Leveraging Change: Perceived Relevance and Organisational Support for Agents of Change for Sustainable Land Management in Agriculture in Aotearoa New Zealand

Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 1, March 2026.
This study examines the role of agents of change (AoCs) in promoting environmentally sustainable land management in Aotearoa New Zealand's (AoNZ's) agricultural system. Survey responses from 196 individuals across five organisational types highlighted significant sustainability challenges in nine agricultural sectors.

Pharmacokinetics and Safety of a Single Subcutaneous or Intramuscular Dose of Ketamine in Healthy Horses

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 141-149, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Pharmacokinetics (PK) of intramuscular (IM) and subcutaneous (SC) ketamine in horses has not been described. This study aimed to evaluate the PK and safety of ketamine and its metabolites after a single SC or IM administration. In Phase 1, two horses received 0.5 or 1 mg/kg of ketamine via SC and IM routes.

Protection Strategies for Dynamic VNF Placement and Service Chaining

2021 International Conference on Computer Communications and Networks (ICCCN), 2021
Network Function Virtualization (NFV) provides a major shift in the provisioning of telecommunication services by decoupling network functions from dedicated hardware devices. Such decoupling enables operational expenditure (OpEx) and capital expenditure (CapEx) reduction and allows to increase service agility.

Enterobacter Species: Opportunistic Human and Plant Pathogens With Plant‐Beneficial Traits

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
The pathogen profile on Enterobacter species synthesises current knowledge on host range, disease symptoms, plant‐beneficial traits and compares genomic features within the genus. ABSTRACT Enterobacter species occur across diverse habitats and are best known for causing opportunistic and nosocomial infections in humans.
