We investigate behavior of bouncing and rupturing air bubbles on solid surfaces experimentally.We focus our attention to how the hydrophilicity of the solid surface alters the rupture process.We Mirror observe motion of the single bubble of a fixed diameter on several flat glass plates using high-speed cameras.In this experiment, we use two kinds o
Beneficial effects of silicon (Si) on plants have primarily been studied in crop species under single stress.Moreover, nutrient acquisition-based responses to combination of biotic and abiotic stresses (a common situation in natural habitats) have rarely been reported, in particular in conjunction with soil amendments with Si.Pedunculate oak (Querc
Imperata cylindrica is a medicinal plant native to southwestern Asia and the tropical and subtropical Cast Iron Cookware zones.To date, 72 chemical constituents have been isolated and identified from I.cylindrica Among these compounds, saponins, flavonoids, phenols, and glycosides are the major constituents.Investigations of pharmacological activit
Under the alternating load, the chain of high-speed heavy-duty bucket hoist passes Posters through hundreds of thousands or more shocks, and the final failure mode is mainly chain plate fatigue fracture.There is no report on this kind of chain fatigue tester at home and abroad.Through force analysis of chain plate, theoretical basis is provided for
Ginseng is a traditional herbal medicine in eastern Asian countries.Most active constituents in ginseng are prepared via fermentation or organic acid pretreatment.Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are released by most organisms from prokaryotes to eukaryotes and play central roles in intra- and inter-species communications.Plants produce EVs upon exposu
