PRODUCTION OF MICRO- AND NANOFIBRILLATED CELLULOSE THROUGH AN AQUEOUS COUNTER COLLISION SYSTEM FOLLOWED BY ULTRASOUND: EFFECT OF MECHANICAL PRETREATMENTS

The purpose of this work was the production of cellulose micro-nanofibrils from wood pulps through a combination of mechanical treatments, including a recently patented process, a so-called aqueous counter collision (ACC) method followed by ultrasound treatment.Previously to ACC process, the raw pulp materials had to be downscaled to micro-sized di

BACKGROUND: DFR (different region) analysis has been developed for typing Yesinia pestis in our previous study, and in this study, we extended this method by using 23 DFRs to investigate 909 Chinese Y.pestis strains for validating DFR-based genotyping method Wrapping Papers and better understanding adaptive microevolution of Y.pestis.METHODOLOGY/PR

ABSTRACT The high global burden of cryptococcosis has made development of a protective vaccine a public health priority.We previously demonstrated that a vaccine composed Wrapping Papers of recombinant Cryptococcus neoformans chitin deacetylase 2 (Cda2) delivered in glucan particles (GPs) protects BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice from an otherwise lethal ch

Hibernation in turtle species is an adaptive survival strategy to colder winter conditions or food restrictions.However, the mechanisms underlying seasonal adaptions remain unclear.In the present study, we collected hemocytes from Pelochelys cantorii and compared PEANUT BUTTER PWD CHOCOLATE the molecular signature of these cells between the active

Human Centrifuge Systems (HCSs) are an effective training tool to improve the G-acceleration and Spatial Disorientation (SD) SWEATERSCREW tolerance of aircrew.Though highly capable HCSs are available, their structure and performance are yet to be fully optimised to efficiently recreate the G-vectors produced using Aircraft Combat Manoeuvres (ACMs).
