Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a potential treatment option for gastrointestinal (GI) diseases.The Brazing Alloy present study aimed to understand the physiological effects of VNS on gastrointestinal (GI) function, which is crucial for developing more effective adaptive closed-loop VNS therapies for GI diseases.Electrogastrography (EGG), which me
In the United States and Canada, there has been an increase in the demand for local specialty cut flowers and a corresponding increase in production.To assess the needs of the industry, we electronically surveyed 1098 cut flower producers and handlers in the United States and Canada regarding their current cut flower production and postharvest prob
Aphanomyces cochlioides and Rhizoctonia solani are two of the main soil phytopathogens of sugar beet, which lead to substantial losses in yield and quality.Since disease control capabilities are complex and pathogen monitoring is important for predicting risks, it is of great importance in rural production to create available methods for preliminar
Advances in microfabrication technologies and biomaterials have enabled a growing class of electronic devices that can stimulate and record bioelectronic signals.Many of these devices have been developed for humans Body or vertebrate animals, where miniaturization allows for implantation within the body.There are, however, another class of bioelect
The ever-increasing global threat of common infections developing resistance to current therapeutics is rapidly accelerating the onset of a primitive post-antibiotic era in medicine.The prevention of further antimicrobial resistance development is unlikely due to the continued misuse of antibiotics, augmented by the lack of discovery of novel antib
