Temperature, Disinfectant Concentration and Bacterial Innate Properties Influence the Disinfection of Bacterial Pathogens Relevant to Catfish Aquaculture

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture systems suffer a wide range of losses, mostly due to bacterial disease outbreaks, and the use of disinfectants is a routine practice for controlling the spread of pathogenic organisms globally. Including Aeromonas hydrophila, Streptococcus agalactiae and Edwardsiella tarda, implicated for natural disease outbreaks and economic ...

ABA‐Feed Infant Feeding Training for Peer Supporters and Coordinators: Development and Mixed‐Methods Evaluation

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The assets‐based feeding help before and after birth (ABA‐feed) intervention aims to improve breastfeeding rates by offering proactive peer support to first‐time mothers, regardless of feeding intention. Based on behaviour change theory and an assets‐based approach, the intervention involved training existing peer supporters to become infant ...

Experiences of the ABA‐Feed Infant Feeding Intervention: A Qualitative Study With Women, Peer Supporters and Coordinators

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT UK breastfeeding rates are low, with health inequalities in initiation and continuation. Breastfeeding peer support interventions are recommended in UK and global policy. The Assets‐based feeding help Before and After birth (ABA‐feed) trial tested the effectiveness of proactive, woman‐centred support for infant feeding delivered by trained ...

Drivers of planted seedling survival and growth in a Mediterranean‐climate woodland restoration experiment

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The restoration of degraded ecosystems is an important means of promoting and conserving biodiversity. However, restoration projects on average fail to reach target biodiversity levels within the time frames they are studied. Competition from non‐native groundlayer grasses and forbs, potential facilitative effects of plant–plant ...

Business Participation in Regulation: A Multifocal Perspective on Management Studies

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper conceptualizes how regulation is viewed in management studies in the context of business participation in regulation and explores its implications. We theorize six lenses through which management studies understand regulation: as competitive advantages, boundaries, forums, principles, systems, and cognitive frames.
