Abstract:
... Preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with antiretrovirals (ARV) can prevent human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission, but its efficacy is highly dependent on strict patient adherence to daily dosing regimen. Long-acting (LA) ARV formulations or delivery systems that reduce dosing frequency may increase adherence and thus PrEP efficacy. While cabotegravir (CAB) long-acting injectable (CAB LA), an ...

Abstract:
... Methods and survey results for the detection of monochloropropanediol (MCPD) esters and glycidyl esters in infant formula will be reviewed. These process-induced contaminants have been shown to be potentially carcinogenic and/or genotoxic, making their occurrence in foods a potential concern. The presence of MCPD and glycidyl esters in infant formula is of specific concern, due to infants’ low bod ...

Abstract:
... Wind exposure may reduce the snowpack and increase frost damage to lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium Ait.). Farmers in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region (Québec) have therefore installed natural windbreaks to maintain a deep snow cover. We verified the efficiency of 39 windbreaks distributed over two farms. Over two consecutive years, snow depth was measured along transects established p ...

Abstract:
... Recent studies report widespread usage or exposure to a variety of chemicals with structural or functional similarity to bisphenol A (BPA), referred to as BPA analogues or derivatives. These have been detected in foodstuffs, house dust, environmental samples, human urine or blood, and consumer products. Compared to BPA, relatively little is known about potential toxicity of these compounds. This s ...

Abstract:
... Objective: Soybean seed development is negatively impacted by elevated temperatures during seed fill, which can decrease seed quality and economic value. Prior germplasm screens identified an exotic landrace able to maintain ~95% seed germination under stress conditions that reduce germination dramatically (>50%) for typical soybean seeds. Seed transcriptomic analysis was performed for two soybean ...

While analgesia is sometimes provided to calves born to difficult parturition by veterinary surgeons in practice, it is not known if this is actually beneficial. On a commercial dairy farm, we examined the behavioural time budget of 39 Holstein heifer calves ...

These losses occur throughout multiple stages of the food supply chain from production to consumption. Reducing FLW prevents the waste of land, water, energy, and other resources embedded in food and is therefore essentia ...
