Soft rot is a severe bacterial disease of potatoes, and soft rot infection can cause significant economic losses during the Baking Powder storage period of potatoes.In this study, potato soft rot was selected as the research object, and a type of potato tuber soft rot disease early detection method based on the electronic nose technology was propos
Resilience and hopelessness mediate the relationship between benevolent childhood experiences and life satisfaction: evidence from a cross-cultural study
Abstract Background A growing body of literature focuses on the role of benevolent childhood experiences (BCEs) in predicting adulthood well-being, in addition to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs).However, cross-cultural differences are generally ignored in this endeavor.Hence, this study aimed to explore the role of BCEs in predicting life sati
Potential Effect of Statins on Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection
Tuberculosis is one of the 10 leading causes of death in the world.The current treatment is based on a combination of antimicrobials administered for six months.It is essential to find therapeutic agents with which the treatment time can be shortened and strengthen the host immune response against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.M.tuberculosis needs cho
Introducing field evaporation energy loss spectroscopy
Abstract Retrieving information on the chemical and bonding states of atoms in a material in three-dimensions is challenging even for the most advanced imaging techniques.Here, we demonstrate that this information is accessible via straight-flight-path Packs and Bags atom probe tomography experimental data, however it requires additional processing
Functional analysis of the interdependence between DNA uptake sequence and its cognate ComP receptor during natural transformation in Neisseria species.
Natural transformation is the widespread biological process by which "competent" bacteria take up free DNA, incorporate it into their genomes, and become genetically altered or "transformed".To curb often deleterious transformation by foreign DNA, several competent species preferentially take up their own DNA that contains specific DUS (DNA uptake
