Short-term effects of variable-density thinning on regeneration in hardwood-dominated temperate rainforests
(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2020-05)
Second-growth temperate forests usually have simpler composition and structure than comparable old-growth stands. We evaluated the application of variable density thinning (VDT) as a way to increase old-growth attributes, ...
Collateral Sprouting of Peripheral Sensory Neurons Exhibits a Unique Transcriptomic Profile
(Humana Press, 2020-10)
Peripheral nerve injuries result in motor and sensory dysfunction which can be recovered by compensatory or regenerative processes. In situations where axonal regeneration of injured neurons is hampered, compensation by ...
Shear transformation zones structure characterization in Cu50Zr50 metallic glasses under tensile test
(Elsevier, 2020-11)
The atomic structure of Cu50Zr50 metallic glasses under tensile test was investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. Voronoi polyhedra analysis was employed to calculate the number of neighbors for each atom, obtained ...
Simulation of the Reactivation of Partially Inactivated Biocatalysts in Sequential Batch Reactors
(MDPI AG, 2020-11)
The enzymatic reactivation process enables the recovery of catalytic activity for inactive biocatalysts. However, its effect on the specific productivity of the processes has not been studied. The main objective of this ...
Development and analytical validation of real-time PCR for the detection ofStreptococcus agalactiaein pregnant women
(BioMed Central Ltd., 2020-06)
Background Group BStreptococcus(GBS) is the leading cause of invasive neonatal infection. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the analytical validation of qualitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) as a means ...
Deciphering Additional Roles for the EF-Tu,l-Asparaginase II and OmpT Proteins of Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli
(MDPI AG, 2020-08)
Shiga toxin-producingEscherichia coli(STEC) causes outbreaks and sporadic cases of gastroenteritis. STEC O157:H7 is the most clinically relevant serotype in the world. The major virulence determinants of STEC O157:H7 are ...
Does the association between physical capability and mortality differ by deprivation? Findings from the UK Biobank population-based cohort study
(Routledge, 2020-12)
Background To investigate whether the excess risk of adverse health outcomes associated with a lower physical capability in adulthood differs by deprivation levels. Methods 279,030 participants from the UK Biobank were ...
Doped Poly(3-hexylthiophene) Coatings onto Chitosan: A Novel Approach for Developing a Bio-Based Flexible Electronic
(American Chemical Society, 2020-03)
Conductive and flexible bio-based materials consisting of chitosan films coated with conductive poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) were prepared. Thermal, optical, mechanical, morphological, wettability, and conductive properties ...
Differential Early Performance of Two Underplanted Hardwood Tree Species Following Restoration Treatments in High-Graded Temperate Rainforests
(MDPI AG, 2020-04)
Rauli (Nothofagus alpina (Poepp. & Endl.)) and Ulmo (Eucryphia cordifolia Cav.) are mid-tolerant tree species in the Coihue-Rauli-Tepa (ca. 0.55 mill ha) and Evergreen (ca. 4.1 mill ha) forest types in south-central Chile, ...
Decoding Gene Networks Modules That Explain the Recovery of Hymenoglossum cruentum Cav. After Extreme Desiccation
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020-05)
Hymenoglossum cruentum (Hymenophyllaceae) is a poikilohydric, homoiochlorophyllous desiccation-tolerant (DT) epiphyte fern. It can undergo fast and frequent dehydration-rehydration cycles. This fern is highly abundant at ...
