Modern dust aerosol availability in northwestern China

Scientific Reports, 2017
The sources of modern dust aerosols and their emission magnitudes are fundamental for linking dust with climate and environment. Using field sample data, wind tunnel experiments and statistical analysis, we determined the contributions of wadis, gobi ...

Chemical Composition Influence on Macadam Surface Texture

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
The difference of the macadam composition directly affects the texture characteristics of the macadam surface. Through the microscopic digital image analysis of macadam, this paper compares and analyses the distribution area ratio, perimeter, dendritic ...

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Effect of Deposition Parameters on the Supercapacitive Behavior of Electroless Ni–P Coatings

Metals
Electroless nickel–phosphorus (Ni–P) coatings were deposited on steel substrates for 20, 40, and 60 min to examine the effect of deposition time on their pseudocapacitive behavior in an alkaline electrolyte.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Surface modification of bioceramics: chemically enhanced laser surface microstructuring of hydroxyapatite [PDF]

, 2008
PhDBioceramics have been developed for implants to repair damaged tissues of the human musculo-skeletal system. The clinical success of a bioceramic implant depends largely on the chemical response at the implant interface in addition to the ...
