Background: Bast fibres from the phloem tissues of flax are scientifically interesting and economically useful due in part to a dynamic system of secondary cell wall deposition. To better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the process of cell wall development in flax, we extracted...

Blasting is widely used in mining operations as the primary comminution process to reduce the in-situ rock into fragmented material suitable for the subsequent transport and processing. The energy used is released from an explosive by detonation and transferred to the rock mass via a shock front...

Analytical considerations and biology of milk conjugated linoleic acid synthesis in the bovine
DownloadSpring 2010
Biosynthesis of milk conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a component of milk fat with demonstrated health benefits, requires a dietary source of PUFA. Even with PUFA supplementation, milk CLA is highly variable. Therefore, this study was aimed at identifying factors responsible for the variations in...

The ban of sub-therapeutic antibiotic use in the European Union countries and elsewhere, and recent moves toward removal or reduced use of these compounds in other countries has put pressure on the poultry industry to look for viable alternatives. Available data suggest that specific egg yolk...

Dyeing cotton with fiber reactive dyes provides textiles with outstanding colorfastness properties at the expense of environmental concerns from unfixed dye and high salt content in dye house effluent. One approach to this problem is to incorporate cationic dye sites into the cotton fiber to...

Children's Expression of Emotional and Cognitive Mental States in their Story Generation from Pictures
Download2014-05-05
Ortlieb, Andrea, Babar, Aseea, Baird, Shelby, Lang, Bretton
Background: The term mental state can be used to describe a person’s emotional or cognitive condition (i.e. feelings, thoughts, or perceptions). Narratives provide an important context for the use of mental state words, since stories in Western culture frequently describe characters’ thoughts...

Cytokine profiles in pregnant gilts experimentally infected with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus and relationships with viral load and fetal outcome
Download2014
Plastow, G., Souza, C. J. H., Lunney, J. K., Ashley, C., Ladinig, A., Harding, J. C. S.
In spite of extensive research, immunologic control mechanisms against Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome virus (PRRSv) remain poorly understood. Cytokine responses have been exhaustively studied in nursery pigs and show contradictory results. Since no detailed reports on cytokine...

Broiler breeders are feed restricted to control growth and increase the production of settable eggs. However, the consecutive need for the deposition and mobilization of nutrients, due the feeding and fasting cycles those birds are submitted to, is not a efficient process. Additionally, the less...

Endogenous melanocortin antagonist in fish: Structure, brain mapping and regulation by fasting of the goldfish agouti-related protein gene
Download2003
Cerdá-Reverter, J.M., Peter, R.E.
Agouti-related protein (AGRP) is a naturally occurring antagonist of melanocortin. In mammals, central AGRP expression is restricted to the arcuate nucleus in which it plays a key role in the control of energy balance by antagonizing melanocortin effects at melanocortin 4 receptors. In goldfish,...

Relay network designs have been widely studied in recent years. It is known that cooperative relay network can achieve cooperative diversity with the help of relays and improve the data rate and/or the reliability of the network. On the other hand, green communication design has also attracted...
