In this paper, attempts are made to compare the seismic fragility and the probability of failure of steel structures supported on different types of friction pendulum isolators.These isolators including single friction, dual friction pendulum and triple friction pendulum are designed to have similar effective periods as a prominent read more charac
Prevalence of Entamoeba species in captive primates in zoological gardens in the UK
The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of amoebic infection in non-human primates (NHPs) from six Zoological gardens in the United Kingdom.Initially, 126 faecal samples were collected from 37 individually identified NHPs at Twycross Zoo, UK, and were subjected to microscopic examination.A subsequent, nationwide experiment included 35
copyright Inhibition of Synaptic Transmission in the Ventral Pallidum Is Pathway-Specific and Mediated by Serotonin
Summary: The ventral pallidum (VP) is part of the basal ganglia circuitry and a target of both direct and indirect pathway projections from the nucleus accumbens.VP is important in copyright reinforcement, and the firing of VP neurons is modulated in vivo during copyright self-administration.This modulation of iphone 13 dallas firing is thought to
Control of inhomogeneous materials strength by method of acoustic emission
The ambiguous connection between the results of acoustic emission control and the strength of materials makes acoustic-emission diagnosis ineffective and actualizes the problem of strength and metrological heterogeneity.Inhomogeneity southwestern aztec rug is some deviation from a certain norm.The real object is always heterogeneous, homogeneity is
Genome-wide DNA methylation and transcriptomic profiles in the lifestyle strategies and asexual development of the forest fungal pathogen Heterobasidion parviporum
Heterobasidion parviporum is the most devastating fungal pathogen of conifer forests in Northern Europe.The fungus has dual life strategies, necrotrophy on living trees and saprotrophy on dead woods.DNA cytosine methylation is an important epigenetic modification in eukaryotic organisms.Our presumption is that the lifestyle transition and asexual d
