The effects of urban vehicle traffic on heavy metal contamination in road sweeping waste and bottom sediments of retention tanks
PublicationDiffuse pollution formed during a surface runoff on paved surfaces is a source of heavy metals (HMs) of various origin. This research study indicates the connection between bottom sediments of retention tanks located on urban streams and road sweeping wastes (RSW) that migrate during surface runoff to the stormwater drainage systems with discharge to the retention tanks. Moreover, we test the primary sources of HMs in RSW by analysing...

General solution of quantum mechanical equations of motion with time-dependent Hamiltonians: A Lie algebraic approach
PublicationThe unitary operators U(t), describing the quantum time evolution of systems with a time-dependent Hamiltonian, can be constructed in an explicit manner using the method of time-dependent invariants. We clarify the role of Lie-algebraic techniques in this context and elaborate the theory for SU(2) and SU(1,1). In these cases we give explicit formulae for obtaining general solutions from special ones. We show that the constructions...

ABC transporters Cdr1p, Cdr2p and Cdr3p of a human pathogen Candida albicans are general phospholipid translocators
PublicationFluoryzujące analogi fosfolipidów NBD-PE, NBD-PC i NBD-PS zostały wykorzystane w celu wykazania, że białko Cdr1p i jego inne homologi, Cdr2p i Cdr3p, należące do grupy białek zawierających tzw. kasetę wiążącą ATP (ABC), zachowują się jak ogólne przenośniki lipidów. Wyniki badań pokazują, że transportery typu ABC występujące w C. albicans są przenośnikami fosfolipidów i aktywność ta może być jedna z fizjologicznych funkcji białek.

General, Mild, and Metal-Free Functionalization of Indole and Its Derivatives Through Direct C3-Selenylation
PublicationA very mild method for the introduction of functionalized alkylselenyl group at C-3 position of the indole ring was developed. The proposed procedure consists of an electrophilic substitution of indole and its derivatives with bis(O,O-diisopropoxyphosphorothioyl) diselenide and subsequent cleavage of the P–Se bond with tetrabutylammonium fluoride in the presence of various electrophilic reagents. This method can be successfully...

Adapting a General Tool to Monitoring Multi-Agent Systems Through Virtual Host Layer Extenstion
PublicationNagios is a free software for IT infrastructure monitoring. Out-of-the-box it is not suited for monitoring multi-agent systems, because agents may dynamically join and leave the system or change roles. But Nagios' flexible configuration makes extensions possible. This paper presents and verifies Nagios configuration and extensions for monitoring multi-agent systems.
