We evaluated results of over 4400 documented faecal parasitological examinations between 2000 and 2007 in more than 90 individuals of six species of Birds of Paradise (BoP). Between 2000 and 2007, 83.2% of investigated samples were negative for parasites, and the number of negative samples increased consistently over the years; in positive samples, the proportion of Capillaria sp decreased (fro...

Pharmacokinetically tailored insulin has been rationally designed by molecular structural engineering and/or pharmaceutical formulation to improve glucose control and convenience for people with diabetes.Novel mechanisms protracted action based on reduced plasma clearance hold promise enable once-weekly subcutaneous once-daily oral basal delivery.Hepato-preferential analogs can be tailoring siz...

Zooplankton organisms with short generation times, such as rotifers, are ideal models to study general ecological and evolutionary questions on the population level, because meaningful experiments can often be completed within a couple of weeks. Yet biological analysis of such populations is often extremely time consuming, owing to abundance estimation by counting, measuring body size, or deter...

According to Sacks, it was Friedberg’s construction of a maximal recursively enumerable (r.e.) set that sparked interest in the distributive lattice of r.e. sets, modulo finite sets, under inclusion. Among the major results are the Lachlan’s characterization of the principal filters of hh-simple sets and Soare’s proof that the maximal sets form an orbit. We study the modular lattice L* of r.e. ...
