Typology of cyanoprokaryotes habitats in Arctic ecosystems based on the analysis of the Svalbard archipelago flora by Davydov D.A.

“…Differences in the frequency, amplitude, and regularity of habitat moisture levels lead to the differentiation of cyanoprokaryotes species composition. In the Svalbard Archipelago, four particular habitats support greater diversity and abundance of cyanoprokaryotes: 1) wet walls and rocks, 2) bare soils and biocrust communities, 3) warm, slow-flowing streams, and 4) specific over-moistened habitats – seepages.…”

Effect of Rifaximin and a Multi-Strain Probiotic on the Intestinal Microbiome and Cardiovascular Risk Indicators in Patients with Coronary Heart Disease by E. A. Kashukh, E. A. Poluektova, A. V. Kudryavtseva, G. S. Krasnov, V. I. Kazey, P. D. Sobolev, P. V. Gremyakova, V. T. Ivashkin

“…The use of the probiotic after a course of treatment with rifaximin did not have a significant effect on the composition of the microflora. In general, the high variability of fecal microbiota between different patients (significantly superior to intergroup differences) does not allow us to draw unambiguous conclusions.Conclusions. …”

The Importance of Microbiological Monitoring in the Modern System of Preventing Healthcare-Associated Infections by E. V. Shatalova, O. V. Parakhina, A. I. Krasnoukhov

“…There is a general tendency to increase antibiotic resistance to traditional drugs and significant variability to modern antibiotics, which under modern conditions clearly defines two trends - frequent changes in the species composition of associates and the emergence of the problem of drug resistance. …”

Regression Models for Predicting Physicochemical Properties of Biochar by Chiaw Hui Chiew, Li Yee Lim, Pei Ying Ong, Chunjie Li, Yee Van Fan

“…However, properties like CEC and Specific Surface Area (SSA) presented challenges due to inconsistencies between high R² and higher Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) values, indicating underlying variability. Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) biochar was the most challenging to predict due to its heterogeneous composition. …”

A theoretical assessment of the on-site monitoring of hydrogen-enriched natural gas by its thermodynamic properties by Jorge M. Monsalve

“…By performing a Monte-Carlo simulation with known concentrations of natural gas proceeding from different European sources, we conclude that the combined measurement of thermal conductivity together with either speed of sound or density can yield a good estimation of both variables of interest (hydrogen concentration and heating value), even under variability in the composition of natural gas.…”

Predicting physiologically-relevant oxygen concentrations in precision-cut liver slices using mathematical modelling. by S J Chidlow, L E Randle, R A Kelly

“…Despite being more physiologically relevant compared to in vitro models, precision cut liver slices are limited by the availability of healthy human tissue and experimental variability. Internal oxygen concentration and media composition govern the longevity and viability of the slices during the culture period and as such, a variety of approaches have been taken to maximise the appropriateness of the internal oxygen concentrations across the slice. …”
