Accelerated germination of aged recalcitrant seeds by K+-rich bulk oxygen nanobubbles

Scientific Reports, 2023
Bulk nanobubbles, measuring less than 200 nm in water, have shown their salient properties in promoting growth in various species of plants and orthodox seeds, and as potential drug-delivery carriers in medicine.

Multiple decades of stocking has resulted in limited hatchery introgression in wild brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) populations of Nova Scotia

Evolutionary Applications, 2020
Many populations of freshwater fishes are threatened with losses, and increasingly, the release of hatchery individuals is one strategy being implemented to support wild populations. However, stocking of hatchery individuals may pose long‐term threats to

Eggshell and Feed Microbiota Do Not Represent Major Sources of Gut Anaerobes for Chickens in Commercial Production

Microorganisms, 2021
In this study, we addressed the origin of chicken gut microbiota in commercial production by a comparison of eggshell and feed microbiota with caecal microbiota of 7-day-old chickens, using microbiota analysis by 16S rRNA sequencing.

Engineering of Eu dopant segregation in colquiriite-type fluoride single crystal scintillators

AIP Advances, 2017
Colquiriite-type Eu-doped LiCaAlF6 and LiSrAlF6 (Eu:LiCAF and Eu:LiSAF) scintillator single crystals were grown using Al metal as a starting material to improve the Eu dopant segregation.

Stress during Commercial Hatchery Processing Induces Long-Time Negative Cognitive Judgement Bias in Chickens

Animals, 2021
Worldwide, billions of laying hen chicks are incubated and processed under highly industrialised circumstances every year, which, as we have previously shown, has long-lasting effects.
