Effect of suspended solids on interaction between filter-feeding fish Aristichthys nobilis and zooplankton in a shallow lake using a mesocosm experiment

open access: yesJournal of Freshwater Ecology, 2017
Suspended solids (SS) resulting from sediment resuspension (SR) can impact ecosystems through direct and indirect effects on freshwater organisms and their interactions.

A simulation method for determining the optical response of highly complex photonic structures of biological origin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present a method based on a time domain simulation of wave propagation that allows studying the optical response of a broad range of dielectric photonic structures.

Screening and epitope characterization of Nidogen‐2‐specific nanobodies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Camel immunization and phage display were employed to generate high‐affinity VHH nanobodies against Nidogen‐2. After library construction, biopanning, ELISA screening, sequencing, and recombinant expression, selected nanobodies were purified and characterized, leading to the preliminary exploration of a nanobody‐based sandwich ELISA for specific ...

Biofouling of inlet pipes affects water quality in running seawater aquaria and compromises sponge cell proliferation [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2015
Marine organism are often kept, cultured, and experimented on in running seawater aquaria. However, surprisingly little attention is given to the nutrient composition of the water flowing through these systems, which is generally assumed to equal in situ

Modeling Underwater Visual and Filter Feeding by Planktivorous Shearwaters in Unusual Sea Conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Short-tailed Shearwaters (Puffinus tenuirostris) migrate between breeding areas in Australia and wintering areas in the Bering Sea. These extreme movements allow them to feed on swarms of euphausiids (krill) that occur seasonally in different regions ...

Evaluation of synthetic repellents on mosquito nets in experimental huts against insecticide-resistant Anopheles gambiae and Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes.

open access: yes, 2006
Owing to the development of pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles gambiae, there is a need to develop chemical alternatives for use on mosquito nets. Synthetic insect repellents are widely used for personal protection as skin or clothing applications.

What Do Large Language Models Know About Materials?

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
If large language models (LLMs) are to be used inside the material discovery and engineering process, they must be benchmarked for the accurateness of intrinsic material knowledge. The current work introduces 1) a reasoning process through the processing–structure–property–performance chain and 2) a tool for benchmarking knowledge of LLMs concerning ...

The vertical distribution and biological transport of marine microplastics across the epipelagic and mesopelagic water column. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Plastic waste has been documented in nearly all types of marine environments and has been found in species spanning all levels of marine food webs. Within these marine environments, deep pelagic waters encompass the largest ecosystems on Earth. We lack a
