Vitamin A deficiency and vitamin A supplementation affect innate and T cell immune responses to rotavirus A infection in a conventional sow model

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
Rotavirus A (RVA) causes ~200,000 diarrheal deaths annually in children <5yrs, mostly in low- and middle-income countries. Risk factors include nutritional status, social factors, breastfeeding status, and immunodeficiency. We evaluated the effects of

Thermal Equilibrium with the Wiener Potential: Testing the Replica Variational Approximation

, 1995
We consider the statistical mechanics of a classical particle in a one-dimensional box subjected to a random potential which constitutes a Wiener process on the coordinate axis.

The Matrix Product Approach to Quantum Spin Ladders [PDF]

, 1998
We present a manifestly rotational invariant formulation of the matrix product method valid for spin chains and ladders. We apply it to 2 legged spin ladders with spins 1/2, 1 and 3/2 and different magnetic structures labelled by the exchange coupling ...

Paleopathology of a putative colossosaurian caudal vertebra (Neosauropoda: Titanosauria) from the Presidente Prudente Formation, Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies investigating paleopathologies in sauropods remain scarce despite their relative abundance in the fossil record. In this study we report new occurrence of paleopathological features, corresponding to a neoplasm found in a middle caudal vertebra (MCT.R.2120) of an advanced titanosaur from the Presidente Prudente Formation (Bauru Basin ...

The Effect of Lactic Acid in Association With Steam in Reducing Microorganisms in Soft Wheat

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Within the food industry, steam is an effective method of microbial reduction for a variety of products. Previous studies have shown that tempering soft wheat with organic acids, as well as steam application, can potentially reduce wheat's microbial load with minor changes in the functional properties of the flour ...

Molecular epidemiology of Avian Rotaviruses Group A and D shed by different bird species in Nigeria

Virology Journal, 2017
Background Avian rotaviruses (RVs) cause gastrointestinal diseases of birds worldwide. However, prevalence, diversity, epidemiology and phylogeny of RVs remain largely under-investigated in Africa.

Comprehensive Characterization of Spelt Wheat and Common Wheat Protein and Viscosity Traits Under Different Field Management Systems

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There is an increasing interest in healthier, nutrient‐rich foods so alternative grains produced in smaller quantities—including spelt wheat (Triticum spelta L.)—have once again become the focus of consumers. At the same time, the scientific proof of these claims is incomplete.

RVA’s Role in Education, Working Life and Society [PDF]

, 2015
This chapter examines the variations in the purposes of RVA across and within countries. While countries tend to concentrate on one or the other purposes depending upon the contexts and circumstances, country practice actually show the need to link the different contexts, keeping in mind the entire range of social, economic, cultural and personal ...

Colloidal interactions in an alternate make cheese : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Food Technology at Massey University, (Manawatū), New Zealand [PDF]

, 2017
The role of emulsion structure and interactions on the material and technical functionality of an alternate make cheese (AMC) was investigated. Lab scale cheese samples (25 g comprising 23 wt.% fat and 20 wt.%) were prepared by recombining model ...
