The purpose of this study was to formulate a mathematical expression for the temperature dependence of adhesive strength using various parameters. Adhesive structures are typically exposed to a broad temperature range, spanning from low to high temperatures; therefore, understanding how their strength depends on temperature is crucial. The strength was measured through tensile, fatigue, and creep tests at temperatures ranging from -60 °C to 135 °C. The properties of these test types were thoroughly investigated by analyzing the strength of the test results from a thermal activity perspective. The results demonstrate that there is a clear relationship between temperature and strength. The intensity decreased with temperature according to the exponential function and could be accurately represented using the parameters of thermal activity. The temperature at which the strength begins to decrease in the fatigue test was higher than in the static tests. Consequently, we were able to accurately express the relationship between the temperature and intensity using certain parameters. Few studies successfully developed a precise nonlinear relationship between temperature and intensity using approximate expressions.

Plant-microbe associations are ubiquitous, but parsing contributions of dispersal, host filtering, competition and temperature on microbial community composition is challenging. Floral nectar-inhabiting microbes, which can influence flowering plant health and pollination, offer a tractable system to disentangle community assembly processes. We inoculated a synthetic community of yeasts and bacteria into nectars of 31 plant species while excluding pollinators.

Pipe-stuck, filtrate volume, and formation damage during the drilling operation are directly related to the poor performance of drilling fluids. Hence, considerable attention is required to improve the filtration and rheological properties of drilling fluids and achieve industrial and environmental qualification standards. This study experimentally investigates the impact of Pectin and Astragalus gum biopolymers on the filtration and rheological properties of the water-based drilling fluid (WBDF).

The external ear canal, characterized by species-specific structural and physiological differences, maintains a hostile environment that prevents microbial overgrowth and foreign body entry, supported by factors such as temperature, pH, humidity, and cerumen with antimicrobial properties. This review combines several studies on the healthy ear canal's structure and physiology with a critical approach to the potential existence of an ear microbiome. We use a comparative multi-species approach to explore how allergic conditions alter the ear canal microenvironment and cerumen in different mammalian species, promoting pathogen colonization.

Introduction: The global climatic changes pose a substantial threat to the well-being and productivity of both humans and animals.
Methods: This study examined the impact of climate changes during different seasons over a 3-year monitoring period (2021-2023) on various blood parameters including, white blood cells (WBC), neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes, hematocrit (HCT), hemoglobin (HGB), red blood cells (RBC), platelets (PLT), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH). The study focused on 25 Thoroughbred mares located in Kastamonu-Türkiye.
