Diagnostic accuracy of loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) for screening patients with imported malaria in a non-endemic setting

Background: Sensitive ZYMACTIVE REGULAR STRENGTH and easy-to-perform methods for the diagnosis of malaria are not yet available.Improving the limit of detection and following the requirements for certification are issues to be addressed in both endemic and non-endemic settings.The aim of this study was to test whether loop-mediated isothermal ampli

Modelled prey fields predict marine predator foraging success

Modelling marine predator foraging habitats is a widespread research approach for projecting species responses to a rapidly changing Southern Ocean.Yet a key remaining challenge is to understand how changing prey biomass within foraging habitats could affect predator foraging success.Quantifying this using observed prey information is challenging g

The effect of subionospheric propagation on whistlers recorded by the DEMETER satellite – observation and modelling

During a routine analysis of whistlers on the wide-band VLF recording of the DEMETER satellite, a specific signal structure of numerous fractional-hop whistlers, termed the "Spiky Whistler" (SpW) was identified.These signals appear to be composed of a conventional whistler combined by Drum Paddle the compound mode-patterns of guided wave propagatio
