Mycobacterium colombiense is a novel member of the Mycobacterium avium complex, which produces respiratory and disseminated infections in immunosuppressed patients. Currently, the morphological and genetic bases underlying the phenotypic features of M. colombiense strains remain unknown. In the present study, we demonstrated that M. colombiense strains displaying smooth morphology show increase...

This position paper provides an overview of the Open Source Software movement and defines how companies can approach, exploit, and learn from it. More specifically, this position paper will first provide the needed details on Open Source licensing models – a key element to be aware of in order to safely approach Open Source. Then, it will provide motivating rationales for getting involved in Op...

Integrating architectural elements with a modern programming language is essential to ensure a smooth combination of architectural design and programming. In this position statement, we motivate a combination of architectural description for distributed, asynchronously communicating systems and Java as an example for such an integration. The result is an ordinary programming language, that exhi...

Previous studies using Deionized (DI) water found that household plastic products used in food preparation and storage are a local immediate source of extremely high quantities microplastics (MPs) released directly into to the human body environment. However, DI is rarely outside laboratories. Here, MP release from exposed ordinary drinking was studied. To facilitate this study, concept Synthet...

UNLABELLED In the genomic and proteomic era, efficient and automated analyses of sequence properties of protein have become an important task in bioinformatics. There are general public licensed (GPL) software tools to perform a part of the job. However, computations of mean properties of large number of orthologous sequences are not possible from the above mentioned GPL sets. Further, there is...

The present authors have previously reported the usefulness of a serodiagnostic test to detect serum glycopeptidolipid (GPL) core antibody in diagnosing Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) lung disease in immunocompetent patients. The aim of the present study was to investigate correlations between the levels of antibody against GPL core and chest computed tomography (CCT) findings in patients wi...
