The functionality of cellular membranes relies on the molecular order imparted by lipids. In
eukaryotes, sterols such as cholesterol modulate membrane order, yet they are not typically …

… Instead, the authors found that a model of the seven lipids PC O-36:1, PC O-34:2, PC 38:5,
PC P-40:6, cholesteryl ester (CE) 24:0, SM 42:1, and PE 38:6 provided the best information …

… In wild-type third instar larvae, we detected both 20-OH ecdysone and the related hormone
makisterone A but not ecdysone or methyl-ecdysone (the precursor of makisterone A) (Fig. 7G…

… However, because GC-MS analysis was performed on whole cell biomass, C14-OH could
be derived from lipopolysaccharides that are not extractable by solvents, or else were present …

… C 28 H 45 O 7 calculated from the mass to charge ratio (m/z) 493.3159 ([M+H] + ; 1.5 ppm
mass accuracy) and t-MS2 spectrum suggested that it differs from MaA (C 28 H 47 O 7 ) by one …

… In the Raman spectrum of the original La 2 O 3 powder (… cm −1 , that are close in terms
of La 2 O 3 films [24,25]. Intense … La–O–La bonds will be distorted and the formation of Ag–O–…

Many of the lipids found on the cuticles of insects function as pheromones and communicate
information about age, sex, and reproductive status. In Drosophila, the composition of the …

Cigarette smoke (CS) causes adverse health effects and, for smoker who do not quit,
modified risk tobacco products (MRTPs) can be an alternative to reduce the risk of developing …

A number of semiconducting and bioactive nanocomposite systems based on TiO 2 are
designed for environmental protection. The presented structures based on titanium dioxide, …

Ag/TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by a simple chemical deposition method using
silver nitrate and suspension of TiO (OH) 2. Silver NPs were deposited on the surface and …
