Global Stability of a Host-Vector Model for Pine Wilt Disease with Nonlinear Incidence Rate by Kwang Sung Lee, Abid Ali Lashari

“…Using a Lyapunov function and a LaSalle's invariant set theorem, we proved the global asymptotical stability of the disease-free equilibrium. We find that if R0≤1, the disease free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable, and the disease will be eliminated. …”

Chemical Heterogeneity of Metal Oxide Surfaces as Studied by Inverse Gas Chromatography at Finite Concentrations by V.I. Bogillo, V.P. Shkilev, A. Voelkel

“…A method for the calculation of the heterogeneous solid surface distribution function on the adsorption (free adsorption) energy as the sum of two uniform functions and on parameters describing the donor–acceptor and dispersive properties of the adsorption sites direct from chromatographic peaks as measured by inverse gas chromatography of ‘test ’ adsorbates at finite concentrations has been proposed. …”

Studies on the Interleukin-10 Gene in Animal Models of Colitis by Hugh J Freeman

“…Interestingly, in IL-10 gene-deficient mice raised in germ-free conditions, the intestinal inflammatory changes normally observed in conventional nongerm-free conditions are not detected, suggesting a role for luminal bacteria in the pathogenesis of the inflammatory process.…”
