We investigate characteristics of J-aggregation as take advantage of LB technic. In order to confirm the applications possible for the molecular electronic device, the morphological properties of merocyanine dye were investigated by AFM. $\pi$-A curves investigated the surface pressure of the LB film from a liquid to a solid state ranged between 90 and 100 mN/m. We observed aggregation and it's characteristics by using visible reflection spectroscopy. We have observed morphology of merocyanine dye on gold surface by STM. focuses on results obtained in mercocyanide dye of J-aggregation. When LB films of merocyanine dye are mixed with arachidic acid, J-aggregate formation is exhibited. J-aggregate formation has been serving as typical systems in revealing the physical and structural aspects of nano-sized molecular aggregates constructed as muiltilayers.

In this paper a complexity reduction method in a linear system is studied. The poles to be retained are selected by the dominancy and the values of residues at respective poles. The reduced order model is obtained by the aggregation method, and the aggregation matrix is determined by the eigenvectors of a controllable canonical form. We consider the markov parameter and the time-moment at the same time, thereby getting rid of the steady-state errors. The input-output matrices are obtained using a chained aggregation matrix, and application of this method is illustrated by example.

This paper presents a privacy-preserving data aggregation scheme deals with the multidimensional data. It is essential that the multidimensional data is rarely mentioned in all researches on smart grid. We use the Paillier Cryptosystem and blinding factor technique to encrypt the multidimensional data as a whole and take advantage of the homomorphic property of the Paillier Cryptosystem to achieve data aggregation. Signature and efficient batch verification have also been applied into our scheme for data integrity and quick verification. And the efficient batch verification only requires 2 pairing operations. Our scheme also supports fault tolerance which means that even some smart meters don't work, our scheme can still work well. In addition, we give two extensions of our scheme. One is that our scheme can be used to compute a fixed user's time-of-use electricity bill. The other is that our scheme is able to effectively and quickly deal with the dynamic user situation. In security analysis, we prove the detailed unforgeability and security of batch verification, and briefly introduce other security features. Performance analysis shows that our scheme has lower computational complexity and communication overhead than existing schemes.

Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) function as molecular chaperones that protect cells against environmental stresses. In the present study, the genes of hsp17.6 and hsp17.7, cytosolic class I sHSPs, were cloned from a tropical plant, Ageratina adenophorum. Their C-terminal domains were highly conserved with those of sHSPs from other plants, indicating the importance of the C-terminal domains for the structure and activity of sHSPs. The recombinant HSP17.6 and HSP17.7 were applied to determine their chaperone function. In vitro, HSP17.6 and HSP17.7 actively participated in the refolding of the model substrate citrate synthase (CS) and effectively prevented the thermal aggregation of CS at $45^{\circ}C$ and the irreversible inactivation of CS at $38^{\circ}C$ at stoichiometric levels. The prior presence of HSP17.7 was assumed to suppress the thermal aggregation of the model substrate CS. Therefore, this report confirms the chaperone activity of HSP17.6 and HSP17.7 and their potential as a protectant for active proteins.

Effects of electric force on the morphology and growth of aggregates were studied experimentally. Nano-sized NaCl particles were supplied to a flame to perform the unipolar charging state. This electric precursor did not modify a temperature profile of the flame. The morphology of aggregates was measured by TEM image processing technique and the light scattering technique. In the unipolar charged state, the fractal dimension of aggregates was smaller than that of' the electrically neutral state. This result was in good agreement with our previous numerical simulations.

In this paper, we present two algorithms for efficiently aggregating link state information needed for quality-of-service (QoS) routing. In these algorithms, each edge node in a group is mapped onto a node of a shufflenet or a node of a de Bruijn graph. By this mapping, the number of links for which state information is maintained becomes aN (a is an integer, N is the number of edge nodes) which is significantly smaller than N2 in the full-mesh approach. Our algorithms also can support asymmetric link state parameters which are common in practice, while many previous algorithms such as the spanning tree approach can be applied only to networks with symmetric link state parameters. Experimental results show that the performance of our shufflenet algorithm is close to that of the full-mesh approach in terms of the accuracy of bandwidth and delay information, with only a much smaller amount of information. On the other hand, although it is not as good as the shufflenet approach, the de Bruijn algorithm also performs far better than the star approach which is one of the most widely accepted schemes. The de Bruijn algorithm needs smaller computational complexity than most previous algorithms for asymmetric networks, including the shufflenet algorithm.

The aggregation behavior of nystatin (NYS) in the presence of pluronic F127, triblock copolymer of poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly (propylene oxide) (PPO), was measured and correlated with hemolytic activity. Antifungal activity was also studied using Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model strain. The critical aggregation concentrations (CAC) of the drug were 50.1, 108.0, 134.2, 154.3, and $217.9\;{\mu}M$ at 0.1%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0% pluronic F127 solution, respectively. The levels of NYS required to start lysis of erythrocytes were about 80, 100, 125, 150, and $200\;{\mu}M$ at 0.1%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0% pluronic F127 solution, respectively. It was $50\;{\mu}M$ in the absence of the polymer. Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal fungicidal concentration (MFC) of NYS-pluronic F127 lyophilizate were same at $3\;{\mu}g/ml$, while MIC and MFC of pure NYS are $3\;{\mu}g/ml$ and $12\;{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. By modulating the aggregation behavior of NYS, pluronic F127 was able to reduce the toxicity of the drug without compromising the MIC and MFC.

Data aggregation is the significant process in which the information is gathered and combines data to decrease the amount of data transmission in the WSN. The sensor devices are susceptible to node attacks and security issues such as data confidentiality and data privacy are extremely important. A novel technique called Ruzicka Index Regressive Homomorphic Ephemeral Key Benaloh Cryptography (RIRHEKBC) technique is introduced for enhancing the security of data aggregation and data privacy in WSN. By applying the Ruzicka Index Regressive Homomorphic Ephemeral Key Benaloh Cryptography, Ephemeral private and public keys are generated for each sensor node in the network. After the key generation, the sender node performs the encryption using the receiver public key and sends it to the data aggregator. After receiving the encrypted data, the receiver node uses the private key for decrypting the ciphertext. The key matching is performed during the data decryption using Ruzicka Indexive regression function. Once the key is matched, then the receiver collects the original data with higher security. The simulation result proves that the proposed RIRHEKBC technique increases the security of data aggregation and minimizes the packet drop, and delay than the state-of-the- art methods.
