Low seroprevalence of antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in blood donors in central Namibia
(Informa UK Limited, 2014)
Although emphasis has been placed on research relating to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), tuberculosis and malaria, several researchers in Africa are focusing on other threats to human health, such as neglected tropical ...
Serodetection of Ehrlichia canis amongst dogs in central Namibia
(AOSIS, 2015-06-01)
Ehrlichia canis is a major pathogen in dogs throughout Africa, yet it has not been reported in Namibia. The aim of this study was to determine the seroprevalence of canine ehrlichiosis in central Namibia using the ImmunoComb ...
Limits on anomalous trilinear gauge boson couplings from WW, WZ and Wgamma production in pp[over ¯] collisions at √s=1.96 TeV
(2012-10-26)
We present searches for the anomalous γWW and ZWW trilinear gauge boson couplings from WW and WZ production using lepton plus dijet final states and a combination with results from Wγ, WW, and WZ production with leptonic ...
Spatial heterogeneity increases diversity and stability in grassland bird communities
(Ecological Society of America, 2015)
Grasslands are inherently dynamic in space and time, evolving with frequent disturbance from fire and herbivores. As a consequence of human actions, many remaining grasslands have become homogenous, which has led to reduced ...
New design of a lentiviral shRNA vector with inducible co-expression of ARGONAUTE 2 for enhancing gene silencing efficiency
(BioMed Central, 2015-12-08)
Background: RNA interference (RNAi) is a robust tool for inhibiting specific gene expression, but it is limited by the uncertain efficiency of siRNA or shRNA constructs. It has been shown that the overexpression of ARGONAUTE ...
Libraries, long lives, and...Louis L'Amour? Oklahoma 100 year life oral history project
(Oklahoma State University, 2015-06)
Controlling metamaterial resonances via dielectric and aspect ratio effects
(AIP Publishing, 2010-11-09)
We study ways to enhance the sensitivity and dynamic tuning range of the fundamental inductor-capacitor (LC) resonance in split ring resonators (SRRs) by controlling the aspect ratio of the SRRs and their substrate thickness. ...
Using a historic drought and high-heat event to validate thermal exposure predictions for ground-dwelling birds
(Wiley Open Access, 2017-07-08)
Deviations from typical environmental conditions can provide insight into how organisms may respond to future weather extremes predicted by climate modeling. During an episodic and multimonth heat wave event (i.e., ambient ...
LacSubPred: Predicting subtypes of Laccases, an important lignin metabolism-related enzyme class, using in silico approaches
(BioMed Central, 2014-10-21)
Background: Laccases (E.C. 1.10.3.2) are multi-copper oxidases that have gained importance in many industries such as biofuels, pulp production, textile dye bleaching, bioremediation, and food production. Their usefulness ...
