Chemoenzymatic elaboration of monosaccharides using engineered cytochrome P450_(BM3) demethylases [PDF]

, 2009
Polysaccharides comprise an extremely important class of biopolymers that play critical roles in a wide range of biological processes, but the synthesis of these compounds is challenging because of their complex structures.

Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics and haematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics, redox state, hydration and hematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice. Retained mitochondria in circulating RBCs from sickle mice are a source of RBC ATP as mitochondria function (ETC, electron transport chain) inhibitors [rotenone, a mitochondrial complex I

The Trophic status of Bidighinzu Reservoir (Sardinia) before and after the diversion of waste waters [PDF]

, 2001
The purpose of this paper was to assess the effect of the diversion of wastewater on the trophic status of Lake Bidighinzu, a hypertrophic man-made lake in Northern Sardinia, used as a drinking water reservoir.

Neuromuscular fatigability with repeated exercise in hypoxia: From single‐joint paradigms to sprints

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Acute hypobaric or normobaric hypoxic exposure accelerates neuromuscular fatigability during repeated exercise. Indices of peripheral and central fatigue are not different at exhaustion in mild, moderate and severe hypoxia compared with normoxia, but task failure occurs earlier.

Production of Green Diesel via Solvent-aided Deoxygenation of Methyl Oleate over Bimetallic NiCo/TiO2 Catalyst

Chemical Engineering Transactions
Commercialised biodiesel, comprising of methyl esters, have large amounts of oxygenated compounds which cause low calorific value, high viscosity, poor low temperature performance and can only used in blends with petroleum-based diesel.

Enhancing Understanding of Siloxane Surface Properties and Functional Group Effects on Water Deoxygenation

ChemEngineering
The deoxygenation process in water used in well injection operations is an important matter to eliminate corrosion in the petroleum industry. This study used molecular dynamics simulations to understand the behavior of siloxane surfaces by studying the ...

Voxelotor improves red blood cell functionality in children with sickle cell anaemia: An ancillary study of the HOPE‐KIDS 1 trial

eJHaem
Introduction: Sickle haemoglobin (HbS) polymerisation perturbs red blood cell (RBC) rheology and drives sickle cell disease (SCD) pathophysiology. Voxelotor is an HbS polymerisation inhibitor that increases haemoglobin (Hb)–oxygen affinity.
