ABSTRACT Herpes simplex viruses (HSVs) cause significant morbidity and mortality in humans worldwide.Herpesviruses mediate entry by a multicomponent virus-encoded machinery.Herpesviruses enter cells by endosomal low-pH and pH-neutral mechanisms in a cell-specific manner.HSV mediates cell entry via the envelope glycoproteins gB and gD and the hetero
Abstract HIV self-sampling and -testing (HIVSS/ST) reduces testing barriers and potentially reaches populations who may not test otherwise.In the Netherlands, at-home HIV tests became commercially available around 2016, but data on user experiences are limited.This study aimed to explore characteristics of users and their experiences with HIVSS/ST.

In this paper we demonstrate how the profile distance method was transformed into a software environment enabling the decision maker to utilize a complex decision making tool without any advanced knowledge of the underlying mathematical and technical features.We present theoretical and technical aspects as Wetsuits well as contextual and usage rela
Meeting the generation schedule in a wind farm is a major issue.This work utilized battery energy storage systems (BESS) integrated wind farms (WF) to supply energy to the power grid at a pre-determined generation schedule, which was set previously based on the meteorological forecast and BESS characteristics.This study proposed the integration of
