Abstract Engineered nano-bio cellular interfaces bring together well-defined nanoscale material morphologies with organic living systems. These extraordinarily complex interfaces are set to produce radical advances in the life sciences, through fundamental research in t...

Mass spectrometry is a fundamental tool for discovery and analysis in the life sciences. With the rapid advances in mass spectrometry technology and methods, it has become imperative to provide a standard output format for mass spectrometry data that will facilitate dat...

International audience; Reef building corals can host different symbiont genotypes (clades), and form distinct holobionts in response to environmental changes. Studies on the functional significance of genetically different symbionts have focused on the thermal toleranc...

Phytoplankton (>100 µm) abundance was studied in the open waters of the Gulf of Aqaba during the summer stratification period of 1996. A succession took place among the major phytoplankton groups, with diatom numbers decreasing throughout the summer. The diazotrophic cy...

AbstractMarine Group II Euryarchaeota (MGII) are among the most abundant microbes in the oceanic surface waters. So far, however, representatives of MGII have not been cultivated, and no viruses infecting these organisms have been described. Here we present complete gen...

Place: Hellinikon Publisher: Natl Centre Marine Research WOS:000563186800002; The Mediterranean Large Elasmobranchs Monitoring (MEDLEM) database contains more than 3,000 records (with more than 4,000 individuals) of large elasmobranch species from 21 different countries...

A biosensor has been fabricated by using the SERS of 4-Aminothiophenol (4-ATP) on optimized nano-sculptured thin films (nSTFs) of silver over Si substrates. The limit of detection is as small as 5 pg/ml of vitellogenin

Abstract Diets can influence the histomorphology of the gut of fish by either causing changes that are associated with growth promotion or causing damage that impairs fish growth. This study evaluated effects of diets with limonene and thymol on the histomorphology of t...

Aerosol–cloud interactions contribute to the large uncertainties in current estimates of climate forcing. We investigated the effect of aerosol particles on cloud droplet formation by model calculations and aircraft measurements over the Amazon and over the western trop...

Multiphase flows in porous media are important in many natural and industrial processes. Pore-scale models for multiphase flows have seen rapid development in recent years and are becoming increasingly useful as predictive tools in both academic and industrial applicati...
