… 12), we estimate the spin Seebeck coefficient for Ni 81 Fe 19 to be S S = -2 nV K -1 at 300
K, which is different from the conventional Seebeck coefficient of -20 μV K -1 measured for the …

… /Pt sample is uniformly heated to 320 K, indicating that an in-plane temperature gradient is
necessary for the observed voltage generation (note that 320 K is much lower than the Curie …

We have developed an assay for the detection of Norwalk-like viruses (NLVs) based on
reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) that is highly sensitive to a broad range of NLVs. We …

There is growing evidence that oxidative stress and mitochondrial respiratory failure with
attendant decrease in energy output are implicated in nigral neuronal death in Parkinson …

Acrolein (CH 2 =CH—CHO) is known as a ubiquitous pollutant in the environment. Here we
show that this notorious aldehyde is not just a pollutant, but also a lipid peroxidation product …

… adducts were demonstrated to account for <10% of the total protein carbonyl groups
associated with the modified proteins that accumulate in liver hepatocytes of old rats (Uchida and …

… The acrolein analogue, crotonaldehyde, also generates the FDP-like adduct as the major
product upon reaction with lysine (Uchida et al., unpublished observation), suggesting that the …

We propose a longitudinal spin-Seebeck effect (SSE), in which a magnon-induced spin
current is injected parallel to a temperature gradient from a ferromagnet into an attached …

… K. Uchida et al., Nature London 455, 778 2008 . We explain this effect by spin pumping at
the contact that is proportional to the spin-mixing conductance of the interface, the inverse of a …

Background IgG4-sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC) patients have an increased level of serum
IgG4, dense infiltration of IgG4-positive plasma cells with extensive fibrosis in the bile duct …
