Adverse effects of extreme wet events are well documented by several studies around the world.These effects are exacerbated in developing countries like Malawi that have insufficient risk reduction strategies and capacity to cope with extreme wet weather.Ardent Adapters monitoring of the variability of extreme wet events over Malawi is therefore im
Abnormal processing of TAR DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43) has been identified as a major factor in neuronal degeneration during amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD).It is unclear how changes to TDP-43, including nuclear to cytosolic translocation and subsequent accumulation, are controlled in these diseas

Topical curcumin shows poor local availability because of its low aqueous solubility and inadequate tissue absorption.Curcumin nanocrystals were prepared by sonoprecipitation followed by lyophilization to improve surface area and solubility.The formulation was optimized by the Design of Experiment (DoE) approach.The nanocrystals were characterized
Gluten avoidance is becoming a popular diet trend around the world.In this study, green Saba banana flour (GSBF) was used to produce a gluten-free (GF) steamed cake.The effects of soy protein isolate (SPI) (0%, 10%, 15%) and Ovalette (0%, 3.5%, 7%) on the quality of the cake were investigated.Physicochemical properties of the Comb flours were measu
