Combination of Two Kinds of Medicated Microparticles Based on Hyaluronic Acid or Chitosan for a Wound Healing Spray Patch [PDF]

Pharmaceutics, 2021
Olive leaves extract (OLE) has been extensively studied as antioxidant and antibiotic and these characteristics make it particularly interesting for use on wounds. For this reason, the aim of this study was to introduce OLE in microparticles (MP) of hyaluronic acid (MPHA-OLE) or chitosan (MPCs-OLE) to obtain a spray patch for the treatment of wounds in

Exogenous Abscisic Acid Can Influence Photosynthetic Processes in Peas through a Decrease in Activity of H⁺-ATP-ase in the Plasma Membrane

Biology, 2020
Abscisic acid (ABA) is an important hormone in plants that participates in their acclimation to the action of stressors. Treatment by exogenous ABA and its synthetic analogs are a potential way of controlling the tolerance of agricultural plants; however,

Determination of Spatial Weed Variability for Precision Spraying

Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2005
Weeds are patchy because weed spread, survival and reproduction are variable within a field and over time. Weed patches stay in about the same place from year to year, even though weed density within a patch may vary.

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

The Relationship Between Patch Spraying Cost and Target Weed Distribution [PDF]

, 2012
Carroll and Holden (2005) defined a method for quantifying weed distributions using distance transform analysis as a first-step in relating the distribution of weeds in a field to the type and cost of equipment used to spray the field (Carroll and Holden, 2009).
