This study utilizes Geo-Slope 2D to evaluate slope stability along Route 14G, integrating soil characteristics and historical rainfall data to analyze the slope stability based on the Factor of Safety (FoS). Key findings highlight the significant role of Soil-Water Characteristic Curves (SWCCs) and permeability coefficients in determining slope responses to varying rainfall levels.

Determine the coefficient of water permeability, waterproofing marks, chloride ion diffusion coefficients of some types of concrete commonly used in bridge construction subjected to pre-compressive and direct-compression loads. Develop a predictive model for life expectancy using reinforced concrete bridges taking into consideration the effect of the load according to the criteria of initial corrosion of reinforcement in concrete. Application of life expectancy for the structure of reinforced concrete bridges.

Previous results showed that mRNA encoding a putative aquaporin (AQP) (GenBankaccession number AF218314) is present in the tracheolar cells associated with female Aedes aegyptiMalpighian tubules. In this study, immuno-histochemistry detected the protein,AeaAQP, also in tra-cheolar cells, suggesting its involvement in water movement in the respiratory system. When expressed in Xenopus oocytes,AeaAQP increased the osmotic water permeability from15·10 )6 to 150 ·10 )6 mÆs )1 , whichwas inhibited by mercury ions. No permeability to glycerol or other solute was observed....

The high water permeability of certain biological membranes is due to the presence of aquaporin water channel proteins. AQP1 was discovered in human red cells. AQP1 has been thoroughly characterized biophysically, and the atomic structure of AQP1 has been elucidated. Ten homologs have been identified in humans. These are selectively permeated by water (aquaporins) or water plus glycerol (aquaglyceroporins). The sites of expres-sion predict the clinical phenotypes in humans. Individuals lack-ing Colton blood group antigens have mutations in the AQP1 gene. ...

The water permeability of biological membranes has been a long-standing problem in physiology, but the proteins responsible for this remained unknown until discovery of the aquaporin 1 (AQP1) water channel protein. Peter Agre received Nobel prize in Chemistry in 2003 for this discovery.

Major burn is associated with decreased gut barrier function and increased bacterial translocation (BT). This study is to investigate whether commensal microflora induce host defense and decrease BT in burn mice. Methods: First, we treated Wild type (WT) mice with antibiotics in drinking water for 4 weeks to deplete gut commensal microflora. At week 3, drinking water was supplemented with lipopolysaccharide (LPS); a ligand for TLR4, to trigger TLRs in gut.
