Self-Adaptation of Pseudomonas Fluorescens Biofilms to Hydrodynamic Stress
(Frontiers Media, 2021-01-12)
In some conditions, bacteria self-organize into biofilms, supracellular structures made of a self-produced embedding matrix, mainly composed of polysaccharides, DNA, proteins, and lipids. It is known that bacteria change ...
Stable Two-Dimensional Soliton Complexes in Bose-Einstein Condensates with Helicoidal Spin-Orbit Coupling
(IOP Publishing, 2020-10-08)
We show that attractive two-dimensional (2D) spinor Bose-Einstein condensates with helicoidal spatially periodic spin-orbit coupling (SOC) support a rich variety of stable fundamental solitons and bound soliton complexes. ...
Microfluidics and materials for smart water monitoring: A review
(Elsevier, 2021-03-13)
Water quality monitoring of drinking, waste, continental and seawaters is of great importance to ensure safety and wellbeing for humans, fauna and flora. Researchers are developing robust water monitoring microfluidic ...
Uses and Perceptions of Music in Times of COVID-19: a Spanish Population Survey
(Frontiers Media, 2021-01-12)
Since March 14, 2020, Spanish citizens have been confined to their homes due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Participating in musical activities has been associated with reduced anxiety and increased subjective ...
Primary biliary cholangitis: pathogenic mechanisms
(2021-03)
Purpose of review
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is characterized by autoimmune damage of intrahepatic bile ducts associated with a loss of tolerance to mitochondrial antigens. PBC etiopathogenesis is intriguing ...
Hamiltonian transformability, fast adiabatic dynamics and hidden adiabaticity
(Springer Nature, 2021-02-25)
We prove the existence of a unitary transformation that enables two arbitrarily given Hamiltonians in the same Hilbert space to be transformed into one another. The result is straightforward yet, for example, it lays the ...
Design and Validation of a Questionnaire (LLQ) on Facilitating the Development of the Learning to Learn Competence in University Educators
(Universidad de Murcia. Campus de Espinardo, 2021-05)
: Within the European Higher Education Area framework, educators must have acquired professional skills in order to promote the learning
to learn competence, which refers to the ability to self-regulate the learning
process ...
Test of Lepton Flavor Universality and Search for Lepton Flavor Violation in B -> Kll Decays
(Springer, 2021-03-10)
We present measurements of the branching fractions for the decays B -> K mu(+)mu(-) and B -> Ke(+)e(-), and their ratio (R-K), using a data sample of 711 fb(-1) that contains 772 x 10(6) B (B) over bar events. The data ...
rs641738C>T nearMBOAT7is associated with liver fat, ALT and fibrosis in NAFLD: A meta-analysis
(Elsevier, 2021-01)
Background & Aims: A common genetic variant near MBOAT7 (rs641738C>T) has been previously associated with hepatic fat and advanced histology in NAFLD; however, these findings have not been consistently replicated in the ...
A wheat cysteine-rich receptor-like kinase confersbroad-spectrum resistance against Septoria tritici blotch
(Nature, 2021-01-19)
The poverty of disease resistance gene reservoirs limits the breeding of crops for durable resistance against evolutionary dynamic pathogens. Zymoseptoria tritici which causes Septoria tritici blotch (STB), represents one ...
