Understanding the fundamental mechanisms involved in the induction of biological damage
by ionizing radiation remains a major challenge of today's radiobiology research. The Monte …

Non-coding "ultraconserved" regions containing hundreds of consecutive bases of perfect
sequence conservation across mammalian genomes can function as distant-acting enhancers…

A simple method is presented for predicting freezing times of predominantly aqueous foodstuffs.
The method assumes that heat is released at a ‘mean freezing temperature’, common to …

This paper reviews mathematical methods for modelling heat and mass transfer during the
freezing, thawing and frozen storage of foods. It starts by considering the problems in …

Plastic pollution in freshwater ecosystems, including microplastics (MPs) smaller than 5 mm,
has become an emerging global concern. Asia is considered a “hot spot” for plastic …

Starting from April 1st, 2020, the nationwide partial lockdown in Vietnam has shown the
effectiveness in stopping the community transmission of COVID-19, however, it also produced …

Distant-acting tissue-specific enhancers, which regulate gene expression, vastly outnumber
protein-coding genes in mammalian genomes, but the functional importance of this …

We introduce the antibody landscape, a method for the quantitative analysis of antibody-mediated
immunity to antigenically variable pathogens, achieved by accounting for antigenic …

This study aimed to evaluate the psychological effects of the partial lockdown on the people
in Vietnam during the COVID-19 pandemic. An online questionnaire regarding attitudes …

Electronic commerce (e-commerce) is an increasingly popular trend in modern economy
concomitant with the development of the Internet. E-commerce has developed considerably, …
