TL;DR: Marine yeast diet was found to support maximum immunostimulation evidenced by enhanced shrimp immunity and showed that marine yeasts D. hansenii and C. tropicalis are effective immunostIMulants in F. indicus and they perform better than the baker's yeast, S. cerevisiae.

TL;DR: In this article, a single step strategy capable of improving specific capacity, power capability and faradic yield of a Li/CFx battery system is developed, using fluorinated graphene with a very low fluorine content (x = 0.22).
Abstract: A single step strategy capable of improving specific capacity, power capability and faradic yield of a Li/CFx battery system is developed. The excellent electrochemical performance achieved here using fluorinated graphene with a very low fluorine content (x = 0.22) could lead to the development of highly efficient primary battery systems with low cost and minimum environmental impact.

TL;DR: This study confirmed the burden of HCV infection in French HIV-infected patients and described for the first time in France the epidemiological characteristics of HIV-HBV co-infection, and stresses the severity of liver disease related to HCV in HIV- infected population.
Abstract: Our objective was to estimate the prevalence of HCV and HBV co-infection among HIV-infected adults in France and describe the epidemiological characteristics of co-infected patients and their clinical management. A one-day national cross-sectional survey was conducted in 2004. A random and proportional probability sample design was used, based on the number of AIDS cases reported since 1999 by hospital wards. Weighted estimations were computed. HIV-infected adults (out/in-patients) were included after consent. Data were collected on demographic criteria, HIV, HCV and HBV infections, as well as on antiviral therapies. Overall, 1849 HIV-infected patients were included. The prevalence of anti-HCV or HCV RNA positivity (HCV co-infection) was 24.3% [95% confidence interval (CI): 21.3-27.6] and varied from 3.1% in men who had sex with men to 92.8% in injecting drug users (IDUs). The prevalence of positive HCV RNA was 17.0% [95% CI:14.7-19.4]. The prevalence of HBs antigen (Ag) or HBV DNA positivity was 7.0% [95% CI: 5.9-8.1] and varied with the continent of birth from 2.1% in Northern Africa to 10.8% in sub-Saharan Africa. The prevalence of HIV-HCV-HBV co-infection was 1.6% [95% CI: 1.0-2.4], mostly IDUs (83.3%). A severe liver disease (cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma) was diagnosed in 24.7% of the positive HCV RNA patients. This study confirmed the burden of HCV infection in French HIV-infected patients and described for the first time in France the epidemiological characteristics of HIV-HBV co-infection. Furthermore, it stresses the severity of liver disease related to HCV in HIV-infected population.

TL;DR: In this article, the dielectric properties of microwave dielectrics have been measured in the frequency range 4-6 GHz using resonance methods, and the authors have shown that the quality factor and the resonant frequency depend on the tolerance factor (t ), ionic radius (r), and lattice parameter (a p ).
Abstract: Microwave dielectric resonators (DRs) based on Ba(B 1/2 ′Nb 1/2 )O 3 [B′=La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Y, Yb, and In] complex perovskites have been prepared by conventional solid state ceramic route. The dielectric properties (relative permittivity, e r ; quality factor, Q ; and resonant frequency, τ f ) of the ceramics have been measured in the frequency range 4–6 GHz using resonance methods. The resonators have relatively high dielectric constant in the range 36–45, high quality factor and small temperature variation of resonant frequency. The dielectric properties are found to depend on the tolerance factor ( t ), ionic radius ( r ), and lattice parameter ( a p ).
