[Bacterial Community Structure and Antibiotic Resistance Gene Changes in IFAS+Magnetic Coagulation Process Wastewater Treatment Plant in Cold Regions].

The main objective of this study was to explore the changes in bacterial communities and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in an integrated fixed-film activated sludge (IFAS)+magnetic coagulation process wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Xinjiang. The bacterial communities and ARGs in the influent, suspended activated sludge, attached biofilm, and effluent were studied using 16S rRNA gene sequencing and metagenomic sequencing. The results showed that the average relative abundances of Chloroflexi and Nitrospirae in activated sludge were 3.

Losartan Protects Podocytes against High Glucose-induced Injury by Inhibiting B7-1 Expression.

The role of B7-1 in podocyte injury has received increasing attention. The aim of this study was to investigate whether losartan protects podocytes of patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD) by regulating B7-1 and the underlying mechanisms. Rats with streptozotocin-induced DKD were treated with losartan for 8 weeks.

[Effects of residual apple fermentation products on continuous cropping soil environment and the growth of Malus hupehensis Rehd. Seedlings].

Effects of fermented apple products on the growth of continuous cropping Malus hupehensis Rehd. seedlings and soil environment were examined in a pot experiment to provide theoretical basis for apple replant disease. There were four treatments, the replanted soil (control, CK), sterilized replant soil (T), replanted soil applied with apple fermentation products (T), and replanted soil applied with sterilized apple fermentation products (T).
