Diversity of MHC class II DRB alleles in the Northern chamois genus Rupicapra

Abstract Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes are commonly used markers for monitoring adaptive genetic and evolutionary potential of species. In this study, we investigated genetic variation of the MHC class II DRB locus in the chamois genus Rupicapra by using next-generation sequencing. Sequencing of 102 samples led to the identification of 25 alleles, 11 of which are novel. The high ratio of the relative rates of nonsynonymous to synonymous mutations (dN/dS) suggests a...

Assessment of the Erosion and Outflow Intensity in the Rif Region under Different Land Use and Land Cover Scenarios

The port of Tangier Med is essential due to its strategic location, as it is an important trading center linking Europe, North America, and Africa. However, the increased rates of downstream sediment transportation put pressure on the sustainable future of the port. Thus, assessing the existing erosion rates and future improvement scenarios is imperative for planning sustainable management at the catchment level. We utilize the Erosion Potential Model (EPM) combined with the Intensity of Erosion...

Automatic visual inspection of mechanical assemblies via 3Dpoint cloud classification with deep neural networks

Abstract In this work, we are focused on conformity control of complex aeronautical mechanical assemblies,typically an aircraft engine, at the end or in the middle of the assembly process. A 3D scannercarried by a robot arm provides acquisitions of 3D point clouds which are further processed by deepclassification neural networks. The Computer-Aided Design (CAD) model of the inspected mechanicalassembly is available, and the proposed approach relies on it. The models are trained on syntheticdata,...

Multiple liquid‐liquid extraction of dissolved compounds in immortelle hydrosol with four different solvents

AbstractImmortelle, a revered Mediterranean medicinal plant, is celebrated for its potent essential oil renowned in the cosmetic industry for its skin‐enhancing properties. Yet, immortelle hydrosol, an often‐overlooked byproduct, holds promise in cosmetics due to its compatibility with polar active ingredients. This study investigates the chemical composition of immortelle hydrosol by employing liquid‐liquid extraction (LLE) to transfer volatile organic components into nonpolar solvents. Four solvents...

Game-based Learning and its Application to Foreign Language Learning in Montenegro

This paper deals with some practical aspects of game-based learning (GBL) in terms of foreign language acquisition. The main premise of this paper is that game-based learning is inherently more suitable for language learning than a traditional classroom, since it is based on the concept of playfulness, which is an integral part of the personalities of virtually all learners and especially young learners. Therefore game-based learning can be used to remove the linearity and negative predictability...

The Association between Coagulation and Atrial Fibrillation

The existing literature highlights the presence of numerous coagulation factors and markers. Elevated levels of coagulation factors are associated with both existing and newly diagnosed cases of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, this article summarizes the role of coagulation in the pathogenesis of AF, which includes fibrinogen and fibrin, prothrombin, thrombomodulin, soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor, von Willebrand factor, P-selectin, D-dimer, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1,...

A domain-specific language for managing ETL processes

Maintenance of Data Warehouse (DW) systems is a critical task because any downtime or data loss can have significant consequences on business applications. Existing DW maintenance solutions mostly rely on concrete technologies and tools that are dependent on: the platform on which the DW system was created; the specific data extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL) tool; and the database language the DW uses. Different languages for different versions of DW systems make organizing DW processes...

Re-Examining the Association Between Parental Monitoring, Parental Rearing Behaviors, and Family Risk Factors in Influencing Juvenile Delinquency Among Boys and Girls

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between parenting practices, parental misbehavior, sociodemographic factors, and juvenile delinquency behavior. The sample consisted of 178 adolescents, aged between 14 and 18 years. Self-reported questionnaires were used to collect data, and multiple regression analysis was conducted to analyze the results. The findings revealed significant gender differences in the predictors of delinquent behavior. The predictors of delinquent behavior for boys...
