Mechanism-Based Pharmacokinetic Model for the Deglycosylation Kinetics of 20(S)-Ginsenosides Rh2
Aim: The 20(S)-ginsenoside Rh2 (Rh2) is being developed as a new antitumor drug.However, to date, little is known about the kinetics of its deglycosylation metabolite (protopanoxadiol) (PPD) following Rh2 administration.The aim of this work was to 1) simultaneously characterise the pharmacokinetics of Rh2 and PPD following intravenous and oral Rh2
Auditory Resonance: A Transdisciplinary Concept?
Focusing on the influential work of the German sociologist Hartmut Rosa, as well as on selected positions in sound studies, this essay explores some aspects of auditory resonance, an over-determined concept exemplified by music that no single conceptual framework can exhaustively explain.For this reason, transdisciplinary research is especially pro

Staphylococcus microti Strains Isolated from an Italian Mediterranean Buffalo Herd
S.microti is a new species among non-aureus staphylococci (NAS) frequently found in bovine milk samples and associated with subclinical mastitis (SCM).The aim of this study was to analyze the presence of S.microti in 200 composite milk samples and 104 milking parlor surface swabs collected at a buffalo farm in Southern Italy to define its presence
