Citrus Flavonoid Effects on Obesity by Yu Wang, Laura E. Reuss

“… The increased prevalence of obesity in recent decades has sparked tremendous concern worldwide. Obesity, a chronic disease that increases the risk for a myriad of diseases including diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, as well as certain types of cancers, results from a persistent excess of energy intake versus energy expenditure and is characterized by an increase in both adipose cell size and number. …”

Reduction of chickens use to perform in vitro pre-screening of novel anticoccidials by miniaturisation and increased throughput of the current Eimeria tenella compound-screening mo... by Virginia Marugan-Hernandez, Javier Regidor-Cerrillo, Luis Ortega-Mora, Sara Arias-Maroto, Kelsilandia Aguiar-Martins

“…In this study, we describe how further optimisation of this in vitro model by miniaturisation can have an additional impact in reduction of the number of chickens used for the generation of parasite stocks for provision of the in vitro model. We have estimated that the use of one chicken could support the evaluation of 10 compounds with a 96-well plate format versus only two compounds with a 24-well plate format, which means an 80% reduction in chicken use. …”

Multiscale modeling of reservoir systems using geostatistical methods by Chihi, Hayet, Hammami, Mohamed Amin, Mezni, Imen, Belayouni, Habib, Ben Mammou, Abdallah

“…The original and extended data are then coded and stored in a common georeferenced database. This provides a detailed input for the geostatistical modeling procedures that enabled to precisely capture the varying extent and shape of the hydrogeological units at regional scale.Geophysical data, available along the Jeffara plain, were added as a complement to the Jeffara geodatabase and used to establish the fault network and to build a local architectural model of the coastal aquifer system, based on time-to-depth conversion using kriging with external drift.The results have allowed (i) a major update of the geological configuration of the Jeffara basin, (ii) more precision on the geometries and extent of the stratigraphic sequences and (iii) an accurate prediction of the main characteristics of water reservoirs, i.e. their occurrence, thickness, facies and dynamic properties variation at the basin and reservoir scale. …”

Therapeutic efficacy of LysGH15 against necrotising pneumonia caused by Staphylococcus aureus in a rabbit model by Bowei Zhang, Liran Song, Yongran Wang, Meimei Zhang, Chong Chen, Hui Ning, Li Wang, Cao Qiu, Xinwu Wang, Changjiang Sun, Xin Feng, Wenyu Han, Wenyu Han, Bin Wang, Yalu Ji, Jingmin Gu, Jingmin Gu

“…IntroductionStaphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is one of the most important zoonotic pathogens and can be transmitted to humans through the meat diet routes, causing necrotising pneumonia.MethodsThis study investigated the therapeutic effect of bacteriophage lysin LysGH15 on necrotising pneumonia in rabbit model caused by S. aureus.ResultsIn the in vitro experiments, 50 μg/mL LysGH15 not only significantly reduced the viable count (approximately 3.24 × 106 CFU/g) of chicken meat stored at 4°C for 48 h but also effectively reduced the viable count of chicken meat thawed at 4°C and 30°C, with reductions of approximately 1.42 × 106 CFU/g and 2.78 × 106 CFU/g, respectively. …”
