A different study found that zinc nanofertilizers enhanced photosynthesis rate in maize crops, measured through soluble carbohydrate concentration, likely as a result of the role of zinc in the photosynthesis process. [12] Much work needs to be done in the future to make nanofertilizers a consistent, viable alternative to conventional fertilizers.
The tubes have micronized silica particles which help clot the blood before centrifugation, and a gel at the bottom which separates whole blood cells from serum. [1] Silica nanoparticles induce coagulation through contact activation of coagulation factor XII (Hageman factor). [ 2 ]
Literature reviews have been showing that release of engineered nanoparticles and incurred personal exposure can happen during different work activities. [ 17 ] [ 18 ] [ 19 ] The situation alerts regulatory bodies to necessitate prevention strategies and regulations at nanotechnology workplaces.
Biofertilizers work through multiple mechanisms. Plant-growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and mycorrhizae are generally thought to increase the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen , [ 17 ] convert inorganic phosphorus compounds into soluble forms, increase the bioavailability of minerals in the soil, [ 18 ] and synthesize phytohormones that ...
Here's what selenium is, what benefits it provides and the dangers of taking too much. What is selenium? Selenium is a nutrient that is naturally present in many foods, ...
Health benefits: Studies indicate that drinking black tea may help reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol among people at high risk for cardiovascular disease, promote bone health, and improve mental alertness.
The antibody treatment, sasanlimab, in combination with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine met the main goal of the study in patients with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC ...
Nanomedicine is the medical application of nanotechnology. [1] Nanomedicine ranges from the medical applications of nanomaterials and biological devices, to nanoelectronic biosensors, and even possible future applications of molecular nanotechnology such as biological machines.
