Identification of key gut microbiota and microbial QTL in contributing to the significant differences in body weight between two Chinese local chicken breeds. [PDF]
Abstract Previous studies have identified genetic loci that are associated with both feed conversion efficiency and gut microbiota in chickens, suggesting that interactions between the host genome and gut microbiota may influence chicken growth. However, the number of microbial QTL and gut microbiota associated with chicken body weight remains largely ...

Crack-Resistance Behavior of an Encapsulated, Healing Agent Embedded Buffer Layer on Self-Healing Thermal Barrier Coatings [PDF]
In this work, a novel thermal barrier coating (TBC) system is proposed that embeds silicon particles in coating as a crack-healing agent. The healing agent is encapsulated to avoid unintended reactions and premature oxidation.

Is There Any Point in a Corticosteroid Treatment of Intermittent Asthma?
International guidelines advocate the early introduction of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) in all types of persistent asthma. Our study was undertaken to assess the effects of ICS on bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) as a hallmark of inflammation, and ...
