Grain quality and N uptake of spring cereals as affected by nitrogen fertilization in northern conditions: a meta-analysis

open access: yesAgricultural and Food Science, 2013
We reviewed quantitatively 40 Finnish field experiments related to the effect of nitrogen (N) fertilizer on the main parameters of grain quality and N uptake of spring cereals. The experiments were conducted on a wide range of mineral soils under varying

Hydrogels Augmented With Artificial Sweeteners can Inhibit Multidrug‐Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Growth and Biofilm Formation While Demonstrating Safety in Pre‐Clinical Pilot Human Trials

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Using PVA–borax hydrogels as carriers for off‐the‐shelf artificial sweeteners to fight multidrug‐resistant A. baumannii. These soft, biocompatible hydrogels rapidly reduce bacterial viability within multidrug‐resistant A. baumannii biofilms by more than 99% within one hour and sustain antimicrobial activity over time, while demonstrating safety in both

Tumor‐Targeted Hyaluronic Acid/Tannic Acid‐Engineered Oxygen Nanogenerators With IR780 Payloads Enable Dual‐Mode Glutathione Depletion and Effective Singlet Oxygen Generation for Melanoma Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A hyaluronic acid/tannic acid‐engineered Prussian blue oxygen nanogenerator loaded with IR780 is developed to enhance melanoma phototherapy. By integrating tumor targeting, oxygen self‐supply, and dual‐mode glutathione depletion, the nanoplatform effectively overcomes hypoxia and antioxidant defenses, potentiating synergistic photothermal/photodynamic ...

Reproducibility of suppression of Pythium wilt of cucumber by compost

open access: yesAgricultural and Food Science, 2014
There is increasing global interest in using compost to suppress soil-borne fungal and bacterial diseases and nematodes. We studied the reproducibility of compost suppressive capacity (SC) against Pythium wilt of cucumber using nine composts produced by ...

Rare‐Earth–Functionalized Carbon Dot Hydrogels as Mechanically Robust Antibacterial Wound Dressings

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The schematic depicts a dynamically cross‐linked PVA hydrogel network in which reversible borate ester bonds and hydrogen‐bonding interactions integrate lanthanum‐doped carbon dots (La‐CDs) and dipotassium glycyrrhizinate (DPG) to form a mechanically robust, multifunctional matrix.

Slow-release fertilizer to increase grain N content in spring wheat

open access: yesAgricultural and Food Science, 2013
Low grain protein often restricts the use of grain lots for milling in Finland. Nitrogen availability during grain-filling may restrict grain protein accumulation, particularly in high yielding environments.

Nanoporous Silica Embedded in Nanoporous Platinum: A Versatile Composite Coating for Implant‐Associated Drug Delivery From Neuronal Electrodes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Nanoporous silica nanoparticles incorporated in nanoporous platinum offer the possibility for implant‐associated drug delivery from neuronal electrodes. ABSTRACT Sensorineural hearing loss, resulting from damage to the hair cells of the inner ear, profoundly impairs quality of life.

Yield, SDG lignan, cadmium, lead, oil and protein contents of linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) cultivated in trials and at different farm conditions in the south-western part of Finland

open access: yesAgricultural and Food Science, 2013
Linseed varieties were studied in variety trials and under farm conditions in south-western Finland in the years 2007−2010. The variation in yield, oil, protein, SDG lignan, cadmium and lead contents were studied in 8 oil and 2 fibre linseed varieties ...
