Platinum derivatives used as chemotherapeutic drugs such as cisplatin and oxaliplatin have a potent antitumor activity.However, severe side effects such as nephro-, oto-, and neurotoxicity are associated with their use.Effects and side effects of platinum-based drugs are in part caused by their transporter-mediated uptake in target and non target c
Experimental of buckling restrained brace hysteretic performance with carbon fiber wrapped in concrete
Buckling restrained brace is an important structure for improving the seismic resistance of structures.Conducting research on new types of buckling restrained brace can improve the seismic performance and reliability of buckling resistant support.Four different types of buckling restrained braces specimens were designed and manufactured: cross-shap
Mycorrhizal Associations and Trophic Modes in Coexisting Orchids: An Ecological Continuum between Auto- and Mixotrophy
Two distinct nutritional syndromes have been described in temperate green orchids.Most orchids form mycorrhizas with rhizoctonia fungi and are considered autotrophic.Some orchids, however, associate with fungi that simultaneously form ectomycorrhizas with surrounding trees and derive their carbon from these fungi.This evolutionarily derived conditi
From Cryptography to Logic Locking: A Survey on the Architecture Evolution of Secure Scan Chains
The availability of access to Integrated Circuits’ scan chain is an inevitable requirement of modern ICs for testability/debugging purposes.However, leaving access to the scan chain OPEN resulted in numerous security threats on ICs.It raises challenging concerns particularly here when the secret asset, like secret information, is placed with
