Wax removal using pipeline pigs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The deposition of paraffin wax solids in pipelines and risers represents a continuing challenge to flow assurance in offshore installations. Wax deposits reduce product throughput, requiring increased energy expenditure to re-establish flow levels.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Effects of Sorbitan Monostearate and Stearyl Alcohol on the Physicochemical Parameters of Sunflower-Wax-Based Oleogels

open access: yesGels, 2022
A rising health concern with saturated fatty acids allowed researchers to look into the science of replacing these fats with unsaturated fatty acids. Oleogelation is a technique to structure edible oil using gelators.

Assessment of Newly Registered Varroa destructor Infestation Control Acaricides in The Colonies of Honey Bees Apis mellifera L. Under Egyptian Conditions تقدیر فعالیة بعض المبیدات الاکاروسیة المسجلة حدیثا لمکافحة الفاروا فی طوائف نحل العسل تحت الظروف المصریة [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Protection and Pathology, 2020
  Varroa destructor is one of the most deadly pests threatening honey bees and many acaricides have been used worldwide to combat the disease. Thus, this work aimed to evaluate Varoviga® and Bayvarol® acaricides under the Egyptian conditions compared to ...

Septin 9 PB domains coordinate centrosome positioning and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...
