Abstract:
The present invention is directed towards cleaning composition and/or formulations of commercial cleaning products containing beneficial metallocarbene activators for peroxygen species. The cleaning compositions and/or formulations include a bleaching component comprising a peroxy compound and one or more activators present in an effective amount to activate the peroxy compound to accomplish bleaching or cleaning or oxidation. The activator is a metallocarbene of the general structure (XX′C)yMLn′ where M represents a metal center, C represents the carbene carbon bound to the metal center, X and X′ may be the same or different and may furthermore be part of a cyclic structure, Ln′ represents one or more other ligands which may or may not include one or more metal centers, and where y greater than equal to I.
Abstract:
A novel glycosyl hydrolase with activities of beta-xylosidase and beta-glucosidase is provided. Said glycosyl hydrolase can convert 7-xylosyltaxane compounds to 7-hydroxyltaxane compounds.
Abstract:
A method and a device for file transfer protocol (FTP) deadlock detection and self recovery are provided by the disclosure in order to solve the sudden deadlock problem in the FTP upload operation. The method includes: if a daemon determines that a deadlock occurs in an FTP upload task by a heartbeat detection mechanism, the socket resources used by the FTP upload operation is recorded at the storage location in a socket resource cycle queue, and an FTP upload task end process is started; determining whether the socket resource cycle queue is full, if it is not full, the socket resource information occupied by the current deadlock is put into the socket resource cycle queue, otherwise, the earliest socket resources in the socket resource cycle queue are released, and the socket resource information occupied by the current deadlock is put into the socket resource cycle queue.
Abstract:
Water-based cutting fluids for use with diamond wiresaws that are used for cutting or otherwise treating hard brittle materials, e.g., silicon ingots, comprise: A. Water-soluble, polymeric dispersing agent, typically a polycarboxylate; B. Optionally wetting agent; C. Optionally defoamer; B. Optionally corrosion inhibitor; E. Optionally chelant; F. Optionally biocide; and G. Water. Typically water comprises at least 50 weight percent of the fluid, and the polycarboxylate is grafted with a polyalkylene glycol, e.g., polyethylene glycol.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods of treating heat shock factor 1 (HSF1)-related diseases such as cancer and viral diseases, using a therapeutically effective amount of a RNAi agent to HSF.
Abstract:
A protecting apparatus is provided for protecting a chip that is mounted on a subminiature circuit board. The protecting apparatus includes a supporting seat for mounting the subminiature circuit board thereon, and a protective cover for receiving the subminiature circuit board and the supporting seat therein. The supporting seat includes a locking element. The protective cover includes a connecting element corresponding to the locking element. The supporting seat is fixed in the protective cover via the locking element engaging with the connecting element.
Abstract:
A portable computer includes a base unit (70), and a display unit (10) pivotally connected to the base unit for movement between a closed position and an open position. A pair of hooks (11) is arranged on the display unit, each hook including a latching portion (113). A pair of catches (571) is arranged on the base unit and movable with respect to the hooks, each catch including a free end which snappingly engages the latching portion of a corresponding hook to attach the display unit to the base unit at the closed position. The latching portion of each hook defines an arcuate surface (574) along which each hook drives a corresponding catch to disengage from each other during movement of the display unit from a closed position to an open position.
Abstract:
A noise filter for a video processing system includes a block selector, a cost calculator, a cost table, a cost comparator, and a coefficient filter. The block selector is coupled to receive data from the quantization unit and selects blocks for additional filtering. The selected blocks are provided to the cost calculator determines a cost for each of the coefficients in the block using the cost table and the costs are summed. The cost comparator compares the total to a threshold, and filters the coefficients using the coefficient filter if the total is greater a preset threshold. The noise filter to the VLC unit then outputs the filter data.
Abstract:
An aqueous liquid laundry detergent composition comprising an alkoxylated carboxylic acid surfcatant and a free radical scavenger in the mole ratio of from about 500:1 to about 20:1. The composition substantially prevents the degradation of the alkoxylated ester surfactant upon storage and is also color-stable.
Abstract:
Aqueous laundry detergent compositions comprising a solubilized ethoxylated fatty acid diester as a detergency booster and/or a defoamer. Preferred compositions include a nonionic surfactant, preferably ethoxylated fatty acid monoester, as at least part of the surfactant in the composition, and also functioning as the solibilizer for the ethoxylated fatty acid diester.
