High and Low Niles: a Natural Phenomenon and Its Mythological Interpretation According to Plutarch, De Iside et Osiride 38 and Coffin Texts Spell 168 KU Leuven
Plutarch’ De Iside et Osiride 38 identifies the Nile with Osiris’ bodily fluids, the riparian lands with Isis, the part of the floodplain closest to the desert with Nepthys, and the desert with Seth. Moreover, the Nile flood is interpreted as Osiris impregnating Isis with Horus and Nephthys with Anubis. This can be interpreted as a new source about Seth’s impotence and Osiris’ committing adultery with Seth’s wife Nephthys. CT spell 168, a ...
On the monophyly of Dactylorhiza Necker ex Nevski (Orchidaceae): is Coeloglossum viride (L.) Hartman merely a Dactylorhiza ? Meise Botanic Garden
Previous phylogenetic analyses of Orchidaceae subtribe Orchidinae resulted in the proposal to classify Coeloglossum viride (L.) Hartman within the genus Dactylorhiza in order to maintain its monophyly. In this paper, we report some results that contradict previous studies regarding the monophyly of the traditional Dactylorhiza and its phylogenetic relationship with Coeloglossum. Our results, which combine sequences of the internal and external ...
Biosynthesis and characterization of selenium and silver nanoparticles using Trichoderma viride filtrate and their impact on Culex pipiens University of Antwerp
Some of the significant globally prevalent vector-borne illnesses are caused by Culex pipiens. Synthetic pesticides have been widely utilized to eradicate C. pipiens, which has led to a number of health risks for people, insect resistance, and environmental contamination. Alternative strategies are therefore vitally needed. In the current investigation, the Trichoderma viride fungal culture filtrate was used to create selenium and silver ...
Supersaturation in human gastric fluids KU Leuven
PURPOSE: The current study reports on supersaturation, precipitation and excipient mediated precipitation inhibition of five poorly soluble drugs (loviride, glibenclamide, itraconazole, danazol, and etravirine) in human and simulated gastric fluids. METHOD: Upon induction of supersaturation in human gastric fluids (HGFs), simulated gastric fluid (SGF), and fasted state simulated gastric fluid (FaSSGF) using a solvent shift method, ...
Drug precipitation-permeation interplay: Supersaturation in an absorptive environment KU Leuven
PURPOSE: The present study investigated the interplay between supersaturation, absorption, precipitation, and excipient-mediated precipitation inhibition by comparing classic precipitation assessment in a non-absorption environment with precipitation/permeation assessment in an absorption environment. Loviride and HPMC-E5 were selected as poorly soluble model drug and precipitation inhibitor, respectively. METHOD: To investigate supersaturation ...
