Efficient enriching high-performance denitrifiers using bio-cathode of microbial fuel cells.

Recent advancements in microbial fuel cells (MFC) technology have significantly contributed to the development of bio-cathode denitrification as a promising method for eco-friendly wastewater treatment. This study utilized an efficient repeated replacement method to enrich a mixed bio-cathode denitrifying culture (MBD) within a bio-cathode MFC, achieving a stable maximum output voltage of 120 ± 5 mV and a NO -N removal efficiency of 69.99 ± 0.

Improving self-directed learning ability of medical students using the blended teaching method: a quasi-experimental study.

Background: Self-directed learning (SDL) is one of the most important abilities for medical students in terms of their future clinical medical practice. During the blended teaching process, teachers can design a variety of learning activities to cultivate students' SDL abilities. This study aimed to assess the differences between the SDL abilities of medical students using blended and traditional didactic teaching.
