Al-N co-doped ZnO films were fabricated on n-Si (100) and homo-buffer layers in the mixture of oxygen and nitrogen at $450^{\circ}C$ by magnetron sputtering. Target was ZnO ceramic mixed with $2wt%Al_2O_3$. XRD spectra show that as-grown and $600^{\circ}C$ annealed films are prolonged along crystal c-axis. However they are not prolonged in (001) plane vertical to c-axix. The films annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ are not prolonged in any directions. Codoping makes ZnO films unidirectional variation. XPS show that Al content hardly varies and N escapes with increasing annealing temperature from $600^{\circ}C\;to\;800^{\circ}C$. The electric properties of as-grown films were tested by Hall Effect with Van der Pauw configuration show some of them to be p-type conduction.

Preconceptual sex selection is still a highly debatable process whereby X- and Y-chromosome-bearing spermatozoa are isolated prior to fertilization of the oocyte. Although various separation techniques are available, none can guarantee 100% accuracy. The aim of this study was to separate X- and Y-chromosome-bearing spermatozoa using methods based on the viability difference between the X- and Y-chromosome-bearing spermatozoa. A total of 18 experimental semen samples were used, written consent was obtained from all donors and results were analysed in a blinded fashion. Spermatozoa were exposed to different pH values (5.5, 6.5, 7.5, 8.5, and 9.5), increased temperatures ($37^{\circ}C$, $41^{\circ}C$, and $45^{\circ}C$) and ROS level ($50{\mu}M$, $750{\mu}M$, and $1,000{\mu}M$). The live and dead cell separation was done through a modified swim-up technique. Changes in the sex-chromosome ratio of samples were established by double-label fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) before and after processing. The results indicated successful enrichment of X-chromosome-bearing spermatozoa upon incubation in acidic media, increased temperatures, and elevated $H_2O_2$. This study demonstrated the potential role for exploring the physiological differences between X-and Y-chromosome-bearing spermatozoa in the development of preconceptual gender selection.

Sulfadiazine, $C_{10}H_{10}N_4O_2S$, forms monoclinic crystals of space group $P21}c$ from a mixture of acetone and ethanol with $a=13.71{\pm}0.04,\;b=5.84{\pm}0.03,\;c=15.11{\pm}0.05{\AA},\;{\beta}=115.0{\pm}0.3^{\circ}$, and four molecules per cell. Three dimensional photographic data were collected with $CuK\alpha$ radiation. The structure was determined using Patterson and Fourier synthesis methods and refined by block diagonal least-squares methods with isotropic thermal parameter for all non-hydrogen atoms. The final R value was 0.15 for the 1517 observed independent reflections. The dihedral angle between the planes through the benzene ring and the pyrimidine ring is $76^{\circ}$. The conformational angle formed by the projection of the S-C(5) bond with that of N(1)-C(1) where the projection is taken along the S-N(1) bond is $77^{\circ}$. The imino nitrogen atom, N(1), and pyrimidine nitrogen atom, N(3), form intermolecular $N-H{\cdots}N$ hydrogen bond between the molecules related by center of symmetry. Amino nitrogen atom, N(4), forms two intermolecular $N-H{\cdots}O$ hydrogen bonds, with O(1) and O(2) atoms of different molecules separated by b. A two dimensional network of hydrogen bonds form infinite molecular sheets parallel to the (100) plane. Adjacent sheets are bound together by van der Waals forces.

In this paper, we propose an efficient method to extract surface atoms from a protein molecule. Surface atoms are defined as a set of atoms who can contact given probe solvent $P$, where $P$ does not collide with the molecule. The atoms contained in the molecule are represented as a set of spheres with van der Waals radii. The probe solvent also is represented as a sphere. We propose a method to extract the surface atoms by computing the offset surface of the molecule with respect to the radius of $P$. For efficient computation of the offset surface of a molecule, a voxel map is constructed for the offset surfaces of the spheres. Based on GPU (graphic processor unit) acceleration, a data parallel algorithm is used to extract the surface atoms in 42.87 milliseconds for the molecule containing up to 6,412 atoms.

Various physicochemical parameters for the active ingredients of 245 herbicides were calculated to develope a diagnosis and estimation system for utility as herbicide. The range of physico-chemical parameters for each inhibitors of photo system II (H1), acetolactate synthase (ALS) (H2) and herbicides were confirmed. The distribution ranges of 85% dependence for each physicochemical parameters were Obs.logP :$-0.90\sim4.50$, dipol moment: $1.80\sim12.22$ (debye), molecular refractivity: $53.0\sim104.0(cm^3/mol)$, polarizability: $19.0\sim37.0(\AA^3)$, HOMO energy: $-9.98\sim-7.34$ (eV), LUMO energy:$-2.76\sim0.40$ (eV), Van der Waals molecular volumes: $558.0\sim995.0(cm^3)$, molecular weight: $202.0\sim430.0$ (amu) and surface areas (Grids): $194.0\sim356.0(\AA^2)$, hydration energy: $-10.16\sim114.7$ Kcal/mol, respectively. It is suggested that MR and polarizability constants will be able to distinguish between herbicides and medicinal drugs. Results revealed that various compounds based on the range of physicochemical parameters of herbicides could be diagnosed and estimated.

Aflatoxins are natural contaminants of poultry feeds and feed ingredients and cause liver damage, immunosuppression, reduction in performance and mortality in broilers. A number of studies have been carried out to study the effects of aflatoxin on feed conversion ratio in broilers. The results on feed conversion ratio of 10 research articles in broilers fed with aflatoxin from first day of age to six weeks of age were compiled and were subjected to meta-analysis. Chi-square test and $Tau^2$ (heterogeneity co-efficient) were applied to test for significance of heterogeneity of studies. To integrate results, fixed effect model by Inverse Variance method (IV method) was used when heterogeneity was insignificant and otherwise random effect model by DerSimonian and Laird Method (DL method) was used. The results of meta-analysis showed that the adverse effect of aflatoxin on feed conversion ratio at the end of first week was negligible, second week was medium and third to six weeks was very large.

Current increasingly information systems log historic information in a systematic way. Not only workflow management systems, but also ERP, CRM, SCM, and B2B systems often provide a so-called 'event log'. Unfortunately, the information in these event logs is rarely used to analyze the underlying processes. Process mining aims at improving this problem by providing techniques and tools for discovering process, control, data, organizational, and social structures from event logs. This paper focuses on the mining social networks. This is possible because event logs typically record information about the users executing the activities recorded in the log. To do this we combine concepts from workflow management and social network analysis. This paper introduces the approach and presents a tool to mine social networks from event logs.

Line-scan SLS of thin Si films permits the attainment of low-defect-density Si films with a directionally solidified microstructure. This paper deals with: (1) identifying and examining the structural defects that are found in the resultant material, (2) how the spatial variations in the type and density of the observed defects may potentially affect the overall uniformity of the resulting devices, and (3) some technical options that may be applied in order to potentially alleviate the situation.

Uniformity and performance characteristics of LTPS TFTs are important parameters for making advanced active-matrix displays. In this paper, we describe an SLS-based crystallization approach for producing orientation-controlled Si films with reduced concentrations of planar defects that stand to potentially deliver unprecedented levels of device uniformity and performance. Specifically, a 2-step process referred to as hybrid SLS has been developed that produces a variety of high-quality {100} surface-oriented Si films.
