For example, the principal N species in SLW lake water is NH4+ 3, which is produced by crushing. Additionally, the lake waters have an excess of F− relative to seawater3 and comminution of sediments produced high F−:Cl− ratios, (Table 3), thus this process may be the source ...
antioxidant, and immunomodulatory effects [46]. For example, the well-studied bitter melon MAP30 is a glycoprotein with a relative molecular mass of 30 kD, which specifically induces apoptosis in tumour cells, inhibits cancer cell proliferation, and prevents...
microtwins are formed, they can lead to additional strengthening. In addition, an increase in the degree of plastic deformation in austenitic steels is accompanied by an increase in the stress level and a change in the deformation mechanism from slip to twinning, which can become the main deform...
CRP is an acute phase protein of the pentraxin family formed in the liver, as a marker of general or post-operative infectious diseases primarily for bacterial infections5, acute myocardial infarction, and other diseases6. In healthy people, the concentration of CRP in serum is below 10 mg/L...
The conventional methods include (1) the dip method, in which the substrate is simply immersed in the polymer or colloid solution with intermediate rinsing. This is followed by (2) the spin method and (3) the spray method, which result in faster layer deposition. In the spin method, the ...
All samples come from the Antrim Shale, a low-maturity biogenic gas shale in the Michigan Basin, USA. This study aims to try to answer the following questions: 1) Does low-pressure CO2 adsorption behavior of shales exhibit hysteresis? 2) What is the cause of the CO2 hysteresis in the ...
“colloid” to refer to the structure of the protoplasm, probably because it seemed more precise in describing the viscous jelly-like interior of the cell. The open question then was to determine if the surface of the cell was made up of the same substance as the rest of the protoplasm. ...
Fractal geometry estimates have proven useful in studying the growth strategies of fungi in response to different environments on soil or on agar substrates, but their use in mycelia grown submerged is still rare. In the present study, the effects of cer
Figure 1. Assessment of HeLa cell viability via MTT assay following CHCa (A) and HAc (B) treatment. Two independent experiments were carried out, each performed in triplicate. One-way ANOVA was used to compare different concentrations of CHCa and HAc with control group (0 mg/mL or mM, res...
Orson Welles’ character Harry Lime seems like the kind of guy who would have anépinettierfollowing him around Vienna to play whenever he got tired or bored. And as his lover Anna (played by Alida Valli) said, “He never grew up. The world grew up around him”. ...
