Carers’ attitudes towards direct payments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Direct payments are becoming an increasingly prevalent form of personalised support in social services. Spending on direct payments for adults in England has more than doubled from £450 million in 2007-08 to £1.2 billion in 2012 ...

Antimicrobial Efficacy of a Taurolidine‐Based Antimicrobial Compound on Contaminated Surfaces Simulated in a Standardized 4‐Field Test

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
As implantable medical devices become indispensable to modern medicine, a silent threat grows alongside them: device‐associated infections. Despite decades of antibiotic innovation, infection rates keep climbing, costing lives and billions in healthcare expenses.

Change in Farm Production Structure Within Different CAP Schemes – an LP Modelling Approach [PDF]

open access: yes
After accession to European Union in 2004 direct payments became very important income source also for farmers in Slovenia. But agricultural policy in place at accession changed significantly in year 2007 as result of CAP reform implementation.

From RNA to DNA: How Cargo Identity Reprograms Lipid Nanoparticle Architecture and Function

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The evolution of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) spans from RNA‐LNPs, used in mRNA vaccines, to DNA‐LNPs, ideal for gene therapies. Emerging bionano architectures, decorated with DNA and plasma proteins, pave the way for advanced DNA‐based therapies that are more stable, targeted, and customizable.

How cost-effective are direct payments to organic farms for achieving environmental policy targets? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Since 1993, the Swiss federal agricultural policy has been providing financial support for organic farming via area payments. Like other voluntary agri-environmental measures (AEM), these payments are intended as incentives for farmers to comply with ...

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Risk and Subsidies in Czech Agriculture - an ex-ante Analysis of Farmers´ Decision-making [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper deals with the ex-ante analysis of the effects of farm subsidies on farm behaviour. Beside that the risk factor is implemented in the farm model to reflect and quantify potential (negative) impact on farm results.

Atomistic Mechanisms Triggered by Joule Heating Effects in Metallic Cu‐Bi Nanowires for Spintronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bi doped metallic Cu nanowires are promising for spintronics thanks to the stabilization of a giant spin Hall effect. However, heat resulting from current injection forces Bi to leave solution, forcing segregation into monoatomic decorations which evolve into coherent crystalline aggregates.
