Status of ITER neutral beam cell remote handling system

, 2013
The ITER neutral beam cell will contain up to three heating neutral beams and one diagnostic neutral beam, and four upper ports. Though manual maintenance work is envisaged within the cell, when containment is breached, or the radiological protection is ...

Body size of male Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) at introduction of a 5‐week LD12:12 winter signal influences their decision to mature early or smoltify

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sexual maturation of male Atlantic salmon post‐smolts (‘jacking’) is undesired in aquaculture and seems to occur due to the intensification in modern facilities. Maturation depends on internal and external factors (temperature, photoperiod, feed availability, energy levels, body size, genetic background) that act on the brain‐pituitary‐gonad ...

A skin explant model for studying UV‐induced DNA damage and repair

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
The study describes an ex vivo skin model that preserves the natural physiology of the skin while addressing ethical concerns related to animal research. We demonstrate this model maintains key characteristics and physiological responses of in vivo skin during short incubation periods. Moreover, this model requires fewer mice than in vivo testing, thus

Experimental infection of sheep with Bovine leukemia virus (BLV): Minimum dose of BLV-FLK cells and cell-free BLV and neutralization activity of natural antibodies

Revista Argentina de Microbiología, 2019
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is an important cattle pathogen that causes major economic losses worldwide, especially in dairy farms. The use of animal models provides valuable insight into the pathogenesis of viral infections. Experimental infections of sheep have been conducted using blood from BLV-infected cattle, infectious BLV molecular clones or ...

Activation of BLV Transcription by NF-κB and Tax

Virology, 1998
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is the causative agent of bovine leukosis, a naturally occurring fatal disease in cattle. BLV transcription is regulated by cellular transcription factors and the virally encoded oncoprotein Tax. In this report, we investigated the functional role of the putative NF-kappa B binding site recently identified in the BLV ...

Quality of life for braille users: A scoping review

Review of Education, Volume 13, Issue 2, August 2025.
Abstract Quality of life (QoL) encompasses well‐being, life satisfaction and happiness, enabling individuals to lead meaningful lives. Literacy, the ability to read and write, is essential for inclusion in education, employment and society. For people with blindness or low vision (BLV), braille is a critical tool for accessing literacy.

Cell Infectivity in relation to bovine leukemia virus gp51 and p24 in bovine milk exosomes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Exosomes are small membranous microvesicles (40-100 nm in diameter) and are extracellularly released from a wide variety of cells. Exosomes contain microRNA, mRNA, and cellular proteins, which are delivered into recipient cells via these exosomes, and ...

Comparison of agar gel immunodiffusion test, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and PCR in diagnostics of enzootic bovine leukosis [PDF]

, 2005
Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) is a retrovirus that induces a chronic infection in cattle. Once infected, cattle remain virus carriers for life and start to show an antibody response within a few weeks after infection.
