Microalgae are a diverse group of unicellular prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms that are widespread in nature, and can be used for mitigating hypoxia.15 Microalgae are approximately 2–10 μm in size and are composed of lipids, proteins, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates. Unlike many other ...
To fix with organic solvents, use ice-cold methanol, ethanol, or a 1:1 mix of ethanol and methanol to cover the cells on your coverslips. Once covered, incubate your cells in the freezer (-20°C) for 5 to 7 minutes. Do not worry about keeping your cells sterile at this point—you ...
A closer look has uncovered various reasons for the spread of community transfer of COVID-19 in these countries, such as frequent international travels as well as the late and casual implementation of social distancing [21,26]. The implementation of lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic has ...

Caloric intake and diet composition have large and lasting effects on cognition and emotion, especially during critical periods in development, but the neural mechanisms for these effects are not well understood. A clear understanding of the cognitive–emotional processes underpinning desires to over-...
• Substances that are made within the body but are excreted to the skin surface, such as the α-hydroxy acids, lactic acid and butyric acid, that are naturally present in eccrine sweat; and acidic lipids such as cholesterol sulfate and free fatty aci...
lipids, such as triacylglycerols (TAGs), wax esters (WEs), and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), derived from the lipid-rich biomass can directly be transesterified to fatty acid alkyl esters (biodiesel)5, whereby PHA also represents a suitable precursor for bioplastics6. In general terms, ...
DOPC lipid vesicles were prepared using the extrusion method, as previously described [29]. First, DOPC lipids were dried with nitrogen gas in a glass vial to form a lipid film on the sidewall. Then, the glass vial was placed overnight in a desiccator to evaporate residual chloroform. Next...
