MITOCHONDRIAL DAMAGE-ASSOCIATED MOLECULAR PATTERNS IMPACT LYMPHOCYTE FUNCTION AND CORRELATE WITH ORGAN HEALTH DURING NORMOTHERMIC MACHINE PERFUSION
(2024-02-06)
Damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) molecules from mitochondria (mitoDAMPs) are released following tissue injury. Innate immune cells promote inflammation in response to mitoDAMPs, yet how this is controlled and ...
Beyond Manganese Oxidizing Bacteria: Using Metagenomics for an Improved Understanding of Sustained Manganese Oxidation and Removal in Surface Water Biofilters
(2024-02-05)
Manganese has evolved from a contaminant of aesthetic concern due to an improved understanding of the health risks associated with elevated levels of Mn in drinking water and its accumulation within, and subsequent release ...
Unraveling the Unpaid Work Gender Gap: Insights from Ecuador
(2024-02-11)
Ecuadorian women dedicate an average of 38.68 extra weekly hours (5.53 additional hours daily) to unpaid work than men. This study explores the impact of gender, relative income and socio-demographic factors on allocating ...
Climate-Induced Species Range Projections and the Consequences for Ecosystem Functioning in Canada’s Maritime Region Marine Conservation Network
(2024-02-12)
Ensuring the conservation and sustainability of marine ecosystems and the continued provision of ecosystem services are key goals of Canada’s framework for its protected seascape sites. With rapid climate change however, ...
Tracking Arctic/Subarctic Export Production Variability Using Compound-Specific Isotope Analysis of Amino Acids
(2024-02-20)
The Arctic and subarctic seas have been experiencing dramatic reductions in sea ice extent as a result of climate change. Changes in sea ice extent and surface primary production are expected to impact the timing, composition, ...
Thermal stress challenge in broiler chickens and the mitigative effects of phytogenic and multivitamin additives.
(2024-02-21)
As the quest for enhanced production performance in poultry persists, maintenance of a stress-free environment should be paramount. Four experiments were conducted to study the efficacy of various bioactive substances: ...
Latent Impact of Abnormal Visual Experience: Early Abnormal Vision Influences Impact of Subsequent Monocular Deprivation
(2024-02-19)
In vision research, monocular deprivation (MD) achieved through eyelid closure is used as a method to replicate the impact of amblyopia in humans and is commonly employed to explore visual system plasticity. Following a ...
SUBTERRANEAN BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEMS FOR GRID STORAGE: THERMAL MODELING AND EXPERIMENTAL VALIDATION
(2024-03-01)
The deployment of stationary BESS continues to grow as renewable energy systems are integrated into the electricity grid. Research on battery systems covering areas of system optimization, battery management system, grid ...
Office-Based Virtual Surgical Planning for Dental Implant Surgery
(2024-03-04)
The purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy of office-based virtual surgical planning for dental implant surgery using tooth-supported surgical guides. Secondary outcomes included determining risk factors ...
Digital Content Addressable Memory and Time Domain Content Addressable Memory Usage in BCH Decoder
(2024-04-04)
This thesis presents a comprehensive exploration of the application of Content Addressable Memory (CAM) in the context of a BCH decoder. The research investigates both digital and time domain implementations to assess their ...
