Physiological-based synthesis using low order lumped-mass models of phonation have been shown to mimic and predict complex physical phenomena observed in normal and pathological speech production, and have received significant ...

Chagas disease affects millions of people in Latin America. The control of this vector-borne disease focuses on halting transmission by reducing or eliminating insect vector populations. Most transmission of Trypanosoma ...

Pichia membranaefaciens, Cryptococcus laurentii, Rhodotorula glutinis and Candida krusei were isolated from contaminated sites. A significant variability in cell forms and in assimilation profiles was observed in the C. ...

Brain activity contains three fundamental aspects: (a) The physiological aspect, covering all kinds of processes that involve matter and/or energy; (b) the mental unconscious aspect, consisting of dynamical patterns (i.e., ...

1. 1. Liver microsomes from alloxan diabetic rats displayed decreased activity to hydroxylate testosterone only at the 2-α and 6-β positions. 2. 2. Diabetic insulin-treated rats showed higher hydroxylase activities than ...
