Alteration in endospore attachment of H. cajani specific Pasteuria to different age groups of H. cajani J2 exposed to host and non-host root exudates.
(2016-08-28)
Plant root exudates and rhizosphere microbes, including nematodes, are involved in highly specific chemical communication that we know little about. Freshly hatched J2 of the pigeon-pea cyst nematode Heterodera cajani and ...
Use of bioresorbable vascular scaffold : a meta-analysis of patients with coronary artery disease
(2016-08-26)
BACKGROUND: Differences in outcomes between bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) systems and drug-eluting metal stents (DES) have not been fully evaluated. We aimed to compare clinical and angiographic outcomes in randomised ...
Laboratory rearing of mosquitos (Anopheles arabiensis): impact on genetic variability and implications for Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) based mosquito control in northern Sudan
(2016-08-25)
The population genetic makeup of the 13th generation of a laboratory colony of Anopheles arabiensis mosquitos at 11 microsatellite loci was compared to that of the field population from which the colony was founded. Major ...
Customer Attitudes to Water Use and Its Conservation
(2016-08-25)
Aims: Understanding how customers engage with and view their water usage is crucial to the design of more effective water demand management policies and programmes. This paper presents the findings of a small-scale research ...
Health-related Quality of Life after coronary revascularization: : A systematic review with meta-analysis
(2016-08-23)
Objective: To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to summarize evidence and determine the impact of coronary revascularization (CR) on cardiac patients' Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), highlighting factors ...
Evaluation of a novel virtual screening strategy using receptor decoy binding sites
(2016-08-23)
Virtual screening is used in biomedical research to predict the binding affinity of a large set of small organic molecules to protein receptor targets. This report shows the development and evaluation of a novel yet ...
The Effects of Caffeine Supplementation on Physiological Responses to Submaximal Exercise in Endurance-Trained Men.
(2016-08-17)
Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of caffeine on physiological responses to submaximal exercise, with a focus on blood lactate concentration ([BLa]). Methods Using a randomised, single-blind, ...
Ageing and gastrointestinal sensory function: altered colonic mechanosensory and chemosensory function in the aged mouse.
(2016-08-14)
Ageing has a profound effect upon gastrointestinal function through mechanisms that are poorly understood. Here we investigated the effect of age upon gastrointestinal sensory signalling pathways in order to address the ...
Rural Development Programme measures on cultivated land in Europe to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions – regional ‘hotspots’ and priority measures
(2016-08-11)
Agriculture is a significant source of GHG emissions, contributing 10% of total emissions within the EU-28. Emissions from European agriculture have been reduced, albeit at the expense of crop yield and the risk of production ...
