First report of adult Amblyomma longirostre (Acari: Ixodidae) in Oklahoma
(Systematic and Applied Acarology Society, 2015-07-31)
Feeding soy protein isolate and oils rich in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids affected mineral balance, but not bone in a rat model of autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease
(BioMed Central, 2015-02-10)
Background: Polycystic kidney disease (PKD), a genetic disorder characterized by multiple cysts and renal failure at an early age. In children, kidney disease is often accompanied by disordered mineral metabolism, failure ...
Patterns and determinants of halophilic Archaea (class Halobacteria) diversity in Tunisian endorheic salt lakes and sebkhet systems
(American Society for Microbiology, 2015-07)
We examined the diversity and community structure of members of the halophilic Archaea (class Halobacteria) in samples from central and southern Tunisian endorheic salt lakes and sebkhet (also known as sebkha) systems using ...
Life cycle assessment of biochar versus metal catalysts used in syngas cleaning
(MDPI, 2015-01-15)
Biomass gasification has the potential to produce renewable fuels, chemicals and power at large utility scale facilities. In these plants catalysts would likely be used to reform and clean the generated biomass syngas. ...
Geometry of planar surfaces and exceptional fillings

Photocatalytic C-F alkylation; Facile access to multifluorinated arenes
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015-09-29)
C–F functionalizations that provide C–C bonds are challenging synthetic transformations, due in part to the large C–F bond strength, short bond length, nonpolarizable nature, the production of fluoride, and the regioselectivity-in ...
Metabolic theory explains latitudinal variation in common carp populations and predicts responses to climate change
(Ecological Society of America, 2015-04-14)
Climate change is expected to alter temperature regimes experienced by fishes, which may also alter life history traits. However, predicting population-level responses to climate change has been difficult. Metabolic theory ...
Mycobacteria, metals, and the macrophage
(Wiley, 2015-03)
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a facultative intracellular pathogen that thrives inside host macrophages. A key trait of M. tuberculosis is to exploit and manipulate metal cation trafficking inside infected macrophages to ...
Comparison of Bayesian models to estimate direct genomic values in multi-breed commercial beef cattle
(BioMed Central, 2015-04-01)
Background: While several studies have examined the accuracy of direct genomic breeding values (DGV) within and across purebred cattle populations, the accuracy of DGV in crossbred or multi-breed cattle populations has ...
