BackgroundMosquito-borne Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) has recently re-emerged globally.The epidemic East/Central/South African (ECSA) strains have spread for the first time to Asia, which previously only had endemic Asian strains.In Malaysia, the ECSA strain caused an extensive nationwide outbreak in 2008, while the Asian strains only caused limited o
Histone Deacetylase SIRT1 Targets Plk2 to Regulate Centriole Duplication
Summary: The protein deacetylase SIRT1 (Sirtuin 1) regulates many cellular processes, including cell-cycle progression, DNA damage response, and metabolism.Although the centrosome is a key regulator of cell-cycle progression and genome stability, little is known concerning SIRT1 controlled centrosome-associated events.Here we report that the centro
The effect of DBS on survival of juvenile perch (Perca fluviatilis L.) in relation to certain physical factors
Survival of 5.8 ±1-cm long (l.t.) juvenile perch was studied as influenced by the DBS concentration of 5 mg/l SA in tanks of equal capacities and various Side/Coffee Table surface areas as well as in tanks of the same capacities and surface areas with nettings placed at various depths.Survival time was found to be dependent on the free s
A review on mechanism and application of functional coatings for overhead transmission lines
Overhead transmission line is the main method of power transmission.Conductors, insulators, and towers are the primary electrical equipment of overhead transmission lines.Due Default to overhead transmission lines work in the natural environment, problems such as icing, corona discharge, contamination deposition, and corrosion will arise.As a resul
