  • Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) fingerprint analysis, Principle Components Analysis (PCA), and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA) were introduced for quality assessment of Curcuma longa L. (C. longa). The GC-MS fingerprint method was developed and validated by analyzing 33 batches of samples of C. longa from different geographic locations. 18 chromatographic peaks were selected as characteristic peaks and their relative peak areas (RPA) were calculated for quantitative expression. Two principal components (PCs) were extracted by PCA. C. longa collected from Guizhou and Fujian were separated from other samples by PC1, capturing 71.83% of variance. While, PC2 contributed for their further separation, capturing 11.13% of variance. HCA confirmed the result of PCA analysis. Therefore, GC-MS fingerprint study with chemometric techniques provides a very flexible and reliable method for quality assessment of C. longa.

  • We investigated the effects of a gate dielectric and its solvent on the characteristics of top-gated organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). Despite the rough top surface of the inkjet-printed active features, the charge transport in an OFET is still favorable, with no significant degradation in performance. Moreover, the characteristics of the OFETs showed a strong dependency on the gate dielectrics used and its orthogonal solvents. Poly(3-hexylthiophene) OFETs with a poly(methyl methacrylate) dielectric showed typical p-type OFET characteristics. The selection of gate dielectric and solvent is very important to achieve high-performance organic electronic circuits.

  • Background: The increasing need to minimize animal testing has sparked interest in alternative methods with more humane, cost-effective, and time-saving attributes. In particular, in silico-based computational toxicology is gaining prominence. Adverse outcome pathway (AOP) is a biological map depicting toxicological mechanisms, composed of molecular initiating events (MIEs), key events (KEs), and adverse outcomes (AOs). To understand toxicological mechanisms, predictive models are essential for AOP components in computational toxicology, including molecular structures. Objectives: This study reviewed the literature and investigated previous research cases related to AOP and in silico methodologies. We describe the results obtained from the analysis, including predictive techniques and approaches that can be used for future in silico-based alternative methods to animal testing using AOP. Methods: We analyzed in silico methods and databases used in the literature to identify trends in research on in silico prediction models. Results: We reviewed 26 studies related to AOP and in silico methodologies. The ToxCast/Tox21 database was commonly used for toxicity studies, and MIE was the most frequently used predictive factor among the AOP components. Machine learning was most widely used among prediction techniques, and various in silico methods, such as deep learning, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics, were also utilized. Conclusions: We analyzed the current research trends regarding in silico-based alternative methods for animal testing using AOPs. Developing predictive techniques that reflect toxicological mechanisms will be essential to replace animal testing with in silico methods. In the future, since the applicability of various predictive techniques is increasing, it will be necessary to continue monitoring the trend of predictive techniques and in silico-based approaches.

  • The methanol extract from seed of Myristica fragrans (Myristicaceae) demonstrated a potent inhibition on the pro-liferation of cultured human tumor cells such as A549 (non small cell lung), SK-OV-3 (ovary), SK-MEL-2 (melanoma), XF498 (central nerve system) and HCT-15 (colon) in vitro. By the continuous effort to purify the active components responsible far the anti-proliferative effect on tumor cell lines, we have isolated eleven kinds of lignan components, i. e., safrole (1), machilin A (2), licarin B (3), macelignan (4), mere-dihydroguaiaretic acid (5), mγnstargenol A (6), methoxyeugenol (7), machilin F (8), licarin A (9), nectandrin B (10), and 2-(4-allyl-2,6-dimethoxyphenoxy)-1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)propan-1-ol (11) together with a novel furan fatty acid, (E)-3-(3-methyl-5-pentylfuran-2-yl) acrylic acid (12) from seed extract of M. fragrans. Chemical structures of the isolated components (1-12) were established bγ the aid of NMR spectroscopic analyses, i. e., COSY HMQC and HMBC. Each of the Isolates demonstrated a potent inhibition on the proliferation of cultured human tumor cells such as A549 (non small cell lung), SK-OY-3 (ovary), SK-MEL-2 (melanoma) and HCT-15 (colon) in vitro.

  • The fabrication of a thin-film transistor backplane and a liquid-crystal display using printing processes can eliminate the need for photolithography and offers the potential to reduce the manufacturing costs. In this study, we prepare contact via structures through a poly(methyl methacrylate) polymer insulator layer using inkjet printing. When droplets of silver ink composed of a polymer solvent are placed onto the polymer insulator and annealed at high temperatures, the silver ink penetrates the interior of the polymer and generates conducting paths between the top and bottom metal lines through the partial dissolution and swelling of the polymer. The electrical property of various contact via-hole interconnections is investigated using a semiconductor characterization system.
