Melioidosis is an emerging infection in Brazil and neighbouring South American countries.The wide range of clinical presentations include severe community-acquired pneumonia, septicaemia, central nervous system infection and less severe soft tissue infection.Diagnosis depends heavily on the clinical microbiology laboratory for culture.Burkholderia
Torpor is a hypothermic, hypoactive, hypometabolic state entered into by a wide range of animals in response to environmental challenge.This review summarises the current understanding of torpor.We start by describing the characteristics of Swivel Chair the wide-ranging physiological adaptations associated with torpor.Next follows a discussion of t
The system under study in this work is a self-igniting pile of solid material.To predict and understand the effect of steep changes of the state variables on such systems, a reaction-diffusion model is employed.These systems can exhibit complex oscillatory behaviour, and changes in ambient conditions over time may strongly impact the inherent oscil
Both religiosity and spiritual activities could improve security perceptions by reducing crime rates in Indonesia.However, this did not apply to minorities because of the possibility of religious discrimination.This study intended to determine the influence of religiosity and spiritual activities on the security perceptions of religious adherents i
Targeted genome editing using CRISPR-Cas9 has been widely adopted as a genetic engineering tool in various biological systems.This editing technology has been in the limelight due to its simplicity and versatility compared to other previously known genome editing platforms.Several modifications of this editing system have been established for adopt
