Svalbard reindeer (Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus) is a non-migratory subspecies of reindeer inhabiting the high-arctic archipelago hookah decor of Svalbard.In contrast to other Rangifer tarandus subspecies, Svalbard reindeer graze exclusively on natural sources of food and have no chance of ingestion of any crops.We report the use of a non-invasi
Summary: Gut motility is regulated by the microbiome via mechanisms that include bile acid Nasal Health metabolism.To localize the effects of microbiome-generated bile acids, we colonized gnotobiotic mice with different synthetic gut bacterial communities that were metabolically phenotyped using a functional in vitro screen.Using two different mark
A novel prototype based on the combination of a multi-junction, high-efficiency photovoltaic EFI (PV) module and a supercapacitor (SC) able to self-power a wireless sensor node (WSN) for outdoor air quality monitoring has been developed and tested.A PV module with about an 8 cm2 active area made of eight GaAs-based triple-junction solar cells with
In microwave-plasma synthesis of few-layer graphene from hydrocarbon precursors, the carbon-to-oxygen and the carbon-to-hydrogen ratios are known to influence the product ratio of graphene to amorphous soot-like particles.While the role of oxygenated hydrocarbons and water as oxygen-supplying species has been studied before, in this paper, we compa
