The influence of the addition of calcium lactate (CaLac) and ascorbic acid (AA) to sucrose (Suc) osmotic solutions on osmotic dehydration kinetics and endogenous metabolic heat production of apple tissue was evaluated. Our ...

The goal of this work was to assess soil microbial respiration, determined by the assay of community-level physiological profiling in an oxygen-sensitive microplate (O2-CLPP), in response to endogenous C and several ...

Different types of network oscillations occur in different behavioral, cognitive, or vigilance states. The rodent hippocampus expresses prominentoscillations atfrequencies between 4 and 12Hz,which are superimposed by ...

This article reviews the interactions between nitric oxide (NO)and mitochondrial respiration. Mitochondrial ATP synthesis is responsible for virtually all energy production in mammals, and every other process in living ...

Organic fertilizers provide long-term benefits to agronomic soils, but sometimes cause short-term reductions in crop yield due to microbially mediated nitrogen (N) immobilization. A simple, rapid method to assess the ...

Current approaches for rapid assessment of carbon source utilization by whole soil communities (i.e., community-level physiological profiling or CLPP) provide a limited, biased view of microbial communities with little ...

The improper disposal of nitrogen in receiving water courses causes problems such as toxicity to living beings through the consumption of oxygen to meet the nitrogen demand, eutrophication and nitrate contamination of ...
