The emergence of porcine epidemic diarrhoea in Croatia: molecular characterization and serology

BMC Veterinary Research, 2019
Background Porcine epidemic diarrhoea (PED) is an emergent/re-emergent viral pig disease (caused by the virus belonging to the Coronaviridae family, in specific the Alphacoronavirus genus) of global importance. Clinical presentation is characterized with

Reducing Coercive Field and Improving Endurance in Ferroelectric Epitaxial Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 Thin Films via Novel Interface Layer Approach

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An ultrathin samarium doped hafnium zirconium oxide (Sm:HZO) underlayer reduces coercive field by ∼25% and enhances endurance tenfold in epitaxial ferroelectric HZO overlayer. The Sm:HZO interface allows redox mitigated oxygen exchange and lowers switching barriers, achieving stable polarization with enhanced endurance performance.

Livestock Tango: U.S. and Latin America Dance Together, but Who Will Lead?

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the competitiveness between Latin American and U.S. livestock and meat sectors. We employ a computable general equilibrium modeling framework to evaluate two scenarios: coordinated improvements in Latin American productivity, transport efficiency, and market access (Scenario I), and the minimum productivity gains required ...

Consumer Preferences for Craft Beer: The Interplay of Localness and Advertising Language

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores the influence of the language of the label, origin of production, and origin of brewing ingredients on Croatian consumers' preferences and willingness to pay for organic craft beer. Employing an online survey and a choice experiment among 223 Croatian alcohol consumers, we find that while there's a willingness to pay a ...

PAMPS PolyHIPEs: The Role of Shape, Porosity, and Sulfonate Group Density on Metal‐Ion Adsorption From Water

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates how pore architecture, shape, and sulfonate group density influence the adsorption of Zn2+, Fe3+, and Al3+ by PAMPS polyHIPEs. Beads and monoliths exhibit distinct transport behavior compared to commercial 77H resin. The results offer design guidelines for optimizing ion‐exchange polymers to improve performance in water ...

Whole‐bone shape of hominoid manual proximal phalanges

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Functional morphologists have long noted that skeletal adaptations in primate phalanges reflect locomotor behavior. While most studies have successfully used two‐dimensional measurements to quantify general features of phalanx shape, a whole‐bone three‐dimensional analysis may better capture more subtle aspects of phalanx morphology that have ...
