An introduction of colonial framework from watanic jurisprudence analysis: A case study on the malay states by Wan Ahmad Fauzi, Wan Husain

“…This study is essential because many writings employ the words ‘colony’, ‘colonisation’, ‘under colonial rule’, and ‘colonised states’ arbitrarily without first examining the legal position of any state, including the Malay states that were once under the influence of the British. The above attitude renders the study of many aspects of ‘the so-called colonised Malay states’ biased and constructed from the wrong foundation. …”

Fusion of cultures plays a part in writing styles & translation by Chen, Lijun

“…The reason for selecting the chapter On a Wild Goose Chase is firstly, there are vast amount of dialogues amongst people, which is a great area for cultural translation analysis; secondly, there is a wide use of idioms, idiomatic expressions, proverbs, sayings and metaphors in the chosen chapter. This renders a great ground for discussion on the topic of “Fusion of cultures plays a part in writing styles and translation”. …”

Resistive switching memory phenomena in PEDOT PSS : coexistence of switchable diode effect and write once read many memory by Nguyen, Viet Cuong, Lee, Pooi See

“…The same PEDOT PSS device also exhibits write once read many memory (WORM) phenomenon which arises due to redox reaction that reduces PEDOT PSS and renders it non-conducting. The revelation of these two types of memory phenomena in PEDOT PSS highlights the remarkable versatility of this conducting conjugated polymer.…”

Death of the Covenant Code: evaluating the translation of laws with capital punishment in Old Greek Exodus 21.1-23.19 in light of Graeco-Egyptian law by Korytko, J

“…In other cases, the translator renders with terms or phrases that superficially represent the Hebrew source text but do not semantically correspond to the Hebrew text in the Greek translation. …”

Identifying mechanisms involved in the resistance of homologous recombination defective Dictyostelium cells to ART inhibitors by Kolb, A

“…We further identify that HR inhibition is toxic for cells disrupted in the single-strand break responding PARP Adprt2, whereas an additional loss of the non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ)-promoting PARP Adprt1a renders cells resistant to the treatment. Accordingly, a defect in NHEJ suppresses PARPi toxicity to HR-defective <em>exo1^-</em> strains which is not dependent on the alternative NHEJ (alt-NHEJ) factors Lig3 and PolQ but instead due to re-activation of HR. …”

Enrichment of carotene from palm oil by organic solvent nanofiltration by Ghazali, Nazlee Faisal, Md. Hanim, Khairilanuar, Pahlawi, Qadly Ameen, Lim, Ki Min

“…Various techniques have been developed to extract and recover carotenes from palm oil, however these processes often require high energy usage, and usually renders the oil useless for further consumption. Recently, organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) has become an important method for molecular separation particularly for the separation of low molecular weight bioactive compounds. …”

Internal and external co-engineering of stable cathode interface improves cycle performance of polymer sodium batteries by Pan, Jun, Hu, Lulu, Zhang, Yuchen, Zhang, Tao, Wang, Nana, Dou, Shixue, Fan, Hong Jin

“…Internally, the effect of low-cost Fe substitution in the obtained Na0.67Mn2/3Fe1/3O2 cathode material renders favorable effects in several aspects. First, the increased lattice constant facilitates Na+ intercalation and thereby lowers the diffusion barrier of Na+ ions. …”

The FGFR inhibitor PD173074 binds to the C-terminus of oncofetal HMGA2 and modulates its DNA-binding and transcriptional activation functions by Ahmed, Syed Moiz, Ragunathan, Priya, Shin, Joon, Peter, Sabrina, Kleissle, Sabrina, Neuenschwander, Martin, Schäfer, Reinhold, Kries, Jens Peter V., Grüber, Gerhard, Dröge, Peter

“…HMGA2 is not expressed in most normal adult somatic cells, which renders the protein an attractive drug target. An established cell-based compound library screen identified the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitor PD173074 as an antagonist of HMGA2-mediated transcriptional reporter gene activation. …”
