Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The economic dimension of wastewater circularity has not received the attention that other dimensions have; as mentioned in this paper attempts to fill this research gap by studying the economic dimension, in order to estimate the net opportunity cost of a non-circular water industry.

TL;DR: The best wound healing activity was observed with the extract of Inula viscosa, followed by Parieteria diffusa, Laurus nobilis, Ajuga chia and the least active extract was that of Rubia taenifolia.

TL;DR: In the present study, a new series of 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-thiadiazole tethered 1,2, 4-triazole and Schiff base derivatives were synthesized and characterized by IR, 1H-N MR, 13C-NMR, MS and elemental analyses.
Abstract: In the present study, a new series of 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-thiadiazole tethered 1,2,4-triazole, 1,3,4-thiadiazole, 1,3,4-oxadiazole and Schiff base derivatives were synthesized and characterized by IR, ¹H-NMR, (13)C-NMR, MS and elemental analyses All compounds were screened for their antibacterial, antifungal and antiproliferative activity Some of the synthesized derivatives have displayed promising biological activity

TL;DR: It can be concluded that the selected aptamers can be used to target CD44 positive cells, including cancer stem cells, for detection, sorting, and enrichment and for drug delivery purposes.
Abstract: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a subset of tumor cells that has the ability to self-renew and to generate the diverse cells that comprise the tumor mass. The cell-surface glycoprotein CD44 is one of the most common surface markers used to identify CSCs. Aptamers are synthetic oligonucleotides selected from pools of random sequences that can bind to a wide range of targets with high affinity and specificity. In this study, the systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) technology was used to isolate RNA aptamers using human recombinant full-length CD44 protein and 2'-F-pyrimidine modified RNA library with a complexity of around 10(14) different molecules. Following 11 iterative rounds of SELEX, the selected aptamers were cloned and sequenced. Three different sequences were identified. The binding specificities for one of these RNA aptamers was assessed using representative breast cancer cell lines expressing CD44; namely, MDA-MB-231, MCF7, and T47D. The selected RNA aptamer (Apt1) was found to interact specifically with such cancer cells when analyzed by flow cytometry and fluorescent microscopy, with different intensities of fluorescence reflecting the level of CD44 expression on the surface of these cells. It can be concluded that the selected aptamers can be used to target CD44 positive cells, including cancer stem cells, for detection, sorting, and enrichment and for drug delivery purposes.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate various alcohol-unleaded gasoline mixtures that can be used with no modifications in a spark-ignition engine and demonstrate that ANN can be successfully used as an alternative type of modeling technique for internal combustion engines.
