Influence of dietary interventions on the immune system: an investigation of the impact of omega-3 fatty acids, dietary fermentable materials and high energy diets
(2016-12-01)
Dietary interventions vary in ability to influence immune activity. Separate investigations were conducted to determine the immune impact of omega-3 fatty acids, dietary fermentable materials (DFM) and high energy (HE) ...
The modification of fuel cell-based breath alcohol sensor materials to improve water retention of sensing performance
(2016-03-01)
Fuel cell based breath alcohol sensors (BrASs) are one of the most important tools used by law enforcement today. While these devices are used globally, they all suffer from a common deficiency: reliance on water. The ...
Alloy catalysts for fuel cell-based alcohol sensors
(2016-05-01)
Direct ethanol fuel cells (DEFCs) are attractive from both economic and environmental standpoints for generating renewable energy and powering vehicles and portable electronic devices. The cost and performance of the DEFCs ...
Cognitive function during exertional heat stress assessed using traditional and serious game technology
(2016-06-01)
Firefighting is a physically demanding occupation requiring intermittent bouts of work resulting in increased levels of cardiovascular and thermal strain, while making decisions requiring higher order cognitive abilities ...
A framework for privacy-preserving data sharing in smart grid
(2016-01-01)
While smart grid introduces a lot of enhancements to the traditional power grid and improves managing and controlling consumers demands, it also introduces security and privacy issues. Therefore, failure to address them ...
