Ebola virus disease (EVD) outbreak re-emergence regulation in East Africa: preparedness and vaccination perspective
(Wolters Kluwer Health, 2023)Sudan ebolavirus (SUDV), Bundibugyo ebolavirus, Taï Forest ebolavirus, and Zaire ebolavirus (EBOV) are the most potentially life-threatening and grievous species reported among the Ebolavirus genus. Previously, the most ... -
Ergosterol and polyphenol contents as rapid indicators of orchardgrass silage safety
(Elsevier Science Ltd., 2023)The ergosterol (ERG) has been proposed as a potential indicator of fungal contamination, along with polyphenol content analysis to predict silage safety. Despite efforts in controlling fungal growth in silage, mycotoxin ... -
Solvent Accessibility Promotes Rotamer Errors during Protein Modeling with Major Side-Chain Prediction Programs
(American Chemical Society, 2023)Side-chain rotamer prediction is one of the most critical late stages in protein 3D structure building. Highly advanced and specialized algorithms (e.g., FASPR, RASP, SCWRL4, and SCWRL4v) optimize this process by use of ... -
Evaluation of semen parameters from Fleckvieh-Simmental bulls and the influence of age and season of collection
(Archiv für Tierzucht, 2023)The aim of this paper was to evaluate semen parameters from Czech Fleckvieh (dual-purpose breed) bulls used in artificial insemination in the Fleckvieh population. The ejaculate was collected from bulls only once a week, ... -
Manure application followed by biochar application increases plant production regardless of soil dehydrogenase activity
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2023)Biochar is obtained by the pyrolysis of biomass, and contains abundant carbon and minerals. Biochar supplementation of soils can greatly improve soil health and quality, but these beneficial effects typically develop slowly ... -
A color-tunable single-benzene fluorophore-based sensor for sensitive detection of palladium in solution and living cells
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2023)Single-benzene fluorophores are bright and the smallest fluorochromes known so far. In single-benzene fluorophores, the fluorescence is mediated by the push/pull effect of substituting groups. Despite a plethora of ... -
Increasing Phosphorus Digestibility in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) Farming Using Phytase and Citric Acid
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2023)The presence of antinutritional substances, such as phytate, in fish feed affects the digestibility and absorption of minerals and nutrients by fish, while reduced availability of phosphorus (P) in wheat-based feeds used ... -
Pre-activated biochar by fertilizers mitigates nutrient leaching and stimulates soil microbial activity
(Springer International Publishing AG, 2023)Background: Previous studies have suggested that the targeted application of biochars in agricultural soils may benefit soil health and crop production. Physico-chemical properties of soils after biochar addition have been ... -
A Comparative Cross-Platform Analysis to Identify Potential Biomarker Genes for Evaluation of Teratozoospermia and Azoospermia
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2022)Male infertility is a global public health concern. Teratozoospermia is a qualitative anomaly of spermatozoa morphology, contributing significantly to male infertility, whereas azoospermia is the complete absence of ... -
Evaluation of yield and alpha acid content in selected hop varieties
(Výzkumný ústav pivovarský a sladařský a.s., 2022)The stability of the agricultural and technological properties of hop varieties over the course of time and under changing climate is essential for both growers and brewers. This study is a typical case of monitoring 12 ... -
Solar Park: Opportunity or Threat for Vegetation and Ecosystem
(Polish Society of Ecological Engineering, 2022)Solar parks are currently considered a new source of energy generation and one of the methods for reducing the usage of fossil fuels. The studies related to the influence of solar parks on vegetation structure are not yet ... -
Epigenetic factors in breast cancer therapy
(Frontiers Media SA, 2022)Epigenetic modifications are inherited differences in cellular phenotypes, such as cell gene expression alterations, that occur during somatic cell divisions (also, in rare circumstances, in germ line transmission), but ... -
Effect of storage and preincubation on hatching egg quality and hatchability in meat type chicken
(Mendelova univerzita v Brně, 2021)The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of hatching eggs storage and their preincubation on eggs quality, hatchability and one-day old chick weight in young meat-type ROSS 308 parent stock, 31 weeks of age. Total ... -
Small industrial towns in Moravia: a comparison of the production and post-productive eras
(Taylor & Francis Ltd., 2023)The paper focuses on the changes to the industrial structure of small Moravian towns as these towns are part of the settlement structure that connects urban and rural systems. Small towns (of up to 15,000 inhabitants) are ... -
Alternative mechanical pre-treatment methods of hot-dip galvanising surface to increase of the organic coatings adhesion
(Mendelova univerzita v Brně, 2021)The content of this contribution is an evaluation of research on various mechanical pre-treatments of inorganic coating, which is part of the so-called duplex system applied to a steel sheet. In order to coating adhesion ... -
Determining the phytotoxicity of rubber granulate from waste tires
(Mendelova univerzita v Brně, 2021)The annually increasing global production of tires ranges around 1 billion and the number of waste tires is growing too. A question comes to the fore how to handle the waste to prevent environmental risks. The most advanced ... -
Determination of optimal insemination time in sheep by assessing cervical mucus arborization
