The motility and vitality of the parasite were observed immediately after application of the treatment under light microscope and 5 min later then till time of death were noted according to the method carried by [39]. Fish and cultural conditions For the in-vivo assay, infected Nile tilapia (...
2 Most ion channels are not permanently open; rather, they can be selectively opened and closed in response to extracellular signals, allowing the cell to control the movements of ions across the membrane, thus serving as ‘smart’ gates that regulate the internal environment. In recent years, ...
With a confocal microscope, cellulose bundle orientation could be followed over time, providing the first direct proof of passive reorientation of cellulose bundles during cell elongation. Nevertheless, only the largest cellulose bundles could be visualized, as the resolution of conventional light ...
The transmembrane ionic current was recorded with a Keithley 6487 picoammeter (Keithley Instruments, Inc., Cleveland, OH, USA). A pair of Ag/AgCl electrodes was used to measure the resulting ionic current. The membrane was mounted between two halves of the conductance cell. Both halves of the...
phytochemicals, whereas an increase with 1 log cell forming unit (CFU)/g DW was observed after 21 days of storage. The obtained results are promising in the valorization of natural antioxidants in combination with lactic acid bacteria in order to develop multifunctional ingredients with value-added...
2.2. Cell Preparation For the Ni@CNOs electrode, the active material (Ni@CNOs), carbon black, and PVDF were mixed in the weight ratio of 8:1:1. Then, the slurry was coated on 9 μm-thick Cu foil and dried in an oven at 80 °C for 24 h. The performance of the Ni@CNOs was ...
1.25 MeV, under a rate of 1.44 kGy/h. 2.3. Film Characterizations Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM)—The HTP and W-HTP film morphology was analyzed by a FE-SEM microscope (JSM-7500F, JEOL, Tokyo, Japan) in secondary electron mode. 2 kV of acceleration voltage was ...
