Epidemiological and animal studies have shown that maternal diet can influence metabolism in adult offspring. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these changes remain poorly understood.… (More)
Recent sequencing of Plasmodium vivax field isolates and monkey-adapted strains enabled characterization of SNPs throughout the genome. These analyses relied on mapping short reads onto the P. vivax… (More)
Analysis of environmental DNA (eDNA) enables the detection of species of interest from water and soil samples, typically using species-specific PCR. Here, we describe a method to characterize the… (More)
We report a novel oxyhydride SrCrO2H directly synthesized by a high-pressure high-temperature method. Powder neutron and synchrotron X-ray diffraction revealed that this compound adopts the ideal… (More)
The oxyhydride solid solutions (Ca,Sr)TiO(3-x)H(x) and (Sr,Ba)TiO(3-x)H(x) have been prepared by reducing the corresponding ATiO(3) oxides with calcium hydride. Under the reaction conditions… (More)
Deep sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene provides a comprehensive view of bacterial communities in a particular environment and has expanded our ability to study the impact of the microflora on human… (More)
Methods for the quantification of statistically valid measures of the uncertainties associated with X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) data obtained from dilute solutions using fluorescence… (More)
Multiferroic materials have been the subject of intense study, but it remains a great challenge to synthesize those presenting both magnetic and ferroelectric polarizations at room temperature. In… (More)
We present WFPC2 images of the core of the cooling ow cD galaxy in Abell 1795. An irregular, asymmetric dust lane extends 7 h 1 75 kpc in projection to the north-northwest. The dust shares the… (More)
