Plastic ingestion by North Pacific garbage patch fishes: highest occurrences and quantities in upper trophic pelagics

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Communications
Plastic marine debris (PMD) is rapidly accumulating in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre, exposing fishes living in the North Pacific garbage patch (NPGP) to extremely high PMD concentrations.

Comparative analysis of cleaning ability of three nickel-titanium rotary systems: ProTaper universal, K3 and Mtwo: An in vitro scanning electron microscopic study

open access: yesNigerian Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2016
Background: Endodontic instruments including the nickel-titanium (NiTi) instruments produce debris and smear layer during instrumentation. The study was carried out to evaluate and compare the cleaning effectiveness of root canal preparation using three ...

p190A/ARHGAP35 and p190B/ARHGAP5 proteins in endometrial cancer: a novel cancer‐relevant paralog interplay

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.

Separation of microplastics from deep-sea sediment using an affordable, simple to use, and easily accessible density separation device

open access: yesMicroplastics and Nanoplastics
Microplastics accumulate in the environment but methods to extract particles from sediment for quantification and identification often lack accuracy and reproducibility.

Debris-flow erosion and deposition dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Debris flows are a major natural hazard in mountains world wide, because of their destructive potential. Prediction of occurrence, magnitude and travel distance is still a scientific challenge, and thus research into the mechanics of debris flows is ...

Bridging the gap: a genetically validated avian chorioallantoic membrane platform for investigation of spontaneous circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We established the avian chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay as a scalable in vivo model for studying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Human gastrointestinal tumors spontaneously released genetically validated CTCs that were detected across multiple platforms, demonstrating that the CAM model provides an accessible tool for investigating early cancer ...

Assessing ice-cliff backwasting and its contribution to total ablation of debris-covered Miage glacier, Mont Blanc massif, Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Continuous surface debris cover strongly reduces the ablation of glaciers, but high melt rates may occur at ice cliffs that are too steep to hold debris.

Optimization of seminal extracellular vesicle isolation protocols for cancer biomarker analysis using proteomic profiling

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This paper shows that size‐exclusion chromatography and sequential centrifugation applied to seminal plasma enrich for different populations of extracellular vesicles. This may significantly affect the detection and analysis of extracellular vesicle‐associated cancer biomarkers.

Bayesian Adaptive Extended Kalman-Based Orbit Determination for Optical Observation Satellites

open access: yesSensors
As the number of satellites and amount of space debris in Low-Earth orbit (LEO) increase, high-precision orbit determination is crucial for ensuring the safe operation of spacecraft and maintaining space situational awareness.
