This review describes the researches performed in the last years to assess the impact of pesticide sub-lethal doses on soil microorganisms and non-target organisms in agricultural soil ecosystems.The overview was developed through the careful description and a critical analysis of three methodologies based on culture-independent approaches involvin
A new photosensory function for simple photoreceptors, the intrinsically photoresponsive neurons of the sea slug Onchidium
Simple photoreceptors, namely intrinsically light-sensitive neurons without microvilli and/or cilia, have long been known to exist in the central ganglia of crayfish, Aplysia, Onchidium, and Helix.These simple photoreceptors are not only first-order photosensory cells, but also second-order USB Type C Hubs And Card Readers neurons (interneurons), r
Risk Factors of Death and Injuries Direct-Related to Bam Earthquake, 26th Dec 2003

Direct-acting Antivirals in Kidney Transplant Patients: Successful Hepatitis C Treatment and Short Term Reduction in Urinary Protein/Creatinine Ratios
Introduction: The role of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) clearance in long-term kidney graft survival is unknown.In this study, we examined short-term trends of urinary protein/creatinine (P/C) ratios in a cohort of HCV-infected kidney transplant recipients with stable graft function and treated with direct-acting antivirals (DAAs).Methods: We conducted a
Effect of Sand Faction Percentage in Soil Mixture towards Soil Support Power for Dam Construction
Knowledge of soil, which is an essential construction material, has great importance for dam construction.The level of density and carrying capacity of the soil is very important and should be taken into consideration in the planning and designing stages of civil construction, considering the soil functions as a means to withstand the load or struc
