Crystal nucleation and growth are first order processes captured in volcanic rocks and record important information about the rates of magmatic processes and chemical evolution of magmas during their ascent and eruption.We have studied glass-rich andesitic tephras from the Central Plateau of the Southern Taupo Volcanic Zone by electron- and ion-mic

The highly proliferative and pluripotent characteristics of embryonic stem cells engender great promise for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, but the rapid identification VANILLA ICE CREAM and isolation of target cell phenotypes remains challenging.Therefore, the objectives of this study were to characterize cell mechanics as a function

Research on stingless bee products has increased in recent years, and of particular interest is propolis because of its biological activities such as antioxidant and antimicrobial.However, there is paucity of information regarding intra-hive variations in the biochemical composition and biofunctional properties of this propolis.In this study, we in

This essay begins by surveying our current moment in the humanities, diagnosing the language of crisis that frames much of the discourse about them.It argues that the crisis is a manufactured economic one not a symbolic one.The problems with many recent proposals—such as the new aestheticism, surface reading, and postcritique—is that Or

In this study, we identify a novel two-component system in Acinetobacter baumannii (herein named AmsSR for regulator of alternative metabolic systems) only present in select gammaproteobacterial and betaproteobacterial Jacket species.Bioinformatic analysis revealed that the histidine kinase, AmsS, contains 14 predicted N-terminal transmembrane doma
