Android Operating Sistem

 
Android is an open mobile operating system made by Google. Android operating system has been used in some handsets (phones) in Indonesia. In Indonesia alone Android operating system is relatively less familiar among us, this is probably due to lack of support information and phone that supports it. But look at the Android penetration is currently not possible the next time the operating system is a strong competitor for Symbian and Windows Mobile. Predicted in 2012, this Android phone market will reach 12%.
Well, for those of you who are interested in studying Android or want to share information and related technology, Google's operating system, you can open the site Android Indonesia, which is located at http://android-indonesia.com. Here you can follow the development of the Android technology are continuing. Among them is the updated information related to Indonesia such as Android market competition among vendors vying to launch a phone based on Android operating system until about the service or application-based handset this operating system. The information is presented in the format of the article and video.
In addition, you also can become a community member by first registering. That way you can exchange information related to this operating system both with fellow users or by administrators. In addition, you also can see the detail specifications of the handset / mobile phone based on Android that has been circulating in the market.
This site could become one of the reference and guide for those who are interested to learn more about the Google Android operating system made this.

Create Your Own Blog Theme with Artisteer 2

Artisteer is a software that allows us to design a theme (theme) your own blog. Theme created here can be used to WordPress, Blogspot, and others. This software is very useful for anyone who wants to have a blog with a theme that comes closest to your own taste. This software interface similar to Microsoft Office 2007 and quite easy to use. Unfortunately, this software is not free sad Create Your Own Blog Theme with Artisteer 2 
But for you who really want to try it (and do not mind to use the software for free free no tongue Create Your Own Blog Theme with Artisteer 2), I will give you the link below.

The mechanism of H1N1 Virus Infection

Swine influenza (Swine Influenza) H1N1 virus is suspected to result from mexico is already claimed many victims. The distribution is more expansive and already travel to all continents. Modern transportation equipment and the high mobilization of people between countries as well as intercontinental also accelerate the spread of this virus. How this virus can easily infect humans? Is not this virus comes from pigs? In the discussion this time the author will explain the biomolecular mechanisms of human H1N1 virus and its impact on human health.


Before discussing the mechanism of infection, the authors will explain genetics H1N1 virus. This virus has genetic material in the form of (-) ssRNA (single strand RNA negative). Genome will be transcribed into mRNA and copying to the positive strand polymerase with the aid of a single strand. The result of the coffee used for the synthesis of (-) ssRNA new. While the genome mRNA will be used for protein synthesis (Rantam, 2005).


The mechanism of the H1N1 virus that attacks the human respiratory system basically through several stages that make up the cycle, namely: 1) Attachment, 2) penetration, 3) endocytosis, 4) Release of genetic material, 5) Transcript, 6) assembly, and 7) Disposal

Tahapan perlekatan merupakan tahapan awal mula virus masuk kedalam sel. Tahapan ini melibatkan reseptor sel inang (Reseceptor Binding Site/RBS). Reseptor sel yang berperan dalam infeksi virus flu tersusun atas glikoprotein atau glikolipid yang mengandung gugus terminal sialyl-galactosyl [Neu5Ac(α 2,3)Gal] atau [Neu5Ac(α 2,6)Gal]. Kedua reseptor tersebut biasanya disebut α 2,3 asam sialat/sialic acid atau α 2,6 asam sialat/sialic acid (Thomson et al., 2006). Pada virus avian influenza (AI), haemaglutinin virus cenderung berikatan dengan α 2,3 asam sialat sedangkan virus flu manusia berikatan dengan α 2,6 asam sialat. Pada kasus flu burung, haemaglutinin virus AI terdapat kemungkinan perubahan akibat mutasi yang menyebabkan kompabilitas dengan reseptor α 2,6 asam sialat pada manusia. Sementara pada babi ditemukan dua jenis reseptor yaitu α 2,3 asam sialat dan α 2,6 asam sialat. Hal ini dapat menimbulkan adanya kemungkinan rearsosi genetik (mixing vesel) antara virus influenza antara unggas dengan virus asal manusia pada tubuh babi.


Setelah haemaglutinin virus H1N1 berikatan dengan RBS sel inang (hospes), maka virus akan masuk melalui fusi envelope virus dengan membran endosomal sel inang. Proses ini memerlukan bantuan protease sel inang untuk mengaktivasi prekusor hemaglutinin (HAo) menjadi fragmen 1 (HA1) dan fragmen 2 (HA2) yang dapat menyebabkan virus melepaskan ribonukleoproteinnya ke dalam sel inang, akibatnya akan terjadi replikasi di dalam sel inang.


Tahapan selanjutnya adalah pelepasan materi genetik yang kemudian diikuti dengan proses transkripsi menjadi RNAm (RNA messenger) yang siap untuk ditranslasi menjadi bagian-bagian tubuh virus. Tahapan ini membutuhkan mekanisme kaskade yang melibatkan protein kinase, yaitu ERK 1/2 (Extracellulear-signal Regulated Kinase 1 dan 2) melalui jalur Ras–Raf–MEK–ERK (Gambar 2). ERK ini berperan dalam tahap akhir replikasi virus, yaitu pada saat pengiriman ribonukleoprotein (RNP) yang telah direplikasi di nukleus sel inang ke sitosol pada saat fase perakitan. Bagian virus H1N1 yang mengaktivasi ERK adalah hemagglutinin (HA) yang terakumulasi di membran sel pada tahap perakitan. Hemagglutinin menempel pada Lipid Rafts dan kemudian mengaktivasi kaskade ERK melalui PKC (Protein Kinase C). Kondisi ini akan mempercepat pertumbuhan virus H1N1 melalui proses transkripsi gen.

After the assembly had the H1N1 virus, the virus will be released through the process penguncupan (budding), which in turn will infect other cells. 

Robot Fish to Detect Pollution

 
British scientists have developed a robotic fish are released into the sea in northern Spain to detect pollution. If the next year (2010, eds), The first experiment using five robotic fish in the northern Spanish port of Gijon is successful, the team expects robots of fish can be used in rivers, lakes and oceans around the world to detect pollution.


Carp-shaped robot, with a cost of £ 20,000 ($ 29,000), able to mimic the movements of fish and are equipped with chemical sensors to detect potentially harmful pollutants, such as leakage from the ship or underwater pipeline. They will send information back to shore by using Wi-Fi technology. Unlike previous robotic fish, these fish robot can navigate autonomously without human interaction.


Rory Doyle, senior scientists at the engineering firm BMT Group, which developed a robotic fish with scientists at the University of Essex, said there were good reasons to make fish-shaped robot, rather than a form similar to a conventional submarine. "By using the robotic fish, we create a design created by hundreds of millions of years by the remarkable evolution and energy efficient," he said. "Efficiency of robot fish is not necessary to ensure that pollution detection sensors to navigate under the sea to the environment at the end of the month." Fish robot has a length of 1.5 meters (nearly 5 feet), almost the size of seal.
