Extraction of the Composition of Olive Pits with Various Solvents

We have studied samples obtained from olive pits of different dimensions, determined the method for obtaining powder from olive pits, and also studied the best suitable time for collection. Crushed to a powder of powder and to particles of hard bones, they were placed in test tubes and filled with solvents. The solutions obtained by extraction with several solvents from the crushed powder of olive pits, collected in October 2021 in the Surakhani district of Baku, showed the best result. The resulting concentrates were studied and the optical density of the solutions was determined by UV spectroscopy; a method based on the Lambert–Bouguer–Beeroscopy law was applied

Magnetic properties of chain antiferromagnets RbFeSe<inf>2</inf>, TlFeSe<inf>2</inf>, and TlFeS<inf>2</inf>

© 2017, Allerton Press, Inc. Single crystals of ternary ion chalcogenides RbFeSe 2 , TlFeSe 2 , and TlFeS 2 are studied by X-ray diffraction, SQUID magnetometry, and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Common structural units of these chalcogenides are tetrahedra of FeCh 4 (chalcogen Ch = Se, S), arranged in chains by sharing an edge. It is found that RbFeSe 2 , TlFeSe 2 , and TlFeS 2 undergo transition to a collinear antiferromagnetic state below temperatures T N = 248, 290, and 196 K, respectively. Their magnetic moments are oriented perpendicular to the axes of the chains of FeCh 4 tetrahedra

Spatially, Temporally and Polarization-Resolved Photoluminescence Exploration of Excitons in Crystalline Phthalocyanine Thin Films

The lack of long range order in organic semiconductor thin films prevents the unveiling of the complete nature of excitons in optical experiments, because the diffraction limited beam diameters in the bandgap region far exceed typical crystalline grain sizes. Here we present spatially-, temporally- and polarization-resolved dual photoluminescence/linear dichroism microscopy experiments that investigate exciton states within a single crystalline grain in solution-processed phthalocyanine thin films. These experiments reveal the existence of a delocalized singlet exciton, polarized along the high mobility axis in this quasi-1D electronic system. The strong delocalized {\pi} orbitals overlap controlled by the molecular stacking along the high mobility axis is responsible for breaking the radiative recombination selection rules. Using our linear dichroism scanning microscopy setup we further established a rotation of molecules (i.e. a structural phase transition) that occurs above 100 K prevents the observation of this exciton at room temperature.Comment: submitted to Journal of Chem Phys letter

The cytotoxic T cell proteome and its shaping by the kinase mTOR

High-resolution mass spectrometry maps the cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) proteome and the impact of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) on CTLs. The CTL proteome was dominated by metabolic regulators and granzymes and mTORC1 selectively repressed and promoted expression of subset of CTL proteins (~10%). These included key CTL effector molecules, signaling proteins and a subset of metabolic enzymes. Proteomic data highlighted the potential for mTORC1 negative control of phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)) production in CTL. mTORC1 was shown to repress PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) production and to determine the mTORC2 requirement for activation of the kinase Akt. Unbiased proteomic analysis thus provides a comprehensive understanding of CTL identity and mTORC1 control of CTL function

Reperfusion therapy for ST elevation acute myocardial infarction 2010/2011: current status in 37 ESC countries

Aims Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) is the preferred reperfusion therapy in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We conducted this study to evaluate the contemporary status on the use and type of reperfusion therapy in patients admitted with STEMI in the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) member countries. Methods and results A cross-sectional descriptive study based on aggregated country-level data on the use of reperfusion therapy in patients admitted with STEMI during 2010 or 2011. Thirty-seven ESC countries were able to provide data from existing national or regional registries. In countries where no such registries exist, data were based on best expert estimates. Data were collected on the use of STEMI reperfusion treatment and mortality, the numbers of cardiologists, and the availability of PPCI facilities in each country. Our survey provides a brief data summary of the degree of variation in reperfusion therapy across Europe. The number of PPCI procedures varied between countries, ranging from 23 to 884 per million inhabitants. Primary percutaneous coronary intervention and thrombolysis were the dominant reperfusion strategy in 33 and 4 countries, respectively. The mean population served by a single PPCI centre with a 24-h service 7 days a week ranged from 31 300 inhabitants per centre to 6 533 000 inhabitants per centre. Twenty-seven of the total 37 countries participated in a former survey from 2007, and major increases in PPCI utilization were observed in 13 of these countries. Conclusion Large variations in reperfusion treatment are still present across Europe. Countries in Eastern and Southern Europe reported that a substantial number of STEMI patients are not receiving any reperfusion therapy. Implementation of the best reperfusion therapy as recommended in the guidelines should be encourage

Non-Linear Stability of Conical Shell Structures Including a Functionally Graded Core

In this study, the non-linear stability of three-layered conical shells with functionally graded core have not been investigated previously. The purpose of this paper is to study this problem. The large deflection theory with von Karman-Donnell-type of kinematic non-linearity is used to deduce the basic equations. The basic equations are solved analytically by using superposition and Galerkin methods. The influences of several parameters on the dimensionless non-linear critical axial loads are discussed
