A NEW SPECIES OF SKIN-FEEDING CAECILIAN AND THE FIRST REPORT OF REPRODUCTIVE MODE IN MICROCAECILIA (AMPHIBIA: GYMNOPHIONA: SIPHONOPIDAE).

A new species of skin-feeding caecilian and the first report of reproductive mode in Microcaecilia (amphibia: Gymnophiona: Siphonopidae).

A new species of siphonopid caecilian, Microcaecilia dermatophagasp.nov., is described based on nine specimens from French Guiana.The new species is the first new caecilian to be described from French Guiana for more than 150 years.It differs from all other Microcaecilia in having fewer secondary grandpas best annular grooves and/or in lacking a tr

Numerical Investigation of Active Flow Control on Laminar Forced Convection over a Backward Facing Step Surrounded by Multiple Jets

Laminar, transient forced convection problem over a 2D backward facing step (BFS) at an inlet Reynolds number (Re) of 400 is investigated numerically using OpenFOAM.To increase the Nusselt number (Nu) along the bottom wall, active flow control is applied by zero-net-mass-flux (ZNMF) combinations of suction and injection through three thin slits whi

Allicin suppresses human glioblastoma cell growth by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, and by promoting autophagy

Glioblastoma is the most aggressive cancer that occurs in the brain and spinal cord.In the present study, we investigated the effect of allicin, ice blue graphic tee an organosulfur compound obtained from garlic (Allium sativum), on glioblastoma cell growth.When human glioblastoma DBTRG-05MG cells were incubated with different concentrations of all

Identification by PCR of non-typhoidal Salmonella enterica serovars associated with invasive infections among febrile patients in Mali.

In sub-Saharan Africa, non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) are emerging beetroot birkenstock as a prominent cause of invasive disease (bacteremia and focal infections such as meningitis) in infants and young children.Importantly, including data from Mali, three serovars, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, Salmonella Enteritidis and Salmonella Dubl
