Background Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an arthritogenic alphavirus (family Togaviridae), transmitted by Aedes species mosquitoes. CHIKV re-emerged in 2004 with multiple outbreaks worldwide and recently reached the Americas where it has infected over a ...

Analyzing Insect-Plant Predation Data By Bayesian Nonparametrics [PDF]
In the prospect of ecology and biology, studying insect-plant predation will considerably contribute to pest control, benefit agriculture and afforestation, and also help people to better understand insect-plant co-evolution. Therefore, we are motivated to do two work in this study.

Single Cell Protein Production From Ethanol: Model‐Based Bioreactor Operation at Industrial Scale
ABSTRACT Alternative fermentation feedstocks such as ethanol can be produced from CO2 via electrocatalytic processes that coproduce O2. In this study, industrial‐scale fermentation of ethanol with pure O2 for single cell protein (SCP) production was studied using a modeling approach.

Evaluating vector competence for Yellow fever in the Caribbean
The mosquito-borne disease, Yellow fever (YF), has been largely controlled via mass delivery of an effective vaccine and mosquito control interventions. However, there are warning signs that YF is re-emerging in both Sub-Saharan Africa and South America.

Engineering antibodies with cancer‐associated binding sites
This review describes antibodies that perform direct/indirect roles in cancer treatment by binding to effective targets and discusses how antibodies kill tumors and modulate tumor microenvironment through these targets. The classification of expression systems for antibody production is summarized to guide appropriate selection based on different ...

Advancing Frontiers in Insect Vector Control
INSECT control designed to prevent human disease has been carried on for only half a century-but this short epoch is characterized by an almost incredible range of technical, administrative, and organizational developments. It is regrettable that only a few of those believed to be important in advancing insect control as a public health practice can be
