Supranational surveillance of antimicrobial resistance: The legacy of the last decade and proposals for the future

, 2010
Antimicrobial resistance among clinically important bacteria is widely acknowledged as a major global public health threat. A decade ago, several supranational surveillance initiatives were introduced. Few of them are still ongoing, and only one features

Analysis of the Shaft Resistance of Nondisplacement Piles in Sand [PDF]

, 2008
The paper examines, using numerical modelling, the problem of the limit shaft resistance of non-displacement piles installed in sands. The modelling makes use of an advanced, two-surface-plasticity constitutive model.

Role of PMR4 and PDLP1 in priming of early acting penetration defense by resistance-inducing β-amino acids

iScience
Summary: R-β-homoserine (RBH) and β-aminobutyric acid (BABA) induce resistance against the oomycete Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis (Hpa) in Arabidopsis, which is based on priming of multiple defense layers, including early acting penetration resistance ...

Estimating Penetration Resistance in Agricultural Soils of Ardabil Plain Using Artificial Neural Network and Regression Methods

مجله آب و خاک, 2017
Introduction: Penetration resistance is one of the criteria for evaluating soil compaction. It correlates with several soil properties such as vehicle trafficability, resistance to root penetration, seedling emergence, and soil compaction by farm ...

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

A Numerical and Energy-Based Prediction Framework for Hall Anchor Penetration in Soft-over-Stiff Clays

Applied Sciences
The accurate prediction of anchor penetration depth is critical for assessing the potential risk of emergency anchoring to subsea infrastructure. In this study, a three-dimensional coupled Eulerian–Lagrangian (CEL) model was developed to investigate the ...

Practical Implications of the Availability of Multiple Measurements to Classify Agricultural Soil Compaction: A Case-Study in The Netherlands

Agronomy, 2022
Soil compaction is a severe threat to agricultural productivity, as it can lead to yield losses ranging from 5% to 40%. Quantification of the state of compaction can help farmers and land managers to determine the optimal management to avoid these losses.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Global burden of bacterial antimicrobial resistance 1990-2021: a systematic analysis with forecasts to 2050 [PDF]

Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses an important global health challenge in the 21st century. A previous study has quantified the global and regional burden of AMR for 2019, followed with additional publications that provided more detailed ...
