Periostin-like-factor in tissue repair and remodeling
Perisotin-like-factor (PLF) is a member of the Fasciclin family of proteins, which are characterized by the presence of 150 amino acid long conserved Fasciclin domains. Members of this family have been implicated in numerous cellular processes like adhesion, migration, axonal guidance and growth …

ON-FARM APPLICATION OF PLF TECHNOLOGIES TO DETECT EARLY BEHAVIOURAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL INDICATORS OF DISEASE AND WELFARE IN PAIR - HOUSED DAIRY CALVES BEFORE WEANING.
… through the lens of Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) technologies. The aim was to assess whether behavioural and physiological indicators collected by non-invasive sensors could provide insights into welfare status and disease risk, with a particular focus on accelerometer-based monitoring and …

Extending the Herman-Beta transform for probabilistic load flow analysis of radial feeders
… As a result, probabilistic load flow (PLF) approaches based on statistical foundations were proposed to account for the impacts of the uncertainty. For the PLF methods, the efficiency of a specific approach is influenced by two major constraints; the accuracy of the method and the …

A Central Regulatory Locus Controls Tetracycline Regulated Functions on a Bacteroides Tetracycline Resistant Conjugal Chromosomal Element
The genes necessary for regulated Plf activity on the Tc$\sp{\rm r}$ element were localized to an 8 kbp region. This region was known to contain the Tc$\sp{\rm r}$ gene, tetQ, which had already been sequenced. Sequencing of an additional 5 kbp downstream of tetQ has revealed two additional genes. …
