Optimized algorithm for speed-of-sound-based infant sulfur hexafluoride multiple-breath washout measurements. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION Major methodological issues with the existing algorithm (WBreath) used for the analysis of speed-of-sound-based infant sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) multiple-breath washout (MBW) measurements lead to implausible results and complicate the ...

Beef Steers and Enteric Methane: Reducing Emissions by Managing Forage Diet Fiber Content
Understanding the methane (CH4) emissions that are produced by enteric fermentation is one of the main problems to be solved for livestock, due to their GHG effects. These emissions are affected by the quantity and quality of their diets, thus, it is key
