End-capping of conjugated thiophene-benzene aromatic systems
The synthesis of end-capped thieno[3,2-f:4,5-f′]bis[1]benzothiophene was achieved from thiophene and 2,5-thiophenedicarboxaldehyde. Specifically, hexyl and dodecyl end-capping groups conferred reversible redox behavior as evidenced by cyclic voltammetry with oxidation potentials of 0.73 V versus Fc-Fc+ couple. An extensive spectrophotometric analysis is reported. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Gustav Ritter von Wex, sein Leben und Werk
Summary: The regulation works of Danube river along Vienna city around 1870 are described as a monumental European project of the 19th century. The publications of the project head Gustav von Wex (1811-1892) are thereby reviewed, given that he therein considered the historical bases, the imperial decision, the project outline and the advances of the works. In addition, the scientific works of von Wex are also described and put into a historical context. Finally, the biography of von Wex is presented along with the problems in searching successfully his portrait. This historical work is intended to add to the early developments in river engineering of Europ
Altering the emission behavior with the turn of a thiophene ring: The photophysics of condensed ring systems of alternating benzenes and thiophenes
Six aromatic compounds with embedded thiophenes differing in the number of rings (2-5) and thiophene orientation along the long axis of the molecule (syn, anti) were investigated. Photophysical properties, steady-state absorption, fluorescence, phosphorescence, lifetimes, quantum yields, and a comprehensive time-resolved spectroscopic analysis (femtosecond and nanosecond transient absorption spectroscopy) have been studied as a function of molecular structure. © 2006 American Chemical Society.Aaron JJ, 2002, J FLUORESC, V12, P231, DOI 10.1023-A:1016869002735; Abdel-Shafi AA, 2005, J PHOTOCH PHOTOBIO A, V172, P170, DOI 10.1016-j.photochem.2004.12.006; AGGARWAL N, 1979, ORG PREP PROCED INT, V11, P247; Becker RS, 1996, J PHYS CHEM-US, V100, P18683, DOI 10.1021-jp960852e; BEIMLING P, 1986, CHEM BER-RECL, V119, P3198, DOI 10.1002-cber.19861191025; Berlman I.

ASH-WEX affects the distribution of events in the IMR-32 cell cycle.
<p>IMR-32 cells were treated with 0.5% ASH-WEX and RA for 72 h (a). The evaluation of cell cycle progression was done by DNA staining by propidium iodide. The figure shows representative FACS profiles of the distribution of cells in G0/G1, S, and G2/M phases as analysed by FCS software. (b) Histogram represents percentage distribution of the cells in different phases (G0/G1, S, and G2/M) after ASH-WEX treatment as compared to control. (c) Flow cytometric examination of apoptosis, necrosis and cell viability-the Annexin V/PI assay. Diagrams show four subgroups of cells. Viable (Q1, annexin V-, PI-), early apoptotic (Q2, annexin V+, PI-), late apoptotic (Q3, annexin V+, PI+) and necrotic/damaged (Q4, annexin V-, PI+) are represented in different quadrants. (d) Histogram represents percentage distribution of the cells in different quadrants. “*” represents the statistical significant (p<0.05) difference between control and ASH-WEX treated groups.</p

Representative phase contrast images of control, 0.2% or 0,5% ASH-WEX and RA treated cells, in which motility was analyzed by Wound-scratch test (a).
<p>Images show the starting (0 h after scratch) and the end (24 h after scratch) point of the analysis. (b) Graph shows that the rate of IMR-32 migration in response to ASH-WEX treatment in comparison to untreated cells. Data are obtained from a set of scratch test analysis (N = 3) and are expressed as means ± standard error. Representative MMP zymogram from control and treated samples and their densometery analysis is represented as histogram (c). mRNA expression for MMP2 and MMP9 was analyzed by RT-PCR. Relative percentage expression was expressed as histogram (d). “*” represents the statistical significant (p<0.05) difference between control and ASH-WEX treated groups.</p
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

<p>Whereas H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> treated cells showed increase in ROS and γH2AX, cells recovered either in the presence of i-Extract, withanone, WEX or combination of i-Extract and WEX showed decrease.</p
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
