In this study, we use single-stranded DNA (oligo-dT) lattices that have been position-specifically labeled with monomer or dimer 2-aminopurine (2-AP) probes to map the local interactions of the DNA bases with the nucleic acid binding cleft of gp32, the single-stranded binding (ssb) protein of bacteriophage T4. Three complementary spectroscopic…[Lees meer]

Health coaching exerted a significant indirect effect on self-management through improvements in self-efficacy and patient activation.

The findings demonstrated that health coaching can effectively improve QOL and self-management. A health-coaching intervention can raise self-efficacy and activation levels through which self-management and…[Lees meer]

Development of new sources and isolation processes has recently enhanced the production of cellulose in many different colloidal states. Even though cellulose is widely used as a functional ingredient in the food industry, the relationship between the colloidal states of cellulose and its applications is mostly unknown. This review covers the…[Lees meer]

Many impoverished communities in South Africa (SA) simultaneously face multiple preventable socioenvironmental hazards associated with elevated burdens of ill health. One such hazard is failure to institute effective buffer zones between human settlements and point sources of pollution such as airports and industrial zones.

To gather…[Lees meer]

However, contrary to the pale yellow coloration of the [Pt(CN)4]2-/HAT(CN)6 systems, currently the dark violet or dark green coloration of solutions and crystalline phases were noted owing to the intense absorption in almost the whole visible region. DFT calculations reproduced the UV-Vis spectroscopic characteristics and linked it with the…[Lees meer]

Furthermore, by adjusting the size of the WGM microcavity structure naturally formed by the hexagonal MWs, particularly by adjusting the diameter of the wires, the exciton-polariton coupling strength in the single MW based LEDs can be tuned, with the as-extracted Rabi splitting energy varying in the range of 92-294 meV. The realization of a single…[Lees meer]

Prior radioembolization, a simulation using

Tc-macroaggregated albumin as

Y-microspheres surrogate is performed. Gamma scintigraphy images (planar, SPECT, or SPECT-CT) are acquired to evaluate intrahepatic

Y-microspheres distribution and detect possible extrahepatic and lung shunting. These images may be used for pre-treatment…[Lees meer]

Cerebral ischemia has led to a high rate of both disability and mortality with massive healthcare costs. Although transcriptional regulation is typically mediated by different combinations of TFs, a combined regulatory unit to synergistically activate transcription has remained unclear in cerebral ischemia, especially in different drug treatments.…[Lees meer]

Many computational methods have been recently proposed to identify differentially abundant microbes related to a single disease; however, few studies have focused on large-scale microbe-disease association prediction using existing experimentally verified associations. This area has critical meanings. For example, it can help to rank and select…[Lees meer]
