How to implement inclusive design into distinctive feature hand tool? a design study on fine operation-aid screwdriver.

Hand tool design should integrate the concept of Inclusive Design to be accessible to most users. However, current Inclusive Design strategies of product development are mostly used in post-design evaluation. The retention of inclusive properties in product when new functions are incorporated is essential.

Overexpression of Resistance-Nodulation-Division Efflux Pump Genes Contributes to Multidrug Resistance in Clinical Isolates.

is a Gram-negative bacterium that is a critical causative agent of infections in fish and is occasionally responsible for human infections following contact with contaminated water or food. Currently, the extensive use of antibiotics in clinical practice has led to increased number of isolates of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and has posed a serious public health challenge. The efflux pump system is a critical mechanism of antibiotic resistance in most Gram-negative bacteria.

Synergistic Actions of Benzyl Isothiocyanate with Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid and Efflux Pump Inhibitor Phenylalanine-Arginine β-Naphthylamide Against Multidrug-Resistant .

The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) in combination with efflux inhibitors and metal chelators against multidrug-resistant . synergism between testing molecules was observed based on the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC), fractional inhibitory concentration index (FICI), bactericidal kinetics, and growth inhibition assay. BITC alone exhibited moderate antibacterial activity against strains with MIC and MBC values of 0.

Overexpression of () Causing Floral Defects While Promoting Flowering in , Whereas Only Affecting Floral Transition Time in .

The Formosa lily () is one of the most common horticultural species in Taiwan. To explore gene regulation involved in this species, we used transcriptome analysis to generate PH-FB (mixed floral buds) and PH-LF (mature leaves) datasets. Combination of the PH-FB and PH-LF constructed a de novo assembly of the ALL dataset, including 18,041 contigs and 23,807 unigenes by Nr, GO, COG, and KEGG databases.

The Direct Involvement of Dark-Induced Tic55 Protein in Chlorophyll Catabolism and Its Indirect Role in the MYB108-NAC Signaling Pathway during Leaf Senescence in .

The chloroplast relies on proteins encoded in the nucleus, synthesized in the cytosol and subsequently transported into chloroplast through the protein complexes Toc and Tic (Translocon at the outer/inner membrane of chloroplasts). A Tic complex member, Tic55, contains a redox-related motif essential for protein import into chloroplasts in peas. However, Tic55 is not crucial for protein import in .

Identification of Heat Shock Transcription Factor Genes Involved in Thermotolerance of Octoploid Cultivated Strawberry.

Heat shock transcription factors (HSFs) are mainly involved in the activation of genes in response to heat stress as well as other abiotic and biotic stresses. The growth, development, reproduction, and yield of strawberry are strongly limited by extreme temperatures and droughts. In this study, we used Illumina sequencing and obtained transcriptome data set from Duchessne cv.
