Moderate Biochar–Compost Mixture Is More Effective in Improving Biomass, Nutrient Fluxes, and Photosynthetic Outputs for Sustainable Land Restoration and Soil Fertility

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil nutrient depletion severely constrains crop productivity in degraded and saline environments. Strategies such as biochar–compost integration could be useful for sustainable agriculture and land restoration on a global scale. This study evaluated the effects of biochar (1% Bc), compost (1% Co), and their blends (0.5% Bc + 0.5% Co and 1% Bc

Metabolic and volume status evaluation of hemodialysis patients with and without residual renal function in the long interdialytic interval

Brazilian Journal of Nephrology, 2019
Introduction: It is unclear whether residual renal function (RRF) in dialysis patients can attenuate the metabolic impact of the long 68-hour interdialytic interval, in which water, acid, and electrolyte accumulation occurs. Objective: to evaluate serum

Calibration‐Free Estimation of Cerebrovascular Reactivity From Resting‐State BOLD fMRI Using Reconstructed Respiratory Fluctuations

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) provides an important index of vascular health and is conventionally quantified using a hypercapnic gas or breath‐hold challenge in conjunction with blood‐oxygen‐level‐dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD‐fMRI).

Residual Renal Function in Children Treated with Chronic Peritoneal Dialysis

The Scientific World Journal, 2013
Residual renal function (RRF) in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) receiving renal replacement therapy is defined as the ability of native kidneys to eliminate water and uremic toxins.

Effects of Rapid Refrigeration and Modified Atmosphere Packaging on Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) Fruit Quality Traits

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) is a tropical fruit characterized by a rapid pericarp browning and dehydration during postharvest, resulting in an accelerated shelf life and in a loss of consumer appreciation and consequently of its market value. The aim

Innovations in polysaccharide‐based hydrogels in sustainable agriculture

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Polysaccharide‐based hydrogels are promising in sustainable agriculture, as these natural polymers have the ability to absorb water and nutrients and release them gradually in the soil, in addition to ensuring biodegradability and lower cost. However, some challenges still need to be overcome.

Interaction of RRF and EF-G from E. coli and T. thermophilus with ribosomes from both origins — insight into the mechanism of the ribosome recycling step

, 2005
Ribosome recycling factor (RRF), elongation factor-G (EF-G), and ribosomes from Thermus thermophilus (tt-) and Escherichia coli (ec-) were used to study the disassembly mechanism of post-termination ribosomal complexes by these factors.

Genome-wide RNAi of C. elegans using the hypersensitive rrf-3 strain reveals novel gene functions. [PDF]

, 2003
RNA-mediated interference (RNAi) is a method to inhibit gene function by introduction of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). Recently, an RNAi library was constructed that consists of bacterial clones expressing dsRNA, corresponding to nearly 90% of the 19,427 ...
