We present a new experimental technique to characterise the crosstalk of a thermopile-based thermal imager, based on bi-directional electrical heating of thermopile elements.The new technique provides a significantly simpler and more reliable method to determine the crosstalk, compared to a more complex experimental setup with a opheliasmuse.com la
Abstract Expanding the genetic toolkit for Leptospira spp.is a crucial step toward advancing our understanding of the biology and virulence of these atypical bacteria.Pathogenic Leptospira are responsible for over 1 million human leptospirosis cases annually and significantly impact domestic animals.Bovine leptospirosis causes substantial financial
Abstract Background Several inflammatory molecules participate in the immune response to malaria.Interleukin (IL)-18 is an inflammatory cytokine activated by NLRP3 inflammasomes.In clinical falciparum malaria, with and without HIV co-infection, data on IL-18 and in particular on its binding protein, IL-18bp, is scarce.Methods Clinical data and bloo
