Phosphorus reduction from wastewater is vital to mitigate eutrophication of receiving waters. In this study, discarded lignocellulose biochar loaded with lanthanum (defined as La-biochar) was applied for phosphate adsorption. Based on the design of response surface methodology, La-biochar displayed a
A recent surprising discovery of the activity of rare earth metals (lanthanides) as enzyme cofactors as well as transcriptional regulators has overturned the traditional assumption of biological inertia of these metals. However, so far, examples of such activities have been

Signalling events mediated by connexins and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) have important roles in bystander effects induced by ionising radiation. However, whether these proteins mediate bystander effects independently or cooperatively has not been investigated. Bystander normal human fibroblasts were cocultured with irradiated

The cochlear lateral wall generates the endocochlear potential (EP), which creates a driving force for the hair cell transduction current and is essential for normal hearing. Blood flow at the cochlear lateral wall is critically important for maintaining the EP.

Addition of 1.0 mM LaCl(3) to aqueous ammonium acetate solutions containing proteins in their folded native forms can result in a significant increase in the molecular ion charging obtained with electrospray ionization as a result of cation adduction. In combination
