Consumption of illegal home-made alcohol in Malawi: A neglected public health threat.
Alcohol (Fayetteville, N.Y.)
Aug 10, 2018
This study assessed the ethanol and methanol contents of homemade spirit (Kachasu) sold in Blantyre, Malawi. The likelihood of ethanol and methanol toxicity, respectively, was determined through Monte Carlo simulations using reported Kachasu intake v...
Enrichment of thermophilic and mesophilic microbial consortia for efficient degradation of corn stalk.
Journal of environmental sciences (China)
Jul 29, 2018
Six different environmental samples were applied to enrich microbial consortia for efficient degradation of corn stalk, under the thermophilic and mesophilic conditions. The consortium obtained from anaerobic digested sludge under thermophilic condit...
Image set for deep learning: field images of maize annotated with disease symptoms.
BMC research notes
Jul 3, 2018
OBJECTIVES: Automated detection and quantification of plant diseases would enable more rapid gains in plant breeding and faster scouting of farmers' fields. However, it is difficult for a simple algorithm to distinguish between the target disease and...
A study on plant root apex morphology as a model for soft robots moving in soil.
PloS one
Jun 6, 2018
Plants use many strategies to move efficiently in soil, such as growth from the tip, tropic movements, and morphological changes. In this paper, we propose a method to translate morphological features of Zea mays roots into a new design of soft robot...
In vitro colonic fermentation of Mexican "taco" from corn-tortilla and black beans in a Simulator of Human Microbial Ecosystem (SHIME®) system.
Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
Jun 2, 2018
A Mexican staple food prepared with corn "tortilla" (Zea mays L.) and common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is named as "taco". It was fermented in an in vitro colonic Simulator of Human Microbial Ecosystem (SHIME®) to evaluate the effect in short cha...
Leaching and sorption of neonicotinoid insecticides and fungicides from seed coatings.
Journal of environmental science and health. Part. B, Pesticides, food contaminants, and agricultural wastes
Dec 29, 2017
Seed coatings are a treatment used on a variety of crops to improve production and offer protection against pests and fungal outbreaks. The leaching of the active ingredients associated with the seed coatings and the sorption to soil was evaluated un...
Highly sensitive colorimetric aptasensor for ochratoxin A detection based on enzyme-encapsulated liposome.
Analytica chimica acta
Nov 27, 2017
A simple, low-cost, and sensitive liposome-based colorimetric aptasensor has been developed to detect ochratoxin A (OTA). Specifically, a dumbbell-shaped probe was designed, including magnetic beads (MBs), double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), and enzyme-enca...
An ultrasensitive electrochemical immunosensor for Cry1Ab based on phage displayed peptides.
Talanta
Nov 22, 2017
The rapid and widespread adoption of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) proteins in genetically modified (GM) crops has raised concerns about the impact of GM crops on environment and food safety. A sensitive and specific method for detecting Bt proteins in...

Automated Identification of Northern Leaf Blight-Infected Maize Plants from Field Imagery Using Deep Learning.
Phytopathology
Aug 24, 2017
Northern leaf blight (NLB) can cause severe yield loss in maize; however, scouting large areas to accurately diagnose the disease is time consuming and difficult. We demonstrate a system capable of automatically identifying NLB lesions in field-acqui...
Supervised Learning for Detection of Duplicates in Genomic Sequence Databases.
PloS one
Aug 4, 2016
MOTIVATION: First identified as an issue in 1996, duplication in biological databases introduces redundancy and even leads to inconsistency when contradictory information appears. The amount of data makes purely manual de-duplication impractical, and...
