Scientific statistics and graphics on the Macintosh

The personal computer has become commonplace on the desk of most scientists. As hardware costs have plummeted, software capabilities have expanded enormously, permitting the scientist to examine extremely large datasets in novel ways. Advances in networking now permit rapid transfer of large datasets, which can often be used unchanged from one machine to the next. In spite of these significant advances, many scientists still use their personal computers only for word processing or e-mail, or as "dumb terminals". Many are simply unaware of the richness of software now available to statistically analyze and display scientific data in highly innovative ways. This paper presents several examples drawn from actual climate data analysis that illustrate some novel and practical features of several widely-used software packages for Macintosh computers.

大蹼铃蟾抗菌肽22 对膀胱癌细胞株HLA-ABC以及DR表达影响的对照实验研究

　目的　探讨大蹼铃蟾抗菌肽22 (Maximin22) 对膀胱癌 细胞株HLA2DR 及HLA2ABC 表达的影响, 并与TNF2α、 IFN2α进行比较。方法　采用肿瘤细胞培养方法,流式细胞 仪检测各实验样品对膀胱癌细胞株T24 、BIU287 、SCaBER 的HLA2DR 及HLA2ABC 表达的影响。结果　Maximin22 对 不同的膀胱癌细胞株在小剂量下即有抑制作用,并呈剂量相 关性,各实验样品未见对各膀胱癌细胞株的HLA2DR 表达 有影响,Maximin22 、TNF2α对HLA2ABC 的表达均无影响; IFN2α则对HLA2ABC 的表达有上调作用。结论　Maximin2 2 、TNF2α抗癌机制与提高肿瘤细胞HLA2DR、ABC 的表达无 关, IFN2α可通过提高肿瘤细胞HLA2ABC 的表达提高T 细 胞对膀胱肿瘤的识别杀伤能力。

Isolation and preliminary characterization of a 22-kDa protein with trypsin inhibitory activity from toad Bufo andrewsi skin

A novel trypsin inhibitor termed BATI was purified to homogeneity from the skin extracts of toad Bufo andrewsi by successive ion-exchange, gel-filtration and reverse-phase chromatography. BATI is basic single chain glycoprotein, with apparent molecular weight of 22 kDa in SDS-PAGE. BATI is a thermal stable competitive inhibitor and effectively inhibits trypsin's catalytic activity on peptide substrate with the inhibitor constant (K-i) value of 14 nM and shows no inhibitory effect on chymotrypsin, thrombin and elastase. The N-terminal sequence of BATI is EKDSITD, which shows no similarity with other known trypsin inhibitors. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

High-performance 2 mm gate width GaNHEMTs on 6H-SiC with output power of 22.4 W @ 8 GHz

Optimized AlGaN/AlN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) structures were grown on 2-in semi-insulating (SI) 6H-SiC substrate by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The 2-in. HEMT wafer exhibited a low average sheet resistance of 305.3 Omega/sq with a uniformity of 3.85%. The fabricated large periphery device with a dimension of 0.35 pm x 2 nun demonstrated high performance, with a maximum DC current density of 1360 mA/mm, a transconductance of 460 mS/mm, a breakdown voltage larger than 80 V, a current gain cut-off frequency of 24 GHz and a maximum oscillation frequency of 34 GHz. Under the condition of continuous-wave (CW) at 9 GHz, the device achieved 18.1 W output power with a power density of 9.05 W/mm and power-added-efficiency (PAE) of 36.4%. While the corresponding results of pulse condition at 8 GHz are 22.4 W output power with 11.2 W/mm power density and 45.3% PAE. These are the state-of-the-art power performance ever reported for this physical dimension of GaN HEMTs based on SiC substrate at 8 GHz. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
