First Case of Respiratory Infection in Rabbits Caused by <i>Alcaligenes faecalis</i> in Romania by Vlad Iorgoni, Ionica Iancu, Ionela Popa, Alexandru Gligor, Gabriel Orghici, Bogdan Sicoe, Corina Badea, Cristian Dreghiciu, Călin Pop, Timea Bochiș, Janos Degi, Luminita Costinar, Corina Pascu, Viorel Herman

“…<i>Alcaligenes faecalis</i> is a Gram-negative, obligate aerobic bacillus commonly found in environmental settings, particularly in soil and water, as well as within the intestinal microbiota of humans and various animal species. This bacterium has the potential to act as an opportunistic pathogen, capable of causing severe infections in both humans and animals, which can sometimes result in fatal outcomes. …”

Information and knowledge: an evolutionary framework for information science by Marcia J. Bates

“…The approach is rooted in an evolutionary framework; that is, modes of information perception, processing, transmission, and storage are seen to have developed as a part of the general evolution of members of the animal kingdom. Brains are expensive for animals to support; consequently, efficient storage, including, particularly, storage at emergent levels-for example, storing the concept of chair, rather than specific memories of all chairs ever seen, is powerful and effective for animals. …”

Mimosapudica L. aqueous extract protects mice against pilocarpine–picrotoxin kindling-induced temporal lobe epilepsy, oxidative stress, and alteration in GABAergic/cholinergic path... by Hart Mann Alain Youbi Mambou, Simon Pale, Orelien Sylvain Mtopi Bopda, Vanessa Tita Jugha, Nji Seraphin Ombel Musa, Tambong Ako Ojongnkpot, Bertrand Yuwong Wanyu, Raymond Bess Bila, Rashed N. Herqash, Abdelaaty A. Shahat, Germain Sotoing Taiwe

“…This study sought to investigate the effects of the aqueous extract of Mimosa pudica leaves and stems against pilocarpine–picrotoxin kindling-induced temporal lobe epilepsy in mice and its implication on oxidative/nitrosative stress, GABAergic/cholinergic signalling, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression. The animals were treated for seven consecutive days as follows: one normal group and one negative control group that received orally distilled water; four test groups that received orally four doses of Mimosa pudica (20, 40, 80, and 160 mg/kg), respectively; and one positive control group that received 300 mg/kg sodium valproate intraperitoneally. …”

Numerical Solutions of Nonlinear Fractional Partial Differential Equations Arising in Spatial Diffusion of Biological Populations by Jagdev Singh, Devendra Kumar, Adem Kılıçman

“…The main aim of this work is to present a user friendly numerical algorithm based on homotopy perturbation Sumudu transform method for nonlinear fractional partial differential arising in spatial diffusion of biological populations in animals. The movements are made generally either by mature animals driven out by invaders or by young animals just reaching maturity moving out of their parental territory to establish breeding territory of their own. …”
