Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are important shields for microalgae when confronting with external stresses. However, the underlying roles of EPS in the interactions between microplastics (MPs) and microalgae remain poorly understood. In this study, three sizes of polystyrene (PS) MPs (20 nm, 100 nm, and 1 μm) were chosen for evaluating t...

A convex pattern surface has been proposed and optimized to reduce sliding wear of bulk handling equipment by adjusting the flow behaviour of bulk material. This study aims at modelling the surface deformation of the convex pattern sample to investigate how effectively the sample reduces sliding wear. Archard wear model and a deformable geometry te...

Zaire ebolavirus, Sudan ebolavirus, and Marburg marburgvirus are the filoviruses most commonly associated with human disease. Previously, we administered a three-dose regimen of trivalent vaccines comprising glycoprotein antigens from each virus in mice and non-human primates (NHPs). The vaccines, which contained a polysorbate 80-stabilized squalan...

Suspended fine sediment has a significant impact on freshwater quality variables such as visual clarity (VC). However, freshwater quality is related to the attributes of the catchment sources contributing fine sediment to the stream network. Here, the extent to which an array of sources defined spatially according to erosion process and geological ...

In this study, soybean dietary fiber (DF) was used as nutritional supplement and gel enhancer in soy protein isolate (SPI) gels. The effects of DF particle sizes (100-mesh, DF100; 200-mesh, DF200), DF content and transglutaminase (TGase) addition on the gel properties of DF-enriched soy protein isolate (DSPI) gels were studied. The results showed t...

Demineralized bone matrix (DBM) is a natural and collagen-based allogeneic bone graft material with good bioactivity and biocompatibility. However, there are conflicting reports on the efficiency of this product owning to the relevant factors, especially, the particle size of DBM. In the current study, osteoblasts were seeded onto DBM with diverse ...

Propolis has many benefits for human health. To facilitate its oral consumption, we designed propolis-in-water dispersions to be used as nutraceuticals. Propolis was first dissolved either in ethanol or in a hydroalcoholic solution. Water being a non-solvent for propolis, its addition produced propolis precipitation. We explored the ternary phase d...

An increase in protein aggregates during transportation should be suppressed in therapeutic protein products because the aggregates have a potential risk of immunogenicity. In this study, three protein solutions in vials were exposed to tri-axial vibration with various combinations of frequency and acceleration using a transportation test system to...

Diffuse pollution is recognised as a major challenge in achieving EU Water Framework Directive compliance, with urban runoff being a key pathway connecting various sources to receiving waters. Gully pots, as one of the ubiquitous urban drainage infrastructures, are placed at the inlets of piped drainage pipe network and actively drain runoff from u...
