Neural circuits for solving the cocktail party problem in mouse auditory cortex
… different spatial sources, also known as the "cocktail party effect". A pre-study recorded cortical responses in songbirds and found that neurons are broadly tuned to sound location when only one sound is present; when a competing stimulus is introduced, neurons sharpen their spatial tuning. …

Studies on the synergic activity of a three-drug cocktail active against cisplatin-resistant human leukemia and carcinoma cells
… cancer cell models. The three-drug cocktail was the most potent with a markedly higher cytotoxicity against leukemic lymphocytes than against ex vivo healthy proliferating lymphocytes. An ESI-MS study of CDDP-C0 mixed combination showed the formation of copper-platinum adducts which, …

High-Yield Cellulosic Hydrogen Production by Cell-Free Synthetic Cascade Enzymes: Minimal Bacterial Cellulase Cocktail and Thermostable Polyphosphate Glucokinase
… performance of reconstituted cellulase cocktail strongly depended on experimental conditions. Thermobifida fusca YX was hypothesized to have a thermophilic polyphosphate glucokinase. T. fusca YX ORF Tfu_1811 encoding a putative PPGK was cloned and the recombinant protein fused with a …

Green synthesis and characterization of gold nanoparticles from capparis sepiaria-tabernaemontana elegans cocktail and investigation of their biological effects in vitro.
Wounds have a significant impact on the global healthcare system, adding heavy load on the economy and society. therefore, there is an urgent need to develop treatments that can facilitate rapid wound healing. to make matters worse wound infection by antimicrobial-resistant bacteria may result in …

Soft rot Enterobacteriaceae-molecular detection and biocontrol under in vitro and in vivo conditions
… in Northern Ireland, and formulate a phage-based cocktail which would be tested in vitro and in vivo in planta. Twenty bacteriophages were isolated and characterised using transmission electron microscopy and tested for their activity against P. atrosepticum and P. carotovorum. Isolated …

Biologically-inspired auditory artificial intelligence for speech recognition in multi-talker environments
… a difficult computational problem known as the cocktail party problem. Motivated by auditory processing in the human brain, this thesis developed a neural network to isolate the speech of a single talker given binaural input containing a target talker and multiple distractors. In this research …

Using redundancy to improve security and testing
… detect anomaly behaviors. In specific, we build Cocktail, which uses replicated execution of redundant web browsers to improve browser security. Cocktail mirrors inputs to each replica and votes on browser states and outputs to detect potential attacks, while continuing to run. The net effect of …

Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth in acute and persistent infantile diarrhoea
… the carbohydrate-free group are discussed. BOWEL COCKTAIL STUDY: Objective: Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth has been proposed as a cause of progression of acute diarrhoeal episodes to persistence. The "bowel cocktail", a combination of oral gentamicin and cholestyramine, has been shown to be …

The Use of Combinations of Chemosensitisers to Reverse Chloroquine Resistance in Mice infected with Malaria
… of the malaria parasite in order to develop a cocktail treatment of three compounds which could reverse resistance additively or synergistically when used at low doses with chloroquine. This would bypass any toxicity issues which might arise from the use of a high dose of a single agent. Six of …
