Salivary components from disease vectors help arthropods to acquire blood and have been shown to enhance pathogen transmission in different model systems.Here we show that two salivary enzymes from Lutzomyia longipalpis have a synergist effect that facilitates a more efficient blood meal intake and diffusion of other sialome components.We have prev

A racemic mixture of the title compound, C26H26Br2, a brominated [4]helicene, crystallizes, forming columns of stacked molecules.There are two crystallographically unique molecules in the asymmetric unit, socialstudiesscholar.com both with the same helical handedness.As is typical with helicene congeners, the unique molecules show short interatomic

In this paper, the carbonation depths of glazed hollow bead insulation concrete (GHBC) and normal concrete (NC) at different carbonation ages are tested.The microstructure of GHBC and NC before and after carbonation were observed and compared by mercury intrusion Shirt porosimetry (MIP), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (

Pesticide poisoning is a significant public health concern that presents critical challenges worldwide.Because of the widespread agricultural use and the ease of access to these chemicals, they present significant acute and chronic health risks.With the rise of digital media, platforms like YouTube have become increasingly used to raise awareness a
