Convalescent human plasma candidate reference materials protect against Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) challenge in an A129 mouse model

Crimean-Congo Haemorrhagic Fever Virus (CCHFV) is spread by infected ticks or direct contact with blood, tissues and fluids from infected patients or livestock. Infection with CCHFV causes severe haemorrhagic fever in humans which is fatal in up to 83 % of ...

A Novel 3D-Printed/Porous Conduit with Tunable Properties to Enhance Nerve Regeneration Over the Limiting Gap Length

Silvestro Micera, Francesco Iberite

Engineered grafts constitute an alternative to autologous transplant for repairing severe peripheral nerve injuries. However, current clinically available solutions have substantial limitations and are not suited for the repair of long nerve defects. A nov ...

Home, Spatial Familiarity And Routines In Mobility Behaviours

Marc-Edouard Baptiste Grégoire Schultheiss

This research explores the unreasoned influences of locational behaviour – i.e. locational habits – in Activity- Travel-Behaviour (ATB). In particular, the interrelations between Activity Space characteristics and mobility patterns. In a wider research eff ...

Imidacloprid induces adverse effects on fish early life stages that are more severe in Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) than in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Kristin Schirmer, Juliane Hollender

Neonicotinoids are widely used insecticides that have frequently been found in freshwater with concentrations ranging from ng to mu g/L. It is known that these compounds impact non-target invertebrates, such as bees and gammaridae, in terms of toxicity and ...

Soft Robot for Gait Rehabilitation of Spinalized Rodents

Silvestro Micera, Grégoire Courtine, Jamie Paik, Yi Sun, Joachim von Zitzewitz, Yun Seong Song, Rubia van den Brand

Soft actuators made of highly elastic polymers allow novel robotic system designs, yet application-specific soft robotic systems are rarely reported. Taking notice of the characteristics of soft pneumatic actuators (SPAs) such as high customizability and l ...

Methods for Functional Assessment After C7 Spinal Cord Hemisection in the Rhesus Monkey

Grégoire Courtine

Background. Reliable outcome measures are essential for preclinical modeling of spinal cord injury (SCI) in primates. Measures need to be sensitive to both increases and decreases in function in order to demonstrate potential positive or negative effects o ...

Hybrid Small Animal Imaging System Combining Magnetic Resonance Imaging with Fluorescence Tomography Using Single Photon Avalanche Diode Detectors

Edoardo Charbon, Lucio Carrara, Markus Rudin, Christof Baltes

The high sensitivity of fluorescence imaging enables the detection of molecular processes in living organisms. However, diffuse light propagation in tissue prevents accurate recovery of tomographic information on fluorophore distribution for structures emb ...
