Distribution of surface layer temperature inversion in the North Indian Ocean and associated acoustic propagation characteristics

Surface Layer Temperature Inversion (SLTI), a warm layer between the surface and subsurface colder waters, is a significant oceanographic feature that has a profound impact on the oceanic acoustic propagation. Strong inversions are observed in northern BoB and in the South Easter...

Converging pathomechanisms link SARS-CoV-2 infection with major neurodegenerative diseases

Neurological complications are among typical clinical manifestations, both during the acute phase of SARS-CoV-2 infection and long-term post-acute COVID-19 sequelae, i.e., Long COVID. A growing body of evidence connects SARS-CoV-2 infection to systemic inflammation, peripheral im...

Triclosan Induces Oxidative Stress, Gene Expression Changes, and Cardiomyocyte Dysfunction in Magallana bilineata Heart Cell Cultures

ABSTRACT Triclosan (TCS) is an antimicrobial compound widely used in pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs). It is classified as a contaminant of emerging concern (CEC) due to its environmental health implications. However, significant knowledge gaps remain regarding t...
