Vectorial capacity, basic reproduction number, force of infection and all that: formal notation to complete and adjust their classical concepts and equations [PDF]
A dimensional analysis of the classical equations related to the dynamics of vector-borne infections is presented. It is provided a formal notation to complete the expressions for the Ross' threshold theorem, the Macdonald's basic reproduction "rate" and

Quality of strawberries after storage is reduced by a short delay to cooling [PDF]
The effects of delay to cooling and storage were evaluated on postharvest quality and decay of fresh harvested strawberries. 'Chandler' strawberries were forced-air precooled after delays of 0 or 6 hours at 30°C to study the effect of delaying precooling
