Nitrite represents one of the most typical contaminants in aqueous species. The research was conducted to evaluate impacts nitrite exposure on survival, gill morphology, hematological parameters, immune response, and meat flavor pearl gentian grouper. fish were exposed 0, 5, 10, 20 mg/L for 96 h (note: N-0, N-5, N-10, N-20 indicate concentrations mg/L, respectively). blood, gills, muscles colle...

The priming agent β-aminobutyric acid (BABA) is known to enhance Arabidopsis resistance to the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) DC3000 by potentiating salicylic acid (SA) defence signalling, notably PR1 expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain unknown. A genome-wide microarray analysis of BABA priming during Pst DC3000 infection revealed dir...

It is of great value to design and develop CoR (Catheter-operating Robot) that can substitute a physician to manipulate a catheter in robotic-assisted vascular surgery. In this paper, we designed a new two-fingered CoR to simulate the catheter manipulation by a surgeon with thumb and forefinger, where the rotation and twist motions of the robotic fingers can achieve the conventional push / pull...

This study aimed to investigate the effects of different water velocities on growth performance, blood physiology, and digestive capacity coral trout (Plectropomus leopardus) in a Recirculating aquaculture system (RAS). One hundred twenty healthy, uniformly sized (body mass (92.01 ± 8.04) g; body length (15.40 0.65) cm) were randomly assigned three flow velocity groups (1 bl/s, 2 2.5 bl/s) one ...

BACKGROUND Lateral offset center of rotation (COR) reduces the incidence of scapular notching and potentially increases external rotation range of motion (ROM) after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA). The purpose of this study was to determine the biomechanical effects of changing COR on abduction and external rotation ROM, deltoid abduction force, and joint stability. MATERIALS AND ...

BACKGROUND: Of the electrocardiographic changes in chronic obstructive lung disease (COLD) patients, a shift of the P wave axis greater than 90 which is highly characteristic, is said to be due to hyperinflation and does not occur in interstitial lung disease. OBJECTIVE : To describe the electrocardiographic changes in chronic obstructive lung disease patients. METHODS: The electrical axis of t...

Female, especially for pregnant female, are vulnerable to psychological stress. The morphology and metabolism of the maternal intestine both obviously changed during pregnancy, thus making intestinal health status more fragile under aim present study was investigate role CRH CRHR1 in stress, exploring mechanism stress intestine. Bama miniature pigs were divided into control restraint groups fro...

Performance of commercially available component resolved microarray has not been widely evaluated in food allergy. Nut allergy is a prevalent and increasing food allergy in which component resolved diagnosis is crucial. In the context of a multicentric study on pollen and vegetable food allergy in Spain, we enrolled patients (n=100) who had suffered at least two episodes of immediate symptoms a...

Coronatine (COR) is a plasmid-encoded phytotoxin synthesized by several pathovars of phytopathogenic Pseudomonas syringae. The COR biosynthetic gene cluster in P. syringae pv. glycinea PG4180 is encoded by a 32-kb region which contains both the structural and regulatory genes needed for COR synthesis. The regulatory region contains three genes: corP, corS, and corR. corS is thought to function ...
