Microbiota Landscape of Gut System of Guppy Fish (Poecilia reticulata) Plays an Outstanding Role in Adaptation Mechanisms

International Journal of Microbiology, 2019
Microbial consortium that is present in fish gut systems works together to achieve unknown specific roles. Here, we collected guppy fish from hydrocarbon- and trace metal-contaminated wastewater to assess the relationships between gut microbiota and host

Synergic Involvements of Microorganisms in the Biomedical Increase of Polyphenols and Flavonoids during the Fermentation of Ginger Juice. [PDF]

Int J Microbiol, 2020
Steered fermentation by microorganisms gives great added value in the nutritional quality of local food. Ginger rhizome naturally contains a myriad of bioactive compounds including polyphenol and flavonoids. The aim of this work was to ferment the ginger juice, to evaluate the biochemical parameters of ginger wine, and to understand the involvement of ...

A Wirelessly Controlled Shape‐Memory Alloy‐Based Bistable Metal Swimming Device

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 4, Issue 5, May 2022., 2022
A wirelessly controlled swimming device inspired by an octopus is fabricated. The actuator utilizes the shape memory alloy Nitinol and a bistable metal strip to realize repetitive actuation for both slow and fast swimming, mimicking how an octopus swims slowly, or quickly flees to escape predators.

A Hydrologic Functional Approach for Improving Large‐Sample Hydrology Performance in Poorly Gauged Regions

Water Resources Research, Volume 57, Issue 9, September 2021., 2021
Abstract Hydrologic functions of catchments are intrinsically diverse and defined as the ways catchments partition, store, and drain rainfall and snowmelt. Large‐sample hydrology (LSH) uses existing datasets of catchments to derive generalizable conclusions on hydrologic behaviors.

Profiling of Indigenous Biosurfactant‐Producing Bacillus Isolates in the Bioremediation of Soil Contaminated by Petroleum Products and Olive Oil

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Petroleum is, up to this date, an inimitable nonrenewable energy resource. Petroleum leakage, which arises during transport, storage, and refining, is the most important contaminant in the environment, as it produces harm to the surrounding ecosystem.

Characterization of novel interactions with membrane NEU1 highlights new regulatory functions for the Elastin Receptor Complex in monocyte interaction with endothelial cells

Cell & Bioscience, 2021
Background Vascular aging is associated with remodeling of elastin, one of the main extracellular matrix component of the arterial wall, and production of elastin-derived peptides (EDP).

Moringa and Graphite as Additives to Conventional Petroleum-Based Lubricants

Lubricants, 2021
Many researches are focused on the tribological performances of pure vegetable oil in order to replace the conventional mineral engine oils. This work investigates the influence of local moringa oil (noted VO) on the performances of lubricants formed ...

On the cross-tropopause transport of water by tropical convective overshoots: a mesoscale modelling study constrained by in situ observations during the TRO-Pico field campaign in Brazil [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2022
Deep convection overshooting the lowermost stratosphere is well known for its role in the local stratospheric water vapour (WV) budget. While it is seldom the case, local enhancement of WV associated with stratospheric overshoots is often published ...

Apelin expression deficiency in mice contributes to vascular stiffening by extracellular matrix remodeling of the aortic wall

Scientific Reports, 2021
Numerous recent studies have shown that in the continuum of cardiovascular diseases, the measurement of arterial stiffness has powerful predictive value in cardiovascular risk and mortality and that this value is independent of other conventional risk ...
