An investigation into the transcription factors and regulatory mechanisms of Aspergillus
Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.Foodborne pathogen Aspergillus, a prevalent etiologic agent among filamentous fungi, are distinguished by a significant repertoire of transcription factors encoded within their genomes. These regulatory proteins are instrumental in orchestrating key biological processes, including cellular growth, secondary metabolite biosynthesis, mycotoxin production,

Electronic Properties of Eumelanin Monomers and Dimmers [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 The melanin is a group of biological pigments commonly found in living beings, it can be classified in three groups: eumelanin human beings, pheomelanins in animals, and allomelanins in the vegetal kingdom. There is a special interest in the eumelanin because this biopolymer exhibits the typical properties of a semiconductor.

“Everyone Wants to Feel Like a Movie Star”: Aesthetics, Work, Pleasure, and Caste in India
Anthropology of Work Review, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 95-105, Winter 2022., 2022 Abstract This article explores the social category of work as it intersects with pleasure (mazaa). Through an ethnography of beauty workers in urban New Delhi, in interwoven digital and non‐digital spaces, I interrogate how certain forms of work are valued at the expense of others.
