Geomagnetic Energy Approach to Space Debris Deorbiting in a Low Earth Orbit by Guanhua Feng, Wenhao Li, Heng Zhang

“…The method can be applied to the regions of the LEO below 1000 km with different altitudes/inclinations and eccentricities, and with existent magnetorquer technology, only several days of preparation is required for about 104 m·kg mechanism-scale-debris-mass deorbiting, which can be used for deorbiting missions in debris-intensive areas (altitude≤1000 km); without consideration of external effects on the geomagnetic field distribution, it has the same deorbiting capability with that of the LEO below 1000 km when the altitude is over 1000 km. …”

Homeostatic antiviral protection of the neonatal gut epithelium by interferon lambda by Bryan Ramirez Reyes, Shelby Madden, Kimberly A. Meyer, Brenden Bartsch, Austin P. Wright, David A. Constant, Timothy J. Nice

“…Here, we find that neonatal IECs express antiviral genes at homeostasis that depend on interferon lambda (IFN-λ) and are required for early control of mouse rotavirus (mRV) infection. Neonatal homeostatic IFN-λ responses are independent of microbiota and pervasively distributed among IECs, distinguishing them from the homeostatic responses of adult mice. …”

Proposal of a generic model to predict the time to reject low acid fruit pulps contaminated by Byssochlamys fulva by Paulo Ricardo Santos da Silva, Michele Bertoni Mann, Isabel Cristina Tessaro, Ligia Damasceno Ferreira Marczak

“…The growth behavior of this microorganism in modified potato-dextrose culture medium was studied as a function of temperature (20, 28, 36oC), pH (4, 5, 6) and sugar content (0, 5, 10, 15% m/v). A mathematical model was constructed to quantify the effect of these factors on the growth kinetics of this fungus and on the time to spoil the product, using linear model and Gibson-type model. …”
