The acute ip administration of alcohol (EtOH) to freely moving, nonanesthetized rats caused
dose-related elevations in plasma adrenocorticotropin(ACTH) and corticosterone levels. In …

New peptides have been isolated from the sea anemone Anemonia sulcata which inhibit
competitively the binding of 125 I-dendrotoxin I (a classical ligand for K + channel) to rat brain …

Multilayer silicene, the silicon analogue of multilayer graphene, grown on silver (111)
surfaces, possesses a honeycomb (√ 3×√ 3) R30 reconstruction, observed by scanning …

To address the urging challenge of climate change, the concept of Carbon Capture and
Storage (CCS) plays a key role for keeping global warming below 2 C. Recently, the concept of …

Anti-HIV-active polysaccharides and polyphenols were isolated from the brown seaweed
Fucus vesiculosus by hot H20 extraction of both the intact and the homogenized algae. This …

Silicene, the considered equivalent of graphene for silicon, has been recently synthesized
on Ag(111) surfaces. Following the tremendous success of graphene, silicene might further …

Technological and policy solutions for transitioning to a fossil-free society exist, many countries
could afford the transition, and rational arguments for rapid climate action abound. Yet …

Anticoagulant fucoidan fractions of different molecular weight and sulfate content were prepared
and investigated for their effects on platelet function in vitro. The fucoidan fractions were …

A new peptide, APETx1, which specifically inhibits human ether-a-go-go–related gene (HERG)
channels, was purified from venom of the sea anemone Anthopleura elegantissima. …

Patents constitute an important economic mechanism incentivising the development of
technologies. Given the immediacy of the need for global access to effective emission cutting …
