Recently researchers have discovered that groups of small non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) play regulatory roles in gene expression and participate in various biological processes. For example, pathogenesis of many diseases, cell cycle regulation, and signaling pathways. Intracellular and live cell imaging of small ncRNA groups will reveal their relative expression levels...
While fluorochemicals have been detected all over the world and in wastewater
treatment plants, the effect of wastewater effluent on the receiving waters has not been
evaluated. In the first study, the mass flow of fluorochemicals emanating from
wastewater treatment plants along the Glatt River in Switzerland was evaluated. The...
Chemistry of preparing dense film from solution deposition is explored with several cases in this thesis. Surface dense structure, conversion at melting point, and ion exchange in aqueous solution are the main topics covered here for the thin films of aluminum oxide phosphate and tin dioxide. Thin film density, optical...
