SPIDER-VENOM PEPTIDES AS THERAPEUTICS

Spider-Venom Peptides as Therapeutics

Spiders are the most successful venomous animals and the most abundant terrestrial predators.Their remarkable success is due in large part to their ingenious exploitation of silk and the evolution of pharmacologically complex venoms that ensure Ghee rapid subjugation of prey.Most spider venoms are dominated by disulfide-rich peptides that typically

Zr alloying effects on the microstructure, compression performance and oxidation resistance of refractory high entropy alloys

Three refractory high entropy alloys (RHEAs) with nominal compositions of Mo _0.5 NbHf _0.25 CrZr _x TiAl (x = 0, 0.5, 1, mole ratio) were prepared by vacuum non-consumable arc melting technology.The influences of Zr addition on the microstructure, compressive performance and oxidation resistance at 1473 K of RHEAs were investigated and evaluated i

Prototype Observation of Flow Characteristics in an Inclined-Tube Settling Tank for Fine Sandy Water Treatment

Clarifying the flow characteristics in the settling tank is the foundation for the design optimization and efficiency improvement of sediment removal.However, few research works have been undertaken on the precise observation of the flow movement in the tank.For this purpose, research into an inclined-tube settling tank for the water-sediment separ
