    Notes: A humoral response of Japanese eel, Anguilla japonica Temminck & Schlegel, to the microsporean Pleistophora anguillarum Hoshina was demonstrated using immunoblotting and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Japanese eel immunoglobulin was purified by affinity chromatography. The immunoglobulin was composed of 25-kDa light chains and 72-kDa heavy chains. The ELISA values of P. anguillarum antibodies in naturally infected fish sera were significantly higher than those of clinically healthy fish. Spore proteins from the microsporean were separated by electrophoresis and subjected to analysis by Western blot. Sera from naturally infected fish showed different reaction patterns to the spore proteins. While the sera randomly selected from naturally infected eels all showed a significant positive reaction to P. anguillarum antigens, the mucus from only three out of the nine infected eels reacted positively in the ELISA test. Subsequent analyses indicated that there was no significant difference in the amount of mucus immunoglobulin among the tested eels. Therefore, the generally lower ELISA values of mucosal anti-P. anguillarum antibodies from the infected eels tested were evidently not caused by a lack of immunoglobulin per se, but seem to be the result of a lack of anti-P. anguillarum antibodies in the mucus and/or a lower affinity in the anti-P. anguillarum antibodies that were present.

    Notes: Adult Japanese eels, Anguilla japonica Temminck & Schlegel, (200–250 g, 45–55 cm) were immunized by intramuscular injection with goat IgG. After 5 weeks, eel immunoglobulin (Ig) was purified using affinity chromatography. The purified eel Ig was used to immunize rabbits to produce anti-eel Ig antibody. The highest antibody ELISA value in eels was reached 3 weeks after initial immunization with goat IgG, and then gradually decreased. The antibody could still be detected at 140 days post-immunization. The optimal temperature for antibody production was 30°C. Freund’s complete adjuvant and secondary immunization both increased antibody production in eels.

    Notes: Abstract A case report of orofacial pain originating from both dental and nondental conditions is presented. The spontaneous throbbing pain initiated from the left maxillary second premolar and spread throughout the entire upper part of the lace to the frontoparietal area. Root canal treatment of the maxillary second premolar did not resolve the chief complaint. Magnetic resonance imaging examination revealed hypertrophy of the left inferior turbinate and soft tissue haziness in the left maxillary sinus floor. After antrostomy, submucosal turbinectomy; and endodontic treatment, the patient was free from pain. The final diagnosis of this case, in addition to pulpitis, was maxillary sinusitis with chronic rhinitis. The multiple factors associated with the etiology made the diagnosis difficult. The mechanism of referred pain from the maxillary sinus and paranasal nuicosa to the maxillary teeth and face is discussed.

    Notes: Human salivary cystatin, a thiol proteinase inhibitor, has been implicated in potential antimicrobial and antiviral functions of saliva. A variant of human salivary cystatin SN expressed and purified in an Escherichia coli expression system lacking residues 12–16 near the N-terminus (Δ12–16) has been crystallized by the vapor-diffusion technique. The crystals are of the hexagonal space group P622 and have cell constants of a = 85.41, b = 85.41, c = 131.6 Å, α = β = 90, γ = 120°, and contain two molecules of molecular weight 13 500 per asymmetric unit. The crystals diffract up to a resolution of 2.2 Å and are suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis.

    Notes: Abstract In this work we propose two techniques for improving VLSI implementations for artificial neural networks (ANNs). By making use of two kinds of processing elements (PEs), one dedicated to the basic operations (addition and multiplication) and another to evaluate the activation function, the total time and cost for the VLSI array implementation of ANNs can be decreased by a factor of two compared with previous work. Taking the advantage of residue number system, the efficiency of each PE can be further increased. Two RNS- based array processor designs are proposed. The first is built by look-up tables, and the second is constructed by binary adders accomplished by the mixed- radix conversion (MRC), such that the hardwares are simple and high speed operations are obtained. The proposed techniques are general enough to be extended to cover other forms of loading and learning algorithms.

    Notes: Abstract An air quality monitoring network (AQMN) usually performs the basic function of assessment of regional air quality and demonstration of compliance with ambient air quality standards in an urban area. Different pollutants, however, may present different characteristic variabilities due to their specific emission patterns, rates of diffusion, and transport and transformation behaviors. But the costs of siting in a pollutant-specific monitoring network would be higher than that for a common network with respect to several pollutants monitored simultaneously. This paper presents a survey of multi-pollutant design principles and optimal searches for siting patterns of an AQMN using both simulation and optimization models as a combined tool. While conservative, quasi-stable, and reactive pollutants are considered in the design principles, cost, coverage effectiveness, and spatial correlation characteristics are included in the multi-criteria decision making process. For illustrative purpose, a series of technical settings and two types of objectives were examined in the case study for the city of Kaohsiung in Taiwan.
