Abstract: Background: In Kenya, typhoid fever and invasive non-typhoidal salmonellosis present a huge burden of disease, especially in poor-resource settings where clean water supply and sanitation conditions are inadequate. The...

United States agricultural policy has been heavily production-centered for centuries, using racial discrimination and environmental degradation as a means to achieve maximum profit while reaping devastating social and ecological...
Expression of the ten genes on the small filamentous phage f1 genome must be closely regulated during the infection cycle, since this nonlytic coliphage lives in delicate balance with its host. The sequence and context...
We conducted a study at the Ursinus College Organic Farm on the nitrogen dynamics of soil under two commonly used management techniques. Our data can be used to refine fertility recommendations to accommodate differences in...
The chapter focused on assessing the nature of voluntary sustainability standards (VSSs) that affect South Africa's producers of horticultural produce (fruits in particular) destined for markets within Europe and Africa. Eight...
Characterizing the atmospheres of extrasolar planets is the new frontier in exoplanetary science. The last two decades of exoplanet discoveries have revealed that exoplanets are very common and extremely diverse in their orbital...
Both the abiotic environment and the composition of animal and plant communities change with elevation. For mutualistic species, these changes are expected to result in altered partner availability, and shifts in...
Synthetic biology is the repurposing of biological systems for novel objectives and applications. Through the co-ordinated and balanced expression of genes, both native and those introduced from other organisms, resources within...
The history of the Shields families of North and South Carolina, beginning with William Bryant Shields Sr. and Moses Shields respectively, offer dichotomous responses to American racial hierarchies over the decades. Generations...

Background: Air pollution is a major environmental risk factor for cardiorespiratory disease. Exposures to household air pollution from cooking and other activities, are particularly high in Southern Africa. Following an...
We observe clear evidence of adiabatic passage between photon populations via a four-wave mixing process, implemented through a dispersion sweep arranged by a core diameter taper of an optical fiber. Photonic rapid adiabatic...
At present, internet celebrity marketing has become a driving force for the growth of mobile e-commerce; however, it has also become more apparent that the credibility and authenticity of the internet celebrity is directly...
Breast cancer has a devastating effect on women. Different strategies of breast cancer classification exist with minimal work done on the prediction of the occurrence of the disease in potential carriers. In this study, a breast...
