Functional metagenomic analysis of quorum sensing signaling in a nitrifying community by Tan, Chuan Hao, Yeo, Yee Phan, Muhammad Hafiz Ismail, Ng, Noele Kai Jing, Subramoni, Sujatha, Taj, Shireen, Tay, Martin, Chao, Xie, Kjelleberg, Staffan, Rice, Scott A.

“…In wastewater treatment systems, acylated homoserine lactone (AHL)-based QS has been correlated with the conversion of floccular biomass into microbial granules, as well as EPS production and the nitrogen removal process. However, the role of QS in such complex communities is still not fully understood, including the QS-proficient taxa and the functional QS genes involved. …”

Physiological stress responses and meat quality of rabbits subjected to different road transportation and slaughter methods by Khadijah, Nakyinsige

“…Eighty male New Zealand White rabbits were divided into two groups of 40 animals and subjected to either HS or GK using 61.4% CO2, 20.3% oxygen and 18.3 % nitrogen. Both HS and GK caused a substantial increase in enzyme activities and the concentration of adrenaline, noradrenaline, glucose, lactic acid, calcium and white blood cells. …”

In-situ infrared spectroscopy studies of surface reactions over irradiated photocatalysts by Gong, Dangguo

“…This led to a related strategy with anions, where some success has been achieved with nitrogen as dopant. However, no major breakthrough is forthcoming as yet and other approaches are attracting serious interest, e.g., sensitization by narrow-band gap semiconductors, decoration with nanoparticulate metals having plasmon resonance absorption, or organic polymers less susceptible to photo-bleaching than conventional dyes. …”
