Metabolomics-guided discovery of cytotoxic anthraquinones from the Red Sea-derived fungus Aspergillus amstelodami associated with Sargassum aquifolium.

Investigating seasonal velocity variations of selected glaciers in high mountain asia

Glacier velocity is a sensitive indicator of mass balance and is key to understanding how glaciers respond to climate change. Monitoring glacier velocity at high temporal resolutions enables a better understanding of the drivers of glacier ...

Sleep behaviours and associated habits and the progression of pre-diabetes to type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Introduction Certain sleep behaviours increase risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the general population, but whether they contribute to the progression from pre-diabetes to T2DM is uncertain. We conducted a systematic review to ass...

Influence of Station-to-Station Line Orientation on Sea Current Speed Observation Using Coastal Acoustic Tomography

The influence of station-to-station line orientation on sea current speed observations using Coastal Acoustic Tomography (CAT) was quantitatively investigated. For this purpose, we conducted CAT experiments at five stations in Yeosu Bay, So...

Dispersal homogenizes communities via immigration even at low rates in a simplified synthetic bacterial metacommunity

Fodelianakis et al. examine the role of immigration and selection as the means of community homogenisation in a bacterial metacommunity. They confirmed the role of immigration in homogenisation, even when immigration was four times slower t...

Depth-wise variations in biofouling community development on aquaculture cage nets in the Red Sea

This study examined the development of biofouling assemblages on cage net panels submerged at different depths in a fish farm in the Red Sea. Experimental rafts equipped with Dyneema fibre nets were submerged at depths of 5, 10 and 15  m. R...

Dietary Supplementation with the Red Seaweed <i>Porphyra umbilicalis</i> Protects against DNA Damage and Pre-Malignant Dysplastic Skin Lesions in HPV-Transgenic Mice

Some diet profiles are associated with the risk of developing cancer; however, some nutrients show protective effects. Porphyra umbilicalis is widely consumed, having a balanced nutritional profile; however, its potential for cancer chemopr...

Quantum computing applications for Internet of Things

Abstract The rapidly developing discipline of quantum computing (QC) employs ideas from quantum physics to improve the performance of traditional computers and other devices. Because of the dramatically improved speed at which it processes ...

Assessing the Microbial Quality of Shrimp (<i>Xiphonaeus kroyeri)</i> and Mussels (<i>Perna perna</i>) Illegally Sold in the Vitória Region, Brazil, and Investigating the Antimicrobial Resistance of <i>Escherichia coli</i> Isolates

The consumption of seafood is crucial for food security, but poor hygiene along the food production chain can result in low microbiological quality, posing significant risks for public health and seafood quality. Thus, this study aimed to a...

Cracking the code: AI’s role in mapping evidence syntheses to the United Nations sustainable development goals

Abstract Background Understanding the alignment and contributions of research to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) is essential for guiding global progress toward these critical targets. Several SDG mapping approach...
