This study investigates the performance of a sequencing batch electro-membrane bioreactor (SB-EMBR) operated under low electric charge loading (39.9 mAh L⁻ 1 ), focusing on the effects of aeration intensity on treatment performance, biomass activity, and membrane fouling. The reactor was operated at a current density of 10 A m −2 and three specific aeration demand levels (SADₘ = 0.48, 0.24, and 0.12 m 3 m⁻ 2 h⁻ 1 ). Organic ma...

Background CD4 + T cells are major reactive subpopulation for cellular and humoral immune responses following sepsis. The apoptosis of CD4 + T cells may contribute to sepsis-induced immunosuppression, and preventing the induction of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) can ameliorate apoptosis of CD4 + T cells in sepsis. The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway performs an essential regulatory role on ERS-apoptosis of...

In South Greenland, public concerns have linked “black livers” in sheep to presumed environmental pollution from the Kvanefjeld mining exploration project. Elevated concentrations of metals and radionuclides in the area reflect natural geochemistry and weathering processes, not pollution from exploration activities. However, in response, we conducted a preliminary case–control study to diagnose the condition, investigate links...

Multiple studies have reported genetic evidence of crop‐to‐wild introgression in phenotypically wild accessions of wild barley ( Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum ). We examined 318 Wild Barley Diversity Collection (WBDC) accessions for evidence of introgression from domesticated barley. Using SNP genotyping data, we performed local ancestry inference between the WBDC accessions and domesticated barley to identify genomic region...
