Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Ground‐Dwelling Spider Community Responses to Forest Management in a Mediterranean Oak Forest

Ecology and Evolution
Timber production is one of the most important ecosystem services provided by hardwood forests, but clear‐cutting causes severe soil disturbance. There is a current need to develop alternative forest management practices to clear‐cutting in order to ...

The effect of thinning on growth and wood production of Caucasian alder (Alnus subcordata) plantation in Nowshahr region [PDF]

مجله جنگل ایران, 2009
In order to study the effect of thinning operation on growth and wood production, an alder plantation (Alnus subcordata) on deep and moist soil with medium fertility was selected and thinned during 10 years. All standing and fallen trees were measured in

Raman‐based label‐free microscopic analysis of the pancreas in living zebrafish larvae

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Forward stimulated Raman scattering (F‐SRS) and epi coherent anti‐Stokes Raman scattering (E‐CARS) allow label‐free discrimination of distinct subcellular structures in the pancreas of living zebrafish larvae. Given the straightforward applicability, we anticipate broad implementation of Raman microscopy in other organs and across various biomedical ...

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

Influence of stand density, thinning and elevated CO2 on stem wood density of spruce

Journal of Forest Science, 2007
Stem wood density (SWD) of young Norway spruce trees (Picea abies [L.] Karst.) growing at ambient (A variant, 350 µmol(CO2)/mol) and elevated (E variant, A + 350 µmol(CO2)/mol) atmospheric CO2 concentration inside of the glass domes with adjustable ...

Polarization‐resolved femtosecond Vis/IR spectroscopy tailored for resolving weak signals in biological samples using minimal sample volume

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Unique biological samples, such as site‐specific mutant proteins, are available only in limited quantities. Here, we present a polarization‐resolved transient infrared spectroscopy setup with referencing to improve signal‐to‐noise tailored towards tracing small signals. We provide an overview of characterizing the excitation conditions for polarization‐

Thin Melanoma

Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, 2011
Abstract Context.—The incidence of malignant melanoma is increasing and a preponderance of the melanomas diagnosed today are “thin” in terms of Breslow criteria. Although thin melanomas, as a group, are associated with a very good prognosis, a subset of these tumors may metastasize and cause death.
