Residual eDNA in eRNA Extracts Skews eRNA-Based Biodiversity Assessment: Call for Optimised DNase Treatment. [PDF]
Mol Ecol ResourABSTRACT Environmental RNA (eRNA) metabarcoding has rapidly emerged as a powerful tool for assessing contemporary biodiversity patterns across diverse ecosystems. However, the potential for false positive detections caused by co‐extracted environmental DNA (eDNA) remains unquantified.

Pattern of Detections Across Multiple Environmental Messenger RNAs (e-mRNAs) in Stressor-Exposed Zebrafish (<i>Danio rerio</i>). [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe evaluated e‐mRNAs of known molecular targets of perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) toxicity in zebrafish in a controlled laboratory experiment. The detection patterns of e‐mRNAs in our study imply that diminishing detection of these traces over time is a strong indicator of target organism presence (or very recent presence), providing a narrower ...

Warm temperature and alkaline conditions accelerate environmental RNA degradation
Environmental DNA, 2023 Recent developments in environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis allow more rapid and extensive biomonitoring than traditional capture‐based surveys do. However, detection of eDNA not derived from living organisms may lead to false‐positive inferences of species

Mode coupling bi-stability and spectral broadening in buckled carbon nanotube mechanical resonators
Nature Communications, 2022 Computing, memories, and digital electronics are based on the operation principle of bi-stable systems. Here, Yaish et al. report the unusual non-linear behaviour of buckled up carbon nanotubes mechanical resonators, which allows high electrical ...

Scientific Reports, 2022 Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is widely used for species analysis, while the use of environmental RNA (eRNA) metabarcoding is more limited. We conducted comparative eDNA/eRNA metabarcoding of the algae and arthropods (aquatic insects) in water ...

Self-extracellular RNA acts in synergy with exogenous danger signals to promote inflammation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Self-extracellular RNA (eRNA), released from stressed or injured cells upon various pathological situations such as ischemia-reperfusion-injury, has been shown to act as an alarmin by inducing procoagulatory and proinflammatory responses.

Neurobiology of Disease, 2023 Evoked resonant neural activity (ERNA) is induced by subthalamic deep brain stimulation (DBS) and was recently suggested as a marker of lead placement and contact selection in Parkinson's disease. Yet, its underlying mechanisms and how it is modulated by

Automated circuit fabrication and direct characterization of carbon nanotube vibrations
Nature Communications, 2016 Integrating carbon nanotubes into electronic devices requires quick and non-invasive imaging of the nanostructures for precision positioning. Here, the authors use the base of the nanotubes to nucleate the growth of optically visible organic nanocrystals,

Bose–Einstein condensation of photons in an erbium–ytterbium co-doped fiber cavity
Nature Communications, 2019 Bose–Einstein condensates were demonstrated at low temperatures, mostly with ultracold bosonic atoms. Here, the authors demonstrate BEC of photons in a standard 1D erbium–ytterbium co-doped fiber cavity at, below and above room temperature.
