Background : Exposures to both ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and extreme weather conditions have been associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) deaths in numerous epidemiologic studies. However, evidence on the associations with CVD deaths for interaction effects between PM2.5 and weather conditions is still limited. This study aimed t...

Gram-negative marine bacterium Vibrio parahaemolyticus is an important aquatic pathogen and has been demonstrated to be the causative agent of acute hepatopancreatic necrotic disease (AHPND) in shrimp aquaculture. The AHPND-causing V. parahaemolyticus strains contain a pVA1 plasmid encoding the binary PirAVP and PirBVP toxins, are the primary virul...

Abstract By using the ORAC method, the values of the antiperoxyradical capacity of binary mixtures of bioflavonoids (quercetin, rutin, morin and naringin) with trolox or ascorbic acid, and individual antioxidants in the aqueous medium were determined. Through these values and the data of square wave voltammetry (SWV) method, the non-additive effect...

Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) have already been used as food additive in various products and are usually consumed with a considerable amount of sugar. Oral consumption of TiO2 NPs poses concerning health risks; however, research on the combined effect of ingested TiO2 NPs and glucose is limited. We examined young Sprague-Dawley rats ad...

A comparative study between graphene and modified graphene oxide (mGO) on the flame retardancy of graphite doped intumescent flame retardant (IFR) coatings is preliminarily investigated by cone calorimeter (CC), XRD, and SEM, with the final aim of clarifying the interactions between different graphenes and graphite doped coatings (polyester resin-a...

Here, we demonstrated an antagonistic effect of short neuropeptide F (sNPF) in modulating feeding motivation in the silkworm Bombyx mori; sNPF reduced the feeding-delaying effects caused by administration of an inhibitory peptide, allatotropin (AT). In situ hybridization and MALDI-TOF MS analysis revealed the presence of three subtypes of sNPFs (sN...

Ozone and wounding are key abiotic factors but, their interactive effects on temporal changes in terpene synthase gene expression and emission responses are poorly understood. Here, we applied combined acute ozone and wounding stresses to the constitutive isoprenoid-emitter Eucalyptus globulus and studied how isoprene, 1,8-cineole, and isoledene sy...

Nicotine has adverse cellular and molecular effects on oral mucosa, bone, and teeth. Vitamin E (α-tocopherol) and vitamin C (ascorbic acid) are biological antioxidants with positive effects on wound healing and bone formation. This in vitro study sought to assess the cytotoxic effects of different concentrations of nicotine and cotinine (a metaboli...

Sixty-eight bacterial cultures were isolated from 5 archaeological soils in Egypt. It is necessary to characterize bacteria from ancient temples to develop protection programs for such archaeological places. Purified bacterial cultures were then tested for their capability to inhibit some multi-drug resistant (MDR) pathogenic bacteria including Sta...

This chapter deals with estimation of interaction through different statistical models. Interaction is classified into two different classes, antagonistic and synergistic effects. An antagonistic effect is said to be present if the combination of two factors decrease the measure of interest as compared to the expected sum of the single effect of ea...
