Handedness, Earnings, Ability and Personality. Evidence from the Lab by Marcello Sartarelli (3279513)

“…In addition, earnings significantly vary with personality only for L, increasing with extraversion and decreasing with neuroticism. Overall, our results fail to reject the null hypothesis that earnings do not differ by handedness and suggest differences in personality as a novel mechanism to rationalise L’s behaviour.…”

Threshold ecological response at Diablas lagoon. by Alistair W. R. Seddon (212860)

“…(i) 2770 cal yr BP- resilient mangrove stand at the coring site; (ii) 2000 cal yr BP- increase in sediment accumulation rates denotes feedback response of resilient mangroves in response to environmental disturbances; (iii) 1400 cal yr BP- opening of the mangrove canopy due to preceding tidal disturbance events, eroding resilience over time; (iv) (940 cal yr BP) Drier background climatic conditions and slightly decreasing RSL combine, resulting in threshold transition to microbial mat; (v) present day; contemporary lagoon conditions with cyanobacterial mat at the sediment surface.…”

Altered proteins upon mycolactone treatment. by José B. Gama (296675)

“…<p>Figure shows the proteins identified for each spot (numbers according to <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0003066#pntd-0003066-g003" target="_blank">figure 3</a> and <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0003066#pntd.0003066.s001" target="_blank">figure S1</a>) clustered into five categories. (1) Expression levels show decreased (red), increased (green) or no changes (black) in spot intensities upon mycolactone treatment. (2) MS and MS/MS parameters are presented, including the number of specific matched peptides (P), the sequence coverage (SC) in percentage, as well as the MS scores. …”

Table1_Non-GM Genome Editing Approaches in Crops.DOCX by Zheng Gong (419954)

“…Although efficient, these methods pose several problems, including 1) The transformation process requires laborious and time-consuming tissue culture and regeneration steps; 2) many crop species and elite varieties are recalcitrant to transformation; 3) The segregation of transgenes in vegetatively propagated or highly heterozygous crops, such as pineapple, is either difficult or impossible; and 4) The production of a genetically modified first generation can lead to public controversy and onerous government regulations. …”

Preservation and evaluation of spiced chayote juice using hurdle technology by Chesi Sangma (6676394)

“…The samples so prepared were filled into glass bottles and stored under refrigeration for forty-five days. As the storage period proceeded there were significant decreases in pH, total protein content, total phenolic compounds, antioxidant activity, reducing power, metal chelation, tannin content, ascorbic acid content and overall acceptability, whereas there were significant increases in TSS (total soluble solids), titratable acidity, reducing sugars, total sugar, TPC (total plate count) and MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration). …”

Clinical and epidemiological profile of tuberculosis in an urban area with high human development index in southeastern Brazil. Time series study by Rodolpho Telarolli Junior (4647697)

“…<div><p>ABSTRACT CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: In the twenty-first century, tuberculosis remains a serious public health problem in Brazil. The aim here was to characterize tuberculosis in a municipality with a high human development index (HDI), based on clinical and epidemiological variables. …”

Effects of feeding strategy on larval development of the Amazon River prawn Macrobrachium amazonicum by Mariana Cutolo de Araujo (12802107)

“…Larvae were fed from stage II to IX, as follows: Artemia nauplii + inert diet during the entire larval cycle (AIn); Artemia nauplii for the entire larval cycle + inert diet from stage V onward (A/AIn); Artemia nauplii until stage IV + inert diet from stage IV onward (A/In); and only inert diet for the entire larval cycle (In). …”
