In this field trial, a new combination product containing florfenicol and flunixin meglumine (FLOR-FM) was compared with commercially available products that contained only tulathromycin (TULA) or ceftiofur crystalline free acid (CCFA) for the treatment of undifferentiated fever (UF; rectal temperature >/=105.0 degrees F) in beef calves that received long-acting oxytetracycline at feedlot arriv...

We illustrate the correspondence between uncertainty sets in robust optimization and some popular risk measures in finance, and show how robust optimization can be used to generalize the concepts of these risk measures. We also show that by using properly defined uncertainty sets in robust optimization models, one can construct coherent risk measures, and address the issue of the computational ...

We report on the first measurement of the Eu isotope fractions (Eu and Eu) in s-process element–enhanced metal-poor stars. We use these ratios to investigate the Sm branching of s-process nucleosynthesis. The measurement was made by detailed study of Eu ii lines that are significantly affected by hyperfine splitting and isotope shifts in spectra of the carbon-rich very metal poor stars LP 625 4...

Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) and cassava brown streak (CBSD) are two important biotic constraints affecting (Manihot esculenta Crantz) production in sub-Saharan Africa, the deployment of varieties dually resistant to both diseases is most effective realistic way reducing losses. Crosses were carried out between a Tanzanian local cultivar (Namikonga) South American genotype (AR37-80) develop dua...

This paper analyses and discusses the patenting activity of Public Research Organizations (PROs) in Southern European countries. Despite the importance of the topic, studies about the European experience are rare. By using an original database of “American” (USPTO) and “European” (EPO) patents held by PROs in Portugal, Spain, France, Italy and Greece, we observe that the number of university pa...
