Due to the oligotrophic marine environment, the lack of phosphorus is one of the key factors limiting the oil biodegradation ability of microorganisms after the oil spill occurs. Overcoming phosphorus deficiency has become an urgent problem. In this study, a phosphate-solubilizing bacteria, named Bacillus subtilis PSB-1, with the crude oil degradation eff ...

Water droplet erosion (WDE) is a critical degradation phenomenon that significantly affects component lifespan and performance in power generation, aerospace, and wind energy industries. The incubation period-the initial phase before visible material loss occurs-is particularly crucial for maintenance planning and material selection yet remains challengin ...

The textile industry causes lots of pollution due to its discharge of untreated coloured effluents into water bodies, impacting the environment. The present study includes a slow pyrolysis technique to produce magnetic biochar derived from waste areca nut husk (ANH)) biomass to adsorb methylene b ...

This paper introduces an innovative design and analysis of a magneto-electric dipole antenna exhibiting high-gain, ultra-wideband operation, and stable radiation characteristics in the 60-GHz mm-wave band. Furthermore, the trapped printed gap waveguide (TPGW) technology is presented as a low-cost, minimal-loss, and low-dispersion guiding structure to feed ...

White matter hyperintensities (WMHs) are neuroimaging markers widely interpreted as caused by cerebral small vessel disease, yet emerging evidence suggests that a subset may have a neurodegenerative etiology. Current imaging methods have lacked the specificity to disentangle biological processes ...

The Government of Canada, through the COVID-19 Immunity Task Force (CITF), supported over 100 serosurveillance studies during the COVID-19 pandemic, building and strengthening the technical infrastructure necessary for a national serosurveillance network. The value of such a network extends beyon ...

The moderating roles of friendship and contextual variables on associations between social withdrawal and peer exclusion and growth curves of depressed affect were studied with a three-wave multilevel longitudinal design. Participants were 313 boys and girls aged 10-12 from Canada (n = 139), mostly of European and North African descent, and Colombia (n = ...

Whole-genome duplication (WGD) events are common across various organisms; however, the retention and evolution of WGD paralogs is not fully understood. Quantitative measure of protein redistribution in response to the deletion of their WGD paralog provides insight into sources of gene retention. ...

Gene duplication is common across the Tree of Life and contributes to genomic robustness. In this study, we examined changes in the subcellular localization and abundance of proteins in response to the deletion of their paralogs originating from the whole-genome duplication event, which is a larg ...
