EQUINE GRASS SICKNESS (A MULTIPLE SYSTEMS NEUROPATHY) IS ASSOCIATED WITH ALTERATIONS IN THE GASTROINTESTINAL MYCOBIOME

Equine grass sickness (a multiple systems neuropathy) is associated with alterations in the gastrointestinal mycobiome

Abstract Background Equine grass sickness (EGS) is a multiple systems neuropathy of grazing horses of unknown aetiology.An apparently identical disease occurs in cats, dogs, rabbits, hares, sheep, alpacas and llamas.Many of the risk factors for EGS are consistent with it being a pasture mycotoxicosis.To identify potential causal fungi, the read mor

Anisotropic excitation of surface plasmon polaritons on a metal film by a scattering-type scanning near-field microscope with a non-rotationally-symmetric probe tip

We investigated the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons on gold films with the metallized probe tip of a scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscope (s-SNOM).The emission of the polaritons from the tip, illuminated by near-infrared laser radiation, was found to be anisotropic and not circularly symmetric as expected here on the basi
