We also examined the impact of temperature, UVB radiation and HS supplementation on coral photosynthetic activity, a proxy for coral bleaching.
Methods And Results: We performed a multifactorial experiment using a randomized-controlled microcosm setup.
Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials are at the forefront of potential technological advancements. Carbon-based materials have been extensively studied since synthesizing graphene, which revealed properties of great interest for novel applications across diverse scientific and technological domains. New carbon allotropes continue to be explored theoretically, with several successful synthesis processes for carbon-based materials recently achieved.

Methods: This is a cross-sectional study including subjects undertaking hemodialysis for at least 3 months. Handheld dynamometer measurements of hip and ankle muscle strength (N) were registered on 4 different occasions, 2 trials by raters A and 2 by raters B, to evaluate the intra and inter-rater reliability.
