TL;DR: In this article, the authors designed a nanocomposite of Si3N4 with trimetallic oxide nanoparticles of Ag, Mg and Fe (AgO/MgO/FeO@Si 3N4) for the tetracycline (TC) removal from aqueous solution.

TL;DR: The elevation of glucose utilization has been recognized as a hallmark of metabolic remodeling during cardiac hypertrophic growth under hemodynamic stress as mentioned in this paper, and it has been shown that metabolic remodeling precedes most alterations during cardiac hypertension.

TL;DR: A field investigation conducted at Palampur during the kharif seasons of 1994 and 1995, revealed that application of pretilachlor 0.80 kg/ha at seven days after sowing (DAS) controlled weeds effectively and increased grain and straw yields significantly over weedy check and other herbicide treatments as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: A field investigation, conducted at Palampur during the kharif seasons of 1994 and 1995, revealed that application of pretilachlor 0.80 kg/ha at seven days after sowing (DAS) controlled weeds effectively and increased grain and straw yields significantly over weedy check and other herbicide treatments (butachlor 1.50 kg/ha, butachlor 0.75 kg/ha and pretilachlor 0.40 kg/ha). Weeds, when allowed to grow uninterrupted with the crop, depleted 65.41, 9.6 and 66.21 kg/ha nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K), respectively. Use of herbicides increased nutrient uptake by rice and decreased nutrient uptake by weeds. Uptake of nutrients was higher by rice and lower by weeds with pretilachlor 0.80 kg/ha. Halod (interculture in standing rice crop) increased nutrient uptake by rice and decreased nutrient uptake by weeds significantly over no haold.

TL;DR: It is of utmost importance to strengthen ongoing efforts towards defining largely unknown genetic propensity in Indian population, particularly by recruitment of large cohorts of well categorized exposed uninfected individuals, rapid, long term non progressors and elite viraemic controllers.
Abstract: Variability to HIV infection, its progression as well as responsiveness to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is observed among individuals including viraemia controllers or exposed uninfected, rapid versus slow progressors and ART responders compared to non responders. This differential responsiveness/vulnerability to HIV-1 is governed by multiple host genetic factors that include HLA, cytokines, chemokines, their receptors and others. This review highlights the influence of these genetic factors on HIV/AIDS outcome; however, in India, the information in this area is very limited and most of these genetic studies have been conducted in Caucasian and South African populations. Considering, the population specific differences in the frequencies of protective or susceptibility favouring alleles and their influence on the disease outcome, it is of utmost importance to strengthen ongoing efforts towards defining largely unknown genetic propensity in Indian population, particularly by recruitment of large cohorts of well categorized exposed uninfected individuals, rapid, long term non progressors and elite viraemic controllers. Multi-parametric analysis of these potentially interactive immunogenetic variables in these cohorts may help to define potential targets for diagnostics and therapy in a population specific manner.

TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.
Abstract: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one. I remember first hearing about it at school. It seemed an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality. Usually familiarity dulls this sense of the bizarre, but in the case of i it was the reverse: over the years the sense of its surreal nature intensified. It seemed that it was impossible to write mathematics that described the real world in …

TL;DR: SPAdes as mentioned in this paper is a new assembler for both single-cell and standard (multicell) assembly, and demonstrate that it improves on the recently released E+V-SC assembler and on popular assemblers Velvet and SoapDeNovo (for multicell data).
Abstract: The lion's share of bacteria in various environments cannot be cloned in the laboratory and thus cannot be sequenced using existing technologies. A major goal of single-cell genomics is to complement gene-centric metagenomic data with whole-genome assemblies of uncultivated organisms. Assembly of single-cell data is challenging because of highly non-uniform read coverage as well as elevated levels of sequencing errors and chimeric reads. We describe SPAdes, a new assembler for both single-cell and standard (multicell) assembly, and demonstrate that it improves on the recently released E+V-SC assembler (specialized for single-cell data) and on popular assemblers Velvet and SoapDeNovo (for multicell data). SPAdes generates single-cell assemblies, providing information about genomes of uncultivatable bacteria that vastly exceeds what may be obtained via traditional metagenomics studies. SPAdes is available online ( http://bioinf.spbau.ru/spades ). It is distributed as open source software.
