Natural Polymer Derivative-based pH responsive Nanoformulations Entrapped Diketo-tautomers of 5-fluorouracil for Enhanced Cancer Therapy by Anbazhagan Thirumalai, Koyeli Girigoswami, Karthick Harini, Venkatakrishnan Kiran, Pazhani Durgadevi, Agnishwar Girigoswami

“…Conclusion: In acidic conditions, there is a greater release of 5-FU than neutral pH levels, indicating a pH-responsive release profile beneficial for cancer treatment, with the release mechanism of OSANPs following Fickian diffusion as identified by a Korsmeyer-Peppas mathematical model and the formu¬lation showing improved therapeutic efficacy. …”

Preparation of Wheat-Straw-Fiber-Based Degradable Mulch Film for Sustained Release of Carbendazim and Its Application for Soybean Root Rot Control by Shuang Liu, Zhe Jin, Pengfei Zhou, Huimin Shang, Haiyan Yang, Longhai Li, Rui Li, Ying Zhang, Haitao Chen

“…Through SEM and sustained-release kinetic analysis, it was found that the sustained-release mechanism of C-CS-WFM conformed to the Ritger–Peppas kinetic model, and its release mechanism was the physical diffusion and matrix erosion. The results of the in vitro antifungal test and pot experiment demonstrated that C-CS-WFM could effectively inhibit the growth of <i>Fusarium solani</i> and promote the growth of plants. …”

Improved Zika virus plaque assay using Vero/TMPRSS2 cell line by Olukunle O. Oluwasemowo, Monica E. Graham, Deepa K. Murugesh, Monica K. Borucki

“…Prior to the initiation of this study, we observed that ZIKV-PRV strain plaque assays using Vero cells often yielded plaques that were very small, overly diffuse, and hard to count. We also observed that the ZIKV-CAM strain often did not produce plaques at all on Vero cells. …”

Mixed Signals: interpreting mixing patterns of different soil bioturbation processes through luminescence and numerical modelling by W. M. van der Meij, S. Riedesel, S. Riedesel, T. Reimann

“…</p> <p>We focus on two main bioturbation processes: mounding (advective transport of soil material to the surface) and subsurface mixing (diffusive subsurface transport). Each process has a distinct effect on the luminescence metrics, which we summarized in a conceptual diagram to help with qualitative interpretation of luminescence-based depth profiles. …”

Enhanced Tolerance to Antifungals as a General Feature of Rho⁻ Mutants in Yeast Species: Implications to Positive Selection of Respiratory Deficiency by Zachary Johnson, Farhan Nadim, Mikhajlo K. Zubko

“…Comparing the levels of tolerance to the antifungals in WT and petite mutants was based on measuring the diameters of the zones of inhibition (ZOIs) using disc diffusion assays. The mode of inhibition in the majority of WT strains by all antifungals was fungicidal; most of the rho⁻ mutants manifested fungistatic inhibition. …”
