FLUCTUATING LIGHT EXPERIMENTS AND SEMI-AUTOMATED PLANT PHENOTYPING ENABLED BY SELF-BUILT GROWTH RACKS AND SIMPLE UPGRADES TO THE IMAGING-PAM

Fluctuating light experiments and semi-automated plant phenotyping enabled by self-built growth racks and simple upgrades to the IMAGING-PAM

Abstract Background Over the last years, several plant science labs have started to employ fluctuating growth light conditions to simulate natural light regimes more closely.Many plant mutants reveal quantifiable effects under fluctuating light despite being indistinguishable from wild-type plants under standard constant light.Moreover, many subtle

Cardiac arrest due to intracranial hypotension following pseudohypoxic brain swelling induced by negative suction drainage in a cranioplasty patient: a case report

Pseudohypoxic brain swelling (PHBS) is known to be an uncommon event that may occur during and following an uneventful brain surgery, when negative suction drainage is used.The cerebrospinal fluid loss related to suction drainage can evoke intracranial hypotension that progress to PHBS.The main presentations of PHBS are sudden unexpected circulator

Experimental Study of New Insulation Lightweight Concrete Block Floor Based on Perlite Aggregate, Natural Sand, and Sand Obtained from Marble Waste

The purpose of the present study is to recover marble waste and expanded perlite aggregate (EPA) for use as an additive to cementitious matrix building materials.The main goal is to produce a new insulation block floor from lightweight concrete (LC) by mixing sand from the waste marble crushing process (SWM), natural sand, and EPA.First, optimal mi
