Actin and microtubule networks contribute differently to cell response for small and large strains
Cytoskeletal filaments provide cells with mechanical stability and organization. The main key players are actin filaments and microtubules governing a cell’s response to mechanical stimuli.

Quality Analysis of Large-leaf Yellow Tea Made from Different Tea Cultivars (Strains)
In order to explore the differences of flavor characteristics among different cultivars (strains) of large-leaf yellow tea, the main tea tree varieties (strains) in Hubei Province were used as materials to process large-leaf yellow tea.

Independent large scale duplications in multiple M. tuberculosis lineages overlapping the same genomic region [PDF]
Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of most human tuberculosis, infects one third of the world's population and kills an estimated 1.7 million people a year. With the world-wide emergence of drug resistance, and the finding of more functional

Genomic variations associated with attenuation in Mycobacterium avium subsp paratuberculosis vaccine strains [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) whole cell vaccines have been widely used tools in the control of Johne's disease in animals despite being unable to provide complete protection. Current vaccine strains derive from stocks

Linearization and computation for large-strain visco-elasticity
<abstract><p>Time-discrete numerical minimization schemes for simple visco-elastic materials in the Kelvin-Voigt rheology at high strains are not well posed because of the non-quasi-convexity of the dissipation functional. A possible solution is to resort to non-simple material models with higher-order gradients of deformations.

Worldwide occurrence of Beijing/W strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: a systematic review. [PDF]
Strains of the Beijing/W genotype family of Mycobacterium tuberculosis have caused large outbreaks of tuberculosis, sometimes involving multidrug resistance. This genetically highly conserved family of M.

Simulations of thermal softening in large strain thermoplasticity
This paper deals with numerical simulations of the thermoplastic behaviour of isotropic materials undergoing large deformations. The attention is focused on the constitutive modelling of thermal softening understood here as a reduction of the plastic ...

Flavobacterium psychrophilum: Response of Vaccinated Large Rainbow Trout to Different Strains
Background: Although Flavobacterium psychrophilum is recognized as the causative pathogen of rainbow trout fry syndrome (RTFS), often resulting in high fry mortality, it is also responsible for bacterial cold water disease (BCWD) in large and older ...

Quasistatic Hypoplasticity at Large Strains Eulerian
The isothermal quasistatic (i.e.\ acceleration neglected) hardening-free plasticity at large strains is considered, based on the standard multiplicative decomposition of the total strain and the isochoric plastic distortion. The Eulerian velocity-strain formulation is used.
