In this work, we evaluated the sex ratio, fecundity, egg volume, and reproductive output of the marine ostracod species Xestoleberis rotunda in the Red Sea, Egypt.The sex ratio was biased towards females (2.2: 1).The ovigerous and non-ovigerous females represent 41.8 and 58.2%, respectively.The brood pouch of X.rotunda contains vitellogenic stages,
Surface application of photocatalyst in cement-based materials could endow it with photocatalytic properties, however, the weak adhesion between photocatalyst coatings Pens and the substrates may result in poor durability in outdoor environments.In this study, TiO2@SiO2 core-shell nanocomposites with different coating thicknesses were synthesized b
