Efforts to obtain non-intrusive measurement of deformations and spatial flow within soil mass prior to the advent of transparent soils have perceptible limitations.The transparent soil is a two-phase medium composed of both the synthetic aggregate and fluid components of identical refractive indices aiming at attaining transparency of the resulting
The landscape ecology of predation is well studied and known to be influenced by habitat heterogeneity.Little attention has been given to how the influence of habitat heterogeneity on the landscape ecology of predation might be modulated by life history dynamics of prey in mammalian systems.We demonstrate how life history dynamics of moose (Alces a
Staphylococcus aureus is a facultative intracellular pathogen of human macrophages, which facilitates chronic infection.The genotypes, pathways, and mutations influencing that phenotype remain incompletely explored.Here, we used two distinct strategies to ascertain S.aureus gene mutations affecting pathogenesis in macrophages.First, we analyzed iso
Abstract ATG9A is the only integral membrane protein among core autophagy-related (ATG) proteins.We previously found that read more ATG9A does not co-assemble into synaptophysin-positive vesicles, but rather, localizes to a distinct pool of vesicles within synapsin condensates in both fibroblasts and nerve terminals.The endocytic origin of these ve
The fuel sulfur content (FSC) of ocean-going and inland vessels was measured simultaneously by eight different state-of-the-art and novel monitoring systems during a 6-week campaign at the Elbe River, at a distance of about 10 km to the port of Hamburg, Germany.Both stationary and airborne systems here on unoccupied aerial vehicles (UAVs) were oper
