A Phenotypic and Genetic Analysis of Still Born Piglets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Still born piglets (SB) are a major economic cost to the pig industry. Not only is there a cost associated with the loss of a potential finished pig, there are also costs associated with the gestation of that animal to the sow.

Biointegrated Battery‐Based Electroceuticals

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Biointegrated batteries go beyond passive power to serve as active therapeutic platforms for delivering programmable electrical cues and bioactive agents. This review examines their mechanisms and applications and provides a framework to guide battery‐based therapeutic design and clinical translation.

Profiles of colour, minerals, amino acids and fatty acids of musculus longissimus thoracis et lumborum of Ghungroo pigs

open access: yesIndian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2016
Carcass composition and meat quality were evaluated in Ghungroo, the first registered indigenous pig breed of India. Ghungroo pigs (16 gilts and 26 barrows) were slaughtered at the age of 10 months for evaluating the different parameters.

The karyotype of the pig

open access: yesHereditas, 2009
The karyotype of the pig (Sus scrofa domestica) is studied and characterized after applying G-band and C-band staining procedures. The material examined originates from 5 boars and 5 gilts and consists of cells from fibroblast and lymphoblast cultures. The identity of the X-chromosome is discussed.

Nanoporous Silica Embedded in Nanoporous Platinum: A Versatile Composite Coating for Implant‐Associated Drug Delivery From Neuronal Electrodes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Nanoporous silica nanoparticles incorporated in nanoporous platinum offer the possibility for implant‐associated drug delivery from neuronal electrodes. ABSTRACT Sensorineural hearing loss, resulting from damage to the hair cells of the inner ear, profoundly impairs quality of life.

Flexible Chemiresistive Chitosan‐Glycerol Sensors on Laser‐Induced Graphene Electrodes for Room‐Temperature Ammonia Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Flexible Chitosan‐glycerol sensor integrated with porous laser‐induced graphene (LIG) electrodes enable room‐temperature chemiresistive detection of ammonia (NH3) and proof‐of‐concept detection of fish spoilage. ABSTRACT We report a metal‐free sensor platform combining laser induced graphene (LIG) electrodes with drop‐deposited, glycerol‐plasticized ...

Number and mode of inheritance of QTL influencing backfat thickness on SSC2p in Sino-European pig pedigrees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background In the pig, multiple QTL associated with growth and fatness traits have been mapped to chromosome 2 (SSC2) and among these, at least one shows paternal expression due to the IGF2-intron3-G3072A substitution. Previously published results on the

Microneedles Mediated Delivery of Nanodiamonds for Quantum Sensing of Free Radicals in Skin Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Fluorescent nanodiamonds are nanoscale sensors capable of monitoring cellular stress responses. However, to function effectively, they must be delivered into cells or tissues. Here, we demonstrate their application in the skin by developing a dissolvable microneedle platform that dissolves after skin insertion, enabling the delivery of nanodiamonds ...

The Pig Farm Manager for Modelling Pig Production Systems [PDF]

open access: yes
Before setting up or changing a pig farm operation, the consequences of the farm set up must be explored and changes planned. To calculate technical and economic consequences a farm manager model for pig production systems, the Pig Farm Manager, has been
