Processing of the synaptic cell adhesion molecule neurexin-3beta by Alzheimer disease alpha- and gamma-secretases

Patrick Fraering, Claude André Schweizer, Saoussen Ben Halima, Nathalie Bot

Neurexins (NRXNs) are synaptic cell adhesion molecules having essential roles in the assembly and maturation of synapses into fully functional units. Immunocytochemical and electrophysiological studies have shown that specific binding across the synaptic c ...

Effects of alcohol on the time course of visual information processing in woman

Michael Herzog

Alcohol is one of the most commonly consumed drugs in the world. While the effects of alcohol on cognitive and psychomotor skills have been well studied, little research has examined alcohol's effects on visual processing. In the present study, we evaluate ...

Optimized conditions for gas light interaction in photonic crystal fibres

Luc Thévenaz, Isabelle Dicaire

This paper presents helpful expressions predicting the filling time of gaseous species inside photonic crystal fibres. Based on the theory of diffusion, our gas-filling model can be applied to any given fibre geometry or length by calculating diffusion coe ...

Analytical modeling of the gas-filling dynamics in photonic crystal fibers

Luc Thévenaz, Isabelle Dicaire

We present useful expressions predicting the filling time of gaseous species inside photonic crystal fibers. Based on the theory of diffusion, this gas-filling model can be applied to any given fiber geometry or length by calculating diffusion coefficients ...

Size-fractionated characterization and quantification of nanoparticle release rates from a consumer spray product containing engineered nanoparticles

Christian Ludwig, Andrea Ulrich, Harald Hagendorfer

This study describes methods developed for reliable quantification of size- and element-specific release of engineered nanoparticles (ENP) from consumer spray products. A modified glove box setup was designed to allow controlled spray experiments in a part ...

Modeling all exceedances above a threshold using an extremal dependence structure: Inferences on several flood characteristics

Flood quantile estimation is of great importance for several types of engineering studies and policy decisions. However, practitioners must often deal with the limited availability of data and with short-length observation series. Thus, the information mus ...

The Choice of Polar Stationary Phases for Gas-Liquid Chromatography by Statistical Analysis of Retention Data

Stephan Morgenthaler

We have studied the retention indices of 127 volatile substances on a C-78-paraffin and on its seven nearly isochor and isomorphous polar derivatives over a temperature range of 90-210 A degrees C. The retention index of a substance on the C-78 paraffin ha ...

Pressure-induced piezoelectric effects in near-lattice-matched GaN/AlInN quantum wells

Nicolas Grandjean, Eric Feltin

Near-lattice-matched GaN/AlInN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) are investigated by means of the diamond anvil cell high-pressure technique. The hydrostatic pressure dependence of the photoluminescence dE(PL)/dp and the variation in the PL peak energy with th ...

Antiferromagnetic CeCoGe2.1Si0.9 Kondo lattice under pressure

We report on electrical resistivity measurements of the anti ferromagne tic CeCoGe2.1Si0.9 Kondo lattice under hydrostatic pressures, P similar to 11 kbar. Pressure induces a quantum critical point (QCP) at P-C approximate to 6.2 kbar. Around the QCP, the ...
