Abstract:
... Viruses transmitted by water have raised considerable concerns for public health. A novel memory photocatalyst of g-C₃N₄/WO₃/biochar was successfully developed for effective inactivation of human adenoviruses (HAdVs) in water, in which WO₃ as an electron-storage reservoir and biochar as an electron shuttle is employed to synergistically improve photocatalytic activity of g-C₃N₄. The tertiary compo ...
... The exocyst complex is an important regulator of intracellular trafficking and tethers secretory vesicles to the plasma membrane. Understanding of its role in neuron outgrowth remains incomplete, and previous studies have come to different conclusions about its importance for axon and dendrite growth, particularly in vivo. To investigate exocyst function in vivo we used Drosophila sensory neurons ...
regrowth, etc ; bacteriophages; filtration; polymers; water quality; Show all 5 Subjects
Abstract:
... Gravity-driven membrane (GDM) filtration is currently limited by the relatively low permeate flux and poor water quality. This study was aimed to investigate the effects of prechlorination (3 and 5 mgCl₂/L) on the permeate flux and water quality in GDM filtration by analyzing the compositions and morphologies of the fouling layer and by evaluating virus removal and trihalomethane (THM) formation f ...

Abstract:
... The contribution of seasonality in species communities to elevational diversity of tropical insects remains poorly understood. We here assessed seasonal patterns and drivers of bee diversity in the Eastern Afromontane Biodiversity Hotspot, Kenya, to understand the contribution of seasonality to elevational biodiversity patterns. Bee species and plant species visited by bees were recorded on 50 stu ...

Abstract:
... The morphology of nanomaterials plays a critical role in their physicochemical properties, and a precise modulation of the morphology is vitally important. As a promising capping agent, DNA has been used for directing the transition of metal nanoparticle seeds into different morphologies with enhanced properties, which has received extensive attention in biosensing. This paper reviews the research ...

Abstract:
... The prevalence of antibiotic resistance, as well as microplastics (MPs) as vectors for antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) has attracting growing attention. However, the fate of ARB/ARGs on MPs treated by chlorination and Fenton oxidation were poorly understood. Herein, the removal and regrowth of ARGs/ARB on MPs and in MPs-surrounding landfill leachate (an i ...

Abstract:
... The two most commonly adopted strategies, rechlorination (addition of chlorine) and rechloramination (addition of chlorine and ammonia), to recover and stabilise chloramine from nitrification were comprehensively evaluated in laboratory- and full-scale systems. Laboratory-scale batch experiments were conducted in a nitrifying sample (~0.05 mg-N/L). In the full-scale service reservoir, repeated rec ...
regrowth, etc ; carbohydrate content; carbon; ecology; nutrient availability; plant height; Show all 6 Subjects
Abstract:
... Perennial herbaceous plants in seasonal temperate climates must form belowground storage organs to contain carbohydrates for seasonal regrowth and to mitigate disturbance and damage. The factors that dictate the size and turnover of these organs are still little understood. According to the Integrator–Splitter Hypothesis, storage organ persistence decreases with greater moisture and nutrient avail ...

Abstract:
... Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PKPD) models have emerged as valuable tools for the characterization and translation of antibiotic effects, and consequently for drug development and therapy. In contrast to traditional PKPD concepts for antibiotics such as minimum inhibitory concentration and PKPD indices, PKPD models enable description of the continuous, often species- or population-dependent tim ...

Abstract:
... Índralupta is a disease characterized by patches of hair loss spread throughout the body and scalp. It can be considered alopecia areata according to conventional medical care. The present case report is on the effectiveness of shodhana (treatment in which aggravated doshas are expelled from the body) and shamana (treatment that pacifies the aggravated doshas) in the patient of índralupta. A patie ...
regrowth, etc ; Landsat; catenas; earthquakes; landslides; lithology; rain; topographic slope; vegetation; Show all 9 Subjects
Abstract:
... A major earthquake can trigger numerous landslides, which exert severe impacts on regional vegetation coverage. In some years following an earthquake, rainstorms can easily reactivate coseismic deposits and unstable hillslopes. Vegetation can improve the post-seismic slope instability by the root reinforcement effect, and it is significant to investigate the changes of surface recovery at coseismi ...

Abstract:
... Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor [L.] Moench) is an important annual forage crop. Multiple harvests per year not only increase the total yield of sorghum but also help to avoid its injury and damage by biotic and abiotic stresses. It is well known that S. bicolor subsp. drummondii, or sudangrass, regrows vigorously after cutting. To elucidate the genetic mechanisms underlying this ability, we evaluated re ...

Abstract:
... In vitro micrografting is an important technique supporting the micropropagation of a range of plant species, particularly woody plant species. Over the past several decades, in vitro micrografting has become a strategy to facilitate shoot recovery and acclimatization of in vitro-grown horticultural species. This review focuses on studies on horticultural crops over the past two decades that cover ...

Abstract:
... Understanding the long-term difference in the response times of ice sheets, peripheral ice caps and glaciers may provide information about their respective sensitivities to climate change. However, there are only a few places where the history of local glaciers, ice caps (GICs) and the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) have been recorded in the same area. In this study, we use proglacial threshold lake r ...

Abstract:
... Intermittent reduction of temperature set-points and periodic shutdowns of water heaters have been proposed to reduce energy consumption in buildings. However, the consequences of such measures on the occurrence and proliferation of Legionella pneumophila (Lp) in hot water systems have not been documented. The impact of single and repeated heat shocks was investigated using an environmental strain ...

Abstract:
... The importance of cascading effects of grasshopper predators on plant biomass involving grasshoppers in grassland ecosystems appears variable. A constraint of most grasshopper trophic cascade studies to date is that they examine responses of a single grasshopper species, while grasshopper feeding guilds could affect whether a trophic cascade is observed. As grasslands are grass dominated, grass fe ...

Abstract:
... Agri-environment incentives form a central mechanism supporting changes to land management to provide public benefits. This study assesses the medium-term effects of woodland management on 13 target, specialist woodland bird species, as well as other woodland birds in a single region of the UK. The abundance of breeding birds (using two methods: point counts and territory mapping) and metrics of w ...

Abstract:
... The regrowth of chlorine-resistant bacteria in drinking water can deteriorate water quality. The study evaluated the relationship between organic carbon and the regrowth potential of chlorine-resistant bacteria remaining in chloraminated water samples. The results showed that the community structure of bacteria changed with the increase of chloramine dosage. The order in which organic carbon utili ...

Abstract:
... Fall dormancy is a vital component of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) yield in northern climates, but selection for the trait is often done at the expense of winter survival. We performed one cycle of selection to reduce fall dormancy in two winter hardy cultivars (Yellowhead and Peace) using a new indoor screening method. We compared the reduced dormancy populations with their respective initial cul ...

Abstract:
... Residual biosolids can be land applied if they meet microbiological requirements at the time of application. Electro-dewatering technology is shown to reduce biosolids bacterial counts to detection limits with little potential for bacterial regrowth during incubations. Here, we investigated the impacts on Escherichia coli regrowth and microbial communities of biosolids pH, removed nutrients via th ...
