Response of Fecal Bacteria and Fungi to Tannin‐Rich Diets in Sika Deer (Cervus nippon): Evidence from Both Feeding Experiments and Field Investigations

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Feeding with tannin‐rich diets altered the fecal microbial composition and increased the relative abundance of tannin‐degrading microbes. We hypothesize that fecal bacteria and fungi may play important roles in helping herbivores adapt to tannin‐rich diets but respond to different tannin concentrations varies.

Kaempferol Protects Intestinal Health in Chinese Forest Musk Deer Possibly by Regulating Intestinal Microbiota and Inhibiting the NF‐κB/NLRP3 Signaling Pathway

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Kaempferol modulates the tryptophan metabolism pathway by increasing the abundances of Christensenellaceae R7 group, Bacteroides, and Blautia and reducing that of Rikenellaceae RC9 gut group, thereby significantly increasing the levels of ILA and IAA. This process inhibits the activation of NF‐κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway, reduces pro‐inflammatory factor

Nitrogen efficiency of dairy cattle : from protein evaluation to ammonia emission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Diet optimization contributes considerably to increased nitrogen efficiency of dairy cattle, resulting in reduced nitrogen losses. This thesis focuses on three themes: the potential advances in protein evaluation systems for ruminants, the relationship ...

Fats, Fire and Bronze Age Funerary Rites: Organic Residue Analysis of Wide Horizontal Rim Vessels From Burial Contexts in Northwest Portugal

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents the first GC‐MS–based analyses of wide horizontal rim vessels with well‐defined funerary contexts, from Middle Bronze Age Portugal (Quinta do Amorim 2 and Pego). Organic residues from two vessels revealed ruminant fats and plant oils, alongside molecular markers of heat exposure.

‘Clinging Together Against the Dark’: A Pragmatist Reading of Sustainability Conversations

open access: yesBusiness Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we present a typology of managers' interpretations of sustainability as ‘narrative fields’ derived from a qualitative multi‐site study and offer a Pragmatist reading of the results. Pragmatism is grounded in an ethic of meliorism, the belief in the possibility of gradually improving the world through human effort and ...

Birth‐Related Experiences and Postpartum Depression: The Protective Role of Self‐Compassion

open access: yesBirth, EarlyView.
Does self‐compassion (SC) moderate the relationship between birth satisfaction, type of birth, and early skin‐to‐skin contact (SSC) in women's PPD symptoms? Methods: 987 women with an infant aged 0–5 months. 62.1% Vaginal delivery. 66.3% SSC contact after delivery.

Effects of forage supplements on milk production and chemical properties, in vivo digestibility, rumen fermentation and N excretion in dairy cows offered red clover silage and corn silage or dry ground corn [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
peer-reviewedThis study concerned the effects of partial substitution of clover silage with high starch forages on milk production and chemical composition, in vivo digestibility, rumen fermentation pattern and nitrogen excretion of dairy cows.

Growth of Streptococcus bovis and a Butyrivibrio in batch and continuous culture and the relationship of molar growth yield to intermicrobial competition : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Microbiology. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
Cell growth yield of Streptococcus bovis and Butyrivibrio were determined in batch cultures where growth was separately limited by glucose, CO2 and trypticase.

Parental Understandings of ‘Stranger Danger’: Balancing Fear of Victimisation by Strangers Against Enabling Autonomy and Independence in Children

open access: yesChildren &Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For decades, children have been taught about ‘stranger danger’. Fear of the stranger has been associated with overly cautious parenting strategies, and the curtailing of freedoms as children transition to adolescents. This article aims to examine the extent to which parents consider this issue of stranger danger in their decisions to grant ...
