Methodological Substantiation of the choice for a stabilizer for bismuth titanate fine particles suspensions by Svetlana V. Samchenko, Irina V. Kozlova, Olga V. Zemskova, Marina O. Dudareva

“…It can also be concluded that it is not reasonable to increase the plasticizer concentration above CMC for polycarboxylate plasticizer and above CMC2 for sulfonaphthalinformaldehyde plasticizer, which is due to structural changes in the micelles of plasticizers. It is assumed that in order to stabilize bismuth titanate fine particles, it is necessary to choose the plasticizers concentration within the limits not exceeding the values of CMC for polycarboxylate plasticizer and CMC2 for sulfonaphthalinformaldehyde plasticizer. …”

Proteiniphilum and Methanothrix harundinacea became dominant acetate utilizers in a methanogenic reactor operated under strong ammonia stress by Gao Feng, Yan Zeng, Hui-Zhong Wang, Ya-Ting Chen, Yue-Qin Tang, Yue-Qin Tang, Yue-Qin Tang

“…The results showed that even at the TAN of 6 g L−1 (pH 7.5), the methanogenesis kept normal, the biogas production was approximately 92% of that at TAN of 1 g L−1 and the acetate degradation ratio reached 99%, suggesting the strong TAN tolerance of the microbial community enriched. 16S rRNA gene analysis suggested that the microbial community structure changed along with the TAN concentration. Methanothrix predominated in methanogens all the time, in which the dominant species was gradually replaced from M. soehngenii to M. harundinacea with the increased TAN. …”

Improper Remodeling of Organelles Deputed to Ca²⁺ Handling and Aerobic ATP Production Underlies Muscle Dysfunction in Ageing by Feliciano Protasi, Laura Pietrangelo, Simona Boncompagni

“…We reviewed the existing literature about EC coupling, mitochondrial Ca²⁺ uptake, SOCE and about the structural membranes and organelles deputed to those functions and finally, we summarized the data collected in different, but complementary, projects studying changes caused by denervation and ageing to the structure and positioning of those organelles: a. denervation of muscle fibers—an event that contributes, to some degree, to muscle loss in ageing (known as sarcopenia)—causes misplacement and damage: (i) of membrane structures involved in EC coupling (calcium release units, CRUs) and (ii) of the mitochondrial network; b. sedentary ageing causes partial disarray/damage of CRUs and of calcium entry units (CEUs, structures involved in SOCE) and loss/misplacement of mitochondria; c. functional electrical stimulation (FES) and regular exercise promote the rescue/maintenance of the proper architecture of CRUs, CEUs, and of mitochondria in both denervation and ageing. All these structural changes were accompanied by related functional changes, i.e., loss/decay in function caused by denervation and ageing, and improved function following FES or exercise. …”
