The research on tourism is constant and unending; food wine still represents a small part inside this wider field. Wine events are critical for sustainable development of rural areas. In context, the emotional bond between tourists regions producers that they visit created, not just through as product, but also set hedonic features present in tasting experience. To reach objectives, quantitativ...

In the article authors deal with verification, attribution and introduction into scientific circulation of a number Hebrew inscriptions on Early Modern ceramic vessels. This issue has not been raised in Ukrainian archaeological publications yet. Such isolated were previously wrongly interpreted as potters’ marks. More than dozen vessels are known today. particular, they found during excavations...

PurposeSurvival after lung transplantation (LT) is hampered by the development of chronic allograft dysfunction (CLAD). There no treatment available to reverse CLAD once diagnosed, but early intervention could modify progressive function decline. Thus, biomarkers are need for detection CLAD. High levels donor derived cell-free DNA (ddcfDNA) have been described precede acute cellar rejection and...

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the reader to the mathematical construct known as holonomy. Holonomy is a measurement of the change in a certain angle as one travels along a curve. For this paper, we will consider two physical situations which involve “traveling in a circle” and comparing an initial and final measurement of an angle. In the first case we will see how this angular disp...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are widely used in industry and biomedicine. While several studies have focused on biological matters, attempts to systematically elucidate the toxicity mechanisms of CNTs are limited. The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare the cytotoxicity of raw multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and MWCNTs functionalized with carboxylation (MWCNTs-COOH) or polyet...

Spontaneous fermentations are still conducted by several wineries in different regions of Argentina as a common practice. Native Saccharomyces strains associated with winery equipment, grape and spontaneous fermentations of Malbec musts from "Zona Alta del Río Mendoza" region (Argentina) were investigated during 2001 and 2002 in the same cellar. Low occurrence of Saccharomyces on grapes and the...

Culex quinquefasciatus Say mosquitoes flourish in belowground stormwater systems in the southern United States. Recent evidence suggests that oviposition-site-seeking females may have difficulties locating, entering, and ovipositing inside permanent water chambers when surface entry through pickholes in manhole covers are sealed. It remains unknown, however, if newly emerged adults are able to ...

Feline panleukopenia is a common contagious disease with high morbidity and mortality. At present, feline parvovirus (FPV) and canine parvovirus (CPV) variants are the pathogens of feline panleukopenia. Many studies have shown that miRNAs are involved in virus-host interactions. Nevertheless, miRNA expression profiling of FPV (original virus) or CPV-2b (new virus) in cats has not been reported....

In this paper, we derive the Cramer-Rao bound (CRB) for joint target position and velocity estimation using an active or passive distributed radar network under more general, and practically occurring, conditions than assumed in previous work. In particular, the presented results allow nonorthogonal signals, spatially dependent Gaussian reflection coefficients, and spatially dependent Gaussian ...

This paper reports the influence of cider-making technology (pneumatic and traditional pressing) on the dynamics of wild yeast populations. Yeast colonies isolated from apple juice before and throughout fermentation at a cider cellar of Asturias (Spain), during two consecutive years were studied. The yeast strains were identified by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of the 5.8S ...
