Despite increasing use of molecular diagnostics in clinical parasitology laboratories, a mainstay faecal remains microscopy by capable microbiologist. With decreasing rates parasitic infection high income nations such as Australia, the opportunity to regularly see elements faeces is decreasing. At times, unusual or suspicious may be observed smears. An important skill for all conducting able de...

Folded monopole antenna (FMA) which can cover 2.5/3.5 GHz bands of WiMAX is already reported. In this study, all the three bands of WiMAX are covered by placing a parasitic element in the vicinity of FMA. Furtheremore, two FMAs and parasitic elements are used in order to anlyze the basic characteristics of MIMO antenna using an electromangnetic simulator. As a result, the 3rd band, 5.5 GHz band...

Reptiles have increased in popularity worldwide; snakes and lizards are frequently used as pets. As a consequence of their popularity, the interest of the scientific community in these animals has increased. In order to acquire epidemiological data on the parasitic infections affecting reptiles in Italy a survey was carried out in 125 snakes and 25 lizards bred in the Campania region of souther...

In recent years, wireless communication technology has been studied intensively. In particular, MIMO which employs several transmit and receive antennas is a key technology for enhancing spectral efficiency. However, conventional MIMO architectures require some transceiver circuits for the sake of transmitting and receiving separate signals, which incurs the cost of one RF front-end per antenna...

BACKGROUND Dogs are associated with more than 60 zoonotic diseases among which, parasitosis and, in particular, helminthosis, can pose serious public-health concerns worldwide. Many canine gastrointestinal parasites eliminate their dispersion elements (eggs, larvae, oocysts) by the faecal route. The quantity of canine faeces deposited on public and private property in cities worldwide is both a...

Face-to-face (F2F) bonding in three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs), compared with other bonding styles, is closer to commercialization because of its benefits in terms of density, yield, and cost. However, despite the benefits that F2F bonding expect to provide, it’s physical nature has not been studied thoroughly. In this study, we, for the first time, extract cross-die (inter-die) p...
