Acute and chronic toxicity assessments of 17β-estradiol (E2) and 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) on the calanoid copepod Acartia clausi: Effects on survival, development, sex-ratio and...
Published 2022“…In contrast, embryonic stage revealed high vulnerability to E2 and EE2 acute effects. Embryos showed non-monotonic dose-response and hatching success was significantly reduced at low realistic concentrations of E2 (0.005, 0.5, and 5 μg L-1) and EE2 (0.05 and 5 μg L-1).Survival, development and sex ratio of A. clausi to EE2 exposure at 1 and 100 μg L-1 were also determined during a life cycle experiment. …”

Tailoring the defects of sub-100 nm multipodal titanium nitride/oxynitride nanotubes for efficient water splitting performance
Published 2021“…XPS, XPS imaging, Auger electron spectra, and positron annihilation spectroscopy disclosed that the high nitridation rate induced the generation of a mixture of Ti-nitride and oxynitride with various vacancy-type defects, including monovacancies, vacancy clusters, and a few voids inside TiOxNTs. These defects decreased the bandgap energy to 2.4 eV, increased visible-light response, and enhanced the incident photon-to-current collection efficiency (IPCE) and the photocurrent density of TiONxNTs by nearly 8 times compared with TiO2NTs, besides a quick carrier diffusion at the nanotube/electrolyte interface. …”

ASSOCIATION BETWEEN INSULIN RESISTANCE AND NITRIC OXIDE IN HUMAN RETINAL MICROVASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL CELLS IN VITRO
Published 2015“…In the current study in order to examine the effect of insulin on NO production, HRECs cells were cultured and grown in high glucose (30mM) and normal (5mM) glucose for 24 hours. Subsequently, the cells were treated with 100nM insulin for 10 minutes, 1, 2, and 4 hours. …”

Association between Insulin and Nitric Oxide in Human Retinal Microvascular Endothelial Cells in vitro
Published 2016“…This study demonstrated that hyperglycemia causes an increase in ROS/oxidative stress and apoptosis, while insulin promotes a significant decrease in ROS and apoptosis. eNOS mediated NO production increases with hyperglycemia but remarkably decreases with insulin treatment after 1 hour, 2 hours and 4 hours. …”

Electrocatalytic arsenite oxidation in bicarbonate solutions combined with CO2 reduction to formate
Published 2020“…Linear sweep voltammograms of n-TEC exhibit a specific As(III) oxidation peak (Ep,As), at which the Faradaic efficiency (FE) of As(V) production is ∼100 %. However, the application of a potential higher than the peak (E > Ep,As) leads to a significant decrease in the FE due to water oxidation. …”
