Invading pathogens provoke the autophagic machinery and, in a process termed xenophagy, the host cell survives because autophagy is employed as a safeguard for pathogens that escaped phagosomes. However, some pathogens can manipulate the autophagic pathway and replicate within the niche of generated autophagosome-like vesicles. By automated fluorescence-based high content analyses, we demonstra...

Anionic surfactants are the most widely exploited chemical surfactants, which are being incorporated into majority of detergents and cleaning products used for household and industrial applications. Linear alkylbenzene sulfonates (LAS) is one of the major xenobiotic anionic surfactants. Biodegradation is an effective process to reduce the amount of surfactants released in the environment. In th...

Abstract: This study investigated the effects of different fiber contents by volume (0%, 1%, 2%, and 3%) on flowability, entrapped air content, and compressive and flexural strength of ultra high performance concrete (UHPC). Four water-to-binder ratios (0.18, 0.20, 0.22, 0.24) were used and four different dosages of superplasticizer were introduced for preparing each water-to-binder ratio mixtu...

Objective: A field experiment was conducted at Dorud region, Iran, during 2013. The aim of this research  was study on effect of different biofertilizers and irrigation closed time on some agronomic characteristics of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.). Methods: The experimental design was factorial based on RCBD with three replications. Treatments were three irrigation closed time [Oct-6 (...

The VALUEWASTE project can offer a sustainable solution to transform biowaste into added-value bioproducts, such as proteins from microorganisms and insects biofertilizers. present study focused on the environmental impacts linked obtaining these which was performed by standardized Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach, using Environmental Footprint methodology evaluate midpoint impact categorie...

Recently, there has been increasing concern about reducing and replacing chemical fertilizers with biofertilizers to enhance soil fertility maintain agroecosystems sustainable agricultural production. Given that knowledge of is information-intensive, the lack information-seeking behavior (ISB) might be primary constraint for farmers adopting biofertilizers. This study aimed analyze how ISB infl...
