User experience reevaluation and diffusion of technology in the context of compulsory usage illustrated by the example of telepsychotherapy-a literature review.

Objective: Models explaining technology acceptance fail to recognize the influence temporary, compulsory usage, meaning forced usage due to external factors, may have on user evaluation and continued diffusion. However, in context of the Covid-19 pandemic, a highly infectious respiratory disease, the significance of this factor is evident. Triggered by legal contact restrictions and extended reimbursement capacities, usage of telepsychotherapy increased drastically, thereby influencing therapists' attitude and increasing the technology's maturity.

Molecular cloning, mapping, and functional analysis of the bovine sulfate transporter SLC26a2 gene.

Sulfate is one of the most important macronutrients in cells and the major sulfur source in many organisms as well as one of the most abundant anions in the serum. As sulfate is a hydrophilic anion, movement across the lipid bilayer is mediated by transporters that regulate efflux and influx. Here, we report the molecular cloning, mapping, and functional analysis of the bovine solute carrier/sulfate transporter SLC26a2 gene, the first member of this family to be cloned in cattle.
