Spectral photon-counting CT offers novel potentialities to achieve quantitative decomposition of material components, in comparison with traditional energy-integrating CT or dual-energy CT. Nonetheles…
Although food reward plays a large role in learning and behavioral experiments, there have been few studies examining the most motivating food reward for pigeons. Brown (1969) found that pigeons had a…
Four rumen-cannulated calves were used in a block design to study changes in rumen fermentation end-products and rumen digesta kinetics after weaning. Calves were weaned at 5 wk of age and had access …
We studied the leaching of copper and zinc from particles of discarded boat paint added to tap water (pH 7.3) and rain water (pH=4.7), simulating conditions encountered during the hosing or runoff of …
BACKGROUND: Surgical site infections (SSIs) after neurosurgery are potentially life-threatening and entail great costs. SSIs may occur from airborne bacteria in the operating room, and ultraclean air …
Low birthweight is a risk factor for later adverse health. Here the impact of placentally mediated prenatal growth restriction followed by postnatal nutrient abundance on growth, glucose metabolism an…
In a standing wave tank responses of fish to sound stimuli used to investigate the hearing capacity of fish may perhaps be affected by unintended stimulation of the lateral line. Uniform oscillatory w…
Antibodies against infectious laryngotracheitis virus, influenavirus and Newcastle disease virus were not demonstrated. The prevalence of infections caused by adeno- and reovirus in egg-laying flocks …
Extreme dilutions, especially homeopathic remedies of 30c, 200c, and higher potencies, are prepared by a process of serial dilution of 1:100 per step. As a result, dilution factors of 10(60), 10(400),…
Viral clearance is a critical aspect of biopharmaceutical manufacturing process validation. To determine the viral clearance efficacy of downstream chromatography and filtration steps, live viral "spi…
Relatively little is known about protozoan parasites in African animals. Here we investigated the occurrence of protozoan parasites in mammals from South Africa. Oocysts of protozoan parasites were de…
Suitably controlled serosurveillance surveys are essential for evaluating human papillomavirus (HPV) immunization programs. A panel of plasma samples from 18-year-old females was assembled, the majori…
Paraquat, a broad spectrum herbicide, has differential effects in mice depending upon whether a purified or a cereal-based diet is fed. Male ICR mice were fed either a cereal-based closed-formula diet…
The protection against diabetes and cardiovascular disease provided by whole-grain cereal consumption has been attributed to the fiber and micronutrients present in the bran. But exactly how this occu…
Although behavioral and endocrine consequences of acute exposure to stressors have been extensively studied, little is known about how simultaneous exposure to two different stressors interacts to ind…
The aim of this study was to evaluate the seroprevalence of West Nile virus (WNV) and Newcastle disease virus (NDV) in wild and domestic birds from Romania. During 2011-2014, 159 plasma samples from w…
Formation of intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds in 2-thiophen-3-ylmalonic acid, the precursor of a polythiophene derivative bearing two carboxylic acid groups in the side chain, have been examin…
The objective of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of clonidine during pregnancy compared with previously published data in nonpregnant subjects. Serial blood and urine sample…
Maternal folate status during pregnancy may influence central nervous system (CNS) development in offspring. However, the recommended intakes of folic acid for women of childbearing age differ among c…
