West Nile virus (WNV), like the dengue virus (DENV) and yellow fever virus (YFV), are major arboviruses belonging to the Flavivirus genus. WNV is emerging or endemic in many countries around the world, affecting humans and other vertebrates. Since 1999, it has been considered to be a major public and veterinary health problem, causing diverse pathologies, ranging from a mild febrile state to severe neurological damage and death. WNV is transmitted in a bird–mosquito–bird cycle, and can occasionally infect humans and horses, both highly susceptible to the virus but considered dead-end hosts. Many studies have investigated the molecular determinants of WNV virulence, mainly with the ultimate objective of guiding vaccine development. Several vaccines are used in horses in different parts of the world, but there are no licensed WNV vaccines for humans, suggesting the need for greater understanding of the molecular determinants of virulence and antigenicity in different hosts. Owing to technical and economic considerations, WNV virulence factors have essentially been studied in rodent models, and the results cannot always be transported to mosquito vectors or to avian hosts. In this review, the known molecular determinants of WNV virulence, according to invertebrate (mosquitoes) or vertebrate hosts (mammalian and avian), are presented and discussed. This overview will highlight the differences and similarities found between WNV hosts and models, to provide a foundation for the prediction and anticipation of WNV re-emergence and its risk of global spread. 相似文献

This experimental study focuses on the creeping flow of a shear thinning yield stress fluid around conical obstacles. The flow has been analyzed in steady state and with adherence conditions. Firstly, the influences of the cone apex angle and of the Oldroyd number, that is the ratio between plastic and viscous effects, on the drag coefficient have been analyzed. Correlations have been proposed to model the evolution of this coefficient as a function of these two parameters. The analysis provides a new alternative for measuring the yield stress. Then, the kinematic fields around the cones have been analyzed. These fields enable to describe the rigid zones and the sheared zone developing around the lateral edge of the cones as a function of the cone apex angle. Moreover, the wall shear stresses estimated from the particle image velocimetry measurements have enabled to quantify the contribution of the lateral drag force in the drag force. © 2014 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 61: 709–717, 2015 相似文献

This experimental study deals with the influence of slip on the non‐inertial flow of a viscoplastic fluid around a flat plate moving at a constant velocity. The bulk and interfacial properties of the fluid have been finely characterized. The drag force has been analyzed with regards to the flow velocity and for two tribological conditions: adherence and slip. This force decreases with the velocity and is reduced in the presence of slip. Kinematic fields have also been measured by Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), to determine the influence of both the velocity and the tribological conditions on the liquid and solid regions of the flow. The results highlight no significant influence of the flow velocity on the thickness of the boundary layer and rigid zones. The wall shear stresses along the plate obtained from force measurements and slip velocities are then compared to rheometrical measurements. © 2015 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 62: 1356–1363, 2016 相似文献

High efficiency solar cells have been fabricated with wafers from an n‐type Czochralski grown (Cz) ingot using 100% Upgraded Metallurgical‐Grade (UMG) silicon feedstock. The UMG cells fabricated with a passivated emitter and rear totally diffused (PERT) structure have an independently confirmed cell efficiency of 19.8%. This is the highest efficiency reported for a cell based on 100% UMG silicon at the time of publication. The current and power losses are analysed as a function of measured material parameters, including carrier mobility, lifetime and the presence of the boron–oxygen defect. Dopant compensation is shown to reduce both the minority carrier lifetime and mobility, which significantly affects both the current and voltage of the device.
