Abstract: This invention relates to methods of administering compounds containing selenium, selenocysteine, or a selenocysteine peptide to treat, for example, conditions associated with selenium deficiency, or ferroptoptic, parthanototic, and endoplasmic reticulum stress, and/or cancer. The methods of treatment may activate or inhibit (via TFAP2C and Sp1 proteins) the adaptive homeostatic response of the selenome. The compounds may contain a targeting sequence that causes them to be delivered to specific organs and/or tissues. The compounds may be administered, for example, orally, intranasally, intravenously, or by a minimally invasive catheter or BrainPath.

Abstract: A method and composition can provide fermented plant-origin material. The method can comprise several steps. A first step comprises hydrolyzing a plant-origin material to provide a hydrolyzed plant-origin material. A second step comprises providing a fermentation starter material comprising the hydrolyzed plant-origin material. A third step comprises fermenting the fermentation starter material to provide a fermented plant-origin material. Various compositions comprising a fermented plant-origin material are possible. In some embodiments, the fermented plant-origin material comprises a fermentation product produced by fermenting fermentation starter material, and the fermentation starter material comprises hydrolyzed plant-origin material. Even when the plant-origin material is hydrolyzed or hydrolyzed and fermented, certain desirable properties of the plant-origin material, for example, health benefits, nutrients, whole grain status, fiber content, or beta-glucan content, can be maintained.

Abstract: A refresh command is communicated to a memory device to initiate an interruptible refresh which contains multiple segment refreshes separated by interrupt boundaries. A command is communicated to the memory device before execution of a segment refresh and the segment refresh is delayed at an interrupt boundary. Alternatively, a first number of commands in a queue is determined. A first number of segment refreshes to execute is determined based on the first number of commands. The first number of segment refreshes to execute is communicated to the memory device to cause execution of the first number of segment refreshes. A second number of commands in the queue is determined. A second number of segment refreshes to execute is determined based on the second number of commands. The second number of segment refreshes to execute is communicated to the memory device to cause execution of the second number of segment refreshes.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a phosphate framework electrode material for sodium ion battery and a method for synthesizing such electrode material. A surfactant and precursors including a sodium precursor, a phosphate precursor, a transition metal precursor are dissolved in a solvent and stirred for sufficient mixing and reaction. The precursors are reacted to yield a precipitate of particles of NaxAbMy(PO4)zXn compound and with the surfactant attached to the particles. The solvent is then removed and the remaining precipitate is sintered to crystallize the particles. During sintering, the surfactant is decomposed to form a carbon network between the crystallized particles and the crystallized particles and the carbon matrix are integrated to form the electrode material.

Abstract: Use of care areas in scanning electron microscopes or other review tools can provide improved sensitivity and throughput. A care area is received at a controller of a scanning electron microscope from, for example, an inspector tool. The inspector tool may be a broad band plasma tool. The care area is applied to a field of view of a scanning electron microscope image to identify at least one area of interest. Defects are detected only within the area of interest using the scanning electron microscope. The care areas can be design-based or some other type of care area. Use of care areas in SEM tools can provide improved sensitivity and throughput.
