Recurrent chromosomal imbalances provide selective advantage to human embryonic stem cells under enhanced replicative st...
...
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and embryonal tumors share a number of common features, including a compromised G1/S checkpoint. Consequently, these rapidly dividing hESCs and cancer cells undergo elevated levels of replicative stress, inducing genomic instability that drives chromosomal imbalances. In this context, it is of interest that long-t...
Unraveling the relative role of light and water competition between lianas and trees in tropical forests : a vegetation ...
...
1. Despite their low contribution to forest carbon stocks, lianas (woody vines) play an important role in the carbon dynamics of tropical forests. As structural parasites, they hinder tree survival, growth and fecundity; hence, they negatively impact net ecosystem productivity and long-term carbon sequestration. 2. Competition (for water and light)...
Determination of poly‐β‐hydroxybutyrate assimilation by postlarval whiteleg shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei using stable 13...
A preliminary study was conducted to demonstrate fate of the bacterial storage compound poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) once ingested and degraded in vivo in crustaceans. The 2% supplementation of C-13-labeled Ralstonia eutropha DSM545 containing 75% PHB on dry weight in postlarval whiteleg shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei resulted in consistent enrich...
Home consumption of two fortified balanced energy protein supplements by pregnant women in Burkina Faso
...
Balanced energy protein (BEP) supplementation for pregnant and lactating women in low- and middle-income countries is a promising strategy to improve birth outcomes and child growth. The objective of this study was to assess and compare the acceptability of new formulations of two fortified BEP supplements, a lipid-based peanut paste and a vanilla ...
Effect of proton pump inhibitor on microbial community, function, and kinetics in anaerobic digestion with ammonia stres...
Published in Bioresource technology
The proton pump is a convincing mechanism for ammonia inhibition in anaerobic digestion, which explained how the ammonia accumulated intercellularly due to diffusion of free ammonia. Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) was dosed for mitigating the accumulation in anaerobic digestion with ammonia stress, with respect to kinetics. Results show PPI inhibited ...
Understorey removal effects on tree regeneration in temperate forests: A meta-analysis
The unwanted development of dense understorey vegetation composed of resource-acquisitive, tall plant species competing strongly with tree regeneration can pose formidable problems for managers attempting to regenerate temperate forests. Despite many studies on the effects of understorey removal, no comprehensive review has summarised and quantifie...
A Systematic Review of Food Allergy: Nanobiosensor and Food Allergen Detection.
Published in Biosensors
Several individuals will experience accidental exposure to an allergen. In this sense, the industry has invested in the processes of removing allergenic compounds in food. However, accidental exposure to allergenic proteins can result from allergenic substances not specified on labels. Analysis of allergenic foods is involved in methods based on im...
Computation of single-cell metabolite distributions using mixture models
Metabolic heterogeneity is widely recognized as the next challenge in our understanding of non-genetic variation. A growing body of evidence suggests that metabolic heterogeneity may result from the inherent stochasticity of intracellular events. However, metabolism has been traditionally viewed as a purely deterministic process, on the basis that ...
Single-bubble dynamics in nanopores: Transition between homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation
When applying a voltage bias across a thin nanopore, localized Joule heating can lead to single-bubble nucleation, offering a unique platform for studying nanoscale bubble behavior, which is still poorly understood. Accordingly, we investigate bubble nucleation and collapse inside solid-state nanopores filled with electrolyte solutions and find tha...
