Enhancement solar dryer performance and collector efficiency of paraffin PCM/copper fin featured solar dryer.

The increasing adoption of renewable solar energy sources offers significant opportunities for sustainable energy applications due to their economic benefits and the conservation of natural resources with eco-friendly and reduced drying time. Solar dryers play an important role in drying agricultural products; however, it found the challenges of heat loss, instability in varying weather conditions, and limited efficiency during periods of insufficient solar radiation. This study aims to enhance the thermal performance of solar dryers that incorporate paraffin phase change material (PCM) into a fin collector absorber for drying agricultural products, specifically banana and potato slices cut to 2 mm thickness.

Structural convergence and water-mediated substrate mimicry enable broad neuraminidase inhibition by human antibodies.

Influenza has been responsible for multiple global pandemics and seasonal epidemics and claimed millions of lives. The imminent threat of a panzootic outbreak of avian influenza H5N1 virus underscores the urgent need for pandemic preparedness and effective countermeasures, including monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Here, we characterize human mAbs that target the highly conserved catalytic site of viral neuraminidase (NA), termed NCS mAbs, and the molecular basis of their broad specificity.

Ultra-low dose superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticle injection for sentinel lymph node detection in breast cancer: prospective cohort study.

Background: Sentinel lymph node (SLN) staging is essential in breast cancer. Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIO) is a tracer where the optimal injection technique is yet not defined. The aim was to evaluate SLN detection using 0.

RIT1M90I Is a Driver of Lung Adenocarcinoma Tumorigenesis and Resistance to Targeted Therapy.

Unlabelled: RIT1 is a RAS-family guanosine triphosphatase that is mutated in 2.4% and amplified in up to 14% of patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Yet the oncogenic potential of RIT1 in the lungs has not been fully established.

Evaluation of model-simulated tropical cyclone response on the biogeochemical parameters using profiling float observations in the Arabian Sea.

In this study, the measurements from a Biogeochemical Argo float (A-float) were used to evaluate the capability of coupled bio-physical model using Regional Ocean Model System (ROMS) in simulating the physical and biogeochemical state during the Tropical Cyclone (TC) Ockhi in the northeastern Arabian Sea (16.36°N and 69.66°E).
