DYNAMICS OF THE FERMENTATION PRODUCTS, RESIDUAL NON-STRUCTURAL CARBOHYDRATES, AND BACTERIAL COMMUNITIES OF WILTED AND NON-WILTED ALFALFA SILAGE WITH AND WITHOUT LACTOBACILLUS PLANTARUM INOCULATION

Dynamics of the Fermentation Products, Residual Non-structural Carbohydrates, and Bacterial Communities of Wilted and Non-wilted Alfalfa Silage With and Without Lactobacillus plantarum Inoculation

The aim of this study was to investigate effects of wilting and Lactobacillus plantarum inoculation on the dynamics of the fermentation products, residual non-structural carbohydrates, and bacterial communities in alfalfa silage.Fresh and wilted alfalfa were ensiled with and without L.plantarum for 10, 30, 60, and 90 days.A high-throughput sequenci

Deep learning enables fast, gentle STED microscopy

Abstract STED microscopy is widely used to image 7" Vinyl subcellular structures with super-resolution.Here, we report that restoring STED images with deep learning can mitigate photobleaching and photodamage by reducing the pixel dwell time by one or two orders of magnitude.Our method allows for efficient and robust restoration of noisy 2D and 3D

Benchmarking the Cost per Person of Mass Treatment for Selected Neglected Tropical Diseases: An Approach Based on Literature Review and Meta-regression with Web-Based Software Application.

Advocacy around mass treatment for the elimination of selected Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) has typically put the cost per person treated at less than US$ 0.50.Whilst useful for advocacy, the focus on a single number misrepresents the complexity of delivering "free" donated medicines to about a Dog Treats billion people across the world.We pe
