Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It was revealed that luteoskyrin has a high affinity to mitochondria and cell debris of mouse liver cells, which may be responsible for the mitochondrial impairment and the age and sex differences in the susceptibility of mice to this mycotoxin.

TL;DR: The effectiveness of anomers of sugars and glycosides for hamster taste receptors was examined by recording responses in the whole nerve or single fibers of the chorda tympani and α-Anomers of d -glucose and d -galactose were less effective than their β-anomers while the reverse was true for the anomers for d -methylglucoside and d-methylgalactoside.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Minkowski-p metric was proposed to measure the similarity of the evaluation schemes of the other person's evaluation scheme to their own schemes, where the similarity is defined as the similarity between the schemes represented by the utility functions.
Abstract: It was proposed that people could evaluate the other person’s evaluation scheme in terms of the similarity (or dissimilarity) of the other person’s evaluation scheme to their own schemes. The metric for the dissimilarity of evaluation schemes was proposed to be the Minkowski-p metric for the utilities evaluated under different schemes. This model provides a basis for allocating importance to utility functions, where importance is to be interpreted as the similarity of the integrated scheme to the schemes represented by the utility functions. An experiment was done to investigate whether people’s intuitive judgments for the dissimilarity of evaluation schemes could be described by the Minkowski-p) metric; the results generally supported the model and also suggested that the metric would be the “city-block” metric, i.e., p-1 in the Minkowski-p metric.

TL;DR: In this paper, a mass spectrometric system equipped with the multicollectors and peak selectors is investigated, which makes a rapid wide mass range scanning by the rapid voltage scanning of shorter range and to make a simultaneous recording of multi-components with fast response through the multi-channel peak selectsors.
Abstract: A mass spectrometric system equipped with the multi-collectors and peak selectors is investigated. The principal features of this method are to make a rapid wide mass range scanning by the rapid voltage scanning of shorter range and to make a simultaneous recording of multi-components with fast response through the multi-channel peak selectors. The graphic representation of ion optics is presented for determining the design parameters. Practical applications are given on the respiratory gas analysis. Several technical key points such as determining the accurate collector position, the response of the system, and the characteristics of the gate circuit which is the central part of the peak selector, are discussed with the mind of applying this system to the respiratory gas analysis.
