In recent years, the antifungal concrete is developed by COMBAT CRUNCH CHOC CHIP BAR using several materials as admixtures.In this present study, the antifungal activity of concrete was evaluated against specie of fungi; Aspergillus niger which can be easily discovered in the interiors and exteriors of buildings by using two types of organic antifu
Characterizing Pavement Surface Distress Conditions with Hyper-Spatial Resolution Natural Color Aerial Photography
Roadway pavement surface distress information is critical for effective pavement asset management, and subsequently, transportation management agencies at all levels (i.e., federal, state, and local) dedicate a large amount of time and money to routinely evaluate pavement surface distress conditions as the core of their asset management programs.Ho
Identification of potential crucial genes and key pathways in osteosarcoma
Abstract Background The aim of this study is to identify the potential pathogenic and metastasis-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in osteosarcoma through bioinformatic analysis of Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.Results Gene expression profiles of GSE14359, GSE16088, and GSE33383, in total 112 osteosarcoma tissue samples and 7 o
Selenium Biofortification: Strategies, Progress and Challenges
Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element for humans and animals.Its necessity for plants is still under examination.Due to the contradictory nature of Se and its significance, it has received much interest in recent years.Se deficiency can be harmful to humans, yet almost a billion people are deficient.Its deficiency has been associated with can
Efficacy of Cefiderocol Against Endophthalmitis Isolates
Background/Objectives: Endophthalmitis is an intraocular microbial infection that can lead to permanent blindness, even with prompt anti-microbial therapy.Multi-drug-resistant organisms are on the rise, potentially limiting the efficacy of current empiric antibiotic therapies of intravitreal ceftazidime and vancomycin.Cefiderocol is a recent FDA- a
