An improved approach to estimating the infiltration characteristics in surface irrigation systems.

PLoS ONE, 2020
The most common methods for estimating the infiltration function are measurements through a double-ring infiltrometer (DRI) and empirical models. Infiltration data always exhibit different kinds of scatter, which affect the accuracy of the estimated ...

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Effect of VG Model Parameter Changes on Soil Infiltration Under Varying-head Infiltration

Renmin Zhujiang, 2021
In order to explore the influence of various parameters of Van Genuchten model on infiltration characteristics of soils of different textures in the condition of varying-head infiltration,based on the HYDRUS-1D model,this paper analyzes the sensitivity ...

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

An improved Green-Ampt model for rainfall infiltration in the inner dumping site of an open pit coal mine

Shuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi, 2021
Due to the characteristics of large reserves, loose structure and low strength, an inner dumping site in the open pit coal mine is prone to erosion or overall instability under the rainfall conditions.

The microbiome in human skin aging

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

A Study on the Effects of Modified Biochar on Water Movement and Nitrogen Leaching in Reclaimed Soils in Southern Henan

Agronomy
Reclaimed soil is an important reserve land resource, and improving its water and nitrogen retention was essential for sustainable agriculture. In this study, corn straw biochar (BC) and biochars modified with H3PO4 (HBC) and NaOH (NBC) were applied to ...

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Real-time prediction of soil infiltration characteristics for the management of furrow irrigation [PDF]

, 2006
The spatial and temporal variations commonly found in the infiltration characteristic for surface-irrigated fields are a major physical constraint to achieve higher irrigation application efficiencies.
