Tailoring thermomechanical treatment of Ni-Fe-Ga melt-spun ribbons for elastocaloric applications
(Elsevier, 2019)"In the present work, the structural, mechanical and shape memory properties of Ni55Fe16Ga29 (at.%) melt-spun ribbons have been studied with a prospective of application in the elastocaloric devises. Particularly, a special ... -
Modified metallic oxides for efficient photocatalysis
(IntechOpen, 2018)"The aim of the chapter is to present modified materials like alternatives for conventional photocatalyst such as titanium dioxide. Discussion about silver/graphene nanoparticles-modified zinc oxide for the degradation of ... -
Oxygenated surface of carbon nanotube sponges: electroactivity and magnetic studies
(American Chemical Society, 2019)"We report the synthesis of nitrogen-doped carbon nanotube sponges (N-CNSs) by pyrolysis of solutions of benzylamine, ferrocene, thiophene, and isopropanol-based mixture at 1020 degrees C for 4 h using an aerosol-assisted ... -
Modulation of Caecal Microbiome in Obese Mice Associated with Administration of Amaranth or Soybean Protein Isolates
(Institute of Animal Reproduction and Food Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences, 2019)"Obesity is defined as abnormal or excessive body fat accumulation that may have negative effects on health. Healthy diet induces a balance of gut microbiota, helping in turn to combat this metabolic disorder. Amaranth is ... -
Sequence analysis and confirmation of the type IV pili-associated proteins PilY1, PilW and PilV in Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans
(Public Library of Science, 2019)"Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans is an acidophilic chemolithoautotrophic bacterium widely used in the mining industry due to its metabolic sulfur-oxidizing capability. The biooxidation of sulfide minerals is enhanced through ... -
PEST sequences from a cactus dehydrin regulate its proteolytic degradation
(PeerJ, Inc, 2019)"Dehydrins (DHNs) are intrinsically disordered proteins expressed under cellular dehydration-related stresses. In this study, we identified potential proteolytic PEST sequences located at the central and C-terminal regions ... -
Unraveling the photoactive annihilation mechanism of nanostructures as effective green tools for inhibiting the proliferation of the phytopathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019)"The infectious proliferation of phytopathogenic microorganisms depends on a complex sequence of biological events involving host defense, environmental conditions, and chemical and physical interactions between the surface ... -
Silencing of OCH1 unveils the role of Sporothrix schenckii N-linked glycans during the host-fungus interaction
(Dove Press Ltd, 2019)"Background: Sporothrix schenckii is a neglected fungal pathogen for the human being and other mammals. In several fungal systems, Och1 is a Golgi alpha 1,6-mannosyltransferase with a key function in the synthesis of ... -
Genome-Wide Identification of Mango (Mangifera indica L.) Polygalacturonases: Expression Analysis of Family Members and Total Enzyme Activity During Fruit Ripening
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019)"Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is an important commercial fruit that shows a noticeable loss of firmness during ripening. Polygalacturonase (PG, E.C. 3.2.1.15) is a crucial enzyme for cell wall loosening during fruit ripening ... -
Trichoderma as a Model to Study Effector-Like Molecules
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019)"Plants are capable of perceiving microorganisms by coordinating processes to establish different forms of plant-microbe relationships. Plant colonization is governed in fungal and bacterial systems by secreted effector ... -
Protein analysis reveals differential accumulation of late embryogenesis abundant and storage proteins in seeds of wild and cultivated amaranth species
(BMC, 2019)"Background Amaranth is a plant naturally resistant to various types of stresses that produces seeds of excellent nutritional quality, so amaranth is a promising system for food production. Amaranth wild relatives have ... -
A Lineage of Begomoviruses Encode Rep and AC4 Proteins of Enigmatic Ancestry: Hints on the Evolution of Geminiviruses in the New World
(MDPI, 2019)"The begomoviruses (BGVs) are plant pathogens that evolved in the Old World during the Cretaceous and arrived to the New World (NW) in the Cenozoic era. A subgroup of NW BGVs, the "Squash leaf curl virus (SLCV) lineage" ... -
