ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Powder Exfoliator The social distancing measures during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic resulted in mental suffering among adolescents, leading to risky consumption of psychoactive substances such as tobacco.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the factors associated with tobacco use among adolescents during the COVID-19 soci
Honey bee (Apis mellifera) adult workers change behaviors and nutrition according to age progression.Young workers, such as nurses, perform in-hive tasks and consume protein-rich pollen, while older workers (foragers) leave the colony to search for food, and consume carbohydrate-rich nectar.These environmentally stimulated events involve transcript
In this study, we examine how lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) youth, who tend to experience greater feelings of isolation and discrimination than heterosexual youth, find and become integrated into supportive activities and resources.As part of a larger study on supportive lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer youth
Abstract Acoustophoretic microfluidic devices have been developed for accurate, label-free, contactless, and non-invasive manipulation of bioparticles in different biofluids.However, their widespread application is limited due to the need for the use of high quality microchannels made of materials with high specific acoustic impedances relative to
On-chip sensors, built using reconfigurable logic resources in field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), have been shown to sense variations in signalpropagation delay, supply voltage and power consumption.These sensors have been successfully used to deploy security attacks called Remote Power Analysis (RPA) Attacks on FPGAs.The sensors proposed thus
