The ecology of the lucerne flea, Sminthurus viridis, in the South-Auckland/Waikato area
… into the seasonality of the lucerne flea (LF) has been done in New Zealand. It was therefore decided to study the bionomics and population dynamics of LF, and aspects related to the damage, caused by LF. The study showed that the life cycle of LF consisted of three nymphal instars, one …

Associations of the Limb Fat to Trunk Fat Ratio With Markers of Cardiometabolic Risk in Elderly Men and Women
… that the ratio of limb fat to trunk fat (LF/TF) is associated with markers of cardiometabolic risk in elderly men and women. However, it is unknown if LF/TF is associated with cardiometabolic risk beyond that explained by LF and TF independently. Objective: To determine if LF/TF is …

Using predictive analytics to address risk in complex supply chains
Li & Fung (LF) is a global supply chain manager for consumer product brands and retailers. Worldwide, LF contracts with over 13,000 factories. Frequently, these factories experience incidents, which are internally defined as "unplanned / unwanted events which have the potential to escalate or have …

Phenotypic Characterization of Segmental Human Trabecular Meshwork Cells
… (TM) with regions of high-flow (HF) or low-flow (LF) that vary in molecular signature, biomechanics, and response to pressure in both normal and glaucoma eyes. We sought to investigate whether cells in these regions (1) deposit distinct extracellular matrices (ECM); (2a) exhibit phenotypes that …

Effect of bovine lactoferrin on T lymphocyte cell phenotype and function and the response to vaccination in the neonatal piglet
… for infant immune maturation. Lactoferrin (Lf), an iron binding glycoprotein found in breastmilk has been shown to have numerous physiological and immune properties that are nutritionally advantageous for infants. The goal of this thesis research was to discover how early nutrition …

Characterization of an Alternatively Spliced Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Variant During Myelin Synthesis
… of the long-form PDGF-A chain variant (LF-PDGF-A) were detected by RT-PCR in cocultures. Its expression level increased during active myelin synthesis in contrast to those of the short form variant (SF-PDGF-A). LF-PDGF-A mRNA transcripts were localized to the neuronal cell bodies in …

Effects of sleep deprivation on autonomic nervous system
… nervous system (ANS). The low frequency (LF) area and the high frequency (HF) area were calculated using the Power Spectrum Analysis of HRV and BPV. The LF area of HRV is associated with the sympathetic nervous system activity plus the parasympathetic nervous system activity but the HF …

A Code Division Multiple Access Communication System for the Low Frequency Band
… communication system for the low frequency (LF) channel is proposed, discussed and analyzed. This LF/CDMA scheme is similar to classical CDMA schemes in that K users share a channel by phase modulating their transmissions with signature sequences. Our LF/CDMA scheme is different in that each …

Development of Rapid Lateral-flow Immunochromatographic Test for the Diagnosis of Chikungunya Virus Infection
… a lateral-flow immunochromatographic test (LF-ICT) ideal for applications as rapid point-of-care test for the diagnosis of acute CHIK virus infection. METHODS: Three CHIK virus structural recombinant proteins, capsid protein and, E1 and E2 envelope glycoproteins, were produced in the …

Application of Ultrafiltered Sweet Buttermilk and Sweet Buttermilk Powder in the Manufacture of Nonfat and Lowfat Yogurts
… to 6.39% protein and 13.4% TS in lowfat yogurt (LF) mix. Fat was adjusted with 40% fat cream to 0.34% in NF and 1.36% in LF. Mixes were homogenized at 20 MPa, pasteurized at 82.2°C for 30 min, inoculated with a mixed yogurt culture, incubated at 43°C for 4.5 hand cooled to 4°C. Titratable acidity …

β-lactoglobulin and lactoferrin complex coacervates: Characterization and putative applications as encapsulation device
… between β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) and lactoferrin (LF) in the absence and presence of small ligands. The conditions of optimal β-LG - LF coacervation were found at pH range 5.4-6 with a molar excess of β-LG. Remarkably, LF showed selective coacervation with β-LG A, the slightly more negative …

Lactoferrin in neonatal development: effects on intestinal structure and intestinal function and immune response in a piglet model of systemic Staphylococcus aureus infection
… et al 2013; Jacobi and Odle, 2012). Lactoferrin (Lf), a bioactive protein found in high concentrations in human milk, when fed orally, has bacteriostatic activity against S. aureus in vivo (Bhimani et al 1999) and has been proven efficacious against neonatal septicemia when supplemented in infant …
