Ammonia oxidation plays a significant role in the nitrogen cycle in marine sediments. Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB) are the key contributors to ammonia oxidation, and their relative contribution to this process is one of the most important issues related to the nitrogen cycle in ...
Bacterial resistance is a major clinical problem, which is compounded by both a lack of new antibiotics and emergence of multi- and extremely-drug resistant microbes. In this context, non-toxic nanoparticles could play an important role in conferring protection against bacterial infections and in this ...
Marine microalgae are considered a potentially new and valuable source of biologically active compounds for applications in several biotechnology sectors. They can be easily cultured, have short generation times and enable an environmentally-friendly approach to drug discovery by overcoming problems ...
This survey aimed to evaluate the applicability of the Nordic Occupational Skin Questionnaire (NOSQ) as a preliminary screening tool to investigate the presence of contact dermatological disorders in sea fishermen. The Italian version of the NOSQ was administered to 143 male fishermen working at an ...
The underwater is a crucial area, particularly for commercial divers. The duration and complexity of diver's work, makes it extremely life threatening. This issue is often disregarded since the applications used in it are extremely restricted. To reduce exposure to hazards, this paper investigates the ...
Drag reduction by ribbed surfaces is a potentially effective strategy for reducing the energy consumption of ships. However, complicated by possible marine biofouling, it is meaningless to consider the isolated effect of drag reduction of riblets. There is a strong correlation between drag reduction ...
The evaluation procedure is an important step for the ship hull plates automatic processing, which serves as a basis for secondary processing. In this paper, an evaluation method was proposed, based on the experienced workers' knowledge. The design surface and the measured surface were registered by ...
In both social systems and ecosystems there is a need to resolve potential conflicts between the interests of individuals and the collective interest of the community. The collective interests need to survive the turbulent dynamics of social and ecological interactions. To see how different systems ...
With the development of our country's economy and the building of a New Socialist Countryside, the function of agriculture continues to expand and the connotation is constantly enriched. It provides a good opportunity to promote the development of leisure agriculture. This article is based on the application ...
Resilience is a rehashed concept in natural hazard management - resilience of cities to earthquakes, to floods, to fire, etc. In a word, a system is said to be resilient if there exists a strategy that can drive the system state back to "normal" after any perturbation. What formal flesh can we put on ...
Rare species across taxonomic groups and biomes commonly suffer from multiple threats and require intensive restoration, including population reintroduction and threat control. Following reintroduction, it is necessary to identify what level of threat control is needed for species to persist over time. ...
Kwan Phayao is a lake located in Phayao province. It is the most attractive lake and the largest fisheries of the upper northern Thailand. Phayao province is a city with historical significance since there is the discovery of numerous stone inscriptions. In order to support social location and mobile ...
Aim: The aim of the current study was to isolate and identify naturally occurring probiotic Lactobacillus species in different animals with the different environmental background including fish, and farm animals to investigate interspecies differences in probiotics on the species level. Materials ...
Heavy metals represent the fourth most often notified hazard category in the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASFF) from 1980–2016. The goal of the study was to examine the similarities in notifications of particular heavy metals within the RASFF year, product category, notifying country, country ...
UK Biobank is an open access prospective cohort of 500 000 men and women. Information on the frequency of consumption of main foods was collected at recruitment with a touchscreen questionnaire; prior to examining the associations between diet and disease, it is essential to evaluate the performance ...
Multiplex serological immunoassays, such as implemented on microarray or microsphere-based platforms, provide greater information content and higher throughput, while lowering the cost and blood volume required. These features are particularly attractive in pediatric food allergy testing to facilitate ...
For the past several decades, Norwegian shipyards have focused on innovative, customized, and technologically advanced ships, often serving the offshore oil and gas industry. Usually, a significant part of the ship production is offshored, especially steel-related tasks. That is, such tasks are carried ...
Potential of Hydrogen (pH) level is one of the main characteristics of any chemical solution. It plays a significant role in chemistry, pharmacy, medicine, agriculture, fish farming, and industries. Lately, Internet of Things (IoT) appears as a new era of research and applications. IoT is designed to ...
(1) Background: Remote communities in Canada lack an equitable emergency medical response capacity compared to other communities. Community-based emergency care (CBEC) training for laypeople is a model that has the potential to enhance the medical emergency response capacity in isolated and resource-limited ...
Background Humans are exposed to poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) from diverse sources and this has been associated with negative health impacts. Advances in analytical methods have enabled routine detection of more than 15 PFASs in human sera, allowing better profiling of PFAS exposures. ...
