TL;DR: Evidence reviewed here corroborates the hypothesis that several MFS-MDR transporters might have a natural substrate and that drug transport might occur only fortuitously or opportunistically, and extrapolation of the gathered knowledge on the MDR phenomenon in yeast to pathogenic fungi and higher eukaryotes is discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a modified friction factor was introduced to investigate the effect of the hydrodynamic conditions in the channel on the shear stress at the walls, and the experimental results showed that the transition between laminar and transitional flow regime could be rigorously determined for the spacers under study.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a ladder-type spacers with inter-filament distances/channel height ratios (L f ) of 1.9, 3.8, and 5.7 to visualize the flow in a nanofiltration/reverse osmosis (RO) spiral wound module.

TL;DR: Mechanisms that lead to solvent tolerance of microbes and accompanying specific antibiotic resistance are reviewed.

TL;DR: The need to use specific organic solvents combined with supporting electrolytes is one of the main limitations to make the electrochemical process more economically feasible when compared to nonelectrochemical processes as mentioned in this paper.
