Real Time Airborne Monitoring for Disaster and Traffic Applications [PDF]

, 2011
Remote sensing applications like disaster or mass event monitoring need the acquired data and extracted information within a very short time span. Airborne sensors can acquire the data quickly and on-board processing combined with data downlink is the ...

The Microbiologic Quality of the Air in Broiler Houses

Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
The aim of this paper was to assess the microbiologic quality of air in broiler houses. The number of bacteria (mesophile, staphylococci, streptococci and gram-negatives) and fungi was determined in 6 broiler houses with chicken of different ages (1-6 ...

Linking hierarchical assembly rules and diversity patterns of soil fungi in primary succession

Oikos, EarlyView.
Ecological succession affects natural communities in numerous ways, including deterministic (e.g. environmental filtering and biotic interactions) and stochastic processes (e.g. ecological drift and homogeneous dispersal). These processes may act across different spatial scales to set local communities, including environmental drivers characterizing ...

Lichen‐Derived Mineral Residue as a Renewable Particulate Filler in Polylactic Acid Biocomposites: Structure, Melt Rheology, Viscoelastic, and Flexural Behavior

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Lichen residue, a renewable mineral‐organic material, was melt compounded with polylactic acid and triacetin in a twin‐screw extruder. ABSTRACT A lichen‐derived natural material, known as “höllük” in southeastern Turkey, is introduced as a renewable filler for polylactic acid (PLA).

A walk in the park—Identifying healthy greenspaces using scents

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As urbanisation accelerates globally, access to nature is increasingly recognised as vital for public health and wellbeing. We captured and analysed plant‐emitted airborne ‘scent signatures’ across Oxford's urban greenspaces to assess their potential health relevance.

Inactivation Mechanisms of Escherichia coli in Simulants of Respiratory and Environmental Aerosol Droplets

Atmosphere
The airborne transmission of disease relies on the ability of microbes to survive aerosol transport and, subsequently, cause infection when interacting with a host.

Natural antibacterial silk produced by feeding silkworms with human hair derived carbon dots

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
Blue‐fluorescent and antibacterial carbon dots, prepared from Crinis Carbonisatus (a traditional Chinese medicine made by calcinating human hair), are fed to silkworms to produce multifunctional silk, which retains its inherent mechanical properties, exhibits blue fluorescence, possesses antibacterial activity, and promotes the wound healing of rats as
