Comparative plasma disposition, bioavailability and efficacy of ivermectin following oral and pour-on administrations in horses
(2010)Pour-on formulations of endectocides decrease the risk of injury for both user and animal, and are particularly convenient for animal owners who can apply the product. This study was designed to investigate the plasma ... -
Comparative plasma dispositions of ivermectin and doramectin following subcutaneous and oral administration in dogs
(2006)This study evaluates the comparative plasma dispositions of ivermectin (IVM) and doramectin (DRM) following oral and subcutaneous administration (200 μg/kg) over a 40-day period in dogs. Twenty bitches were allocated by ... -
A comparative research on Communities of Practice, University Knowledge Exchange and Business Model Changes between the United Kingdom and Vietnamese Agri-tech Startups
(2022-04-25)The paper explores the expectation that agri-tech startups in the United Kingdom and Vietnam gain benefits of Communities of Practice (CoP), and how CoP help those businesses to tackle the challenges of business model ... -
Comparative study between the use of double J ureteric stents vs bander ureteric stents during robotic assisted radical cystectomy with intra corporeal ileal conduit urinary diversion
(2024-01-10)Robotic-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) is fast becoming the standard of care with comparable oncological outcomes to open surgery for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Ileal conduit is by far the most popular ... -
Comparative study of adaptive techniques for denoising CN Tower lightning current derivative signals
(2010)The lightning current derivative data recorded at the CN Tower during the past 18 years contain different kinds of noise and needs to be denoised for accurately determining the lightning current waveform parameters. It is ... -
Comparative study of back-stepping controller and super twisting sliding mode controller for indirect power control of wind generator
(2019-12-01)This paper presents the application nonlinear control to regulate the rotor currents and control the active and reactive powers generated by the Doubly Fed Induction Generator used in the Wind Energy Conversion System ... -
A comparative study of blood endotoxin detection in haemodialysis patients
(2016-07-30)BACKGROUND: Endotoxemia is commonly reported in patients receiving haemodialysis and implicated in the pathogenesis of systemic inflammation. The Limulus Amoebocyte Lysate (LAL) assay is the most commonly used blood endotoxin ... -
A Comparative Study of Conviviality and Family Mealtime Experiences in Spain and the UK
(2019-10-23)This study explores experiences of conviviality and family mealtimes in 10 Spanish families and 10 families in the UK. Although there has been sociological interest in the concepts of commensality (the act of eating together) ... -
A Comparative Study of Hidden Markov Model and Support Vector Machine in Anomaly Intrusion Detection
(2013-12)This paper aims to analyse the performance of Hidden Markov Model (HMM) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) for anomaly intrusion detection. These techniques discriminate between normal and abnormal behaviour of network ... -
Comparative Study of the Antimicrobial Effects of Tungsten Nanoparticles and Tungsten Nanocomposite Fibres on Hospital Acquired Bacterial and Viral Pathogens
(2020-06)A significant proportion of patients acquire hospital associated infections as a result of care within the NHS each year. Numerous antimicrobial strategies, such as antibiotics and surface modifications to medical facilities ... -
Comparative study of the magnetic behaviour of Carbon-based materials
(2019-09-12)The discovery of anomalous magnetic and transport properties in Highly-Oriented Pyrolytic Graphite (HOPG) showed that significant research work is still needed to fully understand the basic properties of carbon materials. ... -
A Comparative Study of the Mass Distribution of Extreme-Ultraviolet selected White Dwarfs
(1999)We present new determinations of e ective temperature, surface gravity, and masses for a sample of 46 hot DA white dwarfs selected from the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUV E) and ROSAT Wide Field Camera bright source ... -
A comparative study of three neural networks that use soft competition
(University of Hertfordshire, 1994)This report provides a comparative study of three proposed self-organising neural network models that use forms of soft competition. The use of soft competition helps the neural networks to avoid poor local minima and so ... -
Comparative Study on Chemical Kinetics Mechanisms for Methane-Based Fuel Mixtures under Engine-Relevant Conditions
(2021-05-14)The use of natural gas in pure or in a blended form with hydrogen and syngas in spark ignition (SI) engines has received much attention in recent years. They have higher diffusion coefficient and laminar flame speed, a ... -
Comparative Study on High Strain Rate Fracture Modelling Using the Application of Explosively Driven Cylinder Rings
(2021-07-29)The effect of different constitutive modelling choices is crucial under a high strain rate as encountered in ballistic applications. Natural fragmentation of explosively driven cylinder rings is chosen as a simplified ... -
