On the Stability of the Soluble Amyloid Aggregates [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2009 Many amyloid proteins form metastable soluble aggregates (or protofibrils, or protein nanoparticles, with characteristic sizes from approximately 10 to a few hundred nm). These can coexist with protein monomers and amyloid precipitates. These soluble aggregates are key determinants of the toxicity of these proteins.

Land, 2023 Soil erosion and surface pollution near reservoirs can adversely affect water quality and safety. Soil aggregate stability is an important predictor of soil water loss and erosion resistance that is strongly influenced by land use.

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022 Soil aggregate is extremely important for soil health and sustainable land management. Overgrazing has caused serious degeneration of grassland in the past decades and how to restore the degraded soil through grazing management is urgently needed.

Biocrust-linked changes in soil aggregate stability along a climatic gradient in the Chilean Coastal Range [PDF]
SOIL, 2022 Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) composed of cyanobacteria, bacteria, algae, fungi, lichens, and bryophytes stabilize the soil surface. This effect has mainly been studied in arid climates, where biocrusts constitute the main biological agent to ...

Modelling the Clusters Aggregation and Aggregative Stability of Suspensions
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2023 The work considers the stability factor of disperse systems, which is determined by the rate of their aggregation. The novelty of submitted work is that the original heuristic model allowing for evaluating the elements of the aggregation matrix with moving from an infinite chain of aggregation equations to a closed finite system of equations has been ...

Aggregate stability affects carbon sequestration potential of different tropical soils
Annals of Tropical Research, 2018 Aggregate stability and carbon (C) sequestration in soils are closely related phenomena. However, high aggregate stability does not always ensure high carbon sequestration to some soil types since other binding agents could dominate other than carbon ...

Aggregate stability in soils cultivated with eucalyptus
Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2011 The objective of this work was to evaluate the aggregate stability of tropical soils under eucalyptus plantation and native vegetation, and assess the relationships between aggregate stability and some soil chemical and physical properties.

Aggregate-Size Stability Distribution and Soil Stability
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 2004 A new theoretical and experimental framework that permits an accurate determination of aggregate‐size stability distribution is presented. The size‐stability distribution in addition to estimating aggregate‐size distribution distinguishes between amounts of stable and unstable macroaggregates (>250 μm).
