Lipid biomarkers in stalagmites have potential in palaeoenvironmental reconstruction, but
glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) in stalagmites have rarely been investigated. We …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays a central role in the microbial ecology and biogeochemistry
of aquatic environments, yet little is known about how the mechanism of DOM release …

Objective To compare the long-term results of mastoscopic axillary lymph node dissection (MALND)
and conventional axillary lymph node dissection (CALND). Patients and Methods …

Background Lactate has long been considered an intermediate by-product of glucose
metabolism. However, in recent years, accumulating evidence reveals that lactate has unique …

Although sodium vanadium fluorophosphate, Na 3 (VO 1–x PO 4 ) 2 F 1+2x (0 ≤ x ≤ 1), is a
highly promising cathode candidate for sodium-ion batteries because of its stable structure …

Qulong porphyry Cu deposit is the largest Cu deposit in China so far discovered, with total
reserves of 10.6 Mt Cu@0.5% and 0.5 Mt Mo@0.03%. The petrogenesis of the Miocene …

A novel fluid micromixer based on pneumatic perturbation and passive structures was
developed. This micromixer facilitates integration and is applicable to fluid mixing over a wide …

Previous hibernation studies demonstrated that such a natural model of skeletal muscle disuse
causes limited muscle atrophy and a significant fast-to-slow fiber type shift. However, the …

Whether hibernation accelerates or suppresses autophagy is still unknown. In the current
study, we examined changes in autophagy in oxidative soleus (SOL) muscle in summer active (…

A novel fluid mixing strategy was developed which significantly enhanced the efficiency of
DNA hybridization. A pneumatic micro-mixing device consisting of two pneumatic chambers …
