Accounting for food availability reveals contaminant-induced breeding impairment, food-modulated contaminant effects, and endpoint-specificity of exposure indicators in free ranging avian populations
(Elsevier, 2021-10-15)
It remains unclear how sub-lethal effects of contaminants play out in relation to other stressors encountered by free-ranging populations. Effects may be masked or influenced by interactions with field stressors such as ...
Oral vaccination stimulates neutrophil functionality and exerts protection in a Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis infection model
(Nature, 2021-08-12)
Abstract
Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (Map) causes paratuberculosis (PTB), a granulomatous enteritis in ruminants that exerts high economic impact on the dairy industry worldwide. Current vaccines have shown ...
Embedding-based real-time change point detection with application to activity segmentation in smart home time series data
(Elsevier, 2021-12-15)
[EN]Human activity recognition systems are essential to enable many assistive applications. Those systems can be sensor-based or vision-based. When sensor-based systems are deployed in real environments, they must segment ...
Critical integration in neural and cognitive systems: Beyond power-law scaling as the hallmark of soft assembly
(Elsevier, 2021-04)
Inspired by models of self-organized criticality, a family of measures quantifies long-range correlations in neural and behavioral activity in the form of self-similar (e.g., power-law scaled) patterns across a range of ...
Complex plasmon-exciton dynamics revealed through quantum dot light emission in a nanocavity
(Nature, 2021-02-26)
Plasmonic cavities can confine electromagnetic radiation to deep sub-wavelength regimes. This facilitates strong coupling phenomena to be observed at the limit of individual quantum emitters. Here, we report an extensive ...
Chemistry in Quantum Cavities: Exact Results, the Impact of Thermal Velocities, and Modified Dissociation
(American Chemical Society, 2020-09-17)
In recent years tremendous progress in the field of lightmatter interactions has unveiled that strong coupling to the modes of an optical cavity can alter chemistry even at room temperature. Despite these impressive advances, ...
Acceleration of Ammonium Phosphate Hydrolysis Using TiO2 Microspheres as a Catalyst for Hydrogen Production
(Royal Society Of Chemistry, 2021-05-01)
Titania microspheres are considered an adequate material with low cost and easily attainable pathways, and can be utilized in photocatalytic H-2 production to solve the energy crisis. Spherical porous titanium dioxide ...
Nobiletin Enhances the Development and Quality of Bovine Embryos In Vitro During Two Key Periods of Embryonic Genome Activation
(Nature, 2021-06-03)
In vitro culture can alter the development and quality of bovine embryos. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate whether nobiletin supplementation during EGA improves embryonic development and blastocyst quality and if it affects ...
Clinical features and outcomes of Streptococcus anginosus group infective Endocarditis: a multicenter matched cohort study
(Oxford University Press, 2021-03-29)
[EN] Background. Although Streptococcus anginosus group (SAG) endocarditis is considered a severe disease associated with abscess
formation and embolic events, there is limited evidence to support this assumption.
Methods. ...
Average Game Physical Demands and the Most Demanding Scenarios of Basketball Competition in Various Age Groups
(Sciendo, 2021-07)
The purpose of this study was to compare average physical demands and the most demanding 60-s scenarios of basketball match-play between five different age groups. Sixty-four male basketball players from five different age ...
