Effects of macrolide antibiotics on blood inflammatory mediators and organ damage markers in lipopolysaccharide-induced pulmonary damage rats by Ayşe Er, Enver Yazar

“…Six rats were used for a 0th sampling point for all groups. 192 rats were divided into four equal groups as lipopolysaccharide (Escherichia coli 0111:B4, 0.5 mg/200 &#956;l, intratracheal), lipopolysaccharide + tylosin (10 mg/kg, subcutaneously), lipopolysaccharide + tilmicosin (20 mg/ kg, subcutaneously) and lipopolysaccharide + tulathromycin (2.5 mg/kg, subcutaneously). After the treatments, blood samples were collected by cardiac puncture under anesthesia at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 12 and 24 hours. …”

Limitations to Dynamical Error Suppression and Gate-Error Virtualization from Temporally Correlated Nonclassical Noise by Michiel Burgelman, Nattaphong Wonglakhon, Diego N. Bernal-García, Gerardo A. Paz-Silva, Lorenza Viola

“…We explicitly relate these features to the evolution of the bath statistics during the computation, which has not been fully accounted for in existing treatments. We find that only if decoupling can keep the qubit highly pure over a time scale larger than the correlation time of the noise, the bath approximately converges to its original statistics and a stable-in-time control performance is recovered. …”
