In corals, pH regulation of the extracellular calcifying medium (ECM) by the calcifying cell layer is a crucial step in the calcification process and is potentially important to influencing how corals respond to ocean acidification.Here, we analyzed the growing edge of the reef coral Stylophora pistillata to make the first characterization of the p
ABSTRACT It is commonly accepted that dietary fibers are good for gut health.The effect of fibers on the diversity and metabolic activities of the cecal microflora, however, differ with the passage of time.Therefore, we investigated the time-series impacts of the pasture grazing system (a high dietary fiber source) on the cecal microbiome and short
The industrial revolution created a rise in mass manufacture, increasing consumption to current unsustainable levels and marking a decline in hands-on craft practice.In contemporary practice, designers frequently employ digital ways of working and, whilst this may create opportunities and efficiencies, it can limit the working of materials by hand.
Sea cucumber (Apostichopus japonicus) is considered to be an important food and nourishing ingredient in Asian cuisine, but consumers are vulnerable to food safety risks because of eating customs and Therapeutic Conditioners breeding conditions.Three isolates (CH, HB, and WH) of Bacillus cereus were obtained from sea cucumbers in three coastal aqua
