Pomacea canaliculata, Asian the invasive snail, is a host of the parasitic nematode Angiostrongylus cantonensis, which has adverse effects on the agriculture system and human health.This work evaluated the molluscicidal activity of petroleum ether extracts (PEEs) from three species of Chimonanthus against the snail P.canaliculate.Pcp (PEE of C.prae
We have generated a novel monoclonal antibody targeting human FGFR1c (R1c mAb) that caused profound body weight and body fat Self Aligning Bearing loss in diet-induced obese mice due to decreased food intake (with energy expenditure unaltered), in turn improving glucose control.R1c mAb also caused weight loss in leptin-deficient ob/ob mice, leptin
Assessing infrastructure sustainability requires an evaluation of technical, economic, environmental, and social dimensions, with the latter often being overlooked.Asphalt mixtures incorporating end-of-life tire textile fiber additives in Chile have emerged as a sustainable alternative to conventional fibers.However, the social sustainability of th
Although most felids have an exclusive carnivore diet, the presence of plant matter in scat has been reported among various species.This indicates that there may be an adaptive significance to the conservation of plant-eating behavior in felid evolution.Some studies have hypothesized that felids consume plants for self-medication or as a source of
