Age-related presence and genetic diversity of Campylobacter spp. in young and adult yellow-legged gulls (Larus michahellis) in Croatia. [PDF]
Minimum spanning tree showing Campylobacter jejuni sequence types (STs) according to age group (A) and locations (B). Regarding genetic diversity, no significant differences were found between age groups and locations. There is no clustering of specific genotypes, suggesting that all sampled yellow‐legged gulls have similar exposure to Campylobacter ...

History and prospects of Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis, the most common palmoplantar keratoderma in east Asian populations. [PDF]
Abstract Nagashima‐type palmoplantar keratosis (NPPK) has been shown to represent a form of autosomal recessive palmoplantar keratosis due to biallelic pathological variants of SERPINB7, which encodes a serine protease inhibitor expressed in the epidermis.

Proteolytic and Textural Parameters of Oil-Ripened Semi-Hard Goat Cheese. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The proteolytic and textural properties of semi‐hard goat cheese ripened in a 50:50 mixture of extra virgin olive oil and refined sunflower oil were investigated. Five batches were divided into three groups: group 1 (control; 60 days air‐ripened), group 2 (10 days air and 50 days oil‐ripened), and group 3 (20 days air and 40 days oil‐ripened).

Application of environmental DNA metabarcoding and quantitative PCR to detect blooming jellyfish in a temperate bay of northern China. [PDF]
We developed eDNA metabarcoding and quantitative PCR for the detection and assessment of jellyfish taxa in the temperate Yantai Sishili Bay (YSB) and estimated the spatial distribution of Aurelia coerulea. Our results demonstrate the potential of two eDNA techniques in jellyfish biomass investigation and jellyfish taxa detecting.

Seismotectonically Active Zones in the Dinarides [PDF]
Seismotectonically active zones are formed due to displacements of segments of the Adriatic micro-plate that differ in size and in their rate of movement, and by the resistance of the rock masses of the Dinarides.
