Small molecules capable of eradicating non-replicating bacterial biofilms are of great importance to human health as conventional antibiotics are ineffective against these surface-attached bacterial communities. Here, we report the discovery of several halogenated quinolines (HQs) identified through a reductive amination reaction that demonstrated potent eradication of MRSA (HQ-6; MBEC = 125 μM...

We investigate the performance of a hybrid Q-switched (HQS) fiber laser that is constructed with a low RF-power driven acousto-optic (AO) Q-switch and an AlGaInAs semiconductor saturable absorber. Compared to a pure passively Q-switched (PQS) fiber laser, the ratio of timing jitter to pulse period can be significantly reduced from 2% to 0.3% in the regime of far above threshold. On the other ha...

We consider the form factors for radiative semileptonic decays $\bar{B}(v) \rightarrow D^{(*)}(v') \ell {\bar \nu}_\ell \gamma$ in kinematic region where photon momentum, $k$, is small enough that heavy quark symmetry (HQS) can be applied without radiated changing velocity (i.e., $v^{(\prime)} \cdot k < m_{(b,c)}$). find HQS remarkably powerful, leaving only four new undetermined at leading ord...

Nas sociedades ocidentais, tanto os corpos como as sexualidades das mulheres, foram durante muito tempo representados de modos idealizados e baseados nos valores uma sociedade patriarcal, isso se refletiu, também nas histórias em quadrinhos (HQs). Porém, a pesquisa desenvolve hipótese que estão acontecendo importantes reinvenções dos sentidos atribuídos aos às associadas ao feminino no campo HQ...

Há muito tempo os desenhos estão presentes na história da humanidade para trazer informações e retratar a história. Com as Histórias em Quadrinhos não seria diferente já que esse meio de comunicação massa tem atribuído si, tanto quanto texto um formato dinâmico facilita leitura, diminui tensão estimula vários aspectos aprendizagem. As HQs como ferramenta pedagógica apresentam grande potencial s...

A study was conducted to standardize production and postharvest handling of lily (Lilium longifolium L. cv. Mero Star). In production trial, three plant densities viz.10, 20 and 30 cm between plants in 60 cm spaced rows and two planting depths viz.7.5 and 15 cm were compared. Increased plant growth, yield and quality was recorded when plants were grown at a close spacing of 10 cm with 15 cm pla...

The propagation of heavy quarks (HQs) in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is described by means a full Boltzmann transport approach. nonperturbative dynamics and interaction between HQs bulk taken into account Quasi-Particle Model. Including intense electromagnetic vortical fields, we discuss their impact on directed flow neutral D mesons at RHIC energy, clarifying role this observable giving infor...

As histórias em quadrinhos (HQs) são ferramentas utilizadas para narrar por meio de figuras e pequenos textos forma balões prática divertida. Nessa perspectiva, este trabalho tem como objetivo principal relatar as práticas atividades desenvolvidas um minicurso com alunos do Ensino Fundamental uma escola pública no município Santana Araguaia – PA, online. Utilizamos metodologia pesquisa a aborda...

The U.S. Department of the Interior recently included uranium (U) on a list mineral commodities that are considered critical to economic and national security. uses U for commercial residential energy production, defense applications, medical device technologies, generation space vehicles satellites known, but environmental impacts extraction not always well quantified. We conducted screening-l...
