Metallic nanoparticles have antimicrobial, virucidal, and anticancer activities and have been widely applied in medicine. In plants, silver nanoparticles have been used as preventive treatments in the greenhouse to reduce viral titers and symptoms. This work investigates the effect of Argovit™ AgNP formulation on apricot plants infected with Plum pox virus or with Hop stunt viroid.

Undesired coupling to the surrounding environment destroys long-range correlations in quantum processors and hinders coherent evolution in the nominally available computational space. This noise is an outstanding challenge when leveraging the computation power of near-term quantum processors. It has been shown that benchmarking random circuit sampling with cross-entropy benchmarking can provide an estimate of the effective size of the Hilbert space coherently available.

Article Synopsis
  • - In a study of 138 multiple myeloma (MM) patients, researchers explored the benefits of monitoring peripheral residual disease (PRD) in blood instead of relying solely on more invasive bone marrow (BM) assessments.
  • - Positive PRD results from next-generation flow (NGF) indicated a significantly higher risk of disease progression/death, and those with undetectable PRD had excellent survival rates.
  • - The findings suggest that PRD monitoring is a valuable and less cumbersome method for identifying patients at risk of relapse during maintenance treatment in transplant-eligible MM patients.
