The first known outbreak of eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) in Vermont occurred on an emu farm in Rutland County in 2011. The first isolation of EEE virus (EEEV) in Vermont (VT11) was during this outbreak. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that VT11 was most closely related to FL01, a strain from Florida isolated in 2001, which is both geographically and temporally distinct from VT11. EEEV RNA w...

Este trabalho mostra as reações entre 2-trifluoracetil-1-metoxi-1-cicloalquenos (1a-1e) ou 2-trifluoracetilcicloalcanonas e bromo molecular, para produção de ω-bromo-2trifluoracetilcicloalcanonas (3a-3e, 4a). Ficou demonstrado que o grupo 2-trifluoracetil determina o sítio de bromação no C-omega, carbono vizinho à carbonila endocíclica. Os produtos 2-trifluoracetilcicloalcanonas e ω-bromo-α-tri...

rém, ela percebeu que nesses episódios se ingerisse uma barra de chocolate, melhorava muito... Os autores sugerem que o mundo padronize uma única unidade de mensuração, para evitar esse tipo de acidente. Aqui no Brasil já foi sugerida várias vezes uma mudança de método de expressão das unidades de bioquímica, mas nossos médicos já treinados em mg/dl não têm se entusiasmado com a sugestão e pref...

A mosquito study based on collections from horse-baited stable traps was conducted in 1993 and 1994 at 3 sites in geographically and ecologically distinct areas of St. Tammany Parish (southeastern Louisiana) to determine the major horse-feeding mosquito species that could be possible bridging and epidemic vectors of eastern equine encephalomyelitis virus. A total of 4,535 mosquitoes in 1993 and...

The Western Airborne Contaminants Assessment Project showed that USA National Parks had fish mercury (Hg) concentrations above threshold concentrations set for wildlife. Since significant areas of the Western USA are arid, we hypothesized that dry deposition would be important. The primary question was whether sources of Hg were local and thus, easily addressed, or regional (from within the Uni...

BACKGROUND Only a few studies to evaluate groundwater fluoride in Eastern Africa have been undertaken outside the volcanic belt of the Great Eastern Africa Rift Valley. The extent and impact of water fluoride outside these regions therefore remain unclear. The current study evaluated fluoride levels in household water sources in Bondo-Rarieda Area in the Kenyan part of the Lake Victoria Basin (...

Although eastern Asia (EAS) and eastern North America (ENA) have similar climates, plant species richness in EAS greatly exceeds that in ENA. The degree to which this diversity difference reflects the ages of the floras or their rates of evolutionary diversification has not been quantified. Measures of species diversity that do not incorporate the ages of lineages disregard the evolutionary dis...

Xenoliths hosted by Cenozoic volcanic flows and plugs from the Central Sierra Nevada and Eastern Sierra Nevada, Owens Valley, and Inyo Mountains were studied for petrography and thermobarometry. The Central Sierra Nevada suite consists of abundant lower crustal feldspathic granulites, garnet clinopyroxenites, and mantle-derived peridotites and garnet websterites. Mafic crustal assemblages occur...
