Different Fish-Eating Habits and Cytokine Production in Chronic Urticaria with and without Sensitization against the Fish-Parasite Anisakis simplex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BackgroundAnisakis simplex sensitization has been associated with acute, but also with chronic urticaria. The objective of this study is to characterize chronic urticaria with (CU+) and without sensitization (CU-) against the ubiquitous fish parasite A ...

Measuring the Hall Effect in Hysteretic Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The authors highlight common pitfalls in measuring the Hall effect: in hysteretic magnets, improper data processing can create signals that look exotic but are not real. This Perspective explains the origin of these artifacts and presents practical measurement strategies that help researchers identify reliable Hall responses in complex magnetic ...

Toxoplasma Parasite Twisting Motion Mechanically Induces Host Cell Membrane Fission to Complete Invasion within a Protective Vacuole

open access: yes, 2018
International audienceTo invade cells, the parasite Toxoplasma gondii injects a multi-unit nanodevice into the target cell plasma membrane (PM). The core nanodevice, which is composed of the RhOptry Neck (RON) protein complex, connects Toxoplasma and ...

Combined effects of parasitism and anthropogenic stressors on behaviour and biomarkers in the freshwater amphipod Gammarus fossarum: Dominant and additive effects prevail

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Chemical contaminants, elevated temperature, and parasitism are expected to impose multiple stresses on aquatic organisms. Their sublethal effects on fitness may be mediated through multiple traits, and combine in additive or interactive ways.

Toward a Unified Mechanistic Understanding of Polymer Electrolytes for Advanced Solid‐State Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Polymer electrolytes (PEs) are often indiscriminately grouped as “solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs)”, despite fundamental differences in their ion‐transport mechanisms. This Perspective establishes a mechanism‐based framework that distinguishes gel, quasi‐solid, and all‐solid polymer electrolytes based on their dominant ion‐transport pathways.
