Abstract Mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIA (MPS IIIA) is a lysosomal storage disorder due to the deficient activity of sulfamidase (SGSH).Traditionally, measurement of this enzymatic activity has been performed using a fluorescently (4-MU) labeled glycoside substrate.While this substrate is inexpensive and readily available, the current method requir
Preparation of Hierarchical Porous Carbon Foam by Liquid Foam Composite Microwave Activation Technique and Electrochemical Properties
Hierarchical porous carbon Oven Select Switch foam, using liquid foam as soft template and water-soluble phenolic resin as carbon source and isocyanate as curing agent, was fabricated by microwave activation method.The structure and electrochemical properties of the carbon foam were characterized.The results show that the microwave activation techn
Impact of ion temperature anisotropy on 2D edge-plasma transport
A model of ion temperature anisotropy for 2D plasma transport in the scrape-off layer (SOL) of tokamaks is described and implemented in the UEDGE fluid transport code.Two ion energy equations are used to describe the evolution of the separate parallel and perpendicular ion temperatures.The temperature anisotropy generates viscous forces in both par
The Hidden Diversity of Zanclea Associated with Scleractinians Revealed by Molecular Data.
Scleractinian reef corals have recently been acknowledged as the most numerous host group found in association with hydroids belonging to the Zanclea genus.However, knowledge of the molecular phylogenetic relationships among Zanclea species associated with scleractinians is just beginning.This study, using the nuclear 28S rDNA region and the fast-e
