A comprehensive life cycle assessment (LCA) was conducted for the matchsticks industry in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan to quantify environmental footprint, water footprint, cumulative energy use, and to identify improvement opportunities in the matchsticks manufacturing process.One carton of matchsticks was used as reference unit for

Abstract Focal adhesions (FAs) are flat elongated structures that mediate cell migration and link the cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix.Along the vertical axis FAs were shown to be composed of three layers.We used structured illumination microscopy to examine the longitudinal distribution of four hallmark FA proteins, which we also used as m

Objective: To identify factors contributing to sex-differences in OA risk by evaluating the short-term effect of high-fat (HF) diet on sex-specific changes in cartilage cell proliferation, ribosomal biogenesis, and targeted extra-cellular and cellular protein abundance.Materials and methods: Knee cartilage was harvested to the subchondral bone from

In this work, an optical-flow-based pose tracking method with long short-term memory for known uncooperative spacecraft is proposed.In combination with the segmentation network, we constrain the optical flow area of Ointment the target to cope with harsh lighting conditions and highly textured background.With the introduction of long short-term mem
