Abstract: The accumulation of abnormal proteins in neurodegenerative disorders is considered to induce oxidative stress and lead to cell death. Thus suppression of abnormal protein aggregation and reducing oxidative stress or reactive oxygen species (ROS) are expected to inhibit a wide range of harmful downstream events, providing an observation for identifying the potential prevention and treatment of neurodegenerative disorders comprising spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA), Alzheimer's disease (AD) or Parkinson's disease (PD). In the present invention, there are several cell and animal experiment models for SCA, AD and PD established, and NiSOD-like compounds were applied to these experiment models. The results have demonstrated how NiSOD-like compounds are likely to work in suppressing abnormal protein aggregation, recovering cell viability, increasing mature neuron number and neurite outgrowth length and protecting dopaminergic cells by reducing oxidative stress or reactive oxygen species in brain tissues.

Abstract: A method of a preparing double-layer antimicrobial coating comprises: placing a plastic substrate into a PVD vacuum equipment for a vacuum process; rinsing and activating the substrate when the vacuum level reaches 10?2; coating a metal film onto the activated substrate by the vacuum process; spraying an antimicrobial intermediate coating onto the metal film; and then coating an antimicrobial metal film by PVD to obtain a double-layer antimicrobial layer. The coating has two antimicrobial layers, and includes bores because the density of the coated film layer produced by PVD is low, so that the antimicrobial agent of the antimicrobial intermediate coating can pass through the bores and move to the surface of the coating and the surface of the antimicrobial coating, so as to kill the bacteria or suppress their grown. The method is very suitable for the sanitary, electronics, electrical appliances and the automobile industry.

Abstract: An electrostatic transfer control method that avoids undesired retransfer effects. A printing device develops and transfers several control patches. The patches are transferred at different electrostatic set points and a control strategy is utilized involving one or more density sensors to measure the transferred toner patches whereby the obtained density information can be used to compute the optimal value of electrostatic transfer bias. Print operators can adjust the bias value based on preferences for predetermined standards.
