Record 3 2012-01-23

English

Subject field(s)
  • Bioengineering
CONT

A new approach, namely magnetic resonance navigation(MRN), has been proposed to overcome the limitations of the older systems. It has shown great potential in the targeted delivery of endovascular magnetic carriers in deep tissues to areas of interest, while minimizing systemic carrier distribution.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Technique biologique
CONT

La navigation par résonance magnétique (‘magnetic resonance navigation’ (MRN)) a été récemment proposée comme une nouvelle méthode de ciblage magnétique des tumeurs. Elle consiste à contrôler la direction d’un corps ferromagnétique en temps réel selon une trajectoire prédéterminée dès son injection dans un réseau vasculaire jusqu’à la zone d’intérêt grâce à un appareil d’imagerie par résonance magnétique (IRM).

Record 4 2010-12-23

English

Subject field(s)
  • Biological Sciences
CONT

As coenzymes are vitamin derivatives and their chemical structures are known, immobilization methods for them can be easily selected. However, when a coenzyme is directly bound to a water-insoluble carrier, high-molecular-weight apoenzyme often cannot approach the coenzyme closely due to the steric hindrance of the carrier. To overcome this steric hindrance, appropriate chain structures termed "spacers" or "arms" are interposed between the carrier and coenzyme.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sciences biologiques
DEF

Chaîne carbonée non réactive intercalée entre l'effecteur et le support pour empêcher l'encombrement stérique de ce dernier qui risque de gêner l'action de l'effecteur.

CONT

Ces bras sont constitués par des chaînes carbonées (portant éventuellement des groupes fonctionnels hydrophiles), terminées par un groupe - COOH ou - NH2. La fixation de la protéine enzymatique peut être réalisée au moyen d'un carbodiimide, respectivement par un groupe - NH2 ou - COOH. L'enzyme se trouve alors combinée au support par une fonction amide très résistante, et le bras d'espacement diminue les contraintes stériques et facilite l'accès du substrat.

OBS

... new regulations are designed to establish a common approach to safety ratings to ensure that comparable safety performance results in a comparable safety rating regardless of the province in which the carrier operates.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sécurité routière
  • Camionnage
CONT

Les entreprises de transport par camion du Québec sont déjà familières avec le concept de cote de sécurité. Il y a chez nous trois cotes possibles : satisfaisant, conditionnel ou insatisfaisant, cette dernière cote enlevant le droit à un transporteur de circuler. Le problème, c'est que d'autres provinces canadiennes ont aussi établi des systèmes similaires. Ainsi, dès qu'un transporteur fait affaire dans plusieurs provinces, voilà qu'il peut afficher des cotes de sécurité différentes (sinon carrément contradictoires) d'une administration à l'autre [...]

Subject field(s)
  • Spacecraft
  • Orbital Stations
CONT

H-II Transfer Vehicle is one of the orbital transfer vehicles which is designed to transport various cargos to the International Space Station(ISS) with the Japanese H-IIA rocket. The HTV will approach and hover beside the Space Station, then the HTV will be captured by ISS manipulator and will be berthed to the predicted position. To avoid any hazardous situation to the Space Station during free flight, the HTV is designed to meet the needs of high reliability and safety. The HTV is planned to outfit with two types of logistics carrier for efficient transportation.

OBS

H-II transfer vehicle; HTV: term and abbreviation officially approved by the International Space Station official approval Group (ISSOAG).

Subject field(s)
  • Economic Doctrines, Systems and Policies
  • Pricing Theory
  • Laws of the Market (Economy)
CONT

Economists have proposed ECPR for situations where a new entrant must gain entry to a bottleneck facility if it is to compete with the incumbent carrier. It originated in a regulatory context where the focus was on creating a level playing field on which the incumbent and the host could compete.

CONT

Telecom's approach is based on the "Efficient Component Pricing Rule"(ECPR) or Baumol-Willig rule, which requires full compensation of the monopoly carrier for profits lost as a result of entry.

Record 10 1990-01-15

English

Subject field(s)
  • Biological Sciences
DEF

Nonbonded repulsions between atoms or groups of atoms in a molecule or transition state. For example, it is greater in cis-2-butene than in trans-2-butene because of the closeness of the two methyl groups in the former.

CONT

When an enzyme is immobilized by using a water-insoluble polymer carrier, the enzyme activity toward substrates of high molecular weight is markedly reduced due to steric hindrance which obstructs the approach of the substrate to the enzyme molecule. However, the activity of immobilized enzyme toward substrates of low molecular weight is similar to that of the native enzyme because the substrate can easily approach the enzyme molecule.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sciences biologiques
DEF

Accumulation de groupements volumineux autour d'un centre réactionnel, qui en rend l'accès difficile.

CONT

Tout comme il interagit avec la structure tridimensionnelle de l'enzyme, le microenvironnement imposé par l'immobilisation peut en modifier le comportement apparent pour des raisons purement mécaniques d'encombrement stérique. L'accessibilité des différents sites d'une enzyme est en effet fortement conditionnée par la méthode d'immobilisation choisie. La différence avec l'enzyme soluble est d'autant plus marquée que le substrat ou l'effecteur sont de taille plus importante.
