This protocol is designed for large-scale isolation of highly purified peroxisomes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae using two consecutive density gradient centrifugations. Instructions are provided for harvesting up to 60 g of oleic acid-induced yeast cells for the preparation of spheroplasts and generation of organellar pellets (OPs) enriched in peroxisomes and mitochondria. The OPs are loaded onto eight continuous 36%-68% (w/v) sucrose gradients. After centrifugation, the peak peroxisomal fractions are determined by measurement of catalase activity. These fractions are subsequently pooled and subjected to a second density gradient centrifugation using 20%-40% (w/v) Nycodenz.

The built environment is an important determinant of travel demand and mode choice. Studying the relationship between the built environment and transportation usage can support and assist traffic policy interventions. Previous studies often assumed that this relationship is linear; however, the impact of the built environment on non-motorized travel efficiency may be more complex than the typically modeled linear relationships.

Biting midges of genus Leptoconops Skuse 1889 are small blood-feeding insects recognized as highly irritating diurnal pests in certain regions around the globe. In Europe, their presence is poorly documented, except in France and Italy. Following reports of human discomfort in a tourist area of Menorca, Balearic Islands (Spain), a small-scale study was conducted to identify the biting species and assess their preferred biting sites using a human-landing assay along a habitat gradient in a coastal dune area.

In this article, we present three mesoscopic models for water. All three models make use of local density-dependent interaction potentials, as employed within the Pagonabarraga-Frenkel framework [Pagonabarraga, I.; Frenkel, D.

A particle current generated by pumping in the absence of gradients in potential energy, density or temperature is associated with non-trivial dynamics. A representative example is charge pumping that is associated with the quantum Hall effect and the quantum anomalous Hall effect. Spin pumping, the spin equivalent of charge pumping, refers to the emission of a spin current by magnetization dynamics.

We solve high-dimensional steady-state Fokker-Planck equations on the whole space by applying tensor neural networks. The tensor networks are a linear combination of tensor products of one-dimensional feedforward networks or a linear combination of several selected radial basis functions. The use of tensor feedforward networks allows us to efficiently exploit auto-differentiation (in physical variables) in major Python packages while using radial basis functions can fully avoid auto-differentiation, which is rather expensive in high dimensions.
