Waste biomass-derived activated carbons for selective oxygen adsorption by Harshal Kulkarni, Chandresh Bari, Sagnik Mukherjee, Prayag Gajera, Govind Sethia

“…Activated carbons (ACs) derived from waste rice husk ash (RHA) exhibit remarkable potential for selective oxygen adsorption. The pore morphology of the prepared materials was characterized utilizing BET measurement, t-plot, and BJH-plot suggesting a linear relation between activation temperature and mesopore volume, whereas, micropore volume decreases at activation beyond 550 °C. …”

The role of selection in shaping diversity of natural M. tuberculosis populations. by Caitlin S Pepperell, Amanda M Casto, Andrew Kitchen, Julie M Granka, Omar E Cornejo, Edward C Holmes, Bruce Birren, James Galagan, Marcus W Feldman

“…The highest levels of non-synonymous variation were seen in a group of transporter genes, likely due to either diversifying selection or local selective sweeps. In addition to selection, we identified other important influences on M.tb genetic diversity, such as a 25-fold expansion of global M.tb populations coincident with explosive growth in human populations (estimated timing 1684 C.E., 95% CI 1620-1713 C.E.). …”
