There are many causes of fish kill, but oxygen depletion is the most common cause. The term fish kill, known also as fish die-off, refers to a localized die-off of fish populations which may also be associated with more generalized mortality of aquatic life. [1] [2] The most common cause is reduced oxygen in the water, which in turn may be due ...
Definition of problem. One can think of molecular docking as a problem of “lock-and-key”, in which one wants to find the correct relative orientation of the “key” which will open up the “lock” (where on the surface of the lock is the key hole, which direction to turn the key after it is inserted, etc.). Here, the protein can be ...
Algaecide. Algaecide or algicide is a biocide used for killing and preventing the growth of algae, often defined in a loose sense that, beyond the biological definition, also includes cyanobacteria ("blue-green algae"). [1] An algaecide may be used for controlled bodies of water (reservoirs, golf ponds, swimming pools), but may also be used on ...
