Objective: The purpose of this study was to elucidate the teratogenic effects of dichlorvos on developing chick embryos.Methods: The fertilized Leghorn hen eggs were divided into two groups: the experimental group which was injected with 0.1 ml of 0.5% and 1% dichlorvos in normal saline and the control group which was injected with 0.1 ml of normal
Smart Grids are becoming a reality all over the world.Nowadays, the research efforts for the introduction and deployment of these grids are mainly focused on the development of the field of Smart Metering.This emerging application requires the use of technologies to access the significant number of points of supply (PoS) existing in the grid, cover
We study the topological photonic states in one-dimensional lattices analog to the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model beyond the dipole approximation.The electromagnetic resonances of the lattices supported by near-field interactions between the plasmonic nanoparticles are studied analytically with coupled dipole-quadrupole method.The topological phase tra
The human and bovine bacterial pathogen Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus, GBS) expresses a thick polysaccharide capsule that constitutes a major virulence factor and vaccine target.GBS can be classified into MIRRORS ten distinct serotypes differing in the chemical composition of their capsular polysaccharide.However, non-typeable str
