ENTROPY-BASED ALGORITHM FOR SUPPLY-CHAIN COMPLEXITY ASSESSMENT

Entropy-Based Algorithm for Supply-Chain Complexity Assessment

This paper considers a graph model of hierarchical supply chains.The goal is to measure the complexity of links between different components of the chain, for instance, between the principal equipment manufacturer (a root node) and its suppliers (preceding supply nodes).The information entropy is used to Vinegars serve as a measure of knowledge abo

Epidermal growth factor receptor inhibition reduces angiogenesis via hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and Notch1 in head neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Angiogenesis, a marker of cancer development, affects response to radiotherapy sensibility.This preclinical study aims to understand the receptor tyrosine kinase-mediated angiogenesis in head neck squamous cell Fat Quarter Patterns carcinoma (HNSCC).The receptor tyrosine kinase activity in a transgenic mouse model of HNSCC was assessed.The anti-tum

A Bifunctional Fluorescence Probe Based on AIE-ICT Strategy for Visual Detection of Cu2+/Co2+ in Complex Matrix

A novel fluorescence chemical sensor-based probe 1-{[(E)-(2-aminophenyl)azanylidene]methyl}naphthalen-2-ol (AMN) was designed Fender Flare and synthesized, which performed a “naked eye” detection ability toward Cu2+ and Co2+ based on aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorescence strategy.It has sensitive detection ability for Cu2+ and Co2+.In

In Vitro Characterization of the Pharmacological Properties of the Anti-Cancer Chelator, Bp4eT, and Its Phase I Metabolites.

Cancer cells have a high iron requirement and many experimental studies, as well as clinical trials, have demonstrated that iron chelators are potential anti-cancer agents.The ligand, 2-benzoylpyridine 4-ethyl-3-thiosemicarbazone (Bp4eT), demonstrates both potent anti-neoplastic and anti-retroviral properties.In this study, Bp4eT and its recently i
