Abstract Nile tilapia is known for its relative tolerance to some biotic and abiotic stressors. However, long-period water exchange may impair the health status and, thereby, growth performance feed utilization. In this regard, using herbal extracts help relieve adverse impacts of low quality on productivity fish species. A 100-day feeding trial was designed examine effects dietary supplements ...

Many algorithms exploiting the signal cyclostationarity have been shown to be effective in performing antenna array beamforming. However, these algorithms can not provide a unique weight vector for simultaneously extracting multiple signals of interest (SOIs) with distinct cycle frequencies (DCFs). They also suffer from severe performance degradation in the presence of a cycle frequency error (...

This paper examines the recommendations contained in Curriculum for Excellence (CfE) aimed at encouraging the integration of knowledge, skills and understanding across different areas of the curriculum. It first outlines what is said in the official CfE documentation and supporting materials produced by Education Scotland, noting the absence of references to earlier work on curriculum integrati...

The objective of this article is to analyse the pensions private sector workers, comparing them with those public sector. work framed under deductive method, a hermeneutic paradigm and quantitative approach. By 2018 in Mexico, total number pensioners Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS), 1.5 million received less than 5,000 pesos per month (69.8% IMSS 46.7% national total); while Services S...

An environmentally friendly method using a cell-free extract (CFE) of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata is proposed to synthesize gold nanowires with a network structure. This procedure offers control over the shapes of gold nanoparticles with the change of HAuCl4 concentration. The CFE solutions were added with different concentrations of HAuCl4, resulting in the bioreduction of gold ions and biosynt...

Wu(1994) listed ten words as CFs’ markers in Chinese, they are 早 (early) , 了 (perfect/perfective marker), 要不是/要不然 (had it not been the case), 没(didn’t), 就好了 (would have been great if only),还以为(had thought), 原来应该(should have been), ...的 话 (in the case), 真的 (really). However, according to our definitions, none of them are dedicated CFs markers but only CFE 1 markers except要不是. Several observation...

In C3 plants, CO2 concentrations drop considerably along mesophyll diffusion pathways from substomatal cavities to chloroplasts where CO2 assimilation occurs. Global carbon cycle models have not explicitly represented this internal drawdown and therefore overestimate CO2 available for carboxylation and underestimate photosynthetic responsiveness to atmospheric CO2. An explicit consideration of ...

The effects of simulated long-term exposure carbon-fiber/epoxy (CFE) hollow cylinders to high pressure seawater were investigated experimentally. Utilizing accelerated life testing informed by the Arrhenius methodology, specimens aged in 41.1 MPa (6000 psi) pressurized 3.5% saline water for durations representing 0, 193.5, and 516 days service at 3 °C. Hydrostatically explosively initiated impl...

Anthropogenic change is a major threat to dwindling freshwater biodiversity. We present and synthesise available information regarding the fish community, ecology, threats conservation options within The Cape Fold Ecoregion (CFE) of South Africa. CFE particularly vulnerable region, with many range-restricted species highly fragmented native ranges. Rondegat River in Olifants-Doring System Weste...

Abstract Background Cerebral fat embolism (CFE) syndrome at high altitude was rare complicated with paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity (PSH) and septic shock. It is a challenge to differential diagnosis treatment altitude. Case presentation This case presents CFE PSH shock of 23-year-old man occurred 3800 m above sea level, transferred by airplane successfully cured in the department neurosur...
