Bacteria are rapidly killed on copper surfaces. However, the mechanism of this process remains unclear. Using Enterococcus hirae, the effect of inactivation of copper homeostatic genes and of medium compositions on survival and copper dissolution was tested. The results support a role for dissolved copper ions in killing.

For socially monogamous species, breeder bond dissolution has important consequences for population dynamics, but the extent to which extrinsic or intrinsic population factors causes pair dissolution remain poorly understood, especially among carnivores. Using an extensive life-history data set, a survival analysis and competing risks framework, we examined the fate of 153 different wolf (Canis...

A new binary polymer matrix tablet for oral administration was developed. The system will deliver drug at variable rates according to zero-order kinetics for total drug content and is manufactured by direct compression technology. Highly methoxylated pectin and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) at different ratios were used as major formulation components, and prednisolone was used as the dr...

Herein we report the dissolution mechanism of lignin in cholinium-based ionic liquids by molecular dynamics simulations. Multiple hydrogen bonds, longer HB lifetimes, and higher p K a [Ch][Lys] makes it better solvent for than acidic ILs.

Clarithromycin (CLA), a broad-spectrum macrolide, is a poorly soluble drug with dissolution rate limited absorption. The aim of this investigation was to prepare CLA nanoparticles from a ternary ground mixture in the presence of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as co-grinding water-soluble compounds, in order to improve the drug dissolution rate. Different weight rati...

A high density of local natural and human-induced ground deformation 11 structures resulting from the presence of evaporites occur extensively 12 around Zaragoza (NE Spain), posing risks to infrastructures, buildings and 13 agriculture. We studied the potential of a series of interferograms 14 constructed from 29 ERS -1/2 images to detect different types of ground 15 deformation related to evap...

This article reports an experimental and theoretical investigation of mercury dissolution from dental amalgams immersed in neutral (noncorrosive) and acidic (corrosive) flows. Atomic absorption spectrophotometric measurements of Hg loss indicate that in neutral flow, surface oxide films formed in air prior to immersion persist and effectively suppress significant mercury release. In acidic (pH ...

The present work addresses a new finding observed while performing aluminum dissolution experiments for supercapacitors (SCs) stability investigation. Supercapacitor (SC) electrodes based on carbon-coated foils are electrochemically cycled in harsh conditions into bis-trifluoromethylsulfonyl imide (TFSI)-based electrolyte and using Acetonitrile (ACN) as solvent. Dissolution of is with subsequen...
