Assassination, as an extreme form of political violence, is documented by historians as occurring ever since the early civilizations.The forms in which it would be applied depended on technological advances, but the perpetrator has always been most exposed to the consequences of such an act.In the second half of the XIX century, with the developmen
Comparative Study and Multi-Objective Crashworthiness Optimization Design of Foam and Honeycomb-Filled Novel Aluminum Thin-Walled Tubes
Due to their lightweight, porous and excellent energy absorption characteristics, foam and honeycomb materials have been widely used for filling energy absorbing devices.For further improving the energy absorption performance of the novel tube proposed in our recent work, the nonlinear dynamics software Abaqus was firstly used to establish and veri
Unraveling the global microRNAome responses to ionizing radiation in human embryonic stem cells.
MicroRNAs (miRNA) comprise a group of short ribonucleic acid molecules implicated in regulation of key biological processes and functions at the post-transcriptional level.Ionizing radiation (IR) causes DNA damage and generally triggers cellular stress response.However, the role of miRNAs in IR-induced response in human embryonic stem cells (hESC)
Escherichia coli GutM4 produces 2,5-diketopiperazines and inhibits human pathogens in vitro
Background: It has been a very common practice to use probiotics or their metabolites as alternative antimicrobial strategies for the treatment and prevention of infections as rampant and indiscriminate use Kitchen Utensils of antibiotics causes the development of antibiotic-resistant pathogens.The objective of this study was to select a potential
