Antifungal activity and mechanism of Phoebe bournei wood essential oil against two dermatophytes by Yan Yang, Qinglin Sun, Yuting Zhang, Junhua Huang, Wenjun Ma, Qi Yang, Zaikang Tong, Junhong Zhang

“…Yang wood essential oil (PWEO) has been found to have excellent antifungal activity, but its mechanism remains unclear.MethodologyDetermination of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of PWEO on two dermatophytes (Microsporum gypseum and Epidermophyton floccosum) by broth microdilution method. Culture plates containing PWEO in vitro tested PWEO inhibition effect of mycelial growth of dermatophytes and the effect of PWEO on hyphal structure was observed by microscopy; the changes of cell membrane permeability and the degree of lipid peroxidation were reflected by measuring cell physiological indexes. …”

Давньоіранське зображення хронотопу в передачі вторинного джерела by Юрій Писаренко

“…The central image of the gyol is decorated with a composition interpreted as a world (paradise) tree flower, which, at the same time, can represent the so-called «navel of the earth». The presence of symbols of weaving tools not only indicates that spinning and weaving are timed to certain calendar phases, but also the cosmogonic semantics of the weaving craft on the one hand, and on the other hand, the corresponding, figurative interpretation of cosmogony as «carpet maker’s work». …”

Epsilon Canis Majoris: The Brightest Extreme-ultraviolet Source with Surprisingly Low Interstellar Absorption by J. Michael Shull, Rachel M. Curran, Michael W. Topping

“…The observed extreme-ultraviolet spectrum yields a hydrogen photoionization rate Γ _HI ≈ 10 ^−15 s ^−1 (at Earth). The total flux decrement factor at the Lyman limit (Δ _LL = 5000 ± 500) is a combination of attenuation in the stellar atmosphere (Δ _star = 110 ± 10) and interstellar medium (Δ _ISM = 45 ± 5) with optical depth τ _LL = 3.8 ± 0.1. …”
