Understanding how plants tolerate dehydration is a prerequisite for developing novel strategies for improving drought tolerance. The desiccation-tolerant (DT) Sporobolus stapfianus and the desiccation-sensitive (DS) Sporobolus pyramidalis formed a sister group contrast to reveal adaptive metabolic responses to dehydration using untargeted global metabolomic analysis. Young leaves from both gras...

AIM To investigate serum creatinine and electrolyte status of children with diarrhea-related hyponatremic or hypernatremic dehydration. METHODS Medical history of 83 patients admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit of the Konya Education and Research Hospital, Konya, Turkey with diarrhea, dehydration and electrolyte imbalance was retrospectively evaluated according to the degree of dehy...

Formic acid decomposes primarily to CO and H2 0 in the gas phase, but to CO, and H, in the aqueous phase. Ab-initio quantum chemical calculations were performed, using Hartree-Fock and density functional methods, to seek an explanation for this behavior. The effect of water on the two decomposition pathways and on the isomerization of formic acid was determined. The transition state structures ...

Membrane technology can be used for both post combustion carbon dioxide capture and acidic gas sweetening and dehydration of natural gas. These processes are especially suited for polymeric membranes with polyether functionality, because of the high affinity of this species for both H₂O and CO₂. Here, both crosslinked polyethylene glycol diacrylate and a polyether-polyamide block copolymer (PEB...

nowadays, hydrogels are widely used as wound dressings in biomedical applications. similar to other types of the moist (wet) wound dressings, it is necessary to have sufficient information about their dehydration kinetics during the pre-usage period (e.g. storage duration) and also the wound healing process. in this work, hydrogel wound dressings based on polyvinyl alcohol were prepared by cycl...

abstract cerebral sinovenous thrombosis (csvt) in children has rarely been reported in the literature, especially without underlying disorder. it has increasingly been diagnosed due to clinical awareness and sensitive neuroimaging techniques. the aim of this article was to report a case of cerebral sinovenous thrombosis without underlying disorder. we reported a 5 year old girl, presented with ...

Magnesium chloride hydrates are characterized as promising energy storage materials in the built-environment. During the dehydration of these materials, there are chances for the release of harmful HCl gas, which can potentially damage the material as well as the equipment. Hydrolysis reactions in magnesium chloride hydrates are subject of study for industrial applications. However, the informa...
