Age and sex selection of prey is an aspect of predator ecology which has been extensively studied in both temperate and African ecosystems.This dimension, along with fecundity, survival rates of prey and mortality factors other than predation are important in laying down the population dynamics of prey and have important implications in the managem

We propose a chaotic spatial symbol transforming encryption method for enhancing the physical layer security in fiber-optic systems based on space-division multiplexed (SDM) transmission.The designed 3-D chaotic sequences are used to scramble the real and imaginary part of quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) symbols, permute the symbol-to-space m

Organisations deploy digital platforms to maximise value and transform their businesses.The success of most platforms is attributed to Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), the protocols enabling different software to communicate with each other.However, previous research on APIs has predominantly focused on the technical dimensions, such as d

Mebendazole is an anthelmintic drug used in cattle production.However, residues may occur in produced food and in excretions, jeopardizing population health.A method based on micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) was developed to determine mebendazole in dairy products (milk, cheese, butter, and curd) and nitrogenous waste (urine and dung) from bovi
