The phytopathogenic bacterium Erwinia chrysanthemi produces five major pectate lyases that are key virulence factors in soft-rot disease development.Using transcriptional fusions, we studied the regulation of pelA, pelD, and pelE gene expression as a function of variation of the external pH.pelA and pelD were expressed when bacteria were grown in a
Low-Grade Appendiceal Mucinous Neoplasm vs. Appendiceal Diverticulum: Distinction with Histomorphologic Features
Background: Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (LAMNs) are rare lesions of the vermiform appendix and characterized by mucinous epithelial proliferation, extracellular mucin, and the absence of destructive invasion.Appendiceal diverticulum (AD) is also an uncommon condition that may be challenging to differentiate from acute appendicitis when
Large-Signal DG-MOSFET Modelling for RFID Rectification
This paper analyses the undoped DG-MOSFETs capability for the operation of rectifiers for RFIDs and Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) at microwave frequencies.For this purpose, a large-signal compact model has been developed and implemented in Verilog-A.The model has been numerically dresses validated with a device simulator (Sentaurus).It is found
Patient and provider experiences with active surveillance: A scoping review.
ObjectiveActive surveillance (AS) represents a fundamental shift in managing select cancer patients that initiates treatment only upon disease progression to avoid overtreatment.Given uncertain outcomes, patient engagement could support decision-making about AS.Little is known about how to optimize patient engagement for AS decision-making.This sco
Acoustic emission-based intelligent identification of piston aero-engine ignition advance angle anomalies
Abstract Ignition advance angle is one of the important factors affecting the performance of the engine, when it occurs abnormally will make the engine power and economy worse, and even cause serious damage to the engine.Therefore, it is very necessary to recognize the abnormal ignition advance angle of the engine.However, the engine system is clos
