Abstract Background The harlequin ladybird, Harmonia axyridis Pallas (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) is native to central and eastern Asia and was purposely introduced into Europe to control aphids.While it proved to be a good biological control agent, its rapid spread and buildup of large populations made it a nuisance, since it overwinters in homes,
Additive neuroprotective effects of a histone deacetylase inhibitor and a catalytic antioxidant in a transgenic mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
ALS is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder for which no effective treatment exists.Multiple molecular mechanisms are involved in the pathogenesis.We tested the catalytic antioxidant AEOL 10150, the histone deacetylase inhibitor phenylbutyrate (PBA), and the combination of PBA and AEOL 10150 in the G93A Coaxial Cable transgenic mouse model, adm
GLA PROTEINS – THE WARNING SIGN FOR THE BLOOD VESSELS
The aim Solenoid Assembly of the present work was to perform a critical analysis of the literature related to the role of the extrahepatic matrix Gla-protein (MGP) as an inhibitor of vascular calcification.Online databases PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, Science Direct, and Medline were thoroughly searched using key words such as Gla protein, Gla r
A comprehensive dataset for the evaluation of a horizontal tubular flocculator implemented for drinking water treatment
This article presents a set of data obtained during the evaluation of a horizontal flow tubular flocculator for the provision of drinking water in developing communities.The HFTF is presented as an alternative technology to replace conventional flocculators, allowing high efficiency in the subsequent sedimentation and filtration processes.For obtai
Preparation of NiCoFe electrodes for electrochemical deoxidation by one-step electrodeposition
Aiming at the Solenoid Assembly high cost and poor effect of catalytic materials for cathodic oxygen reduction reaction(ORR) in electrochemical deoxygenation, NiCoFe ternary alloy was efficiently prepared by electrodeposition under different current densities, and the morphology and structure of the alloy material were characterized and analyzed, w
