Measuring the bacterial growth potential of seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) feed water is an issue that is receiving growing attention. This study developed and demonstrated the applicability of the flow-cytometry (FCM)-based bacterial growth potential (BGP) method to assess the biofouling potential in SWRO systems using natural microbial…[Read more]

05) and EPCs transplantation (p<0.05) were both associated with a reduction in plaque size compared to the control saline injection. The antiproliferative and antiatherogenic effects of EPCs were further enhanced by the overexpression of DDAH2 (p<0.05, DDAH2-EPCs vs. EPCs). Furthermore, DDAH2-EPCs transplantation significantly increased…[Read more]
