Sacoglossan sea slugs (Mollusca: Opisthobranchia) are one of the few groups of specialist herbivores in the marine environment.Sacoglossans feed suctorially on the cell sap of macroalgae, from which they "steal" chloroplasts (kleptoplasty) and deterrent substances (kleptochemistry), retaining intracellularly both host plastids and chemicals.The ing
Abstract Background In 2002 we investigated an outbreak comprising 231 patients in Norway, caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and linked to the use of contaminated mouth swabs called Dent-O-Sept.Here we describe the extent of contamination seattle seahawks socks of the swabs, and identify critical points in the production process that made the contam
Abstract Background Cancer, a leading cause of mortality worldwide, continues to pose significant challenges in treatment and management.Conventional therapies often face limitations, including lack of selectivity, adverse effects, and the development of resistance mechanisms.Methods Therefore, this study aims to investigate nanocellulose, nanosele
Abstract Traits are patterns of brain signals and behaviors that are stable over time but differ across individuals, whereas states are phasic patterns that vary over time, seattle seahawks socks are influenced by the environment, yet oscillate around the traits.The quality of a social interaction depends on the traits and states of the interacting
The human prefrontal cortex has been considered different in several aspects and relatively enlarged compared to the rest of the cortical areas.Here we determine whether the white and gray matter of the prefrontal portion of the human cerebral cortex have similar or different cellular compositions relative to the rest of the cortical regions by app
