Sol–gels are chemically inert, stable and homogeneous and can be designed to act as a reservoir for releasing antimicrobial agents over extended time periods. In the present study, silver nitrate (AgN) and a series of silver coumarin complexes based on coumarin-3-carboxylatosilver (AgC) and it is 6, 7 and 8 hydroxylated analogues...

...It is the expectation of the public that, agencies and Ministers of the Crown act fairly, consistently and transparently in making administrative decision. It is in line with these objectives that the public can obtain access to documents under Freedom of Information from various agencies. Smith has the option to apply for internal review but since his access decision was made by the Attorney General personally he has no recourse to internal review. Other than that he would have 30 days to apply for an internal review and must notify the applicant within 30 days of receiving the application and it always better and quicker to apply for internal review before resorting to external review. Anecdotal evidence suggests that internal review can be quick, cheap and most likely can lead to a reversal of a decision. You can appeal to your federal member of parliament in your constituency who may have contact with the Attorney General for assistance in this matter. Your MP would have a considerable influence if he and the Attorney General are in the same party and can possibly lobby on your behalf. This avenue should be last after judicial and merit reviews are finalised. Another subtle way is to appear or ring on a talk-on back radio to publicise your case to get into the ears and attention of the relevant authorities. Mr Smith can apply to the Information Commissioner for a reviewable decision under section 54L of the FOI Act. He has 60 days after decision...

...Chemical Biology, 14, 412-420. Question 3c (150 words) Cancer cells overexpress Hsp90 to trigger a heat shock response to develop cancer e.g. melanoma. Hsp90 is an ideal drug target for cancer therapy. It controls ‘client protein’ folding, transforming them into compact, active conformations to participate in oncogenic signalling pathways. 17-AAG is a particular Hsp90 inhibitor. The 17-AAG hydroquinone is a derivative of the natural product geldanamycin. 17-AAG blocks Hsp90 to treat cancer cells by simultaneously degrading client proteins which participate in multiple pathways that lead to cancer development. Figure (2) summarises a 3D molecular structure of how Hsp90 is complexed to a 17-AAG derivative. 17-AAG compound binds to the N-terminal Hsp90 domain at the ATP-binding region. 17-AAG forms hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions with Hsp90. The hydroquinone forms hydrogen bonds with the Hsp90 amino-acid residues: Asp54 and Lys112. The 17-AAG C-1 amide carbonyl can form a hydrogen bond with the backbone nitrogen of Phe138 (Hsp90 amino-acid). Reference • Porter, J. R., Fritz, C. C. & Depew, K. M.

The Hon. Michael Kirby AC CMG RMIT UNIVERSITY, MELBOURNE SCHOOL OF ACCOUNTING AND LAW SYMPOSIUM ON STATUTORY INTERPRETATION CHAPTER HOUSE, ST. PAUL’S CATHEDRAL 13 AUGUST 2009 STATUTORY INTERPRETATION: THE MEANING OF MEANING The Hon. Michael Kirby AC CMG THE MAIN TASK OF MODERN LAWYERS Although we still describe ours as a common law system (to distinguish it from the countries of the civil law tradition), the label is now looking somewhat dubious. The distinctive feature of contemporary Australian law derives from the overwhelming importance of the laws made by or under parliament. I refer to statutes, regulations, by-laws, executive instruments, rules of court and all the other ways in which the written law now manifests itself. In my youth, the statutory law of the State of New South Wales was collected in twelve manageable volumes, supplemented by a threevolume index1. These books included many important statutes commencing in the colonial period, some of which, like the Crimes Act 1900 (NSW), still apply today.

...Preface Within my bachelor education in industrial and organizational psychology at the University of Twente, I conducted this research and immersed myself into relevant scientific literature to build a theoretic basis for my topic, the impact of organizational strategy and climate on strategic employee behaviours. This paper presents the final assignment of the bachelor degree in psychology and is solely written by the author. The introduction part consists mainly of a screening and elaboration on prior scholar’s work. Data from five companies were gathered collectively with other students. At this place my thanks go especially to the employees of the company Nedap N.V. for participating in my research. Nedap inspired my a lot. Furthermore my thanks go to my fellow students for their efforts to find companies to participate. Abstract This paper investigates which configurations of organizational climate and organisational strategy lead to strategic employee behaviour which is crucial for organizations to reach their goals. Based on literature research and empirical research in five companies in the technical sector in the area around Enschede (n = 160), this paper attempts to find out if strategic employee behaviour is related to the fit between the organizational strategy as perceived by all employees and the organizational climate within an organisation. The results show that fit is negatively related to innovative work behaviour. Customer oriented behaviour; knowledge sharing...
