Zinc ions play a pivotal role in facilitating the development of cartilage in mice.Nevertheless, the precise underlying mechanism remains elusive.Our investigation was centered on elucidating the impact of zinc deficiency on cartilage maturation by modulating SUMO1 and UBC9 at both the protein and mRNA levels.We administered a regimen inducing zinc
Understanding the dynamic phenomena in grasping/cutting processes with scissors is important for the design of surgical robots and virtual reality systems.Here, we show the relationship between the mechanical stimuli and tactile sensations when forceps or scissors are used.Nineteen subjects grasped or cut objects and evaluated the tactile sensation
Aquaculture plays an important role in providing protein-rich foods, meeting the growing COVER UPS demand for fish.However, aquaculture is a potentially polluting activity, especially with regard to water pollution, due to the improper disposal of wastewater from the production process.Aquaculture wastewater is rich in nutrients (ammonia, nitrate,
