Environmental high temperature affects pre-implantation embryo development by impairing the DNA repair ability.

Environmental high temperature poses a significant threat to human health, however, limited information is available for understanding the relationship between the hot weather and infertility. This study aims to assess the adverse effect of the hot weather to early embryonic cells. Our results indicated that environmental high temperature exposure could cause the decline of early embryo quality and implantation ability.

Study on the alleviative effect of on infection.

Coccidia of the genus are specialized intracellular parasitic protozoa that cause severe coccidiosis when they infect their hosts. Animals infected with develop clinical symptoms, such as anorexia, diarrhea, and hematochezia, which can even cause death. Although the current preferred regimen for the treatment of coccidiosis is antibiotics, this treatment strategy is limited by the ban on antibiotics and the growing problem of drug resistance.

Detection of Respiratory Events during Sleep Based on Fusion Analysis and Entropy Features of Cardiopulmonary Signals.

Sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) is a common sleep disorder with a high prevalence. The apnea hypopnea index (AHI) is an important indicator used to diagnose the severity of SAHS disorders. The calculation of the AHI is based on the accurate identification of various types of sleep respiratory events.

Effects of cranberry powder on the diversity of microbial communities and quality characteristics of fermented sausage.

Fermented sausage is popular with many consumers because of its distinctive flavor, but the safety of it has attracted widespread attention. At present, nitrite is widely used in fermented meat products because of its ideal color and bacteriostatic effect, but nitrite can be transformed into nitrosamines, which cause strong carcinogenic effects. Therefore, it is urgent to actively explore safe and efficient nitrite substitutes.

Lactobacillus improves meat quality in Sunit sheep by affecting mitochondrial biogenesis through the AMPK pathway.

Sunit sheep are famous for their high meat quality, but the meat quality of them has declined due to the change in feeding methods. Lactobacillus has a variety of probiotic effects and is widely used in animal diets to optimize meat quality. This study aimed to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation with different levels of Lactobacillus on meat quality.

Study on the effect of koumiss on reactivation of infection.

is an obligate intracellular parasite that infects nucleated cells of all warm-blooded animals, and most patients have latent infections. The latent infection will be reactivated in the immunocompromised or immunocompromised individuals, which will lead to severe toxoplasmosis. At present, less research has been focused on the reactivation of infection.

Study on the antagonistic effects of koumiss on infection in mice.

is an important food-borne zoonotic parasite, and approximately one-third of people worldwide are positive for antibodies. To date, there are no specific drugs or vaccines against . Therefore, developing a new safe and effective method has become a new trend in treating toxoplasmosis.

Effect of collagen casing on the quality characteristics of fermented sausage.

Objective: Fermented sausage is popular all over the world for its rich nutrition and unique flavor. Sausage casing is one of the key factors affecting the quality of fermented sausage. However, there is little information involved in this field.

Study on the effect of koumiss on the intestinal microbiota of mice infected with Toxoplasma gondii.

Toxoplasma gondii is a worldwide food-borne parasite that can infect almost all warm-blooded animals, including humans. To date, there are no effective drugs to prevent or eradicate T. gondii infection.

Skeleton-Based Abnormal Behavior Detection Using Secure Partitioned Convolutional Neural Network Model.

Theabnormal behavior detection is the vital for evaluation of daily-life health status of the patient with cognitive impairment. Previous studies about abnormal behavior detection indicate that convolution neural network (CNN)-based computer vision owns the high robustness and accuracy for detection. However, executing CNN model on the cloud possible incurs a privacy disclosure problem during data transmission, and the high computation overhead makes difficult to execute the model on edge-end IoT devices with a well real-time performance.

An Investigation of the Relationship between and Rabbit Diarrhoea.

is usually recognised as an inhabitant of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract in rabbits. However, large numbers of are often detected in the faeces of diarrhoeic rabbits. The relationship of with rabbit diarrhoea needs to be clearly identified.

Exogenous nitric oxide stimulates early egress of Eimeria tenella sporozoites from primary chicken kidney cells in vitro.

Egress plays a vital role in the life cycle of apicomplexan parasites including Eimeria tenella, which has been attracting attention from various research groups. Many recent studies have focused on early egress induced by immune molecules to develop a new method of apicomplexan parasite elimination. In this study, we investigated whether nitric oxide (NO), an immune molecule produced by different types of cells in response to cytokine stimulation, could induce early egress of eimerian sporozoites in vitro.

Seroprevalence of Toxoplasma gondii infection in sheep in Inner Mongolia Province, China.

Toxoplasma gondii is an important zoonotic parasite that can infect almost all warm-blooded animals, including humans, and infection may result in many adverse effects on animal husbandry production. Animal husbandry in Inner Mongolia is well developed, but data on T. gondii infection in sheep are lacking.

A Method of FPGA-Based Extraction of High-Precision Time-Difference Information and Implementation of Its Hardware Circuit.

bstract: The positioning technology to find shallow underground vibration sources based on a wireless sensor network is receiving great interest in the field of underground position measurements. The slow peaking and strong multi-waveform aliasing typical of the underground vibration signal result in a low extraction accuracy of the time difference and a poor source-positioning accuracy. At the same time, the transmission of large amounts of sensor data and the host computer's slow data processing speed make locating a source a slow process.

Calcium-dependent microneme protein discharge and in vitro egress of Eimeria tenella sporozoites.

Egress is a vital step in the endogenous development of apicomplexan parasites, as it assures the parasites exit from consumed host cells and entry into fresh ones. However, little information has previously been reported on this step of Eimeria spp. In this study, we investigated in vitro egress of Eimeria tenella sporozoites triggered by acetaldehyde.

In vitro observation of the stage conversion of transgenic Toxoplasma gondii RH strain expressing dual fluorescent proteins.

Toxoplasma gondii converts from tachyzoites to bradyzoites after acute infection and thus survives the attack of the host immune responses. In this study, we observed the conversion of tachyzoites to bradyzoites in cell cultures using a transgenic T. gondii RH strain.

Nitric oxide stimulates early egress of Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites from Human foreskin fibroblast cells.

Background: Egress is a vital step in the life cycle of Toxoplasma gondii which attracts attentions of many groups. Previous studies have shown that exogenous nitric oxide (NO) stimulates the early egress of T. gondii from infected peritoneal macrophages, a kind of immune cells.

Ethanol and isopropanol trigger rapid egress of intracellular Eimeria tenella sporozoites.

Egress from host cells is a vital step of the intracellular life cycle of apicomplexan parasites such as Toxoplasma gondii. This phenomenon has attracted attentions from many research groups. Previous studies have shown that ethanol could stimulate the release of microneme proteins by elevating intracellular Ca(2+) concentration of T.

A study on the interaction of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and polystyrene (PS) at the interface in SWCNT-PS nanocomposites using tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy.

Normal Raman and tip-enhanced Raman scattering (TERS) spectra were recorded for single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT)-polystyrene (PS) nanocomposites to investigate the distribution of SWCNTs in the nanocomposites and local interactions at an interface between SWCNTs and PS. The normal Raman spectra do not show an evident point-to-point variation. In contrast, in the TERS spectra, Raman bands of SWCNTs show obvious point-to-point shifts; the shifts depend on the points.
