Claw growth rates in a subset of adult, indoor, domestic cats (Felis catus). [PDF]

Vet Dermatol
Background – Keratinised tissues, such as nails and claws, accumulate hormones over time; the claws' hormone concentrations are being explored as potential biomarkers. Timelines for hormone deposition can be established if claw growth rates are known. Hormone concentration within cat claws has been recently evaluated, yet the growth rates of cat claws ...

Polymer and photo‐selective covers on plant and fruit development: A review

Agronomy Journal, Volume 115, Issue 6, Page 3074-3091, November/December 2023., 2023
Abstract Growers have increasingly adopted protected cropping in tunnels or greenhouses to ensure sustainability and continuous crop productivity against a backdrop of climate change. The predominant types of covers used in controlled‐environment agriculture are polymer‐based shade nets or structures covered with polymer sheets.

Spatially resolved detection of small molecules from press‐dried plant tissue using MALDI imaging

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 11, Issue 5, September-October 2023., 2023
Abstract Premise Matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI‐MSI) is a chemical imaging method that can visualize spatial distributions of particular molecules. Plant tissue imaging has so far mostly used cryosectioning, which can be impractical for the preparation of large‐area imaging samples, such as full flower ...

Noncompartmental pharmacokinetics of three intravenous mycophenolate mofetil concentrations in healthy Standardbred mares

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 222-234, June 2023., 2023
Background – Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) is the prodrug of mycophenolic acid (MPA) which acts as an immunosuppressive agent. During the biotransformation of MMF to MPA, additional metabolites including MPA phenol glucuronide (MPAG), MPA acyl glucuronide (AcMPAG) and MPA phenol glucoside (MPG) are formed.
