Leaf Soluble Sugars and Free Amino Acids as Important Components of Abscisic Acid-Mediated Drought Response in Tomato
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Water deficit has a global impact on plant growth and crop yield. Climate changes are going to increase the intensity, duration and frequency of severe droughts, particularly in southern and south-eastern Europe, elevating ...
Semiconductor Gas Sensors: Materials, Technology, Design, and Application
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
This paper presents an overview of semiconductor materials used in gas sensors, their technology, design, and application. Semiconductor materials include metal oxides, conducting polymers, carbon nanotubes, and 2D materials. ...
Assembly Processes under Severe Abiotic Filtering: Adaptation Mechanisms of Weed Vegetation to the Gradient of Soil Constraints
(Public Library Science, San Francisco, 2014)
Questions: Effects of soil on vegetation patterns are commonly obscured by other environmental factors; clear and general relationships are difficult to find. How would community assembly processes be affected by a substantial ...
A computational insight into acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity of a new lichen depsidone
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2015)
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors are yet the best drugs currently available for the management of Alzheimer's disease. The recent phytochemical investigation has led to the isolation of a new depsidone 1 with moderate ...
Pt nanoparticles on tin oxide based support as a beneficial catalyst for oxygen reduction in alkaline solutions
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2015)
A platinum nanocatalyst on Sb doped tin oxide support (Sb-SnO2) was synthesized and characterized as a catalyst for oxygen reduction reaction in 0.1 mol dm(-3) NaOH solution at 25 degrees C. Sb (5%) doped tin oxide support ...
Heavy Metal Accumulation and the Genotoxicity in Barbel (Barbus barbus) as Indicators of the Danube River Pollution
(Hindawi Ltd, London, 2012)
The aim of this study was to analyze 16 trace elements (Al, As, B, Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Li, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Sr, and Zn) in different barbel (Barbus barbus) tissues and to detect the presence of genotoxic effects in ...
Fluctuating vs. Continuous Exposure to H2O2: The Effects on Mitochondrial Membrane Potential, Intracellular Calcium, and NF-kappa B in Astroglia
(Public Library Science, San Francisco, 2013)
The effects of H2O2 are widely studied in cell cultures and other in vitro systems. However, such investigations are performed with the assumption that H2O2 concentration is constant, which may not properly reflect in vivo ...
Mitochondria-Targeted Antioxidants: Future Perspectives in Kidney Ischemia Reperfusion Injury
(Hindawi Ltd, London, 2016)
Kidney ischemia/reperfusion injury emerges in various clinical settings as a great problem complicating the course and outcome. Ischemia/reperfusion injury is still an unsolved puzzle with a great diversity of investigational ...
Further in vitro biological activity evaluation of amino-, thio- and ester-derivatives of avarol
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2015)
The acetylcholinesterase inhibitory and/or antitumour activities of amino-, thio-and ester-derivatives of avarol selected were evaluated for the first time at in vitro conditions. Avarol-3',4'-dithioglycol (1) and avarol-4'-(3) ...
The Effect of Alcohols on Red Blood Cell Mechanical Properties and Membrane Fluidity Depends on Their Molecular Size
(Public Library Science, San Francisco, 2013)
The role of membrane fluidity in determining red blood cell (RBC) deformability has been suggested by a number of studies. The present investigation evaluated alterations of RBC membrane fluidity, deformability and stability ...
