Determining the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of a compacted sand-bentonite mixture under constant volume and free-swell conditions [PDF]
Highly compacted sand-bentonite mixtures are often considered as possible engineered barriers in deep high-level radioactive waste disposals. In-situ, the saturation of these barriers from their initially unsaturated state is a complex hydro-mechanical ...

Adaptaquin selectively kills glioma stem cells while sparing differentiated brain cells. Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses show Adaptaquin disrupts iron and cholesterol homeostasis, with iron chelation amplifying cytotoxicity via cholesterol depletion, mitochondrial dysfunction, and elevated reactive oxygen species.

Valorization of kinnow fruit wastes: Sustainable approach towards environment [PDF]
During the processing of kinnow into juice, around 30-34% of the fruit peel and an average of 20-25 seeds are generated as trash. Consequently, the present study aims to determine the elemental composition, proximate, and oil content of locally ...

Changes in the water retention value and the sheet strength of TMP followed by post-sulfite cooking.
The object of this paper is to examine the influence of the changes in WRV of TMP follwed by post-sulfite cooking on the sheet density and the sheet strength.TMP classified over 42 wire mesh were treated with three types of sulfite liquor ranging from pH 4 to pH 13. Then, yield, sulfur content, water retention value, heat of wetting, crystalline index,

Prediction of water retention of soils from the humid tropics by the nonparametric k-nearest neighbor approach [PDF]
Nonparametric approaches such as the k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) approach are considered attractive for pedotransfer modeling in hydrology; however, they have not been applied to predict water retention of highly weathered soils in the humid tropics ...

This study characterizes the responses of primary acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patient samples to the MCL‐1 inhibitor MIK665. The results revealed that monocytic differentiation is associated with MIK665 sensitivity. Conversely, elevated ABCB1 expression is a potential biomarker of resistance to the treatment, which can be overcome by the combination ...
