Dependence of Water-Permeable Chitosan Membranes on Chitosan Molecular Weight and Alkali Treatment
Chitosan membranes were prepared by the casting method combined with alkali treatment. The molecular weight of chitosan and the alkali treatment influenced the water content and water permeability of the chitosan membranes. The water content increased as

We integrated short‐read and long‐read RNA‐seq data from cochlear tissues of echolocating and non‐echolocating bats to disentangle transcriptional and post‐transcriptional regulation. Echolocating bats showed neural‐function enrichment among differentially expressed genes, while alternatively spliced genes were linked to epigenetic regulation. Overlaps

Cost‐benefit analysis to provide decision criteria: A case study of municipalities in Japan
Abstract This study explores the use of cost‐benefit analysis (CBA) as a decision‐making tool by deriving boundary values that distinguish positive and negative policy outcomes. While traditional CBA relies on fully quantifiable inputs, this approach focuses on providing reference values for uncertain variables, using CO2 emission reductions as an ...

Background and Purpose Dopamine receptor agonists, particularly targeting the dopamine D2L receptor (D2LR), have been used to treat Parkinson's disease (PD). However, valvular heart disease and somnolence, mainly caused by activating the serotonin 5‐HT2B receptor (5‐HT2BR) and dopamine D3 receptor (D3R), respectively, currently challenge their clinical

Effects of Forage Rice Cultivation on Carbon and Greenhouse Gas Balances in a Rice Paddy Field
The effects of conversion from staple rice to forage rice on carbon and greenhouse gas (GHG) balances in a paddy field were evaluated. A staple rice plot without the application of livestock manure compost (LMC, S − M plot) and forage rice plots ...
