From platelets to particles: Optimizing extracellular vesicle isolation in a National Blood Centre
Abstract Background and Objectives Platelet‐derived extracellular vesicles (PEVs) are submicron, membrane‐bound particles released upon platelet activation, with a recognized role in haemostasis, inflammation and immunoregulation. PEVs remain insufficiently characterized in blood products.

Reduced Virulence of an fliC Mutant of Shiga-Toxigenic Escherichia coli O113:H21 [PDF]
ABSTRACT The contribution of flagellin to the virulence of the O113:H21 Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) strain 98NK2 was investigated in the streptomycin-treated mouse model. Groups of mice were challenged with either the wild-type STEC or a fliC deletion derivative thereof.

Abstract Stability in cerebral oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) is typically determined by alterations in cerebral blood flow (CBF). At rest, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2${P_{{\mathrm{aC}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$) and OEF exhibit a strong inverse relationship owing to the powerful influence of PaCO2${P_{{\mathrm{aC}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$

Collection Dilemmas and Performance Measures of the Value-Added Tax in Germany and Poland
In the European Union Member States, value-added tax (VAT) is undergoing a continuous process of harmonization, which was initiated in the 1960s by the introduction of the First and Second Council Directives and which resulted in the implementation of ...

DNA microarray-based assessment of virulence potential of Shiga toxin gene-carrying Escherichia coli O104:H7 isolated from feedlot cattle feces. [PDF]
Escherichia coli O104:H4, a hybrid pathotype reported in a large 2011 foodborne outbreak in Germany, has not been detected in cattle feces. However, cattle harbor and shed in the feces other O104 serotypes, particularly O104:H7, which has been associated

Chronic hepatitis in horses with persistent equine hepacivirus infection
Abstract Background Equine hepacivirus (EqHV) is closely related to hepatitis C virus (HCV), which causes persistent infection and chronic hepatitis in people. Information on persistent EqHV infection and hepatitis is limited. Objectives To report 19 cases of chronic hepatitis and persistent EqHV infection.

Multiplicity for critical and overcritical equations [PDF]
On a Riemannian compact manifold, we give existence and multiplicity results for solutions of elliptic PDE by introducing isometry invariances. When the groups we used have finite orbits, we get multiplicity results for equations with the classical ...

Molecular epidemiology of Shiga toxin‐producing O113:H21 isolates from cattle and meat
SummaryThe serotype O113:H21 is considered one of the relevant non‐O157 STEC serotypes associated with severe human infections. Due to the increased detection of O113 strains and their relationship with clinical cases, which emphasizes the importance of this serogroup as an emerging pathogen, our aim was to determine the characteristics of STEC O113 ...

Confirmation of a Non‐Transiting Planet in the Habitable Zone of the Nearby M Dwarf L 98‐59
ABSTRACT Only 40 exoplanetary systems with five or more planets are currently known. These systems are crucial for our understanding of planet formation and planet‐planet interaction. The M dwarf L 98‐59 has previously been found to show evidence of five planets, three of which are transiting.

S-regular functions which preserve a complex slice
We study global properties of quaternionic slice regular functions (also called s-regular) defined on symmetric slice domains. In particular, thanks to new techniques and points of view, we can characterize the property of being one-slice preserving in ...
