During a survey of the genus Trichoderma in the Brazilian ecosystem Restinga, 22 strains related to Trichoderma spirale were found on the basis of identities of tef1, the molecular marker used to discriminate species of this genus. Trichoderma spirale was described in 1991 and since then four species related to it were described and later on added to the clade Spirale. Searches for tef1 sequences assigned to T.

Extensive research on ultrashort laser-induced melting of noble metals like Au, Ag and Cu is available. However, studies on laser energy deposition and thermal damage of their alloys, which are currently attracting interest for energy harvesting and storage devices, are limited. This study investigates the melting damage threshold (DT) of three intermetallic alloys of Au and Cu (AuCu, AuCu and AuCu) subjected to single-pulse femtosecond laser irradiation, comparing them with their constituent metals.

Article Synopsis
  • There is growing interest in using psychedelics like psilocybin to treat hard-to-manage psychiatric disorders, but little is known about how the experiences they create affect mood afterward.
  • In experiments with mice, it was found that psilocybin increased head-twitch responses more in females than in males, highlighting a sex difference in its effects.
  • Stress exposure during or after taking psilocybin impacted anxiety-like behavior in males, blocking its calming effects, while females only experienced a partial effect, suggesting that both sex and the context of the experience are important in understanding the drug's impact.

To endow silicone rubber (SR) catheter with antibacterial property, the SR catheter was modified with a new kind of biomass carbon dots (CDs) by the bulk modification to obtabin the SR/CDs catheter. The antimicrobial behavior and biocompatibility of SR/CDs catheter were analyzed by plate counting method, cytotoxicity test and in vivo animal experiments. The results showed that, SR/CDs catheter possessed antimicrobial properties, and the minimum inhibitory concentration of SR/CDs catheter was 20 mg/ml against Escherichia coli (E.

Background: Restrictive repetitive behaviors (RRBs) and sensory processing disorders are core symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Their relationship is reported, but existing data are conflicting as to whether they are related but distinct, or different aspects of the same phenomenon.

Aims: This study investigates this relationship using artificial neural networks (ANN) analysis and an innovative data mining analysis known as Auto Contractive Map (Auto-CM), which allows to discover hidden trends and associations among complex networks of variables (e.
