quickly and economically.Exogenous application of plant-growth promoting substances in combination with chelators is a common way to enhance the phytoextraction of heavy metals. A pot experiment was used to explore the influences of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA)/gibberellin (GA3) alone or together with oxalic acid (OA) on the growth, physiological response, and nutrient contents of hyperaccumulator Sedum alfredii Hance, and cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) phytoextraction efficiency. The results showed that a foliar spray of IAA/GA3 alone or together with OA increased plant growth. The largest shoot biomass with increase by 29.7% was produced by the 50 μmol L-1 IAA combined with 2.5 mmol kg-1 OA (50I+2.5OA) treatment as compared with the control treatment (CK). The presence of IAA and GA3 enhanced the chlorophyll a, carotenoid, and potassium contents in leaves and decreased the malondialdehyde content. The Cd content in leaf and the translocation factor (TFshoot) value from 50I+2.5OA treatment was increased by 4.29% and 21.4%, and the Pb content in stem and shoot, and the TFshoot of Pb after applying 50 μmol L-1 GA3 combined with 2.5 mmol kg-1 OA was enhanced by 32.5%, 13.4%, and 57.6%, compared with CK, respectively. The optimal Cd and Pb phytoextraction efficiency occurred from 50I+2.5OA treatment with increase by 82.4% and 79.3% as compared with CK, respectively. Therefore, the results showed that a combined application of 50 μmol L-1 IAA and 2.5 mmol kg-1 OA could effectively enhance S. alfredii Hance phytoremediation of Cd and Pb co-contaminated soil.Membrane technology has been widely used in the fields of drinking water treatment with the advantages of pollutants separation. However, membrane fouling has become main obstacle in further application. Graphene oxide (GO) and its functionalized derivatives are considered to be ideal membrane modification materials of membrane fouling control. Selleck RSL3 However, GO coated membranes were suffered from serious flux decline which raises challenges for GO modification. In this study, porous holey graphene oxide (HGO) was synthesized by hydrothermal etched GO to modify UF membranes. Water permeability of HGO membrane was more than twice that of GO membrane at the loading of 0.08 g/m2. At the optimal loading of 0.08 g/m2, the rejection rate of HGO coated membrane on natural organic matter (NOM) such as bovine serum albumin (BSA), sodium alginate (SA) and humic acid (HA) was increased from 55%, 29%, 58%-85%, 72%, 92%, and the contact angle was reduced from 71° to 35° with the HGO coating amount of 0.04 g/m2. Finally, the membrane fouling resistance distribution of each HGO membrane was analyzed given HA as model pollutant, and the effects of HGO on mitigating the organic fouling of Polyethersulfone (PES) membranes were discussed. The total fouling resistance decreased from 3.45 to 1.73 with HGO coating, the irreversible fouling decreased by 62.86%-95.83%. Standard blocking was dominated during filtration. It was also found that increasing the loading of HGO could delay the conversion of pore blocking to the cake layer. Overall, HGO coating has an application prospect for membrane fouling control.Microalgal biomass and its fine chemical production from microalgae have pioneered algal bioprocess technology with few limitations such as lab-to-industry. However, laboratory-scale transitions and industrial applications are hindered by a plethora of limitations comprising expensive in culturing methods. Therefore, to emphasize the profitable benefits, the algal culturing techniques appropriately employed for large-scale microalgal biomass yield necessitates intricate assessment to emphasize the profitable benefits. The present review holistically compiles the culturing strategies for improving microalgal biomass production based on appropriate factors like designing better bioreactor designs. On the other hand, synthetic biology approaches for abridging the effective industrial transition success explored recently. Prospects in synthetic biology for enhanced microalgal biomass production based on cultivation strategies and various mechanistic modes approach to enrich cost-effective and viable output are discussed. The State-of-the-art culturing techniques encompassing enhancement of photosynthetic activity, designing bioreactor design, and potential augmenting protocols for biomass yield employing indoor cultivation in both (Open and or/closed) methods are enumerated. Further, limitations hindering the microalgal bioproducts development are critically evaluated for improving culturing techniques for microalgal cell factories, subsequently escalating the cost-benefit ratio in bioproducts synthesis from microalgae. The comprehensive analysis could provide a rational and deeper detailed insight for microalgal entrepreneurs through alternative culturing technology viz., synthetic biology and genome engineering in an Industrial perspective arena.
Dual transcranial direct current stimulation (dual tDCS) can be combined with stroke rehabilitation interventions to promote excitatory changes in the cerebral cortex.

To investigate how the combined intervention of dual tDCS and modified constraint-induced movement therapy (mCIMT) using both anodal and cathodal stimulation affects on the recovery of upper limb function in chronic stroke patients.

This study was a double-blind randomized controlled trial. A total of 30 patients were randomly assigned to the experimental group (dual tDCS and mCIMT) or control group (sham dual tDCS and mCIMT). The experimental and control group performed mCIMT immediately after applying dual tDCS for 20min, but the control group also performed mCIMT after applying sham tDCS for 20min in a state where no current flows. The total intervention period was performed 5 times a week for 4 weeks. The outcome was assessed using Fugle-Meyer Assessment (FMA) Motor Activity Log (MAL) Accelerometer.

There was a significant improvement in AOU of MAL and usage of unaffected side in the experimental group compared to the control group, and the experimental group showed more than a small effect difference compared to the control group in the effect size of all evaluations.

This study has clinical significance in that it presents the possibility of convergence intervention that considers the therapeutic efficiency in clinical practice.
