Role of the intestinal microbiome in low-density polyethylene degradation by caterpillar larvae of the greater wax moth, Galleria mellonella

Proceedings of the Royal Society B, 2020
Recently, a few insects, including the caterpillar larva of the greater wax moth Galleria mellonella, have been identified as avid ‘plastivores’. These caterpillars are able to ingest and metabolize polyethylene at unprecedented rates.

Assessing the dimensional accuracy of the resultant casts made from monophase, one-step, two-step, and a novel two-step putty light body impression technique – An in vitro study

Saudi Journal of Oral Sciences, 2020
Background: The clinical success of fixed prosthodontics and dental implants is dependent on the dimensional accuracy of the impression obtained. Although there are many studies on different impression materials and the accuracy of the dies, only a few ...

B cell mechanobiology in health and disease: emerging techniques and insights into therapeutic responses

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

Raman analysis of polyethylene glycols and polyethylene oxides [PDF]

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2018
We present Raman study of commercial liquids and powders of polyethylene glycols and polyethylene oxides with the average molecular weight from 400 Da to 10000 kDa. The most significant spectral changes were observed for the range of the molecular weights, where the liquid/semisolid transition has occurred.

GDP‐fucose transporter SLC35C1: a potential regulatory role in cytosolic GDP‐fucose and fucosylated glycan synthesis

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The inactivation of SLC35C1 (GDP‐fucose transporter) and enzymes involved in GDP‐fucose biosynthesis was studied. Fucose supplementation increases the level of GDP‐fucose to abnormal, millimolar values in the absence of the TSTA3 protein and SLC35C1 in contrast to the GMDS/SLC35C1 double mutant.

Study on the Mechanical Responses of Plastic Pipes Made of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) in Water Supply Network

Applied Sciences, 2020
This paper studies the mechanical behavior of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), from which the pipes used for water transport in water supply networks are manufactured. The study was generated by the practical problem of replacing and modernizing a water

Femoral head penetration in Vitamin-E polyethylene liner versus conventional liners in total hip arthroplasty: systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised control trials

SICOT-J, 2021
Background: Debate encompasses the use of Vitamin E Polyethylene or conventional Polyethylene liner in primary hip arthroplasty. Does the Inclusion of Vitamin E in PE give adequate protection from oxidation and maintains lower rates of wear? Patients and
