Progreso científico y verdad by Juan Vázquez

“…The strong controversy historically held between Popper' s and Kuhn' s followers that originated from The Structure of Scientific Revolutions by Kuhn, can only be understood when we mean by Popper the tarskian Popper, and hold a misleading interpretation of Kuhn's work. 4) A new meta-theoric approach is reached both in connection with the analysis and explanation of scientific progress and with the not less troublesome concept of truth. …”

The Presence of an ESBL-Encoding Plasmid Reported During a <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> Nosocomial Outbreak in the United Kingdom by Stephen Mark Edward Fordham, Anna Mantzouratou, Elizabeth Sheridan

“…The plasmid from the earliest 2018 <i>K. pneumoniae</i> strain discovered during the outbreak was assembled using both Oxford nanopore long reads and illumina short reads, yielding a fully closed plasmid, pESBL-PH-2018. pESBL-PH-2018 was queried against the complete NCBI RefSeq Plasmid Database, comprising 93,823 plasmids, which was downloaded on 16 July 2024. To identify structurally similar plasmids, strict thresholds were applied, including a mash similarity ≥0.98. …”

Robust and early howling detection based on a sparsity measure by Mina Mounir, Giuliano Bernardi, Toon van Waterschoot

“…Firstly, we propose a novel howling detection feature, coined as NINOS $$^2$$ 2 -Transposed (NINOS $$^2$$ 2 -T), that exploits the particular time-frequency structure of a howling artifact. The NINOS $$^2$$ 2 -T feature is shown to outperform common state-of-the-art HD features, to be more robust to detection threshold variations, and to allow for the detection of early howling and ringing by discarding the often used concept of howling candidates selection. …”

Biodegradation of Diisobutyl Phthalate using Fungi Plastisphere Isolated from Plastic Waste in Mangrove Kadilangu Area by JALU BAHTIAR BAHARUDIN, ANNA RAKHMAWATI

“…Based on these findings, it can be concluded that Aspergillus LT2(1) shows the best agent to degrade diisobutyl phthalate because it has the ability to regulate the flow of nutrients and energy through the structure of hyphae and mycelial tissues and produces oxidoreductase enzymes that are able to degrade recalcitrant compounds.…”
