Impact of pollution prevention practices and green environmental practices on sustainable performance: Empirical evidence from Chinese SMEs.

Adequate protection of the environment is one of the hot spots of concern for all sectors of society due to severe environmental pollution. The solution to this issue is friendly management of the environment. With the rapid growth of Chinese Manufacturing SMEs for economic development, environmental pollution and abuse of resources are arising.

Precursor dependent - Visible light-driven g-CN coated polyurethane foam for photocatalytic applications.

Photocatalysis has emerged as a highly effective method for eliminating organic pollutants from wastewater. The immobilization of photocatalysts on a suitable solid surface is highly desired to achieve enhanced photocatalytic activity. In this work, graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) is synthesized with three different precursors (melamine, thiourea, and urea) via a simple thermal exfoliation method and successfully immobilized on a polyurethane (PU) foam using the facile dip coating method.

Fragment-based design and MD simulations of human papilloma virus-16 E6 protein inhibitors.

The main objective of this study is to screen potential small molecule inhibitors against HPV (Human Papilloma Virus)-16 E6 protein (HPV16 E6P) using a fragment-based approach. Twenty-six natural HPV inhibitors were selected based on the review of the literature. Among them, Luteolin was selected as the reference compound.

Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody-Associated Disease Presenting as Intracranial Hypertension: A Case Report.

The production of autoantibodies against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) can cause a spectrum of autoimmune disorders, including optic neuritis, transverse myelitis, brainstem encephalitis, and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. In this study, we present the case of a 19-year-old woman with an unusual clinical presentation of intracranial hypertension (IH) and bilateral papilledema. The patient presented with symptoms of increased intracranial pressure, which followed a relapsing, remitting course over several months.

Flow cytometry analysis of apoptotic progression and expression analysis of four apoptosis-related genes in in response to white spot syndrome virus infection.

Flow cytometry analysis was carried out to detect the progression of apoptosis in haemocytes of WSSV infected at different time-points (1.5 hpi, 18 hpi and 56 hpi). Apoptosis in haemocytes was found to increase with time of infectivity from 5.
