Efficient control of Japanese encephalitis virus in the central nervous system of infected pigs occurs in the absence of a pronounced inflammatory immune response.
3 Nakayama strain. Clinical signs were assessed daily, and viral spread was followed by RT-qPCR. mRNA expression profiles were determined to study immune responses in the CNS. RESULTS: Besides a delay of ...
Physico-chemical characterisation of the fraction of silver (nano)particles in pristine food additive E174 and in E174-containing confectionery.
dimension, assessed as minimal Feret diameter, of the fraction of (nano)particles determined by quantitative TEM analysis was 11 ± 4 nm and 18 ± 7 nm (overall mean ± standard deviation), for food additives and ...
Chemical and toxciological characterization of e-liquid cigarettes
PhD thesis was therefore to first determine the chemical composition of the liquids used in e-cigarettes (e-liquid) and next to investigate toxicological aspects of flavouring substances present in ...
New QSAR models to predict chromosome damaging potential based on the in vivo micronucleus test
methods to determine the potential of chemicals to induce mutations at the gene level has been developed over the last decades. Conversely, only few such methods are currently available to predict potential ...
