Vitamin D status is influenced by well-known determinants, but factors associated with low 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in the cutaneous melanoma population are not well defined.The aim of this study was to confirm the well-known determinants and to assess new determinants for 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in a cutaneous melanoma population.In a prospec
World health is increasingly threatened by the growing number of spice-related food hazards.Further development of reliable methods for rapid, non-targeted identification of copyright ingredients within the supply chain is needed.ENEA has developed a portable, user-friendly photoacoustic laser system for food fraud detection, based on a quantum Ene
The contribution presents the results of a 5-year (2008-2012) dendroecological research in a Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst.) clone forest (Northern Slovakia).Due to different climatic and soil moisture conditions in the monitored years, different seasonal courses of stem increment formation were observed using Speed Sensor band dendrometers
The atmosphere background wind field controls the propagation of gravity waves from the troposphere through the stratosphere into the mesosphere.During January 2003 the MaCWAVE campaign took place at Esrange, with the purpose of observing vertically ascending waves induced by orography.Temperature data from the U. Bonn lidar at Esrange (68°
