GeoTh is a new, simple, efficient, flexible, low-cost experimental laboratory apparatus.These features make it an excellent technological tool for measuring the thermal conductivity of granular materials, e.g., soils, sand, silt, clay or artificial composites.In particular, a configuration based on the one-dimensional heat conduction in steady-stat
ABSTRACT Candida auris has emerged as an outbreak pathogen associated with high mortality.Biofilm formation and linked drug resistance are common among Candida species.Drug sequestration by the biofilm matrix accounts for much of the antifungal tolerance.In this study, we puffy spa headband examine the biofilm matrix composition and function for a
Olfaction plays an indispensable role in mediating insect behavior, such as locating host plants, mating partners, and avoidance of toxins and predators.Olfactory-related proteins are required for olfactory perception of insects.However, very few olfactory-related houston texans shorts genes have been reported in Plodia interpunctella up to now.In
In this work, we study a Markov model of cyber threats that act on a computer system.Within the framework of the model the computer system is considered as a system with failures and recoveries by analogy with models of reliability theory.To estimate functionally-temporal properties of the system we introduce a parameter called the lifetime of the
Hospital malnutrition, particularly disease-related malnutrition (DRM), is a significant public health concern associated with increased morbidity, mortality and costs.The recent Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) proposed a framework to globally standardise the diagnosis of adult malnutrition (undernutrition), allowing comparison
