Abstract Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are ubiquitous on tidal flats but their impact sediment erosion has not been fully understood. Laboratory‐controlled beds were incubated with Bacillus subtilis for 5, 10, 16, and 22 days before the experiments, to study temporal spatial variations in stability caused by bacterial secreted EPS. We found biosedimentary systems showed different erosional behavior related biofilm maturity EPS distribution. In first stage (5 days), bed was more...
Coastal saltmarshes provide a range of ecosystem services, such as flood protection and carbon sequestration, but face rapid global losses. Managed realignment (MR) is an increasingly popular method to artificially recreate these habitats by reinstating tidal regimes reclaimed land. However, improve MR design, better knowledge the processes that control morphological evolution in natural needed. In this paper, we develop tools assist monitoring creek network towards dynamic equilibrium,...
<b>Objective:</b> To determine the number of primary laminin α2 gene mutations and to conduct genotype/phenotype correlation in a cohort lamininα2-deficient congenital muscular dystrophy patients. <b>Background:</b> Congenital dystrophies (CMD) are heterogenous group muscle disorders characterized by early onset variable involvement CNS. Laminin deficiency has been reported about 40 50% cases occidental, classic type CMD.<sup>1,2</sup> is specific isoform localized basal lamina fibers, where...
Abstract Mangrove forests and saltmarshes are recognized for their roles in wave current attenuation, although a comparison of situ observations between woody herbaceous plants is needed order to understand the different mechanisms bio‐physical interaction within coastal wetlands. The aim our study was compare flow reduction energy dissipation by mangrove trees saltmarsh grass subtropical area where tidal currents dominate. Fieldwork conducted measure hydrodynamic processes occurring at...
Biofilm-sediment aggregate (BSA) contains a high water content, either within internal pores and channels or bound by extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) forming highly hydrated biofilm matrix. Desiccation of BSAs alters the morphology thus physical characteristics porous media, such as binding matrix BSA pore geometry. Observing in their naturally form is essential but hampered due to lack techniques for imaging discerning materials. Generally, imagery (scanning electron microscopy...
Abstract Background Osteoarthritis (OA) in the horse is an economic and welfare issue there are no current disease modifying drugs available. Stem cells have been suggested as a therapeutic intervention for OA, originally on basis of their regenerative capacity. However, it hypothesised that mesenchymal stem (MSC) exert effects via paracrine factors including production extracellular vesicles can themselves recapitulate MSC joint. Objectives To isolate from bone marrow investigate...
The thermal performance of high-voltage submarine cables is controlled by the effectiveness heat transfer through sediments in which they are buried. This paper assesses influence sediment parameters on this using finite-element simulations. Particular attention paid to role convective transfer, with a method being developed define installation scenarios where may become significant. shows that permeability dominant factor and can have significant impact cable temperatures, even though it...
Abstract Active surface scanners emit light or a laser stripe to record the exterior of an object landscape, providing results in three dimensions. The use active anthropological and archaeological contexts has increased within last few years, creating number sub‐contexts these disciplines allowing further development certain applications, such as quantitative analysis, replicas education museums creation digital databases archived institutions. However, with guidance, this paper aims assess...
Mixed sediment beaches are globally commonplace, yet little is understood of the extent and behaviour their nearshore zones, potentially underestimating total cross-shore change. This paper first study to investigate lateral vertical active zone gravel-rich mixed beach in Pevensey Bay, a site on South East UK coastline. Morphodynamic change was studied at range timescales (days, months, years) suggesting that width correlated with magnitude peak morphological change, whilst depth closure...
Classical Galactosaemia (CG) is an inborn error of carbohydrate metabolism. In untreated neonates, CG leads to a multi-organ toxicity with life-threatening symptoms. Newborn Screening for began in the Republic Ireland 1972. Ireland, two forms neonatal screening occur. High-risk infants are fed lactose-free/galactose-free formula until result their Beutler test on day 1. All other as per parental preference and screened three five. While immediate or early implementation strict lactose-free...
