Prefabricated construction (PC) is an increasingly popular method of construction utilized globally due to its high productivity and efficient performance. PC as an advanced building technique is susceptible to problems such as the immaturity of the PC industry’s development, inability to realize production benefits, and application-related risks and uncertainties. The management of PC (MPC) can be applied to resolve these difficulties and generally enhance performance. Reviews pertinent to the MPC ...

Abstract The study of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) heterogeneity is one of the main problems that must be solved, and the different sEV subtypes in follicular fluid are still unclear, limiting our understanding of their function. This study first separated sEV subtypes from follicular fluid using differential ultracentrifugation combined with iodixanol density gradient flotation and then evaluated their miRNA profile and effects on the proliferation and apoptosis of granulosa cells (GCs). We ...

Purpose This study proposes an approach to solve the fundamental problem in using query-based methods (i.e. searching engines and patent retrieval tools) to screen patents of information and communication technology in construction (ICTC). The fundamental problem is that ICTC incorporates various techniques and thus cannot be simply represented by man-made queries. To investigate this concern, this study develops a binary classifier by utilizing deep learning and NLP techniques to automatically identify ...

The Wilms tumor (WT) gene WT1 encodes the splicing variants WT1(+KTS) and WT1(-KTS). Recent data suggest that WT1 plays an important role in the development of mice follicles. However, the mechanism through which WT1 influences ovarian steroidogenesis remains unknown. This study identified WT1 and evaluated the impact of splicing variants WT1(+KTS) and WT1(-KTS) on steroidogenesis using adult bovine granulosa cells (GCs). Using RT-qPCR and western blotting, we found that the ratio between WT1(+KTS) ...

Melatonin is present in mammalian follicular fluid and plays an important role in regulating steroidogenesis in follicular cells. In this study, we report the effect of melatonin on steroidogenesis in the theca interna (TI) in small bovine follicles and theca cells (TCs) cultured in vitro. Treatment with melatonin significantly increased the expression of steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (STAR) and the production of progesterone in both TI and in TCs. Melatonin stimulated the phosphorylation ...

Silica (SiO2) is found to react readily with ethylene glycol (EGH2) to form neutral glycoxysilanes in the presence of catalytic amounts of high-boiling organic amines, such as triethylenetetramine (TETA), trishydroxymethyleneaminomethane [H2NC(CH2OH)3, THAMH3], and triethanolamine [N(CH2CH2OH)3, TEAH3]. Kinetic studies show that these amines offer similar catalytic efficiencies although their pKb values differ by 3 orders of magnitude. In addition, silica dissolution is found to be pseudo-zero order ...

Silatrane glycol 2 can be reacted with acetic anhydride to produce 1-acetoxysilatrane, 4. Compound 4 undergoes facile ligand exchange allowing the synthesis of a number of reactive compounds including: 1-methacryloxysilatrane 5, 1-allyloxysilatrane 6 and 2-[(propen-2-yloxy)ethanoxy]silatrane 7 all of which are potentially ...
