Topological and hydraulic metrics-based search space reduction for optimal re-sizing of water distribution networks

Pipe re-sizing of water distribution networks (WDNs) aims at improving the service performance to the required level, while minimizing the cost double door security bars of replacing pipes in the network.The main challenge comes from the identification of the most effective pipes to re-size from a large number of interacting components.Performing a

Spatial Distribution and Biochemical Characterization of Serine Peptidase Inhibitors in the Venom of the Brazilian Sea Anemone Anthopleura cascaia Using Mass Spectrometry Imaging

Sea anemones are known to produce a diverse array of toxins with different cysteine-rich peptide scaffolds in their venoms.The serine peptidase inhibitors, specifically Kunitz inhibitors, are an important toxin family that is believed to function as defensive peptides, as well as prevent proteolysis of other secreted anemone toxins.In this study, w
