Chronic denervation is one of the key factors that affect nerve regeneration.Chronic axotomy deteriorates the distal nerve stump, causes protein changes, and renders the microenvironment less permissive for regeneration.Some of these factors/proteins have been individually studied.To better delineate the comprehensive protein expression profiles an
Membrane emulsification is a process of injecting a pure dispersed phase or pre-emulsion through a microporous membrane into the continuous phase.As a result of the immiscibility of the two phases, droplets of the dispersed phase are formed at the outlets of membrane pores.The droplets formed in the process are removed from the membrane surface by
With the development of industrialization and urbanization, heavy metal contamination in agricultural soils tends to accumulate rapidly and harm human health.Visible and near-infrared (Vis-NIR) spectroscopy provides the feasibility of fast monitoring of the variation of heavy metals.This study explored the potential of fractional-order derivative (
Psittacidae species are among the most threatened birds in the world.Approximately one-half of the 390 parrot species are experiencing Water Filtration Cartridges population declines.The Blue-fronted Amazon (Amazona aestiva) is the most traded parrot worldwide and suffers from poaching and habitat loss.Many species of parrots, including the Blue-fr
From an agricultural perspective, drought refers to an unusual deficiency of plant available water in the root-zone of the soil profile.This paper focuses on evaluating the benefit of assimilating soil moisture retrievals from the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) Andrographis mission into the USDA-FAS Palmer model for agricultural drought monito
