[EN] The maintenance of ionic homeostasis is essential for cell viability, thus the activity of plasma membrane ion transporters must be tightly controlled. Previous studies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae revealed that the ...

[EN] Abstract Introduction Salinity and drought are the most important environmental stress conditions reducing crop yields worldwide and limiting the distribution of wild plants in nature. Soil salinity, especially ...

[EN] Bupleurum tenuissimum is a rare species in Spain, which became extinct in recent decades in many localities, including protected areas. In the study area, the ¿Albufera¿ Natural Park (SE Spain), the species was present ...

[EN] In this work, an isothermal pore network model has been utilized to investigate ion transport and crystallization in layerd porous media during drying. Said network consists of two distinct layers each with a different ...

[EN] Electrodialysis is utilized for the deionization of saline streams, usually formed by strong electrolytes. Recently, interest in new applications involving the transport of weak electrolytes through ion-exchangemembranes ...

[EN] Current agricultural problems, such as the decline of freshwater and fertile land, foster saline agriculture development. Salicornia and Sarcocornia species, with a long history of human consumption, are ideal models ...

[EN] We have identified QDR2 in a screening for genes able to confer tolerance to sodium and/or lithium stress upon overexpression. Qdr2 is a multidrug transporter of the major facilitator superfamily, originally described ...

In the present work galvanostatic experiments are conducted with an electrodialysis cell in order to study the passage of Ni 2+ ions present in chromic acid solutions through a Nafion cation-exchange membrane. The competing ...
