Partisanship, Ethnicity and Tax Policy Perceptions: Investigating Public Responses to Ghana's E‐Levy
International Social Science Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines the determinants of public opinion on Ghana's electronic transaction levy (E‐Levy), focusing on party politics and ethnic identity roles. The E‐Levy, introduced in 2022, imposed a 1.75% tax on electronic transactions, sparking a nationwide debate. A review of E‐Levy implementation across Africa revealed mixed outcomes, with

Comparison of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) content in milk of ewes and goats with the same dietary regimen [PDF]
, 2003 Milk fat is an important source of potential anticarcinogens named conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). The c9, t11-CLA is the major isomer and it is produced by ruminal hydrogenation of linoleic acid that leads first to vaccenic (11t-18:1) and finally to ...

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The ability of ruminants to mobilise and restore body reserves (BR) over time, referred to as BR dynamics, is currently considered an interesting biological component to be included in breeding programs targeting enhanced BR resilience. However, genetic studies of proxies for BR levels and BRD remain scarce, particularly in small ruminants ...

Simple Python‐based methods for analysis and drift‐correction of STM images
Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.Abstract A successful scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) experiment relies on both delicate sample preparation and measurement, and careful image filtering and analysis to provide clear and solid results. Processing and analysis of STM images may result in a tricky task, due to the complexity and specificity of the probed systems.

Cytoarchitecture and myeloarchitecture of the sheep auditory cortex
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.This article describes the cyto‐ and myeloarchitecture of the sheep auditory cortex. It outlines a six‐layered cortical organization, with variations in cellular types and densities. The potential location of the primary auditory cortex is indicated by parvalbumin immunostaining.
