Examples from Representative Publications

The structures shown in Figure 3.5 can give rise to 32, 2,048, and 512 different stereoisomers, respectively, and do not accurately represent the chemical names displayed below. It is very common that the representation of stereochemistry for both amino acids and steroids is not reported in publications. Caution must be used with the generation of the N2S engine structure dictionary from representations that omit stereo configurations, for example, from nonstereo SMILES notation. 

We have been exploring the synthesis of composite materials by employing vanadylsulfate (V0/S04)-based motifs in combination with simple organic ligands. This article describes some of the progress we made in this direction. The discussion is limited to few representative examples from our lab. A more detailed review of the work will appear in a future publication. 

A brief description of the federal legislative and regulatory processes may be helpful. Laws are a product of legislative activity. Legislation is usually proposed by senators and representatives to achieve a desired result, for example, improved employee safety or environmental protection. Proposed laws are often known by their Senate or House file numbers, for example, S.xxx or H.R.xxx. Copies of proposed laws can be obtained, even at this early stage in the process, by requesting them from local offices of House or Senate members. Sponsors of proposed legislation are open to comment from the public. Once a law is passed, it is known by its Public Law number, for example, P.L. 94-580, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). It is published in the United States Code and is referenced by volume and chapter number 42 USC 6901 et seq. is the citation for RCRA. 

People with disabilities (PD) represent about 15% of the world population, or one billion people (WHO, 2011). While in Brazil this figure is 23.9% of the population, i.e. there are 45.6 million PDs in Brazil (IBGE, 2011). The inclusion of this population in the social-labor environment has been discussed and encouraged in many countries through various laws, for example from quotas set for the employment of people with disabilities. In Brazil, laws establish a quota of 20% for public sector enterprises and 2% to 5% for private companies with over 100 employees.
