Study of the $^{19}$F(p,$\alpha$)$^{16}$O reaction through the Trojan Horse Method and its astrophysical enviroment
… So, a new experimental study through the Trojan Horse Method (THM) is important because the method is particulary suited for the study of low-enegy resonances in the case of charged particle induced reactions. It is an experimental indirect technique which selects the quasi-free …

The Trojan Horse(s) of "Hello World" culture : the story of Sony PSP domestication through the eyes of the Homebrew users
Technology that is released to the public is often "locked down" or "tethered" ready fordomestication by the regular user in the way that the manufacturer believes that it will be used(Zittrain, 2007). However, when users such as the hacker users go against the view of themanufacturer and unlock …

Placental co-culture model reveals Listeria monocytogenes utilization of monocytes for vertical transmission
… used to observe L. monocytogenes use of the “Trojan horse” method for vertical transmission. Human monocyte THP-1 cells were exposed to L. monocytogenes (MOI 100) for one hour to ensure infection. The co-culture model was exposed to varying treatments including the L. monocytogenes-infected …

MOLECULAR TROJAN HORSES IN THE TREATMENT OF METACHROMATIC LEUKODYSTROPHY
… proteins using an ApoE fragment as a molecular Trojan horse fused to the full-length human ASA. These proteins were expressed in eukaryotic cells transduced with lentiviral expression vectors and have been assessed for in vitro enzymatic activity and kinetic properties. Although preliminary …

To know is to empower : Chagos institute of environmental humanities
… Chagos Institute of Environmental Humanities, a trojan horse with dual agency. While staging an apparent conformity to restrictions and regulations imposed by the UK-US alliance, the Institute quietly and resolutely supports an undercover project of decolonization and empowerment. Beyond physical …

Mostly-static decentralized information flow control
… many useful applications while still permitting Trojan horse applets to leak private information. This thesis describes the decentralized label model, a new model of information flow control that protects private data while allowing applications to share data. Unlike previous approaches to …

Structural studies of enzymes involved in antibiotic resistance and phosphonate degradation
… turned over to products. One such example is the Trojan horse tRNA synthetase inhibitor antibiotic microcin C7, which mimics the aminoacyl adenylate intermediate of the tRNA synthetase enzyme by replacing the high energy phosphodiester bond of the enzyme intermediate with a stable …

HARLEM IN SHAKESPEARE AND SHAKESPEARE IN HARLEM: THE SONNETS OF CLAUDE MCKAY, COUNTEE CULLEN, LANGSTON HUGHES, AND GWENDOLYN BROOKS
… Perhaps most importantly, the sonnet can be a Trojan horse, a genteel container that conceals a potentially subversive message. This study is constructed around related lines of questioning: First, why did African American poets, in an era usually associated with free verse, choose to adopt a …

Siderophore-Based Drug Repurposing of Platinum Anticancer Agents as Targeted Antibiotics and Investigation of Pt-Induced DNA Damage in Gram-Negative Bacteria
… for selective and efficient drug delivery as a “Trojan-horse” strategy. This thesis explores the application of a SAC strategy based on enterobactin (Ent), a native triscatecholate siderophore, to repurpose platinum (Pt) anticancer agents as targeted antibiotics against Gram-negative bacteria, …

Human Cytomegalovirus and the Neutrophil
… evade host defences and use the neutrophil as a “Trojan horse” for replication and dissemination. In this context, enhanced neutrophil survival may promote infection. This work describes a profound neutrophil survival phenotype elicited by contact with live or UV-inactivated HCMV, in the absence …

Mechanistic studies on the asymmetry amplifying, autocatalytic Soai reaction
… a pyridine-assisted cube-escape. Kinetics with a Trojan-horse substrate allowed the interrogation of the crucial alkyl-transfer step in the catalytic pathway. Augmented by computational studies, this approach led to the identification of the floor-to-floor transition model, wherein a two point …
