  • The cholinesterase-inhibiting organophosphorous (OP) compounds known as nerve agents are highly toxic. The principal toxic mechanism of OP compounds is the inhibition of acethylcholine esterase (AChE) by phosphorylation of its catalytic site. The reversible competitive inhibition of AChE may prevent the subsequent OP intoxication. In this study, three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) was performed to investigate the relationship between the 29 compounds with structural diversity and their bioactivities against AChE. In particular, predictive models were constructed using the comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA). The results indicate reasonable model for CoMFA ($q^{2}=0.453,\;r^{2}=0.697$) and CoMSIA ($q^{2}=0.518,\;r^{2}=0.696$). The presence of steric and hydophobic group at naphtyl moiety of the model may lead to the design of improved competitive inhibitors for organophosphorous intoxication.

  • The photovoltaic and the electronvoltaic cells have been obtained by forming Sb-implanted n- on p-type and In-implanted p- on n-type silicon p-n junctions Such shallow implantations into silicon wafers due to each dopant were done by the VDH-Implanter. The two types of the silicon p-n junction for these cells have shown special features on their various characteristics to be fitted for the direct energy conversions. The results of the comparative study on both of these cells are described in this article.

  • Recently, many companies want to accept and operate ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system in their fields ERP does not only include business, but also include finance, account, trade, personnel and BPR(Business Process Reengineering). Especially, it is necessary to have ERP system for companies which have lots of external business such as trade and communication sector. And then, in this paper, I will think about OLTP (On-Line Transaction Processing) system for operating ERP system and improve its defects that can operate more effective sales, circulation, demand plan. But it is regrettable that I can not make a comparative analysis with other systems because the ERP system is still on the introductory stage for the company studies and the benefits have not been realized yet. Another limitation of this research is its narrow scope of study in which only the raw material inventory system for a single company is covered. In the future, however, ERP system would be adopted by many corporations, which would help us to launch a comparative study on the results of ERP system implementation as a future direction of research.

  • From the perspective of phenomenongraphy(根据登的象式), two videotaped mathematics lessons were observed, compared and analyzed, and the features of those times were extracted. The quantitative and qualitative analysis of the global structure and the questioning in the lessons etc. showed that in teaching behaviors there were some essential differences reflecting the impact of new beliefs and principles of teaching. Evidences also show that excellent teachers did keep and carry on the good tradition teaching for basic knowledge and basic skills were seen as the most important thing in mathematics teaching in China.

  • There is great interest in the applicability of electrogenerated hydrogen peroxide to a wide variety of industrial processes, usually involving oxidation of organics. Hydrogen peroxide is now employed for the bleaching of mechanical pulp and the bleaching of chemical pulp in the pulp and paper industry, thus displacing the traditional alkaline treatments with chlorine-based chemicals. This psper reperts a comparative study of $H_{2}O_{2}$ electogeneration on gas-diffusion electrode in divided cell with several $Nafion^{(R)}$ protonexchange membranes, Russian cation-exchange membrane MK-40 and SPEEK membrane. The influence of different PEMs on electrochemical cell voltage, current efficiency and energy consumption of hydrogen peroxide electrogeneration has been stadied.

  • Domestic poultry are among the non-target species of exposure to fipronil, but limited information is available on the metabolic effects of fipronil exposure in avian. We investigated the comparative capacity of in vitro biotransformation of fipronil among chicken, duck, quail, goose, and rat. Interspecies differences in kinetic parameters were observed; the clearance rate calculations (Vmax/Km) indicated that chicken and duck are more efficient in the cytochrome P450-mediated metabolism of fipronil to sulfone than quail, goose and rat. The lower hepatic clearance of fipronil in quail, goose and rat, suggested that fipronil sulfone may serve as a biomarker to indicate fipronil exposure in these species.

  • Background: Infantile colic (IC) is excessive crying in otherwise healthy children. Despite vast research efforts, its etiology remains unknown. Purpose: Most treatments for IC carry various side effects. The collection of evidence may inform researchers of new strategies for the management and treatment of IC as well as new clues for understanding its pathogenesis. This review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy and possible mechanisms of probiotics for mananaging IC. Methods: Ten papers met the study inclusion and exclusion criteria, and the meta-analysis was conducted using Review Manager (RevMan) software and a random-effects model. Results: This meta-analysis revealed that probiotics are effective for treating infantile colic, while the review showed that this efficacy may be due to their anti-inflammatory effects. Conclusion: Probiotics may be an important treatment option for managing infantile colic due to their anti-inflammatory properties.
