Evaluation of a non‐radioactive rapid test for determination of serum progesterone in South American camelids

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Determination of the serum progesterone (P4) concentration is of high importance in reproductive medicine and may be applied for diagnosing pregnancy in South American camelids. P4 measurements in alpacas and llamas are usually performed using immunoassays, which are time consuming and require appropriate expertise of laboratory ...

Auxin response and PIN‐mediated transport in chlorophyte algae

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Like multicellular plants, green algae respond to auxin and move it across their cells. However, their PIN‐like proteins do not act like plant auxin exporters, suggesting that basic auxin transport evolved early and specialized directional transport appeared later in plant evolution.

Simplified calculations of tritium production in a lithium-lead blanket for a fusion reactor'

, 1990
The tritium production rate in a DEMO fusion-reactor blanket with Li17Pb83 liquid breeder has been calculated. Tritium production in a blanket is the result of many material and geometric characteristics of the machine; some of these have been optimized,

A novel approach to the study of magnetohydrodynamic effect on tritium transport in WCLL breeding blanket of DEMO [PDF]

, 2021
The Water-Cooled Lithium Lead (WCLL) breeding blanket is one of the European blanket designs proposed for DEMO reactor. Tritium can permeate into the different structural materials, arising potential issues concerning the fuel self-sufficiency and can be

Transfer of paracetamol across the placenta and fetal blood–brain barriers and its safety for use in pregnancy

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Paracetamol (acetaminophen) is commonly taken during pregnancy for pain and fever. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of paracetamol's effects during pregnancy, several elements need to be examined including the transfer of paracetamol across the placenta and into the developing brain, the short‐ and long‐term effects of ...

Lactate Metabolism: Separating Correlation From Causation

BioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 9, September 2026.
Elevated lactate is often interpreted as the cause of pathology, when it more commonly reflects underlying metabolic state. This review separates correlation from causation and highlights how advances in technology have transformed our understanding of lactate biology. ABSTRACT Lactate is among the most frequently measured metabolites in physiology and
