A METHODOLOGICAL REVIEW OF TOOLS THAT ASSESS DUST MICROBIOMES, METATRANSCRIPTOMES AND THE PARTICULATE CHEMISTRY OF INDOOR DUST

A Methodological Review of Tools That Assess Dust Microbiomes, Metatranscriptomes and the Particulate Chemistry of Indoor Dust

Indoor house dust is a blend of organic and inorganic materials, upon which diverse microbial communities such as viruses, bacteria and fungi reside.Adequate moisture in the indoor ORG BAKED BEANS environment helps microbial communities multiply fast.The outdoor air and materials that are brought into the buildings by airflow, sandstorms, animals p

Mitochondrial expression and activity of P-glycoprotein under oxidative stress in outer blood-retinal barrier

AIM: To investigate the role of oxidative stress in regulating the functional expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in mitochondria of D407 cells.METHODS: D407 cells were exposed to different ranges of concentrations of H2O2.The mitochondrial location of P-gp in the cells subjected to oxidative stress was detected by confocal analysis.Expression of P

Dynamic Inter-Brain Networks Correspond With Specific Communication Behaviors: Using Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Hyperscanning During Creative and Non-creative Communication

Social interaction is a dynamic and variable process.However, most hyperscanning studies implicitly assume that inter-brain synchrony (IBS) is constant and rarely investigate the temporal variability of the multi-brain networks.In this study, we used sliding windows and k-mean clustering to obtain a set of representative inter-brain network states
