Determination of Chitin Content in Insects: An Alternate Method Based on Calcofluor Staining
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Chitin is an aminopolysaccharide present in yeast cells and arthropod cuticle and is one of the most abundant biopolymers. The conventional methods for the quantitation of chitin content in biological samples are based on its hydrolysis (acid or ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.How do chemical and physical processes involving multiple phases develop on compact astrophysical objects such as white dwarf stars? Herein, entropy‐driven self‐assembly of rod‐shaped nanoparticles in centrifugal acceleration fields up to 7251 times the gravity of Earth is investigated, where strong acceleration fields accelerated the kinetics of phase

Characterization of Early, Chitin-Induced Gene Expression in Arabidopsis
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2002 Three genes (i.e., a zinc finger protein, a lectin-like protein, and AtMPK3), previously shown to respond to chitin elicitation in microarray experiments, were used to examine the response of Arabidopsis spp. to chitin addition. Maximum induction for all

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This paper establishes a global high‐throughput fluorescence screening (GhitFluors) platform to efficiently identify ABA signaling modulators. It effectively identifies diopyridin, a regulator with strong binding affinity to PYR1, and more than 80% inhibitory activity against HAB1, which is equivalent to ABA.

Detecting local processing unit in drosophila brain by using network theory [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Community detection method in network theory was applied to the neuron network constructed from the image overlapping between neuron pairs to detect the Local Processing Unit (LPU) automatically in Drosophila brain. 26 communities consistent with the known LPUs, and 13 subdivisions were found. Besides, 45 tracts were detected and could be discriminated

Integration of fertility management, cultivar selection and alternative spray treatments to optimize control of foliar diseases of greenhouse grown tomatoes [PDF]
, 2007 Powdery mildew caused by Leveillula taurica (Lev.) Arn. is one of the most serious foliar diseases of greenhouse and open field tomato. The disease is currently controlled with the use of organic fungicides and sulphur, the latter being the only product ...

Hydrogel‐Based Smart Materials for Wound Healing and Sensing
Aggregate, EarlyView.The graphical abstract illustrates the role of hydrogel‐based flexible materials in advancing biomedical applications, including wound healing, point‐of‐care diagnostics, smart patches, and wearable devices. Hydrogels are particularly promising in modern wound care due to their high‐water content, flexibility, and biocompatibility.
