In this paper, we introduce a general Bibs numerical method to approximate the reproduction numbers of a large class of multi-group, age-structured, population models with a finite age span.To provide complete flexibility in the definition of the birth and transition processes, we propose an equivalent formulation for the age-integrated state withi

Abstract Background Postural stability requires coordination of the visual, somatosensory, and vestibular systems.Cognitive tasks can Control Panel Trim divert attention from maintaining posture, potentially reducing body sway and fall risk.The effect on postural stability increases with cognitive load complexity.Understanding these aspects is cruc

The present Power work analises the main questions and hurdles involved in the adoption of a electronic scientific publication system, those related to the scientific community practices and rules of conduct.We emphasize the quality certification through peer review, interity and legitimiy maintenance and privacity preservation in the digital envir

Abstract Background Plasmodiophora brassicae is a soil-borne plant pathogen that causes clubroot disease, which results in crop yield loss in cultivated Brassica species.Here, we investigated whether a quantitative trait locus (QTL) in B.rapa might confer resistance to a Korean P.brassicae pathotype isolate, Seosan.We crossed resistant and suscepti

We describe a protocol to purify latex bead phagosomes (LBPs) from Dictyostelium Engine Parts cells.These can be later used for various in vitro functional assays.For instance, we use these LBPs to understand the microtubule motor-driven transport on in vitro polymerized microtubules.Phagosomes are allowed to mature for defined periods inside cells
