Abstract: The present invention includes a composition and method for decreasing Bacillus anthracis virulence or toxicity comprising: at least one inhibitor that decreases an expression of one or more host genes selected from G6pc, Rgs1, Fosl2, Hcar2, Cxcl2 and Cxcl3, or Serpine1 (PAI-1).

Abstract: A system and method provide application assistance with a mobile device including running an application on a computer system. A challenging application state of the application is detected. An assistance for the challenging application state may be determined wherein the assistance includes display of one or more assistance frames on the mobile device. Information regarding the determined one or more assistance frames is sent to the mobile device.

Abstract: Feature discovery includes determining what a user is doing or trying to do with respect to a computer platform from situational awareness information relating to the user's use of the platform. Feature discovery logic is applied to the situational awareness information and personalized user information to determine (a) when to present information to the user regarding a platform feature or features relevant to what the user is doing or trying to do, (b) what information to present to the user regarding the feature(s), and (c) how to best present the information to the user with a user interface. After the user interface presents the information regarding the platform feature(s) the feature discovery logic, personalized user information, or situational awareness information are updated according to the user's response to presentation of the information.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an application of a titanium carbide/porous carbon composite in electrochemical treatment of uranium-containing wastewater, and belongs to the technical field of wastewater treatment. The present disclosure provides the application of the titanium carbide/porous carbon composite in electrochemical treatment of uranium-containing wastewater. Titanium carbide (TiC) is a typical transition metal carbide and has good conductivity and excellent chemical stability; compared with a titanium dioxide/carbon nanomaterial, the titanium carbide/porous carbon composite has a rich pore structure that provides a large number of activated adsorption sites for adsorption of metal ions during electro-adsorption, so that the electro-adsorption efficiency can be substantially improved, and a better electro-adsorption effect is obtained.
