Hill numbers are a unified family of diversity indices that compensate for the disproportionate impact of rare taxa by weighting them based on abundance, making them appropriate for analysis of large datasets produced by amplicon sequencing (Vidal-Durà et al., 2018). The degree of weighting is ...
In the ovary, ROS are involved in the regulation of oocyte growth, meiosis, ovulation and other physiological processes [10]. During follicular growth, increased steroid production leads to the expression of cytochrome P450, thus resulting in ROS formation. Meanwhile, the increased secretion of estra...
THE SOLUBILITY OF LIME IN WATER AND THE SPECIFIC CONDUCTIVITIES OF ITS SATURATED SOLUTIONS The specific conductivities of saturated solutions of calcium hydroxide have been measured from 0° to 130 °C. Special precautions were taken to eliminate errors due to impurities. The degree of dissociation ...
The stabilization mechanism can be illustrated as follows: the dissociation of dispersant agents in water containing carboxyl and ammonium groups occurred. This produces a positive charge (ammonium group) and a negative charge (carboxyl group). The negative charge of the carboxyl group is absorbed on...
Copper transporting P-type (P1B-1-) ATPases are essential for cellular homeostasis. Nonetheless, the E1-E1P-E2P-E2 states mechanism of P1B-1-ATPases remains poorly understood. In particular, the role of the intrinsic metal binding domains (MBDs) is enigm
The relative influence of these anthropogenic sources is a function of land use type, degree of urbanization, hardness of water (due to use of salts during the softening process), presence of wastewater treatment plants, and ubiquity of septic systems in a watershed (Overbo et al., 2021). ...
When there is a rise in value for ̅ncnc̅ , there is also an increase in the complexity of the network. The value of n b should be decreased to 9.886 × 1022 cm−3 from its previous value of 10.23 × 1022 cm−3. The value of n b indicates the degree to which a ...
A strong interest in science led Ignarro to Columbia University where he studied chemistry and pharmacology and in 1962 received a bachelor's degree in pharmacy. Ignarro then attended the University of Minnesota where he received a Ph.D. in pharmacology. His university studies also concentrated in...
The most commonly used copper salt precursors such as Cu(II) nitrate trihydrate, Cu(II) chloride dehydrates and Cu(II) sulfate are known for their ecotoxicological towards the living cells17,18. The ecotoxicology is mainly due to the active redox of the Cu ions itself that eases the formation...
More positive DICas values indicate a greater degree of atmospheric CO2 invasion. At basin-scale, the preindustrial DICas of North Atlantic deep water (NADW) is ~50–80 µmol/kg higher than for Antarctic bottom water (AABW) and Antarctic intermediate water (AAIW). This difference ...
