Identification of reference genes for real-time PCR cytokine gene expression studies in sheep experimentally infected with Fasciola hepatica
(Nature.com, 2019)
The aim of this study was to validate reference genes for gene normalisation using qRT-PCR in hepatic lymph nodes (HLN) and livers from sheep infected with Fasciola hepatica during early and late stages of infection. To ...
Novel Applications of Microbial Fuel Cells in Sensors and Biosensors
(MDPI, 2018-07-20)
A microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a type of bio-electrochemical system with novel features, such as electricity generation, wastewater treatment, and biosensor applications. In recent years, progressive trends in MFC research ...
Heterogeneously Catalyzed Synthesis of Imidazolones via Cycloisomerizations of Propargylic Ureas Using Ag and Au/Al SBA-15 Systems
(ACS, 2019)
The synthesis of imidazolones through the cycloisomerization of ureas, specifically propargylureas, has gained attention due to the large availability of starting materials. However, this type of synthesis normally requires ...
Comparison between Snow Albedo Obtained from Landsat TM, ETM+ Imagery and the SPOT VEGETATION Albedo Product in a Mediterranean Mountainous Site
(MDPI, 2016)
Albedo plays an important role in snow evolution modeling quantifying the amount of solar
radiation absorbed and reflected by the snowpack, especially in mid-latitude regions with semiarid
conditions. Satellite remote ...
A Low-Cost IoT-Based System to Monitor the Location of a Whole Herd
(MDPI, 2019)
Animal location technologies have evolved considerably in the last 60 years. Nowadays, animal tracking solutions based on global positioning systems (GPS) are commercially available. However, existing devices have several ...
Facile mechanochemical modification of g-C3N4 for selective photo-oxidation of benzyl alcohol
(2019)
Graphitic carbon nitride enriched with ZnO or Fe2O3 were synthesized using a simple one-pot mechanochemical method. By using this method, composite samples were synthetized without the production of any potentially hazardous ...
Continuous flow conversion of biomass-derived methyl levulinate into gamma valerolactone using functional metal organic frameworks
(2019)
Zirconium based metal organic framework, UiO-66 (Zr), was successfully synthesized via solvothermal method, followed by various characterization including XRD, thermal analysis, N2 physisorption and TEM. As-synthesized ...
Towards industrial furfural conversion: selectivity and stability of palladium and platinum catalysts under continuous flow regime
(2019)
Furfural is an important biorefinery platform chemical, derived from hemicelluloses which represent an import fraction of lignocellulosic biomass feedstocks and waste streams originating from them. Recently, promising ...
