Unveiling the germination patterns of Alternaria porri (Ellis) by using regression analysis and hydrothermal time modeling.

Purple blotch disease is a major fungal disease of Allium cepa L. plants which is caused by the fungus Alternaria porri. The best conditions for the growth of Alternaria porri are temperatures between 22 °C and 25 °C and relatively high humidity.

Elaboration of chitosan nanoparticles loaded with star anise extract as a therapeutic system for lung cancer: Physicochemical and biological evaluation.

The research study aimed to maximize the important medical role of star anise extract (SAE) through its loading on a widely available natural polymer (chitosan, Cs). Thus, SAE loaded chitosan nanoparticles (CsNPs) was prepared. The finding illustrated the formation of spherical particles of SAE loaded CsNPs as proved by transmission electron microscope (TEM).

Whole-Exome Sequencing Detecting a Recurrent Pathogenic Mutation, p.His63Asp (H63D) in COVID-19 Patients and Its Effect on Mortality.

Background: In recent years, various coronaviruses have caused severe respiratory illnesses worldwide. For example the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections of COVID-19 outbreak in 2019 in Wuhan, China. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have significantly expanded our comprehension of how specific genetic variations are linked to diseases.

Kinetics, isotherms, and mechanism of removing cationic and anionic dyes from aqueous solutions using chitosan/magnetite/silver nanoparticles.

Modified magnetite chitosan with silver nanoparticles was synthesized and tested for removing cationic and anionic dyes in aqueous solutions. Initial dye concentration, pH, and contact time were examined. Results showed that pH (4.
