Abstract The presence of coliforms, Mastadenovirus (AdV), and Canine protoparvovirus (CPV) in an Environmental Education Center, which contains city kennel, was investigated. Surface water wastewater, dogs’ stool, lettuce samples were collected from the irrigation system both periods October 2017 February 2018. Water analyzed for human AdV (HAdV) canine (CAV), CPV, total coliforms (TC), Escheri...

Spherical virions can be structurally divided into two compositions: the outer protein shell, and its content including the viral genome and enzymes. Threedimensional virus structures are the key to understanding the virus life cycles and their mechanisms for infecting hosts, which can contribute to anti-viral drug design. These structures can be solved either by X-ray crystallization (Harrison...

Unique cytoplasmic structures, herein designated as type I cytopathic vacuoles (CPV-I), are found in chick embryo cells early in the logarithmic phase of Semliki Forest virus replication. High resolution autoradiography demonstrated that the CPV-I are loci of (3)H-uridine incorporation. This evidence correlates well with previous biochemical data and electron microscopy of the subcellular fract...

A finite element model has been created to quantify the thermal fatigue damage of the CPV die attach. Simulations are used to compare to results of empirical thermal fatigue equations originally developed for accelerated chamber cycling. While the empirical equations show promise when extrapolated to the lower temperature cycles characteristic of weather-induced temperature changes in the CPV d...

Canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV-2) is one of the most common viruses responsible for acute hemorrhagic enteritis in dogs. A rapid and accurate diagnosis of CPV-2 infection is especially important in kennels in order to isolate infected dogs. The aim of the present study was to compare two laboratory tests i.e., Polymerase Change Reaction (PCR) and Immunochromatography assay (ICA) most commonly us...

Photovoltaic (PV) devices are spectrally selective, and their performance is influenced by unavoidable spectral variations. In addition, multijunction-based concentrating photovoltaic (CPV) devices show a strong spectral dependence due to the series connection of various junctions with different absorption bands, and also due to the use of concentrator optics. In this work, the accuracy of a ne...

Abstract This study examined the longitudinal relationships between three psychopathic trait dimensions (callous-unemotional, CU; grandiose-manipulative, GM; and impulsive-irresponsible, II) their interaction in prediction of psychological physical child-to-parent violence (CPV). Furthermore, whether predictive were different for boys girls. A total 765 adolescents (463 girls), with a mean age ...

Concentrated photovoltaics (CPV) has recently gained interest based on its scalability and expected low levelized cost of electricity. The reliability of materials used in CPV systems, however, is not well established. The current qualification test for photodegradation of CPV modules includes only real-time ultraviolet (UV) exposure, i.e. methods for accelerated UV testing have not been develo...

Worldwide solar photovoltaic (PV) markets have grown at an average rate at 38% over the past ten years. While polysilicon flat panel PV modules have traditionally dominated the overall solar market, a range of different solar energy conversion technologies are starting to gain market share. One such class of solar technologies, concentrator photovoltaics (CPV), is in its commercial infancy but ...
