This paper is divided in three components: 1) Comparing the omasal and the reticular sampling techniques; 2) Elaborating on the dual-flow continuous culture system; and 3) Summarizing recent studies on canola meal as the main protein supplement for lactating dairy cows. The goal is to illustrate some peculiarities among these three different methodologies and to point out recent findings on can...

In this article the authors discuss first why it is crucial, from a clinical and public health perspective, to better understand the development as well as risk and protection processes for the mental health of immigrant children. The authors then shift focus to the main tenet of this article, namely, that specific aspects of the dual language development of immigrant children are highly releva...

In this study, we showed that the dual addition of glucosyl ceramide synthase and ceramidase inhibitors to A549 cell culture led to the possibility of ceramide channel formation via endogenous palmitoyl-ceramide accumulation with an increase in cholesterol contents in the lysosome membrane as an initial step prior to initiation of necrotic cell death. In addition, the dual addition led to black...

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is an emerging imaging modality to monitor 3D cell culture dynamics through reconstructing the electrical properties of clusters. Recently, machine-learning (ML)-based approaches have achieved significant gains for image reconstruction EIT against conventional physical model-based methods. However, continuous, multilevel conductivity distributions, which co...

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive phenotype that is resistant to standard therapy. Thus, the development of alternative therapeutic strategies for TNBC is essential. The purpose of our in vitro study was to evaluate the impact of p53 gene silencing in conjunction with the administration of a natural compound, epigallocatechingallate (EGCG). RT2Profiler PCR Array techno...

Based on the dual structure of culture algorithm, a multi-population cooperative cultural algorithm is proposed by embedding the competition cooperative genetic algorithm into the population space of culture algorithm. In each sub-population, genetic algorithm is adopted. And its population size is adjusted in terms of population density so as to enhance the diversity. In belief space, each kin...

Biological control products were tested in vitro with six isolates of Phytophthora ramorum. These isolates were geographically diverse and were selected based on their pathogenicity to detached Rhododendron leaves. In addition to five commercially available biocontrol products, nine species of Trichoderma were tested. The in vitro tests included dual culture methods and detached Rhododendron le...

This paper is an investigation of $L$-dual frames with respect to a function-valued inner product, the so called $L$-bracket product on $L^{2}(G)$, where G is a locally compact abelian group with a uniform lattice $L$. We show that several well known theorems for dual frames and dual Riesz bases in a Hilbert space remain valid for $L$-dual frames and $L$-dual Riesz bases in $L^{2}(G)$.

A total of 62 bacterial isolates were obtained from Gomsohang mud flat, Mohang mud flat, and Jeju Island, Republic of Korea. Among them, the isolate CNU114001 showed significant antagonistic activity against pathogenic fungi by dual culture method. The isolate CNU114001 was identified as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens by morphological observation and molecular data analysis, including 16SrDNA and g...
