Once in the human body, dioxins are absorbed into fat cells, where they persist for long periods of time; the half-life of dioxin in humans has been estimated to be between 7 and 11 years.
These biofilms may harbour coliform bacteria where they persist and survive remedial actions such as chlorination.
Pesticides and herbicides are sprayed onto fields, and they can waft or wash into adjacent streams, where they persist and float downstream.
Advanced economies must continue to deal with crisis legacies, including non-performing loans, where they persist.
Though unable to persist in host cells in vitro, purMCD mutants of F. tularensis remain able to escape from the host cell phagosome prior to fusion with the lysosome, where they persist in the host cytosol before being cleared [16].
LPAI viruses multiply primarily within the digestive tract, are shed into the environment where they persist for an extended period of time [10], and become a critical reservoir for sustaining LPAI virus in waterfowl populations [23].
Previous work has shown that BXs can be released into soil, where they persist (Krogh et al. 2006).
Over time, labeled progeny from the JZ expand upward to fill the entire infundibulum, where they persist for at least 1 year without migration into the IFE.
p-MyoFbs appear temporarily, shortly after infarction, while non-p-MyoFb appear at the latest steps of healing where they persist for years in the scar tissue.
Unlike radiographic contrast media, which diffuse into the tissue and may obscure smaller vessels, microbubble echo-enhancing agents are confined to the vascular lumen, where they persist until they dissolve.
