WATER QUALITY INDEX AS AN TOOL FOR RIVER ASSESSMENT IN AGRICULTURAL AREAS IN THE PAMPEAN PLAINS OF ARGENTINA

The contributions of nutrients and xenobiotics by anthropogenic activities developed in riverside deteriorate water quality. In this context, the impact of different agroindustry effluents on the water quality of Salado River in Buenos Aire...

Computational methods meet in vitro techniques: A case study on fusaric acid and its possible detoxification through cytochrome P450 enzymes

Mycotoxins are known environmental pollutants that may contaminate food and feed chains. Some mycotoxins are regulated in many countries to limit the trading of contaminated and harmful commodities. However, the so-called emerging mycotoxin...

Regional and strain-level prevalence of nitrogen-fixing Bradyrhizobium with potential N2O reduction in South Korea

Abstract Agricultural practices are the largest anthropogenic source of nitrous oxide (N2O), a potent greenhouse gas contributing to global climate change. Applying symbiotic microbial inoculants capable of complete denitrification offers a...

Intention-based and sensory-based predictions

Abstract We inhabit a continuously changing world, where the ability to anticipate future states of the environment is critical for adaptation. Anticipation can be achieved by learning about the causal or temporal relationship between senso...

Lits, souches, camps : circulations et proliférations écoféministes dans deux romans de Jean Hegland

Jean Hegland’s Into the Forest (1996) concludes with two sisters and their infant Burl abandoning their family home to embrace life in a neighbouring forest. Western domesticity, symbolised by private bedrooms, is replaced by the plural, bi...

Effects of Organic/Synthetic Fertilizers on Stimulated Biosynthesis of Polyphenol Compounds: Efficiency and Sustainability of Plants and Weeds in Monoculture and Competitive Conditions

Intensified use of fertilizers enhances crop yield; however, it can also make weed management more challenging. In addition to providing nutrients to crops, fertilizers also provide nutrients to weeds when they grow together with crops. All...

Microbial Biofilms Along a Geochemical Gradient at the Shallow-Water Hydrothermal System of Vulcano Island, Mediterranean Sea

Shallow water hydrothermal vents represent highly dynamic environments where strong geochemical gradients can shape microbial communities. Recently, these systems are being widely used for investigating the effects of ocean acidification on...

Polyphenols: From Theory to Practice

Background: The importance of polyphenols in human health is well known; these compounds are common in foods, such as fruits, vegetables, spices, extra virgin olive oil and wine. On the other hand, the different factors that modulate the bi...

Generation of proximal tubule spheroids for nephrotoxicity assessment

Background To date, nephrotoxicity in new drug development has been evaluated through two-dimensional culture of representative cell lines, such as HK-2 and human proximal tubule epithelial cells (hPTECs). Approximately 20% of new drugs tha...

Preclinical Characterization of Mobocertinib Highlights the Putative Therapeutic Window of This Novel EGFR Inhibitor to EGFR Exon 20 Insertion Mutations

Introduction: EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations account for 10% of all EGFR mutations and are mostly insensitive to approved EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR TKIs). Novel EGFR TKIs have been developed or repurposed for these mutants. A ...

Anticancer, antioxidant and antibacterial potential of L-Glutaminase (Streptomyces roseolus strain ZKB1) capped silver and zinc oxide nanoparticles and its molecular characterization

Abstract The current investigation reports anti-cancer, antioxidant and antibacterial potential of L-Glutaminase (Streptomyces roseolus strain ZKB1) and L-Glutaminase capped nanoparticles. The highest L-Glutaminase production of 9.57 U/mL w...

Evaluation of dentinal tubule penetration of a novel nano calcium hydroxide–zinc oxide intracanal medicament: An in vitro pilot study

Background: Residual microorganisms within dentinal tubules remain a key factor in persistent endodontic infections. Therefore, the ability of intracanal medicaments to effectively penetrate these tubules is critical for post-endodontic tre...

Application of plant extracts and Trichoderma harzianum for the management of tomato seedling damping-off caused by Rhizoctonia solani

Seedling production under smallholder farming systems can be negatively affected by both abiotic and biotic factors. Seedling damping-off caused by Rhizoctonia solani is one of the major biotic factors which causes significant yield reducti...
