to study molecular evolutionary characteristics and genetics of beet necrotic yellow vein virus (bnyvv) isolates population from iran, nucleotide sequences of p25 and coat protein (cp) were determined and the amino acids sequences thus deduced were analyzed using phylogenetic and population genetics methods. a survey of bnyvv in iran indicated the infection of 288 collected samples out of 392 s...

The acquired pH-responsive and reversible enrichment of organic dyes from aqueous solutions by peroxide modified ultrathin nanosheets of anatase and TiO(2)(B) is illustrated in comparison with P25 and TiO(2)(B) nanowires.

Highly-monodispersed g-C3N4/TiO2 hybrids with a core/shell structure were synthesized from a simple room temperature impregnation method, in which g-C3N4 was coated through self-assembly on the commercially available Degussa P25 TiO2 nanoparticles. Structural and surface characterizations showed that the presence of g-C3N4 notably affected the light absorption characteristics of TiO2. The g-C3N...

We have studied the effects of a single i.v. dose of sufentanil 5 micrograms kg-1 in combination with pancuronium on the median nerve short latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP) in 15 unpremedicated patients undergoing thoracic or lumbar spinal surgery. The latency and amplitude of the SSEP response over the second cervical vertebra (SC) and sensory cortex (P17, N20, P25), heart rate a...

Rapidly cycling proteins of the early secretory pathway can operate as cargo receptors. Known cargo receptors are abundant proteins, but it remains mysterious why their inactivation leads to rather limited secretion phenotypes. Studies of Surf4, the human orthologue of the yeast cargo receptor Erv29p, now reveal a novel function of cargo receptors. Surf4 was found to interact with endoplasmic r...

The present study examined the effects of a free radical scavenger, N-tert-butyl-alfa-phenylnitrone (PBN) on lithium-pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus (SE) and its short-term consequences in rats 12 (P12) or 25 (P25) days old. PBN (2 x 100 mg/kg i.p.) was injected according to the following schedules: 1) PBN-pretreated animals received the first dose 30 min prior to pilocarpine, the second...

Altered glutamatergic and dopaminergic signaling has been proposed as contributing to the specific striatal cell death observed in Huntington's disease (HD). However, the precise mechanisms by which mutant huntingtin sensitize striatal cells to dopamine and glutamate inputs remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate in knock-in HD striatal cells that mutant huntingtin enhances dopamine-mediated stria...

A sample of mesoporous TiO2 (MT, specific surface area = 150 m2·g−1) and two samples of MT containing 2.5 wt.% Fe were prepared by either direct synthesis doping (Fe2.5-MTd) or impregnation (Fe2.5-MTi). Commercial TiO2 (Degussa P25, specific surface area = 56 m2·g−1) was used both as a benchmark and as a support for impregnation with either 0.8 or 2.5 wt.% Fe (Fe0.80-IT and Fe2.5-IT). The powde...

Currently, Degussa P25, with the typical mixed phases of anatase and rutile TiO2, is widely applied as the commercial photocatalysts. However, there are still some of obstacles for the P25 nanoparticles with totally high photocatalytic activities, especially for the catalytic stability due to their inevitable aggregation of the nanoparticles when used as the photocatalysts. In the present work,...
