Monitoring PHB production in Synechocystis sp. with hyperspectral images [PDF]
Microalgae wastewater treatment systems have the potential for producing added-value products. More specifically, cyanobacteria are able to accumulate polyhydroxybutyrates (PHBs), which can be extracted and used for bioplastics production.

PLA/PHB Blends: Biocompatibilizer Effects [PDF]
The purpose of this work was to formulate a fully bio-based blend with superior properties, based on two immiscible polymers: polylactic acid (PLA) and poly-hydroxy butyrate (PHB). To improve the miscibility between the polymeric phases, two different kinds of compatibilizers with a different chemical structure were used, namely, an ethylene oxide ...

No conclusive evidence that difficult general knowledge questions cause a “Google Stroop effect”. A replication study [PDF]
Access to the digital “all-knowing cloud” has become an integral part of our daily lives. It has been suggested that the increasing offloading of information and information processing services to the cloud will alter human cognition and metacognition in

The impact of affective states and traits on perceptual stability during binocular rivalry
Affective states and traits have been associated with different measures of perceptual stability during binocular rivalry. Diverging approaches to measuring perceptual stability as well as to examination of the role of affective variables have ...

The Screening of PHB Secretion Strain of PHB Synthesis [PDF]
PHB is similar with non degradable plastic which is widely used in most properties. It is supposed to be an excellent substitute of traditional petrochemical plastics because of its biodegradable character. However, the production cost of PHB is much higher than that of traditional plastic.

Production and Utilization of SPIONs for In-vitro Drug Release and X-ray Imaging
In this study, SPIONs were produced in the presence of cobalt as catalyst. SPIONs formed by this chemical co-precipitation were size around 20 nm. After producing the SPIONs, it was subjected for functionalization with oleic acid and loaded with drug -
