Carbon storage dynamics and tree growth response to species diversity in boreal forests
(2018)The boreal forest plays a critical role in regulating the global carbon (C) cycle. Both wildfire and harvesting affect ecosystem C. However, the long-term recovery of forest C storage with a diverse range of overstory ... -
Carboxyalkylated cullulose nanocrystals for novel applications
(2021)Cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), rigid rod-like nanoparticles, are derived from cellulose through acid hydrolysis and are considered as emerging nanomaterials according to their beneficial properties and commercial availability. ... -
The carcinogenic properties of naturally occurring human papillomavirus 16 E6 oncogene variants
(2013-02-03)Human papillomavirus is the causative agent of the 2nd highest occurring cancer in women, cervical cancer, which is the result of expression of the E6 and E7 oncogenes. Here we challenged the dogma that the oncogenic protein ... -
Cardiac oxidative stress and antioxidant status in response to radiation and monocrotaline induced cardiac dysfunction
(2016)Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Oxidative stress has been implicated in many types of cardiovascular disease. Chronic cardiac stress conditions have been shown to be associated ... -
Care of the chronic, non-acutely ill elderly person in acute hospitals in light of the biomedical science approach
(1993)The purpose of this study was to investigate aspects and specific events of health care intervention techniques rendered to chronic, non-acutely ill elderly patients, (henceforth known as CNIE), while in an acute care ... -
