Abstract Comprehensive research of water behavior in Na- and Cu-mordenites with different Na/Cu ratio was done. Several steps of dehydration process were detected and analyzed, taking into account difference in chemical composition of the samples, reaction models and co...

Long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with a plateau phase in their X-ray afterglows obeys a three-dimensional (3D) relation (Dainotti et al. 2016), between the rest-frame time at the end of the plateau, Ta, its corresponding X-ray luminosity, La, and the peak luminosity in the ...

Despite the importance of cell membranes for maintenance of integrity of cellular structures, there is still a lack of methods that allow simple real-time visualization of their damage. Herein, we describe gadolinium–Schiff base-doped quantum dots (GdQDs)-based probes f...

Summary Background High-dose chemotherapy with haemopoietic stem-cell rescue improves event-free survival in patients with high-risk neuroblastoma; however, which regimen has the greatest patient benefit has not been established. We aimed to assess event-free survival a...

Summary According to life history theory, increased investment in reproductive function (physiology and behaviour) at different times throughout the life course affects the risk of many diseases and, ultimately, longevity. Although genetic factors contribute to interind...

Mesoporous materials are of vital importance for use in separation, adsorption, and catalysis. The first step in their preparation consists of synthesizing an organic–inorganic hybrid in which a st...

The impulsive noise in astronomical images originates from various sources. It develops as a result of thermal generation in pixels, collision of cosmic rays with image sensor or may be induced by high readout voltage in Electron Multiplying CCD (EMCCD). It is usually e...
