Intestinal fungi, collectively referred to as mycobiota, constitute a small (0.01-2%) but crucial component of the overall intestinal microbiota. While fungi are far less abundant than bacteria in the gut, the volume of an average fungal cell is roughly 100-fold greater than that of an average bacterial cell.

To address these issues, in this work, a recyclable lignocellulosic biocomposites with excellent comprehensive performance was developed using cork flour and poly(1,4-dioxan-2-one) (PPDO) as the green raw materials. The prepared cork/PPDO WPC contained up to 70 wt% cork flour, conferring them with enhanced flexibility (elongation at break >10 %) and cushioning performance due to the strong interactions between PPDO and cork flour, as well as the cork unique flexibility from cork cavity structure and suberin.

Methods: SD rats were divided into control (Control) group and Mad treatment (3.5 mg/kg) group (Mad).
Goals: To assess the feasibility and safety of endoscopic ultrasound-guided laser ablation (EUS-LA) of retroperitoneal lymph node (RPLN) metastasis.
Background: RPLN metastasis is challenging to treat, partly due to hazardous location. EUS-LA is a new attractive option for lesions in high-risk or percutaneous difficult-to-reach locations.
Transition metal compounds are being extensive studied in K-ion hybrids capacitors (KIHCs) owing to their abundant resource and ultrahigh theoretical capacity. However, their poor cycling lifespan and rate capability as vulnerable structures is the major bottleneck for future development. Here the design and construction a heterostructure Nickel sulfoselenide arrays (NiSSe) with large-scale high ordering and large interval spacing are reported.
