurate results at the expense...

Identification of a distinct lineage of aviadenovirus from crane feces
Abstract Viruses are believed to be ubiquitous; however, the diversity of viruses is largely unknown because of the bias of previous research toward pathogenic viruses. Deep sequencing is a promising and unbiased approach to detect viruses from animal-derived materials. Although cranes are known to be infected by several viruses such as influenza A viruses, previous studies targeted limited species of viruses, and thus viruses that infect cranes have not been extensively studied....

Synthesis of three-dimensional Au-graphene quantum dots@Pt core–shell dendritic nanoparticles for enhanced methanol electro-oxidation
Au-graphene quantum dots (GQDs)@Pt core–shell nanodendrites are synthesized through a two-step reduction approach, in which Au forms the core, GQDs form an intermediate layer and dendritic Pt forms the shell. Among the above synthesized catalysts, the GQDs can manipulate the binding of reaction intermediates on the Pt surface as well as assemble π – π * conjugate bonds, thus forming a dendritic Pt shell instead of a compact Pt shell. The obtained core–shell structure was characterized by...
