Veal production and quality attributes of Holstein bull calves supplemented with dietary active dry yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) during pre-weaning and finishing phases

Sarah J, Davies · Farouk, Semwogerere · Giulia, Esposito · Clothilde, Villot · y 3 más

The study investigated the effects of active dry yeast (ADY) supplementation during pre- and post-weaning on diarrhoea occurrence, animal performance, carcass attributes, and meat quality of Holstein bull calves. At five days old, 39 calves (43.56 ± 3.43 kg at birth) were stratified according to birth weight and blood...

Understanding nanostructure distribution of lignocellulosic wood fiber based biocomposites through scanning X-ray microdiffraction

Yu OGAWA · Erfan OLIAEI · Lengwan LI · Jiliang LIU · y 3 más

Lignocellulosic based biocomposites are important for sustainable development. Our group recently developed a green in-situ polymerization of ɛ-caprolactone in lignocellulosic networks, which exhibit high mechanical performance and increased degradable rate in a controlled manner. However, the multiscale structure in o...

Partitions of mass assignments with spheres and wedges

Lessure, Deron · Soberón, Pablo

In this paper, we generalize classic mass partition results dealing with partitions using spheres, parallel hyperplanes, or axis-parallel wedges to the setting of mass assignments. In a mass assignment problem, we assign mass distributions continuously to all $k$-dimensional subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^d$, and seek to gua...

X-ray Fluorescence Imaging to quantify platinum in rat brain tumors after ultrasound-enhanced chemotherapy

Sébastien RIGOLLET · SARVENAZ KESHMIRI · Jean Francois ADAM · Helene ELLEAUME · y 4 más

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary tumour. Its prognosis is very poor, with survival ranging from 12-15 months. Due to the chemoresistance and highly infiltrative growth of GBM, current treatments can only slow the development of the disease. The main limit to the effectiveness of chemotherapi...

Therapeutic potential of a novel PPARγ agonist in a mouse model of HIV-associated neurocognitive impairment

Celene Titus · Md. Tozammel Hoque · Robert Bonin · Reina Bendayan

HIV-associated neurocognitive impairment (NCI) affects up to 50% of individuals living with HIV, causing cognitive, motor, and behavioral deficits, largely driven by brain inflammation. Activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ), a transcription factor primarily involved in regulating lipid...

Children’s thinking about asymptomatic carriers of disease

Jasmine M. DeJesus · Shruthi Venkatesh · Cherish R. Elmore-Li · Shaylene E. Nancekivell

Prior research has examined children's understanding of disease transmission between people who demonstrate illness symptoms or are labeled as sick (Blacker & LoBue, 2016; DeJesus et al., 2021). The present studies examine North American children's thinking about illness carriers with varying symptoms in terms of the l...

Cryo-electron microscopy EPN/Grenoble BAG

Hok Sau KWONG · Benoit ARRAGAIN · Guy SCHOEHN

At the EPN campus level structural biology work is carried out in all the 4 institutes (IBS, ESRF, ILL and EMBL). Today all structural biology groups are turning to cryo-EM. The EM demand is therefore extremely high and present in the 4 Institutes. However there are also some other Research Institutes in Grenoble and w...

HF-MMLLE using natural deep eutectic solvents for determination of potential lung cancer biomarkers in urine

Amanda Vitória Santos · Camila Will · Francielle Crocetta Turazzi · Lucas Morés · y 1 más

This work expands the use of a natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) as an alternative extractor solvent for organic solvents. Hollow fiber-microporous membrane liquid-liquid extraction (HF-MMLLE) coupled to the 96-well plate system was employed for the determination of hexanal and heptanal in urine samples. The NADES...

Evaluation of novel neuroprotective strategies in the treatment of retinal ganglion cell degeneration by multiscale 3D neuroimaging

Giuseppe BATTAGLIA · Hector DEJEA I VELARDO · Alberto BRAVIN · SIMONE CAPUTO · y 2 más

The project aims at studying the potential therapeutic effects of Idebenone and the mGlu1 receptor antagonist JNJ16259685 in an experimental model of glaucoma by using a high-sensitivity microscopic approach based on X-ray phase-contrast micro-CT (X-PCI-CT) for multiscale, post-mortem 3D virtual-histology. Neuroprotect...
