Current construction developments are trending towards more sustainable practices with greener alternative materials such as geopolymers.Geopolymers are a class of cementitious materials based on inorganic polymers, which are promising substitutes for ordinary Cloth Dripper Portland cement (OPC).However, studies have shown that geopolymers are more
Four temporin-derived peptides exhibit antimicrobial and antibiofilm activities against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
Temporin-GHa (GHa) was cloned from Hylarana guentheri, showing a weak antimicrobial activity.In order to improve its bactericidal efficacy, GHaR6R, GHaR7R, GHaR8R and GHaR9W were designed and synthesized.Compared to the parent peptide, the GHa-derived peptides show potent Serving Board antimicrobial activities against methicillin-resistant Staphylo
17q23.2q23.3 de novo duplication in association with speech and language disorder, learning difficulties, incoordination, motor skill impairment, and behavioral disturbances: a case report
Abstract Background Chromosomal rearrangements involving 17q23 have been described rarely.Deletions at 17q23.1q23.2 have been reported in individuals with developmental delay and growth retardation, whereas duplications at 17q23.1q23.2 appear to segregate with clubfoot.Dosage alterations in the TBX2 and TBX4 genes, located in 17q23.2, have been pro
Longitudinal single-subject neuroimaging study reveals effects of daily environmental, physiological, and lifestyle factors on functional brain connectivity.
Our behavior and mental states are constantly shaped by our environment and experiences.However, little is known about the response of brain functional connectivity to environmental, physiological, and behavioral changes on different timescales, from days to months.This gives rise to an urgent need for longitudinal studies that collect high-frequen
