Nanoparticle vaccines against infectious diseases
No full textDue to emergence of new variants of pathogenic micro-organisms the treatment and immunization of infectious diseases have become a great challenge in the past few years. In the context of vaccine development remarkable efforts have been made to develop new vaccines and also to improve the efficacy of existing vaccines against specific diseases. To date, some vaccines are developed from protein subunits or killed pathogens, whilst several vaccines are based on live-attenuated organisms, which carry the risk of regaining their pathogenicity under certain immunocompromised conditions. To avoid this, the development of risk-free effective vaccines in conjunction with adequate delivery systems are considered as an imperative need to obtain desired humoral and cell-mediated immunity against infectious diseases. In the last several years, the use of nanoparticle-based vaccines has received a great attention to improve vaccine efficacy, immunization strategies, and targeted delivery to achieve desired immune responses at the cellular level. To improve vaccine efficacy, these nanocarriers should protect the antigens from premature proteolytic degradation, facilitate antigen uptake and processing by antigen presenting cells, control release, and should be safe for human use. Nanocarriers composed of lipids, proteins, metals or polymers have already been used to attain some of these attributes. In this context, several physico-chemical properties of nanoparticles play an important role in the determination of vaccine efficacy. This review article focuses on the applications of nanocarrier-based vaccine formulations and the strategies used for the functionalization of nanoparticles to accomplish efficient delivery of vaccines in order to induce desired host immunity against infectious diseases. © 2018 Pati, Shevtsov and Sonawane

Abstract
The article is devoted to the studying of mechanism action on coagulation system the dry extract of Geranium Palustre herb. Established, those during 20-ty days of introduction the investigation extract increasing the activity of platelet’s mechanism of hemostasis (increasing platelet’s amount, their aggregation activity and retraction of blood clotting). On the background of introduction the investigation extract decreasing indicators of I and III phase of coagulation cascade (activated partial thromboplastin time, thrombin time), increasing prothrombin time and level of fibrinogen. Obtaining result suggest about active action the dry extract of Geranium Palustre herb on «external» way activation of hemocoagulation by possibility effect of accelerate the formation of thromboplastin, causing the hypercoagulation.
The mechanism of antihemmorhagic action of dry extract of Geranium Palustre herb due to the presence in the composition biological active substances (such as tannins, flavonoids, elagic, galic and ascorbinic organic acids) that acting complex on vascular-platelet and coagulation hemostasis at the expense of increasing the strength and sealing vascular-tissue barriers, P-vitamin activity – it is ability to reduce capillary fragility and permeability and increasing their resistance.
Key words: dry extract of Geranium Palustre herb, platelets, coagulation, phenolic compounds.

Стаття присвячена дослідженню механізму дії сухого екстракту трави герані болотної на систему зсідання крові. Встановлено, що протягом 20-ти денного введення досліджуваного екстракту підвищувалася активність тромбоцитарної ланки гемостазу (підвищувалася кількість тромбоцитів, їх агрегаційна здатність та ретракція кров’яного згустку). На фоні введення сухого екстракту трави герані болотної знижувалися показники I та III фази коагуляційного гемостазу (активований частковий тромбопластиновий час, тромбіновий час), підвищувався протромбіновий час та рівень фібриногену. Отримані дані свідчать про вплив сухого екстракту трави герані болотної на «внутрішній» шлях активації зсідання крові за рахунок прискорення формування тромбопластину, що призводить до гіперкоагуляції.
Механізм антигеморагічної дії сухого екстракту трави герані болотної обумовлений наявністю у складі біологічно активних речовин (дубильних речовин, флавоноїдів, елагової, галової та аскорбінової органічних кислот), які діють комплексно як на судинно-тромбоцитарний, так і на коагуляційний гемостаз за рахунок ущільнення та збільшення міцності судинно-тканинних бар’єрів, Р-вітамінної активності – здатності зменшувати проникність та ламкість капілярів, підвищувати їх резистентність.
Ключові слова: сухий екстракт трави герані болотної, тромбоцити, зсідання крові, фенольні сполуки.

ВЛИЯНИЕ СУХОГО ЭКСТРАКТА ТРАВЫ ГЕРАНИ БОЛОТНОЙ НА СИСТЕМУ СВЕРТЫВАНИЯ КРОВИ. Статья посвящена исследованию механизма действия сухого экстракта травы герани болотной на систему свертывания крови. Установлено, что на протяжении 20-ти дневного введения исследуемого экстракта повышалась активность тромбоцитарного звена гемостаза (увеличивалось количество тромбоцитов, их агрегационная способность и ретракция кровяного сгустка). На фоне введения сухого экстракта травы герани болотной снижались показатели I и III фазы коагуляционного гемостаза (активированное частичное тромбопластиновое время, тромбиновое время), повышалось протромбиновое время и уровень фибриногена. Полученные данные свидетельствуют о влиянии сухого экстракта травы герани болотной на «внутренний» путь активации свертывания крови за счет ускорения формирования тромбопластина, что приводит к гиперкоагуляции.
Механизм антигеморрагического действия сухого экстракта травы герани болотной обусловлен наличием в составе биологически активных соединений (дубильных веществ, флавоноидов, эллаговой, галловой и аскорбиновой органических кислот), которые действуют комплексно как на сосудисто-тромбоцитарный, так и на коагуляционный гемостаз за счет уплотнения и увеличения прочности сосудисто-тканевых барьеров, Р-витаминной активности – способности уменьшать проницаемость и ломкость капилляров, повышать их резистентность.

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods

Simulation of thermal plant optimization and hydraulic aspects of thermal distribution loops for large campuses
No full textFollowing an introduction, the author describes Texas A&M University and its utilities system. After that, the author presents how to construct simulation models for chilled water and heating hot water distribution systems. The simulation model was used in a $2.3 million Ross Street chilled water pipe replacement project at Texas A&M University. A second project conducted at the University of Texas at San Antonio was used as an example to demonstrate how to identify and design an optimal distribution system by using a simulation model. The author found that the minor losses of these closed loop thermal distribution systems are significantly higher than potable water distribution systems. In the second part of the report, the author presents the latest development of software called the Plant Optimization Program, which can simulate cogeneration plant operation, estimate its operation cost and provide optimized operation suggestions. The author also developed detailed simulation models for a gas turbine and heat recovery steam generator and identified significant potential savings. Finally, the author also used a steam turbine as an example to present a multi-regression method on constructing simulation models by using basic statistics and optimization algorithms. This report presents a survey of the author??s working experience at the Energy Systems Laboratory (ESL) at Texas A&M University during the period of January 2002 through March 2004. The purpose of the above work was to allow the author to become familiar with the practice of engineering. The result is that the author knows how to complete a project from start to finish and understands how both technical and nontechnical aspects of a project need to be considered in order to ensure a quality deliverable and bring a project to successful completion. This report concludes that the objectives of the internship were successfully accomplished and that the requirements for the degree of Degree of Engineering have been satisfied

fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Engineering."Includes bibliographical referencesA review of the author's internship experience with CH���M HILL, Inc.
during the period September 1975 through May 1976 is presented. During this nine month
internship the author worked as an Engineer II in the Industrial Processes discipline of this
large consulting engineering firm... The author's prime responsibility was as one of three
lead design engineers on the design of a large wastewater treatment facility for a pulp mill
in Hoquiam, Washington owned by ITT Rayonier Inc. The work generally consisted of the design
of individual treatment units and associated piping and pumping. The purpose of the project
was to provide wastewater treatment capabilities that would satisfy the effluent limitations
(standards) imposed upon the mill by the State of Washington Department of Ecology and the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The author's assignment also entailed necessary
interaction with the project manager and other CH���M HILL design engineers and support staff
members, the client's representatives, and representatives of two other consulting engineering
firms working on the project. Thus, the internship position at CH���M HILL provided considerable
experience coordinating the author's work with the work of other engineers, guiding the design
and administrative efforts of a support staff, and interacting regularly with the client and
other consulting firms. This broad exposure to a variety of engineering and organizational
problems provided a valuable educational experience
