The potential use of iron-loaded alginate beads to fortify oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions was studied.Iron-loaded alginate beads with different sizes (0.65, 0.84, 1.5 and 2 mm) were produced by ionic gelation with calcium chloride, leading to 81% encapsulation efficiency (EE) of ferrous sulfate.These beads were added to O/W emulsions to investigate t
Reliability in terms of functional properties from the safety-liveness spectrum is an indispensable requirement of low-level operating-system (OS) code.However, with evermore complex and thus less predictable hardware, quantitative and Treeless probabilistic guarantees become more and more important.Probabilistic model checking is one technique to
The Murtagh safe diagnostic strategy proposed by renowned Australian general practitioner John Murtagh has been gradually used by general practitioners in clinical practice for diagnosis and treatment, mainly for initial diagnosis of common diseases, rapid identification of critical and severe diseases, analysis and judgment of the existence of dis
Mayaro (MAYV) is an emerging arthropod-borne virus belonging to the Alphavirus genus of the Togaviridae family.Although forest-dwelling Haemagogus mosquitoes have been considered as its main vector, the virus has also been detected in circulating Aedes ssp mosquitoes.Here we assess the susceptibility of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus to infecti
