A search for spectral hysteresis and energy-dependent time lags from x-ray and tev gamma-ray observations of mrk 421
(American Astronomical Society, 2016-12-22)
Blazars are variable emitters across all wavelengths over a wide range of timescales, from months down to minutes. It is therefore essential to observe blazars simultaneously at different wavelengths, especially in the ...
A search for brief optical flashes associated with the seti target kic 8462852
(American Astronomical Society, 2016-02-18)
The F-type star KIC. 8462852 has recently been identified as an exceptional target for search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) observations. We describe an analysis methodology for optical SETI, which we have used ...
Protein charge determination and implications for interactions in cell extracts
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-12-01)
Decades of dilute-solution studies have revealed the influence of charged residues on protein stability, solubility and stickiness. Similar characterizations are now required in physiological solutions to understand the ...
Grasping the nature of the cell interior: fromphysiological chemistrytochemical biology
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-05-11)
Current models of the cell interior emphasise its crowded, chemically complex and dynamically organised structure. Although the chemical composition of cells is known, the cooperative intermolecular interactions that govern ...
The use of anti stretch marks’ products by women in pregnancy: a descriptive, cross-sectional survey
(Springer Nature, 2016-09-21)
Background: Stretch marks (Striae gravidarum) are a cutaneous change occurring commonly during pregnancy. A variety of products are available and promoted as ways to prevent or reduce their development, but it is not clear ...
Polymeric gene carriers bearing pendant β-cyclodextrin: the relevance of glycoside permethylation on the “in vitro” cell response
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-02-02)
The incorporation of cyclodextrins (CDs) to nonviral cationic polymer vectors is very attractive due to recent studies that report a clear improvement of their cytocompatibility and transfection efficiency. However, a ...

Going beyond fadn: the use of additional data to gain insights into extension service use across european union member states
(Research Institute of Agricultural Economics, 2016-12-01)
This paper examines the use of extension services by farm households across eight European Union (EU) Member States, exploring the type of extension service engaged with, the degree of engagement and the type of information ...
Implementation of blinded outcome assessment in the effective verruca treatments trial (evert) – lessons learned
(Springer Nature, 2016-07-12)
Background: Trials using inadequate levels of blinding may report larger effect sizes than blinded studies. It has been suggested that blinded outcome assessment in open trials may in some cases be undertaken by assessments ...
Survival, biofilm formation, and growth potential of environmental and enteric escherichia coli strains in drinking water microcosms
(American Society for Microbiology, 2016-06-24)
Escherichia coli is the most commonly used indicator for fecal contamination in drinking water distribution systems (WDS). The assumption is that E. coli bacteria are of enteric origin and cannot persist for long outside ...
