Pigs are important reservoirs of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC).The entrance of these strains into the food chain here implies a risk to consumers because of the severity of hemolytic uremic syndrome.This study reports the prevalence and characterization of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) throughout the pork production
Adaptor protein (AP) complexes sort cargo into vesicles for transport from one membrane compartment of the cell to another.Four distinct AP complexes have been identified, which are present in most eukaryotes.We report the existence of a fifth AP complex, AP-5.Tagged AP-5 localises to a late endosomal compartment in HeLa cells.AP-5 does not associa
This paper presents an experimental investigation using graphene nanoplatelets (GnPs) to enhance the bending performance of E-glass fiber/epoxy composites.Each specimen was prepared with two layers of E-glass chopped strand mat via the hand lay-up technique and using various contents of GnPs in the matrix better waters xl7000 (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 an
