Boronic acid and nitrofuranyl derivatives as potential therapeutics by Dey, AL

“…However, the desired NInC proved unstable and the studies on ester hydrolysis of these novel NInCs suggest that a suitable ester prodrug of these potential drug conjugates may be promising in a clinical setting. Last but not least, it is hoped that a handful of these potentially novel therapeutics could further be developed into leads or drug candidates either in Oxford or elsewhere in an attempt to tackle the ever-increasing antibacterial resistance. …”

A study on Chinese religion model and how it may inspire interreligious relations in Singapore by Feng, Yiqin

“…Chapter 2 focuses on the Chinese Religion Model in contemporary China, which is subdivided into three parts. The first part investigates the state control on religious affairs since the mid-20th century; the second part analyzes on the modern religious practice as a result of religious coexistence and hybridity; and the third part further explains the Chinese Religious Model which consists of efficacy-based religious practice and ambiguous religious identity. …”

The battle for Asia in crude oil markets: an easier road ahead for India? by Sen, A

“…Even though the drop in prices is unlikely to last (given the high cost on the supply side) and prices are likely to pick back up to at least the US$80–100 per barrel range in the coming years, India will remain in a privileged position compared to a few years ago, as the continued growth of US tight oil means producers from all around the world will still focus on Asia to sell their crude. …”

Advancements in multiple-step on-line preconcentration techniques for enhanced sensitivity in capillary electrophoresis by Abdul Keyon, Aemi Syazwani, Ng, Nyuk Ting, Breadmore, Michael Charles

Writers' libraries and vestigial notes as cultural heritage: minding the gaps in the material record by Van Hulle, D

“…Paying special attention to the risks of implicit material bias, the essay develops an analogy with André Malraux's musée imaginaire. Its two-part structure focuses first on (a teleological and a dysteleological approach to) vestigial notes, followed by the second part on methods of reconstructing writers' libraries (both extant and virtual).…”

Co-operation and competition : the role of identity and social preferences by Chen, Hongyu, Zhang, Ruike, Zhang, Shaoyu

“…Moreover, while considering the interactive effects between gender and information, we observe that male subjects generally behave more aggressively than female and the impact of identity on them could be enhanced by unveiling both Intra-Group and Inter-Group Information. Last but not least, the experimental results suggest that a heterogeneous team composition leads to higher degree of rent dissipation.…”
