Moreover, these silicon transporters are predicted to be localized in plasma membrane, but their structural differences indicate that they might have differences in their silicon uptake ability. Silicon amendment induces the synergistic defense mechanism by significantly increasing the transcript level of silicon transporter genes (EcLsi1, EcLsi2…[Read more]

The bulky DPAs also show excellent stability under UV irradiation with exposure to oxygen compared to DPA. These results provide a strategy for developing efficient solid-state TF-UC systems based on nano/micro-particles of emitter-sensitizer mixtures.The low-temperature defect chemistry of monoclinic and tetragonal ZrO2 and hematite Fe2O3 is…[Read more]

e reasons could be considered adverse events or adverse effects. Fifty-four studies described reasons for withdrawal, and 10 of these studies had reasons that could be categorized as an adverse event, 8 studies had reasons that could be categorized as an adverse effect, and an additional 12 studies had reasons that were too vaguely described to…[Read more]

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) process as a practical and competitive sensing strategy was utilized between carbon quantum dots (C-dots) and silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) for the determination of mercuric ions. The novel synthesized C-dots with the quantum yield of 84% acted as the donor and Ag NPs operated as the acceptor in the…[Read more]

Considering the increasing prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), the development of an effective screening and follow-up system that enables the recognition of etiological changes by primary physicians in clinics and specialists in hospitals is required.

Chronic hepatitis B (HBV) and C…[Read more]
