Despite advances in diagnosis, surgery, and antimicrobial therapy, mortality rates associated
with complicated intra-abdominal infections remain exceedingly high. The 2013 update of …

The research and development of solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) began when Wright found
ion conductivity in a PEO-alkaline metal ion complex in 1975. The conductivity then was 1×…

Background The scientific discoveries of health risks resulting from methylmercury exposure
began in 1865 describing ataxia, dysarthria, constriction of visual fields, impaired hearing, …

Human red cell AQP1 is the first functionally defined member of the aquaporin family of
membrane water channels. Here we describe an atomic model of AQP1 at 3.8 Å resolution from …

… Our results show that alkali metal ions such as Li', Na+, K+, Cs+, and Rb+ are effective for …
Arima, and K. Murata. 1981. Biofunctional change in yeast cell surface on treatment with …

A cohort of 1022 consecutive singleton births was generated during 1986–1987 in the Faroe
Islands. Increased methylmercury exposure from maternal consumption of pilot whale meat …

Advances in genomics have expedited the improvement of several agriculturally important
crops but similar efforts in wheat (Triticum spp.) have been more challenging. This is largely …

Here, we reported that a new carbon electrode prepared with an activated carbon was
superior to a Pt sputtered electrode as the counter electrode of dye-sensitized solar cells. The …

Nineteen cholesterol derivatives containing a variety of azobenzene moieties coupled to C-3
of a steroidal moiety through an ester linkage were synthesized. We employed two different …
