Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a Useful and Low-Cost Tool for Molecular Sexing Psittaciformes under Human Care: An Example of a Collaborative Approach in Mexico
J Appl Anim Welf Sci. 2024 May 9:1-10. doi: 10.1080/10888705.2024.2352415. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSex determination in monomorphic birds is a precondition for captive breeding programs and management and conservation strategies for threatened species. Most species of the order Psittaciformes often present complications since these birds lack external sexual phenotypic traits, making it impossible to differentiate males and females. In the present study, we used molecular techniques to determine the sex of 31 individuals belonging to nine species of the order Psittaciformes kept under human care at the Akumal Monkey ...

Motor evoked potentials in the human upper and lower limb do not increase after single 30-minute sessions of acute intermittent hypoxia
J Appl Physiol (1985). 2024 May 9. doi: 10.1152/japplphysiol.00010.2024. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAcute Intermittent Hypoxia (AIH) can induce sustained facilitation of motor output in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). Most studies of corticospinal tract excitability in humans have used 9% FiO2 AIH (AIH-9%), with inconsistent outcomes. We investigated the effect of single sessions of 9% FiO2 and 12% FiO2 AIH (AIH-12%) on corticospinal excitability of a hand and leg muscle in able-bodied adults. Ten naïve participants without SCI completed three sessions comprising 15 cycles of one minute of AIH-9%, AIH-12% or sham...

Reprocessable, Highly Transparent Ionic Conductive Elastomers Based on β-Amino Ester Chemistry for Sensing Devices
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces. 2024 May 2. doi: 10.1021/acsami.4c03559. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIonic conductive elastomers (ICEs) exhibit a compelling combination of ionic conductivity and elastic properties, rendering them excellent candidates for stretchable electronics, particularly in applications like sensing devices. Despite their appeal, a significant challenge lies in the reprocessing of ICEs without compromising their performance. To address this issue, we propose a strategy that leverages covalent adaptable networks (CANs) for the preparation of ICEs. Specifically, β-amino ester bonds as dynamic motifs are in...

Farnesol and Selected Nanoparticles (Silver, Gold, Copper, and Zinc Oxide) as Effective Agents Against Biofilms Formed by Pathogenic Microorganisms
CONCLUSION: The in vitro studies demonstrated antibiofilm properties of composites based on farnesol and nanoparticles. The greatest changes in biofilm structure were triggered by AgF, causing an alteration in the biofilm formation process as well as in the biofilm structure.PMID:38645468 | PMC:PMC11032122 | DOI:10.2147/NSA.S457124 (Source: Appl Human Sci)
