Abstract:
... In this paper, we studied the structure, expression and function of black carp insulin gene. The complete Mylopharyngodon piceus insulin (Mp-Ins) gene is 1,965 bp long and includes a 1,499 bp 5ʹ-untranslated region (UTR), a 139 bp 3′-UTR with a poly(A) tail, and an open reading frame (ORF) of 327 bp. The predicted molecular weight of the recombinant Mp-Ins(rMp-Ins) protein is 11.87 kDa. The mRNA e ...

Abstract:
... Designing photothermal transducing agents (PTAs) with enhanced photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) holds essential importance for photothermal tumor eradication applications. Currently, it is an effective way to improve the photothermal efficiency by designing the energy level transition leading to the enhancement of UV absorption. To address the challenge, we develop novel Prussian blue@poly ...

Abstract:
... One hypothesis for the higher rate of campylobacteriosis in New Zealand (NZ) is that secondary poultry processing practices increase chicken contamination. Chicken marination with needle injection may introduce pathogenic bacteria from the surface deep into the interior muscle tissue. The survival of Campylobacter in/on multi-needle injected chicken products was performed at the processing plant a ...
