Chronic multifocal osteomyelitis: Is infectious causation a moot point?
Summary: Chronic multifocal osteomyelitis (CMO) is an uncommon disease entity with descriptions possibly emanating from the medical literature over one century ago, and there are numerous disease entities which have been historically detailed and which are probably synonymous.The illness is one of chronicity with exacerbating and remitting focal bo
Identification of avian polyomavirus and its pathogenicity to SPF chickens
The research aimed to study an Avian polyomavirus strain that was isolated in Shandong, China.To study the pathogenicity of APV in SPF chickens, and provide references for epidemiological research and disease prevention snowman rubber duck and control of APV.The genetic characterization of APV strain (termed APV-20) was analyzed and the pathogenici
An Inductive Debris Sensor for a Large-Diameter Lubricating Oil Circuit Based on a High-Gradient Magnetic Field
Wear is one of the main factors of machine failure.If abnormal wear was not detected in time during the operation of a mechanical system, it probably leads to catastrophic consequences.The wear debris in the lubricating oil circuit contains much lambanog for sale information about equipment wear.Consequently, debris detection is regarded as an effe
Inhibition of Food-Borne Pathogen Growth and Biogenic Amine Synthesis by Spice Extracts
Food-borne pathogens and their toxins cause significant health problems in humans.Formation of biogenic amines (BAs) produced by microbial decarboxylation of amino acids in food is undesirable because it can induce toxic effects in consumers.Therefore, it is crucial to investigate the effects of natural additives with high bioactivity like spice ex
