Παραγωγή δέρματος από τα πεταμένα φρούτα.
Δύο Ολλανδοί φοιτητές έχουν αναπτύξει μια μέθοδο μετατροπής των απούλητων πεταμένων φρούτων και λαχανικών σε "φρούτο- δέρμα". Ένα τεχνητό οικολογικό δέρμα το οποίο μπορεί να χρησιμοποιηθεί για την κατασκευή όλων των δερμάτινων προϊόντων, από τσάντες έως έπιπλα, και έχει την ίδια ποιότητα με το ζωικό δέρμα.Η ιδέα ξεκίνησε το 2015 όταν συνειδητοποίησαν την σπατάλη των φυσικών πόρων που αντίκρισαν στην πόλη τους με τα απούλητα φρούτα και λαχανικά που πεταγόντουσαν καθημερινά στις υπαίθριες αγορές και στα...

Testing the basic tenet of the molecular clock and neutral theory by using ancient proteomes [NEW RESULTS]
Early research on orthologous protein sequence comparisons by Margoliash in 1963 discovered the astonishing phenomenon of genetic equidistance, which has inspired the ad hoc interpretation known as the molecular clock. Kimura then developed the neutral theory and claimed the molecular clock as its best evidence. However, subsequent studies over the years have largely invalidated the universal molecular clock. Yet, a watered down version of the molecular clock and the neutral theory still reigns as...

Cryptococcal Antigenemia in HIV therapy-experienced Ugandans with Virologic Failure
AbstractBackgroundDetectable serum or plasma cryptococcal antigen (CrAg) precedes symptomatic cryptococcal meningitis. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends CrAg screening for HIV infected people with CD4<100 cells/mcL initiating antiretroviral therapy (ART). However, an increasing proportion of cryptococcosis patients are now ART-experienced. Whether CrAg screening is cost-effective in those with virologic failure is unknown.MethodsWe retrospectively performed nationwide plasma CrAg...

Superior Canal Dehiscence Similarly Affects Cochlear Pressures in Temporal Bones and Audiograms in Patients
Objectives: The diagnosis of superior canal dehiscence (SCD) is challenging and audiograms play an important role in raising clinical suspicion of SCD. The typical audiometric finding in SCD is the combination of increased air conduction (AC) thresholds and decreased bone conduction thresholds at low frequencies. However, this pattern is not always apparent in audiograms of patients with SCD, and some have hearing thresholds that are within the normal reference range despite subjective reports...

Evidence of a Vestibular Origin for Crossed-Sternocleidomastoid Muscle Responses to Air-Conducted Sound
Objectives: Small, excitatory surface potentials can sometimes be recorded from the contralateral sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) following monaural acoustic stimulation. Little is known about the physiological properties of these crossed reflexes. In this study, we sought the properties of crossed SCM responses and through comparison with other cochlear and vestibular myogenic potentials, their likely receptor origin.

Assembly and Subcellular Localization of Bacterial Type VI Secretion Systems
Bacteria need to deliver large molecules out of the cytosol to the extracellular space or even across membranes of neighboring cells to influence their environment, prevent predation, defeat competitors, or communicate. A variety of protein-secretion systems have evolved to make this process highly regulated and efficient. The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is one of the largest dynamic assemblies in gram-negative bacteria and allows for delivery of toxins into both bacterial and eukaryotic cells....
