Presence of Salmonella and Campylobacter spp. in Wild Small Mammals on Organic Farms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The presence of Salmonella and Campylobacter spp. in rodents and insectivores (n 282) was investigated on organic farms. Infections were encountered in house mice (8 of 83 Campylobacter positive and 1 of 83 Salmonella sp.

Mounting a specific immune response increases energy expenditure of the subterranean rodent Ctenomys talarum (tuco-tuco): Implications for intraspecific and interspecific variation in immunological traits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It was recently hypothesised that specific induced defences, which require substantial time and resources and are mostly beneficial against repeated infections, are more likely to be favoured in 'slow-living-pace' species.

Engineering Highly Cellularized Living Materials via Mechanical Agitation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A mechanical agitation strategy is developed to engineer highly cellularized living materials, achieving cell densities of up to 1 billion cells per milliliter. By precisely tuning properties such as stiffness and toughness in blood clots, the approach is validated in both in vitro and in vivo studies.

Graded Hydroxyapatite Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Structures for Bone Tissue Engineering Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the role of triply periodic minimal structures in load bearing bone tissue engineering applications. Research uses a combination of mechanical testing, material characterization, and in vitro tests to study the impact of TPMS lattice structures (gyroid, lidinoid and split‐P).

Rats: an ecologically-based approach for managing a global problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Many people have problems with pest rodents. Rats eat our crops, contaminate our stored food, damage our buildings and possessions and spread dangerous diseases to people and livestock.

3D‐Printed Scaffolds Promote Enhanced Spinal Organoid Formation for Use in Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
3D‐printed organoid scaffolds with microscale channels are developed to enhance spinal cord injury recovery by guiding region‐specific spinal neural progenitor cells. These scaffolds promote axonal growth, cell maturation, and neuronal network formation.

Isolation of Rice Stripe Virus Preparation from Viruliferous Small Brown Planthoppers and Mechanic Inoculation on Rice

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
Tenuiviruses can infect the plants of the family Poaceae, and cause serious loss of crops, particularly rice and maize, in South-Eastern Asian countries.

Diversity in small mammals from eastern Lake Turkana, Kenya [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Rodents and insectivores were surveyed, using live trapping, at seven sites on the eastern side of Lake Turkana, one of the remotest parts of Kenya, and at study areas of biological distinctiveness, such as Sibiloi National Park and the Mount Kulal ...

Novel Drug‐Testing Platform for Vascular Injury‐induced Intimal Hyperplasia Using a Microphysiological System

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study develops a 3D vascular injury model using a microphysiological system that mimics key features of intimal hyperplasia. Antiproliferative drugs reduced VSMC proliferation but worsened endothelialdenudation. A combination of diphenyleneiodonium and quercetin effectively reduced proliferation and migration of VSMC and inflammation while ...

Animal‐Free Setup of a 3D Mature Adipocyte‐Macrophage Co‐Culture to Induce Inflammation In Vitro

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A completely animal‐free 3D co‐culture is developed using human fat cells and immune cells. Animal‐based materials are replaced with gellan gum hydrogel and a serum‐free medium. Immune cells are effectively activated, producing specific inflammatory signals.
