Figure 1. A Forward Chemical Genetic Screen Identifies Human Gut Microbes That Activate GPCRs We isolated 144 unique human gut bacteria spanning five phyla, nine classes, eleven orders, and twenty families from 11 inflammatory bowel disease patients via high-throughput anaerobic culturomics and massivel...
NYM: Are you concerned about them leaving your property and foraging in areas with chemical/pesticide sprays? MIKE: It is a mild concern, about what the bees may come into contact with. We feel lucky to be Woodstock. There are no big agricultural operations within the bees forage area and...
You’re a chemical engineer. I remember when I was an undergrad, “chem E” was considered one of the quote-unquote “hardest” engineering disciplines. How is it that humanities or arts can inform, or connect with, science in a way th...
The sign on the factory wall at Rieter Automotive reads "Delight your customers. Lead the fight for profits. Enjoy your work". Judging by its massive transformation over the last two years, it's a fight it is well on it way to winning.Two years ago the unassuming West Midlands site was...
The vector ∇Vat a point gives the direction in which the scalar fieldV, having volt as its unit, most rapidly increases. The minus sign in equation (6) indicates that the electric field is oriented from an area with a high potential to an area with a low potential. Figure3also illust...
Rose [at the track]: Okay we are back at the track, mile number 2, it’s a beautiful sunny day. We did pass a sign that said drug free zone though so… technically in violation. Robert: Did you bring the container? Rose: No I didn’t. ...

This is to be expected from the lack of chemical affinity between the PA layer and Ca2+. In addition, the membranes were rinsed in water after each soaking step to remove the physisorbed on the selective layer. Ca2+ ions on any non-interacting surfaces. Hence no CaCO3 crystallites were ...
84 Note that the chemical ionization of VOCs in PTR-MS proceeds more swiftly; the proton-transfer reaction is exothermic as the proton affinity of H2O is much lower than that of most VOCs.86 Other precursor ions for chemical ionization of target compounds may include NO+ and O2+. Recently,...
The samples were tested by viral culture with reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunofluorescence assay (IFA) using MERS-CoV Spike antibody, and electron microscopy (EM). The presence of MERS-CoV was confirmed by RT-PCR of viral cultures of 4 of 7 air samples. In...
