Impact of inter- and intra-specific competition among larvae on larval, adult, and life-table traits of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus females
(Wiley, 2015-12-08)
1. Few studies have taken a comprehensive approach of measuring the impact of inter- and intra-specific larval competition on adult mosquito traits. In this study, the impact of competition among Aedes aegypti (L.) and A. ...
Is machine language translation a viable tool for health communication?
(Routledge, 2019-06-30)
Chapters in this book aim to fill in a persistent knowledge gap in current multicultural health research, that is, culturally effective and user-oriented healthcare translation.
Ready OER not, here we come? Intentionally planning for Open, sustainable, and learning-analytics-ready resources
(American Library Association, 2019-03-12)
So you've decided you want to create open educational resources (OER) to provide free and reduced cost materials to your students and faculty alike. Great! Are you sure it's truly open? Can you collect any meaningful data ...
Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of the catalytic domain of a hyperthermostable endo-1,4-B-D-mannanase from Thermotoga petrophila RKU-1
(International Union of Crystallography, 2010)
Endo-1,4-[beta]-D-mannanases play key roles in seed germination and fruit ripening and have recently received much attention owing to their potential applications in the food, detergent and kraft pulp industries. In order ...
Influence of aspect ratio and wettability on residual oil saturations after waterflooding and immiscible gas flooding: A microfluidics based study
(Society of Core Analysts, 2018-08-27)
A series of microfluidic experiments have been carried out to understand the influence of aspect ratio (AR) and wettability on residual oil saturations (Sor) in water and immiscible gas flooding. Linear and uniform pore ...
