Enhanced antiviral immunity and dampened inflammation in llama lymph nodes upon MERS-CoV sensing: bridging innate and adaptive cellular immune responses in camelid reservoirs
(Frontiers Media, 2023-06-14)
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) infection can cause fatal pulmonary inflammatory disease in humans. Contrarily, camelids and bats are the main reservoir hosts, tolerant for ...
Nitzschia captiva sp. nov. (Bacillariophyta), the essential prey diatom of the kleptoplastic dinoflagellate Durinskia capensis, compared with N. agnita, N. kuetzingioides and other species
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2023-03-13)
Durinskia capensis is a kleptoplastic dinoflagellate species from high intertidal marine rock pools, which can use a variety of diatoms for photosynthesis. However, very few of the diatoms permit ...
Earwig Releases Provide Accumulative Biological Control of the Woolly Apple Aphid over the Years
(MDPI, 2023-11-18)
Nature-based solutions, such as biological control, can strongly contribute to reducing the
use of plant protection products. In our study, we assessed the effect of augmentative releases of
the ...
Extended Viral Shedding of MERS-CoV Clade B Virus in Llamas Compared with African Clade C Strain
(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2023-02-07)
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) clade B viruses are found in camelids and humans in the Middle East, but clade C viruses are not. We provide experimental evidence for extended ...
Development and Evaluation of an AxiomTM 60K SNP Array for Almond (Prunus dulcis)
(MDPI, 2023-01-05)
A high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array is essential to enable faster progress in plant breeding for new cultivar development. In this regard, we have developed an Axiom 60K almond SNP ...
Modeling of radio frequency heating of packed fluid foods moving on a conveyor belt: A case study for tomato puree
(Elsevier, 2023-05-20)
Computer simulation models were used to study radiofrequency heating of liquid foods moving on a conveyor belt between staggered-through field electrodes of non-uniform electric field distribution. ...
Dietary Debaryomyces hansenii promotes skin and skin mucus defensive capacities in a marine fish model
(Frontiers Media, 2023-08-30)
The present study explores the effects of two supplementation levels of Debaryomyces hansenii (1.1% and 2.2%) as a probiotic in a reference low fish meal-based diet on the skin mucosal tissue in Sparus ...
Modulation of gut microbiota and intestinal immune response in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) by dietary bile salt supplementation
(Frontiers, 2023-04-24)
Given their role in lipid digestion, feed supplementation with bile salts could be an economic and sustainable solution to alterations in adiposity and intestinal inflammation generated by some strategies ...
Innovations in spray drying technology for liquid food processing: Design, mechanisms, and potential for application
(Elsevier, 2023-12-20)
Spray drying is a well-established approach to converting liquid food into powder. This review discusses four types of spray drying techniques currently being used for that purpose, namely: pulse ...
Porcine Forebrain Vacuolization Associated with Wasting in Pigs: A Novel Pathological Outcome Associated with Vitamin–Mineral Deficiency?
(MDPI, 2023-07-10)
The term wasting refers to a clinical sign used to describe a physical condition characterized
by growth retardation, usually of multifactorial origin. The objective of the present study was to
describe ...
