Abstract:
The unstoppable quest for low-cost reinforcing agent gingered the enthusiasm towards developing and utilising the agro-based waste product as reinforcement since they are promptly accessible, sustainable, and inexpensive to purchase. In this study, AA6061/rice husk ash matrix composites were produced through metallurgical stir casting techniques. Different weight percentages of reinforcement in the range of 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8% were used to fabricate the composites. The reinforced composites were characterized by SEM/EDS for microstructural study. The mechanical behaviour was examined for all th

Abstract:
Rice husk ash is a kind of volcanic ash material with high silicon. This also provides a feasibility for rice husk ash as cement-based auxiliary cementing material. China is rich in rice husk resources, and the rice husk ash is stacked. Using rice husk ash (RHA) instead of traditional cementitious materials can effectively solve the environmental pollution caused by the accumulation of rice husk ash. Domestic and international scholar have added rice husk ash as mineral admixture to concrete, but the utilization rate is very low. In order to increase the added value of rice husk ash, the high

Husk has multiple functions such as protecting ears from diseases, infection, and dehydration during development. Additionally, husks comprised of fewer, shorter, thinner, and narrower layers allow faster moisture evaporation of kernels prior to harvest. Intensive studies have been conducted to identify appropriate husk architecture by understanding the genetic basis of related traits, including husk length, husk layer number, husk thickness, and husk width. However, marker-assisted selection is inefficient because the identified quantitative trait loci and associated genetic loci could only e

Photocatalyst materials were prepared as a hybrid between TiO2 /SiO2 via low temperature hydrothermal method (150oC) without further heat treatment. Porous silica from rice husk ash was used as a support for fine TiO2 particles which acted as a photocatalyst when radiated with a UV light. TiO2-deposited SiO2 was successfully prepared through hydrolysis of TiOSO4 solution by controlling synthesis parameters such as pH ,concentration of TiOSO4, temperature and time under hydrothermal treatment. The obtained products were characterized for physical and chemical properties by means of XRD, XRF, BE

The usage of industrial and agricultural wastes for building materials production plays an important role to improve the environment and economy by preserving nature materials and land resources, reducing land, water and air pollution as well as organizing and storing waste costs. This study mainly focuses on mathematical modeling dependence of the compressive strength of high performance concrete (HPC) at the ages of 3, 7 and 28 days on the amount of rice husk ash (RHA) and fly ash (FA), which are added to the concrete mixtures by using the Central composite rotatable design.

Abstract In a previously study, the Bacillus sp. strain IA was successfully isolated with high sensitivity to rice husk biochar (RHB). Moreover, RHB promoted an antibiotic iturin A production by strain IA. In order to develop the biocontrol agent, we attempted to reveal the functions of the RHB in promoting the production of iturin A by strain IA. The promotion effects of growth, sporulation and iturin A production of strain IA by the RHB were explained as follows. First, the manganese ion, released from RHB, promoted the sporulation and iturin A production of strain IA. Second, the silicon di

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the major causative agent of hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the precise mechanism underlying the carcinogenesis is yet to be elucidated. It has recently been reported that Syk, a non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase, functions as a potent tumour suppressor in human breast carcinoma. This study first examined the possible effect of HCV infection on expression of Syk in vivo. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that endogenous Syk, which otherwise was expressed diffusely in the cytoplasm of normal hepatocytes, was localized near the cell membrane with a patchy pa

ABSTRACT Replication of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome has been proposed to take place close to the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum in membrane-associated replicase complexes, as is the case with several other plus-strand RNA viruses, such as poliovirus and flaviviruses. The most obvious benefits of this property are the possibility of coupling functions residing in different polypeptidic chains and the sequestration of viral proteins and nucleic acids in a distinct cytoplasmic compartment with high local concentrations of viral components. Indeed, HCV nonstructural (NS) proteins wer

ABSTRACT Adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV2) infection incites cells to arrest with 4N DNA content or die if the p53 pathway is defective. This arrest depends on AAV2 DNA, which is single stranded with inverted terminal repeats that serve as primers during viral DNA replication. Here, we show that AAV2 DNA triggers damage signaling that resembles the response to an aberrant cellular DNA replication fork. UV treatment of AAV2 enhances the G2 arrest by generating intrastrand DNA cross-links which persist in infected cells, disrupting viral DNA replication and maintaining the viral DNA in the si

ABSTRACT Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA replication is dependent on the enzymatic activities of the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase NS5B, which is a membrane-anchored protein. Recombinant NS5B lacking the C-terminal transmembrane domain (21 amino acids) is enzymatically active. To address the role of this domain in HCV replication in vivo, we introduced a series of mutations into the NS5B of an HCV subgenomic replicon and examined the replication capabilities of the resultant mutants by a colony formation assay. Replicons lacking the transmembrane domain did not yield any colonies. Furthermore
