ABSTRACT Tamarins (Saguinus spp., Leontocebus spp.) have been characterized as tolerating or even preferring secondary growth and anthropogenically disturbed areas, and as performing critical seed dispersal in these areas. To test the hypothesis that tamarins prefer secondary growth, we segregated animal presence records by behavior and then used niche

Ultimate low system dark count rate for superconducting nanowire single-photon detector [PDF]
The dark count rate (DCR) is a key parameter of single-photon detectors. By introducing a bulk optical band-pass filter mounted on a fiber-to-fiber optical bench cooled at 3 K and blocking down to 5 micrometer, we suppressed the DCR of a superconducting ...

Inhibitory Effect of Bovine Lactoferrin on Catechol-O-Methyltransferase
Lactoferrin (LF) is a well-known multifunctional protein. In this study, we report the inhibitory potency of bovine LF (bLF) on catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT), which catalyzes methylation of catechol substrates.

Rural Vulnerabilities in Southern Spain: Beyond Material Deprivation
ABSTRACT Research on vulnerability has mainly focused on urban contexts, which has shaped and conditioned the research that has been developed in rural contexts. In this sense, research in rural contexts is not only scarce but also limited in several respects: (1) in the concept of vulnerability (almost exclusively limited to material deprivation and ...

Abstract Introduction Post‐exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for HIV prevention has been inadequately promoted, provided and used. Expanded access and task sharing could increase the HIV prevention impact of PEP, but scientific evidence to inform programmatic and policy decisions has not been synthesized. Methods To inform World Health Organization guidelines,

Morphology of the male reproductive system and spermiogenesis in Hypanthidium foveolatum (Alfken, 1930) (Hymenoptera : Apidae : Megachilinae) [PDF]
The morphological aspects of male reproductive tract, spermiogenesis and spermatozoa are typical for each species and reflect its evolution, establishing a unique source of characters, which has been used to help solve phylogenetic problems.
