Design and synthesis of novel 3-hydroxy-cyclobut-3-ene-1,2-dione derivatives as thyroid hormone receptor β (TR-β) selective ligands

Design and synthesis of a novel 3-hydroxy-cyclobut-3-ene-1,2-dione derivatives are reported and their in vitro thyroid hormone receptor selectivity has been evaluated in the thyroid luciferase receptor assay. The 3-[3,5-dichloro-4-(4-hydroxy-3-isopropylphenoxy)-phenylamino]-4-hydroxy-cyclobut-3-ene-1,2-dione 21 has shown selectivity towards thyroid hormone receptor β.

Developement of DSP based educational kit for power electronics and drives

The educational kit was developed for power electronics and drives. The need and purpose of this kit is to train engineers with current technology of digital control in power electronics. The DSP is the natural choice as it is able to perform high speed calculations required in power electronics. The educational kit consists of a DSP platform using TI DSP TMS320C50 starter kit, an inverter and an induction machine-dc machine set. A set of experiments have been prepared so that DSP programming can be learned easily in a smooth fashion. Here the application presented is open loop V/F control of three phase induction using sine pulse width modulation technique.

A Compliant Mechanism Kit with Flexible Beams and Connectors

We present the concept, prototypes, and an optimal design method for a compliant mechanism kit as a parallel to the kits available for rigid-body mechanisms. The kit consists of flexible beams and connectors that can be easily hand-assembled using snap fits. It enables users, using their creativity and mechanics intuition, to quickly realize a compliant mechanism. The mechanisms assembled in this manner accurately capture the essential behavior of the topology, shape, size and material aspects and thereby can lead the way for a real compliant mechanism for practical use. Also described in this paper are the design of the connector to which flexible beams can be added in eight different directions; and prototyping of the spring steel connectors as well as beams using wire-cut electro discharge machining. It is noted in this paper that the concept of the kit also resolves a discrepancy in the finite element (FE) modeling of beam-based compliant mechanisms. The discrepancy arises when two or more beams are joining at one point and thus leading to increased stiffness. After resolving this discrepancy, this work extends the topology optimization to automatically generate designs that can be assembled with the kit. Thus, the kit and the accompanying analysis and optimal synthesis procedures comprise a self-contained educational as well as a research and pragmatic toolset for compliant mechanisms. The paper also illustrates how human creativity finds new ways of using the kit beyond the original intended use and how it is useful even for a novice to design compliant mechanisms.

A compliant mechanism kit with flexible beams and connectors along with analysis and optimal synthesis procedures

We present a compliant mechanism kit as a parallel to the kits available for rigid-body mechanisms. The kit consists of flexible beams and connectors that can be easily hand-assembled using snap fits. The mechanisms assembled using the kit accurately capture the aspects of the topology, shape, and size of joint-free compliant mechanisms. Thus, the kit enables designers to conceive and design new, practicable, single-piece compliant mechanisms that do not require assembly. The concept of the kit also resolves a discrepancy in the finite element (FE) modeling of beam-based compliant mechanisms. The discrepancy arises when two or more beams are joined at one point and thus leading to increased stiffness. After resolving this discrepancy, this work extends the topology optimization to automatically generate designs that can be assembled with the kit for quick and easy validation instead of time-consuming prototyping. Thus, the kit and the accompanying analysis and optimal synthesis procedures comprise a self-contained educational as well as a research and practice toolset for compliant mechanisms. The paper also illustrates how human creativity finds new ways of using the kit beyond the original intended use and how it enables even a novice to design compliant mechanisms.

Diferença em disputa: os embates acerca do kit anti-homofobia (2004-2012).

Esta dissertação é parte integrante da linha de pesquisa Currículo: sujeitos, conhecimentos e cultura e do grupo de pesquisa Currículo, cultura e diferença coordenado pela Prof Dr Elizabeth Fernandes de Macedo. Neste trabalho analisei os embates através das articulações discursivas em torno do kit anti-homofobia do Projeto Escola Sem Homofobia do Ministério da Educação. O objetivo deste trabalho era responder o que pode ter contribuído para que o discurso contrário à implementação deste projeto tenha saído hegemônico nesta disputa, e se seria este material um desestabilizador na discussão binária que envolve esta temática ou se reforçaria este binarismo. Para isso, utilizei como aporte teórico estudos pós-coloniais, estudos pós-estruturais, teoria do discurso, discussões do campo do currículo e teoria queer. Metodologicamente, acompanhei os argumentos dxs atorxs políticos que posicionaram-se favoráveis à utilização deste kit nas escolas e os argumentos dos que posicionaram-se contrariamente em alguns veículos de imprensa de relevância nacional e nos pronunciamentos nos plenários da Câmara e no Senado no período de novembro de 2010 a outubro de 2012. A análise evidenciou que os embates discursivos provocados por tais ações governamentais podem ser um convite às resignificações da tradição cultural brasileira tão marcada pelo sexismo e a homofobia.

Applications of homemade kit in mutation detection of genes

Several methods of mutation detection, such as single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP), tandem SSCP/heteroduplex analysis and SNaPshot analysis were developed using homemade kit on ABI 310 genetic analyzer, and were successfully applied to mutation detection of 31 colorectal tumor samples. The sieving capability of homemade kit and commercial kit were compared, results demonstrate that homemade kit has higher resolution and shorter analysis time. In clinical tumor samples, 26% K-ras (exon 1) and 24% p53 (exons 7-8) were found to have mutations, and all mutations were single point variations. A majority of mutations occurred in one gene, only 1 tumor contained alterations in the two genes, which indicates that development of colorectal cancer lies on alternate pathways, and may correlate with different gene mutations.

Simultaneous genotyping of multiplex single nucleotide polymorphisms of the K-ras gene with a home-made kit

Accurate and fast genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) is important in the human genome project. Here an automated fluorescent method that can rapidly and accurately genotype multiplex known SNPs was developed by using a homemade kit, which has lower cost but higher resolution than commercial kit. With this method, oncogene K-ras was investigated, four known SNPs of K-ras gene exon 1 in 31 coloerctal cancer patients were detected. Results indicate that mutations were present in 8(26%) of 31 patients, and most mutations were localized in codon 12. The presence of these mutations is thought to be a critical step and plays an important role in human colorectal carcinogenesisas. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
