Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is increasingly being used Rubber Soother as a reverse genetics tool to study functions of specific plant genes.It is especially useful for plants, such as soybean, that are recalcitrant to transformation.Previously, Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV) was shown to be an effective VIGS vector for soybean.However, the re
Rockburst characteristics of several hard brittle rocks: A true triaxial experimental study
Rockburst is a typical rock failure which frequently threatens both human life and construction equipment during highly stressed underground Sculpture Figurines excavation.Rock lithology is a control factor of rockburst.In this paper, rockburst tests were conducted on rectangular prismatic specimens of six types of intact hard brittle rocks, i.e.gr
Peptide-modified PAMAM-based bone-targeting RNA delivery system
Abstract Background Osteoporosis, among other bone diseases, has become a prevalent cause of decreased quality of life in older and postmenopausal women.Traditional anti-osteoporotic therapies, though widely prescribed, are limited by a lack of cell- or tissue-specific targeting ability and effectiveness without side effects.Gene therapy is rapidly
MULTIPARAMETRIC RECOGNITION OF ORGANIC VAPORS BY USING A GAS SENSOR BASED ON A NANOSTRUCTURED TIN DIOXIDE FILM
The influence of organic vapors (isopropanol, ethanol, and acetone) with different concentrations in air on a response gas sensor based on nanostructured tin dioxide films synthesized by the sol-gel method was studied.It was found experimentally that inject of the gas mixtures containing organic vapors into measure chamber results to an increase of
