Viewpoint on 'Oscillating paramagnetic Meissner effect and Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition in underdoped BiSrCaCuO'.

The experimental team achieves impressive progress in detecting the signature of the local magnetic response of a system close to a phase transition.

Hydrodynamics of Borromean Counterfluids.

Counterflow superfluidity in a system with N≥3 components is distinctively different from the N=2 case. The key feature is the difference between the number (N) of elementary vortex excitations and the number (N-1) of independent branches of phonon modes, that is, the number of superfluid modes is larger than the number of ordered phase variables. We formulate a hydrodynamic theory of this state.

Heterogenous Induction of Blocking Antibodies against Ragweed Allergen Molecules by Allergen Extract-Based Immunotherapy Vaccines.

Currently, allergen-specific immunotherapy (AIT) for ragweed allergy is still based on natural allergen extracts. This study aimed to analyse the ability of four commercially available AIT vaccines (CLUSTOID, TYRO-SIT, POLLINEX Quattro Plus and Diater Depot) regarding their ability to induce IgG antibodies against ragweed pollen allergens in rabbits. Accordingly, the IgG reactivity of AIT-induced rabbit sera was tested for ten different ragweed pollen allergens (Amb a 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12) by an ELISA.

Non-Specific Lipid Transfer Protein Amb a 6 Is a Source-Specific Important Allergenic Molecule in Ragweed Pollen.

Pollen from common ragweed is an important allergen source worldwide and especially in western and southern Romania. More than 100 million patients suffer from symptoms of respiratory allergy (e.g.
