The major purpose of this research was to characterize partially degraded proteins
appearing in the ocular lens during aging and cataract, and to identify the responsible
proteolytic activities. This research is significant, because increased protein
degradation is associated with lens opacification and cataract. Determining the sites
where lens proteins become...
Recently, the number of leisure fishers has increased in Japan. Recreational anglers have caught larger numbers of fishes than commercial fishermen in some species. Formulating an appropriate management strategy that considers recreational and commercial sectors is important. Sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) has been caught in Lake Toya, Hokkaido, Japan, by...
The primary goal of my studies was to elucidate the mechanisms for the well-recognized interaction between two nutrients, vitamins E and K. The outcomes from my studies assess mechanisms for adverse effects of vitamin E and provide novel information on mechanisms for vitamin K homeostasis. These findings will provide information...
This paper presents a introduction of the developed system by that fisherman share various information. This system is characterized by the application of data mining methods and the introduction of IC tags. We compute the predict price formula by data mining of product value. The predict price of each port...
With the decline in fishery production and progress of the aging of fishermen, facilities that enable safe fishing activities for the elderly and systematic production have been called for in the fishing industry in recent years. While high-quality fukuro funori (Gloiopeltis furcata) produced in the coastal waters off Kamiiso Town,...
We report an experimental and theoretical study of single-molecule inner-shell photoemission measured over an extended range of photon energies. The vibrational intensity ratios I (nu = 1)/I (nu = 0) from the C 1s photoelectron spectra of carbon monoxide, although mostly determined by the bond length change upon ionization, are...
Solid solutions based on the perovskite ferroelectrics Bi₀.₅Na₀.₅TiO₃ (BNT) and Bi₀.₅K₀.₅TiO₃ (BKT) might someday replace current Pb-based ferroelectric and piezoelectric devices. This is one goal of the Restrictions on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) guidelines seeking to limit Pb in consumer devices. Although the Bi-based ferroelectrics are well suited to the task...
The need for clean and renewable fuel such as hydrogen is driven by a growing worldwide population and increasing air pollution from fossil fuels. One of the major barriers for the use of hydrogen in automotive industry is the storage of hydrogen. Physisorption is the most promising storage technique due...
