The electrochemical oxidation (EO) of phenolic wastewaters mimicking olive oil mill effluents was carried out in a batch stirring reactor using Ti/IrO2 anodes, varying the nature (NaCl and Na2SO4) and electrolyte concentration (1.8-20 g L-1), current density (57-119 mA cm(-2)) and initial pH (3.4-9). Phenolic content (TPh) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removals were monitored as a function of a

Background: Neuronal calcium and ATP homeostasis is regulated through alterations in mitochondria fusion/fission events and anterograde and retrograde transport in neurons. Mitochondrial dynamics form an interactome that ultimately controls mitochondrial quality, quantity and metabolism. Our objective is to show that alterations in this interactome lead to point-of-no-return situations characteriz

Stochastic sampling of light transport paths is key to Monte Carlo forward rendering, and previous studies have led to mature techniques capable of drawing high-contribution light paths in complex scenes. These sampling techniques have also been applied to differentiable rendering.In this paper, we demonstrate that path sampling techniques developed for forward rendering can become inefficient for

Cooper-Knock et al. identify amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) risk variants within non-coding regulatory DNA linked to a known ALS gene, TBK1, but also CAV1 and CAV2. Disease-associated variants reduce CAV1/CAV2 expression and disrupt membrane lipid rafts with consequences for neurotrophic signaling. CAV1 coding sequence also contains ALS-associated mutations. © 2020 The Author(s) Amyotrophic l

Supply chain management and early involvement of suppliers into product development process is one of the key elements of concurrent engineering. Internet based Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) system can improve communication between customers and suppliers. In the case study is presented a communication model and configuration of the PLM system that supports a second tier system supplier in au

The NEWCOMERS project aims to explore how new clean energy communities (ECs) develop, under which polycentric settings ECs evolve and under what conditions such initiatives are suppressed. At a national level, the project will assess socio-economic, technical, institutional characteristics and actors supporting the emergence of new clean energy communities. In Deliverable 3.1. and 3.2. the nationa

Commensality (the act of eating together) is studied in a range of disciplines and often considered important for social communion, order, health and well-being, while simultaneously being understood as in decline (especially the family meal). However, such claims are also contested in various ways. In this paper, we discuss the expanding field of commensality research and critically reflect on th

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a chronic and often disabling disorder characterized by orthostatic intolerance with excessive heart rate increase without hypotension during upright posture. Patients often experience a constellation of other typical symptoms including fatigue, exercise intolerance and gastrointestinal distress. A typical patient with POTS is a female of child-b

Solar radiation plays a pivotal role in the energy balance at the Earth's surface, evaporation, snow melting, water requirements of plants, and hydrological control of catchments. In this work, performance of ERA-Interim (a reanalysis dataset) was examined to estimate solar radiation at Ahvaz, BandarAbbas, and Kermanshah weather stations representing the even spatial distribution over Iran using e

This thesis aims to expand on the fundamental knowledge of crystal growth, selectively focusing on the area of particle-seeded nanowire growth in the III-V materials system. The growth process is complex. It typically occurs via the vapor-liquid-solid method, wherein growth material is supplied in the vapor phase, but the solidification process occurs dynamically, layer by layer, via an intermedia

OBJECTIVE: To develop an index assessing the risks of low energy fractures (LEF) in patients prescribed antiepileptic drugs (AED) by exploring five previously suggested risk factors; age, gender, AED-type, epilepsy diagnosis and BMI.METHODS: In a population-based retrospective open cohort study we used real world data from the Electronic Health Register (EHR) in Region Kalmar County, Sweden. 23 20

Most developments in regenerative medicine have in common that there are many uncertainties and knowledge gaps. These features make the evaluation of long-term consequences of the available options difficult and have consequences for the ethical issues raised. This paper presents an overview of ethical issues raised in regenerative medicine, using as a starting point a list of stakeholders and theMost developments in regenerative medicine have in common that there are many uncertainties and knowledge gaps.

Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) of high density lipoproteins (HDLs) is essential for the transportation of cholesterol between peripheral tissues and the liver. However, specific mutations in ApoA-I of HDLs are responsible for a late-onset systemic amyloidosis, the pathological accumulation of protein fibrils in tissues and organs. Carriers of these mutations do not exhibit increased cardiovascular di

The invariant differential cross section of inclusive ω(782) meson production at midrapidity (| y| < 0.5) in pp collisions at s=7TeV was measured with the ALICE detector at the LHC over a transverse momentum range of 2
