The Comprehensive Study of Electrical Faults in PV Arrays by M. Sabbaghpur Arani, M. A. Hejazi

“…Due to the current-limiting nature and nonlinear output characteristics of PV arrays, faults in PV arrays may not be detected. In this paper, all possible faults that happen in the PV system have been classified and six common faults (shading condition, open-circuit fault, degradation fault, line-to-line fault, bypass diode fault, and bridging fault) have been implemented in 7.5 KW PV farm. …”

Bacterial Diversity Associated with Terrestrial and Aquatic Snails by Konstantinos Apostolou, Canella Radea, Alexandra Meziti, Konstantinos Ar. Kormas

“…Snails are evolutionary old animals, with complex ecophysiological roles, living in rich microbial habitats such as soil and sediments or water. In order to create a stepping stone for future snail microbiome studies, in this literature review, we combined all the available knowledge to date, as documented in scientific papers, on any microbes associated with healthy and diseased terrestrial and aquatic snail species from natural and farmed populations. …”

Radiofrequency Ablation for Treatment of Symptomatic Uterine Fibroids by Siân Jones, Peter O'Donovan, David Toub

“…What has emerged from two decades of peer-reviewed research is the concept that hyperthermic fibroid ablation, regardless of the thermal energy source, can create large areas of necrosis within fibroids resulting in reductions in fibroid volume, associated symptoms and the need for reintervention. …”

Synthesis and Antileishmanial Activity of Lipophilic Aromatic Aminoalcohols by Roberta Novaes Reis Corrales, Liliane Sena Pinheiro, Elaine Soares Coimbra, Adilson David Da Silva, Mireille Le Hyaric

“…In this work, we report on the preparation and evaluation of the in vitro antileishmanial activity of a series of lipophilic aromatic aminoalcohols. All compounds were assessed for their in vitro activity against promastigotes of three Leishmania species The most lipophilic aminoalcohols bearing an aliphatic moiety with eight to 12 carbon atoms displayed a good activity against L. amazonensis and L. major, and two of them also showed antiproliferative activity against L. chagasi. …”
