Anthropogenic activities are exposing insects to elevated levels of toxic metals and are altering the bioavailability of essential metals.Metals and metal isotopes have also become promising tools for the geolocation of migratory insects.Understanding the pathways of metal incorporation in insect tissues is thus important for assessing the role of
ABSTRACT High-throughput amplicon sequencing is a critical tool for studying microbiota; however, it results only in relative abundance data.Thus, changes in absolute abundance of microbiota cannot be determined, which hinders further microbiology research.We have therefore established a gradient internal standard absolute quantification (GIS-AQ) m
Abstract We performed whole genome sequencing of a cidofovir {[(S)-1-(3-hydroxy-2-phosphonylmethoxy-propyl) cytosine] [HPMPC]}-resistant (CDV-R) strain of Monkeypoxvirus (MPV).Whole-genome comparison with the wild-type (WT) strain revealed 55 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and one tandem-repeat contraction.Over one-third of all identified S
In the conventional RTK (Real Time Kinematics), copyright phase measurements should be collected for several minutes in stationary state in order to determine the IA (Integer Ambiguity) in copyright phase to get the precise position.To determine the 5326058hx IA in motion, several OTM-RTK (On-The-Move RTK) methods have been proposed using vehicle d
The occurrence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in tuberculosis (TB) is not uncommon in adults but is relatively rare in children.We report the case of a 13-year-old girl who presented with fever and cough for 2 months followed by acute onset of pedal edema.She was diagnosed with disseminated TB and DVT of the right femoral and common iliac veins.A ti
