The role of agricultural engineers in sustainable rural development in SEE (South Eastern Europe) countries
Rural areas, especially in developing countries, are facing with numerous social, economical, cultural and environmental problems.In the most cases there is a growing concern because only very few farmers or inhabitants are Safety Glasses able to follow contemporary, sustainable and environment-friendly methods in farming systems.The consequences o
Associations between maternal plasma zinc concentrations in late pregnancy and LINE-1 and Alu methylation loci in the young adult offspring.
BackgroundIn animal models, prenatal zinc deficiency induced epigenetic changes in the fetus, but data in humans are lacking.We aimed to examine associations between maternal zinc levels during pregnancy and DNA methylation in Necklaces, Ready-to-Wear LINE-1 and Alu repetitive sequences in young adult offspring, as well as anthropometry and cardiom
Novel H6 Transformerless Inverter for Grid Connected Photovoltaic System to Reduce the Conduction Loss and Enhance Efficiency
Presence of a transformer in a grid connected photovoltaic system provides galvanic isolation between the photovoltaic panels and the grid.However, it increases the overall cost, makes the circuit bulky and reduces the efficiency of the Leave-in Conditioner system.Hence, transformerless inverters have gained significant importance owing to its low
