The cellular response to the recombinant NS1 protein of West Nile virus (NS1WNV) was studied using three different cell Jeans types: Vero E6 simian epithelial cells, SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells, and U-87MG human astrocytoma cells.Cells were exposed to two different forms of NS1WNV: (i) the exogenous secreted form, sNS1WNV, added to the extrac
Reactive silver inks for antiviral, repellent medical textiles with ultrasonic bleach washing durability compared to silver nanoparticles.
Medical textiles are subject to particularly harsh disinfection procedures in Jeans healthcare settings where exposure risks are high.This work demonstrates a fabric treatment consisting of a reactive silver ink and low surface energy PDMS polymer that provides for superhydrophobicity and antiviral properties against enveloped herpes simplex virus
Behavioral variability, elimination of responses, and delay-of-reinforcement gradients in SHR and WKY rats
Abstract Background Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is characterized by a pattern of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that is cross-situational, persistent, and produces social and academic impairment.Research has shown that reinforcement processes are altered in ADHD.The dynamic developmental theory has suggested that a
Surface carcass treatment with olive mill wastewater polyphenolic extract against Salmonella enteritidis and Listeria monocytogenes: in vitro and in situ assessment
In recent years, there has been an increased interest in substances that could inhibit or reduce microbial growth in food products.Olive oil industry by-products, due to bioactive compounds with potential antimicrobial properties such as polyphenols, could be used in carcass treatment to enhance hygienic and quality traits.The assessment of the ant
