Phytopathology is concerned with the prevention of crop losses due to pathogens in agricultural plant populations and with plant population biology regarding the understanding of the causes of changes in numerical abundance and gene frequency in wild plant populations (1). In line with this separation of the two research fields, pathosystems were divided by Robinson (12) into artificial (crops)...

This clinical report defines common terms of use and provides information on current practice, research, and limitations of assistive technology that can be used in systems for communication. The assessment process to determine the best devices for use with a particular child (ie, the best fit of a device) is also reviewed. The primary care pediatrician, as part of the medical home, plays an im...

Original scientific paper Support of ICT in Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC) has been recognized as the key enabler of better inclusion of persons with complex communication needs into everyday life. Due to complex, and often very individual, communication needs, such persons need the ability to quickly adapt graphical user interfaces according to their needs, skills, impairment...

Current technology provides new challenges to improve skills on people with special necessities. In fact, persons communications needs can take advantage of devices and mobile applications interact communicate easily in the most straightforward way. Augmentative alternative communication (AAC) systems are oriented users who cannot use natural language due temporary or permanent impairments, pro...

objective(s): in this study, drug loaded electrospun nanofibrous mats were prepared and drug release and mechanism from prepared nanofibers were investigated.  materials and methods: paclitaxel (ptx) loaded polylactic acid (pla) nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning. the effects of process parameters, such as ptx concentration, tip to collector distance, voltage, temperature and flow rate...
