Gamma activation method on linac NSC KIPT, IR-spectrometry and crystal-optical investigations have been used to determinate the content of elements, the phase analysis and structural features of a different organic and inorganic compound in gallstones of patients with hiatal hernia in Kharkiv region. It is shown that it is possible to establish the presence in gallstones of such compounds as bilirubin and its salts, calcium phosphates, calcium carbonate, and different microelements. In the main, the patients of the Kharkiv region have gallstones of mixed type with a combination of cholesterol, calcium carbonate bilirubinate.

Abstract Recent significant discoveries of uranium mineralization in the southwestern Athabasca basin, northern Saskatchewan, Canada, have been associated with a series of geophysical conductors along a NE- to SW-trending structural zone, termed the Patterson Lake corridor. The Arrow deposit (indicated mineral resource: 256.6 Mlb U3O8; grade 4.03% U3O8) is along this trend, hosted exclusively in basement orthogneisses of the Taltson domain, and is the largest undeveloped uranium deposit in the basin. This study is the first detailed analysis of a deposit along this corridor and examines the relationships between the ductile framework and brittle reactivation of structures, mineral paragenesis, and uranium mineralization. Paragenetic information from hundreds of drill core samples and thin sections was integrated with structural analysis utilizing over 18,000 measurements of various structural features. The structural system at Arrow is interpreted as a partitioned, strike-slip–dominated, brittle-ductile fault system of complex Riedel-style geometry. The system developed along subvertical, NE- to SW-trending dextral high-strain zones formed syn- to post-D3 deformation, which were the focus of extensive premineralization metasomatism (quartz flooding, sericitization, chloritization), within the limb domain of a regional-scale fold structure. These zones evolved through post-Athabasca dextral and sinistral reactivation events, creating brittle fault linkages and dilation zones, allowing for hydrothermal fluid migration and resulting uraninite precipitation and associated alteration (white mica, chlorite, kaolinite, hematite, quartz veins). This study of the structural context of Arrow is important as it emphasizes that protracted reactivation of deep-seated structures and their subsidiaries was a fundamental control on uranium mineralization in the southwestern Athabasca basin.

The deposition of α-syn (α-synuclein) fibrils in Lewy bodies is a characteristic feature of individuals with neurodegenerative disorders. A peptide comprising the central residues 71–82 of α-syn [α-syn(71–82)] is capable of forming β-sheet-rich, amyloid-like fibrils with similar morphologies to fibrils of the full-length protein, providing a useful model of pathogenic α-syn fibrils that is suitable for detailed structural analysis. We have studied the morphology and gross structural features of α-syn(71–82) fibrils formed under different conditions in order to obtain reliable conditions for producing fibrils for further structural investigations. The results indicate that the rate of aggregation and the morphology of the fibrils formed are sensitive to pH and temperature.

Microbial Lipases

The structural elucidations of microbial lipases have been of prime interest since the 1980s. Knowledge of structural features plays an important role in designing and engineering lipases for specific purposes. Significant structural data have been presented for few microbial lipases, while, there is still a structure-deficit, that is, most lipase structures are yet to be resolved. A search for ‘lipase structure’ in the RCSB Protein Data Bank ( http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/ ) returns only 93 hits (as of September 2007) and, the NCBI database ( http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov ) reports 89 lipase structures as compared to 14719 core nucleotide records. It is therefore worthwhile to consider investigations on the structural analysis of microbial lipases. This review is intended to provide a collection of resources on the instrumental, chemical and bioinformatics approaches for structure analyses. X-ray crystallography is a versatile tool for the structural biochemists and is been exploited till today. The chemical methods of recent interests include molecular modeling and combinatorial designs. Bioinformatics has surged striking interests in protein structural analysis with the advent of innumerable tools. Furthermore, a literature platform of the structural elucidations so far investigated has been presented with detailed descriptions as applicable to microbial lipases. A case study of Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) has also been discussed which highlights important structural features also common to most lipases. A general profile of lipase has been vividly described with an overview of lipase research reviewed in the past.

Structural analysis in a transit network is a key aspect used to evaluate in a planning process. In this sense, the use of network science was applied in this work to generate a framework of the main structural features of a transport network. In this case, an alternative transport network in Guadalajara, Mexico was taken as an example. The network properties selected were grade of accessibility, spatial friction, and vulnerability. In the case of the grade of accessibility, this propriety makes reference to the efficiency of the travel time that the network gives due to its structural features. The spatial friction measures how direct in terms of distance the trips that the network provides are, and the vulnerability relates to the ease with which the network can comprise its performance by affectations to their nodes or links. In this sense, this work presents a detailed methodology and a set of open-source tools that can be used to measure these key structural elements for decision making.

<p>Structural analysis of molecular pores can yield important information on their behaviour in solution and in the bulk. We developed pywindow, a python package that allows for the automated analysis of structural features of porous molecular materials, such as molecular cages. Our analysis includes the cavity diameter, number of windows, window diameters and average molecular diameter. Molecular dynamics trajectories of can also be analysed to explore the influence of flexibility. We present the methodology, validation and application of pywindow for the analysis of molecular pores, metal-organic polyhedra and some instances of framework materials. pywindow is freely available from github.com/JelfsMaterialsGroup/pywindow.</p>

Optimization of fractured or destroyed removable partial dentures realized from CoCrMo alloys are possible due to modern welding equipments. The aim of study was to offer the processing and welding optimal parameters for some long lasting prosthetic pieces made of a new alloy from the system CoCrMoTi. Laser welding equipments was a Mini Laser XXS (Orotig Italia) and the tested samples were welded in butt joint, without filler material. There are presented in comparison results concerning macro and micro structural analysis made on stereomicroscope and microscope type OLYMPUS. Finally a correlation between different welding parameter values and structural features was made for the new dental cobalt alloy.
