Melting and draining tests on glass waste form for the immobilization of Cs, Sr, and rare-earth nuclides using a cold-crucible induction melting system

Cold-crucible induction melting (CCIM) technology has been intensively studied as an advanced vitrification process for the immobilization of highly radioactive waste.This technology uses high-frequency induction to melt a quest fryer glass matrix and waste, while the outer surface of the crucible is water-cooled, resulting in the formation of a fr

Xylose and shikimate transporters facilitates microbial consortium as a chassis for benzylisoquinoline alkaloid production

Abstract Plant-sourced aromatic amino acid (AAA) derivatives are a vast group of compounds with broad applications.Here, we present the development of a yeast consortium equi-jec 6 for efficient production of (S)-norcoclaurine, the key precursor for benzylisoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis.A xylose transporter enables the concurrent mixed-sugar uti

The role of astrocytes in Multiple Sclerosis progression

Multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory disorder causing central nervous system demyelination and axonal injury.Although its etiology remains elusive, several lines of evidence support the concept that autoimmunity plays a major role in disease pathogenesis.The course ofMS is highly variable; nevertheless, the majority of patients initially present a
