Interaction of solid organic acids with carbon nanotube field effect transistors [PDF]

Chem. Phys. Lett. 430 (2006) 75, 2007
A series of solid organic acids were used to p-dope carbon nanotubes. The extent of doping is shown to be dependent on the pKa value of the acids. Highly fluorinated carboxylic acids and sulfonic acids are very effective in shifting the threshold voltage and making carbon nanotube field effect transistors to be more p-type devices.

Chytrids enhance Daphnia fitness by selectively retained chytrid‐synthesised stearidonic acid and conversion of short‐chain to long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids

Freshwater Biology, Volume 68, Issue 1, Page 77-90, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Chytrid fungal parasites convert dietary energy and essential dietary molecules, such as long‐chain (LC) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), from inedible algal/cyanobacteria hosts into edible zoospores. How the improved biochemical PUFA composition of chytrid‐infected diet may extend to zooplankton, linking diet quality to consumer fitness ...

Evaluation of the impact of genetic polymorphisms in glutathione-related genes on the association between methylmercury or n-3 polyunsaturated long chain fatty acids and risk of myocardial infarction: a case-control study

Environmental Health, 2011
Background The n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid, which are present in fish, are protective against myocardial infarction.

Nutraceuticals and COVID‐19: A mechanistic approach toward attenuating the disease complications

Journal of Food Biochemistry, Volume 46, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Nutraceuticals have emerged as potential compounds to attenuate the COVID‐19 complications. Precisely, these food additives strengthen the overall COVID treatment and enhance the immunity of a person. Such compounds have been used at a large scale, in almost every household due to their better affordability and easy access.

Effects of low‐dust forages on dust exposure, airway cytology, and plasma omega‐3 concentrations in Thoroughbred racehorses: A randomized clinical trial

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 338-348, January/February 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Racehorses commonly develop evidence of mild asthma in response to dust exposure. Diets deficient in omega‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (Ω‐3) might exacerbate this response. Hypothesis To compare dust exposure, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) cytology, and plasma Ω‐3 and specialized pro‐resolving mediators (SPM) concentrations ...

Adipose tissue arachidonic acid content is associated with the expression of 5-lipoxygenase in atherosclerotic plaques

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2013
Background The content of arachidonic acid in adipose tissue is positively associated with the risk of myocardial infarction, whereas the content of eicosapentaenoic acid in adipose tissue has been reported to be negatively associated with the risk of ...

Automated system of tubular filtration for rotifer production

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 53, Issue 6, Page 1145-1154, December 2022., 2022
Abstract This study developed an automated filtration system for a selected rotifer, Brachionus ibericus. This system is controlled by a programmable logic controller, and it enables the high‐density cultivation of marine rotifers and the selection of rotifers for palatability.

The omega-3 fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid is required for normal alcohol response behaviors in C. elegans. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Alcohol addiction is a widespread societal problem, for which there are few treatments. There are significant genetic and environmental influences on abuse liability, and understanding these factors will be important for the identification of susceptible
