Sorting endosomes and the endocytic recycling compartment are critical intracellular stores for the rapid recycling of internalized membrane receptors to the cell surface in multiple cell types. However, the molecular mechanisms distinguishing fast receptor recycling from sorting endosomes and slow receptor recycling from the endocytic recycling compartment remain poorly understood. We previous...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the profitability of hatchery litter recycling into poultry feedstuff supplement. The data were collected in 2011 in 4 provinces, by direct interviewing of all hatcheries which used the hatchery litter drying machine. Net Present Value (NPV), Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR), and Internal Rate of Return (IRR) methods were applied for this analysis. In the studi...

Recycling reduces the pollution associated with manufacturing new products, and also decreases the amount of money spent on landfills and acquiring raw materials. Despite the environmental and economic benefits, there is currently no legislation regulating recycling practices; it is up to individual towns to develop and enforce their recycling programs. This study examines factors affecting mun...

Recycling has been touted as an important part of the solution to solid waste problems, yet most citizens still do not recycle, even when recycling is made easy by curbside pickups. This field experiment was designed to increase participation in a citysponsored curbside recycling program. Citizens who consistently recycled with the city program were approached and asked to be "recycling block l...

The proportion of plastic bottles that consumers placed in appropriate recycling receptacles rather than trash bins was examined across 3 buildings on a university campus. We extended previous research on interventions to increase recycling by controlling the number of recycling receptacles across conditions and by examining receptacle location without the use of posted signs. Manipulating the ...

The study is devoted to the analysis of state waste generation in Russia and European Union countries. volumes recycling EU countries have been assessed. tendency increase volume generated from production consumption has revealed. Most industrial waste, but solid household by population also continues increase. main method disposal landfill, while global trends focus on reuse. Despite decreasin...

This paper describes the development, implementation, and evaluation of a pilot recycling campaign. The goal of the campaign was to increase people's awareness and knowledge about recycling and the link between a healthy environment and the public's health. A total of 258 individuals attended campaign week events and completed an initial survey. Results identified inconvenience of recycling fac...
