PLAGUE TRANSMISSION FROM CORPSES AND CARCASSES

Plague Transmission from Corpses and Carcasses

Knowing whether human corpses can transmit plague will inform policies for handling the bodies of those who have died of the disease.We analyzed the literature usafws patch to evaluate risk for transmission of Yersinia pestis, the causative agent of plague, from human corpses and animal carcasses.Because we could not find direct evidence of transmi

Precision Weed Management for Straw-Mulched Maize Field: Advanced Weed Detection and Targeted Spraying Based on Enhanced YOLO v5s

Straw mulching in conservation tillage farmland can effectively promote land utilization and conservation.However, in this farming mode, surface straw suppresses weed growth, affecting weed size and position distribution and obscuring the weeds, which hampers effective weed management in the field.Accurate weed identification and localization, alon

m5C RNA Methylation Regulators Predict Prognosis and Regulate the Immune Microenvironment in Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma

RNA methylation is a novel epigenetic modification that can be used to evaluate tumor prognosis.However, the underlying mechanisms are unclear.This study aimed to investigate the genetic characteristics of 5-methylcytosine (m5C) and N1-methyladenosine (m1A) regulators in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) and the prognostic value and immune-relate

What are the proteolytic enzymes of honey and what they do tell us? A fingerprint analysis by 2-D zymography of unifloral honeys.

Honey is a sweet and healthy food produced by honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) from flower nectars.Using bidimensional zymography, we have detected the, until now unrevealed, proteolytic activities present in row honey samples.The resulting zymograms were specific for each type of the four unifloral honey under study, and enzymes were i teach my kids
