We used transparent planar oxygen optodes and a luminescence lifetime imaging system to map (at a pixel resolution of <200 ?m) the two-dimensional distribution of O2 within the skeleton of a Porites lobata colony. The O2 ...

We present a new method for quantifying spatio-temporal O-2 distribution and dynamics at biologically active surfaces with a complex surface topography. Magnetized O-2 optode microparticles (similar to 80-100 mu m) containing ...

Toxoplasma gondii is a unique intracellular parasite. It can infect a variety of cells in virtually all warm-blooded animals. It has a worldwide distribution and, overall, around one-third of people are seropositive for ...

Cryptococcosis caused by Cryptococcus gattii is a devastating disease of immunocompetent hosts with an incompletely understood pathogenesis. Utilizing an immunoproteomic approach in a naturally occurring koala model of ...

Global climate change is leading to the rise of ocean temperatures and is triggering mass coral bleaching events on reefs around the world. The expulsion of the symbiotic dinoflagellate algae is believed to occur as a ...

Oxidized protein deposition and accumulation have been implicated in the aetiology of a wide variety of age-related pathologies. Protein oxidation in vivo commonly results in the in situ modification of amino acid side ...

Most models predicting changes to species distributions under future climate scenarios ignore dispersal processes, despite their importance in determining community structure in both terrestrial and aquatic systems ...

Peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs), usually mobilized with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) alone or in combination with chemotherapy, are the preferred source of cells for hemopoietic stem cell transplantation. ...
