In this paper, anti-synchronization of two different chaotic systems is
investigated. On the basis of Lyapunov theory, adaptive control scheme is
proposed when system parameters are unknown or uncertain; sufficient conditions
for the stability of the error dynamics are derived, where the controllers are
designed by using the sum of the state variables in chaotic systems. Numerical
simulations are performed for the Chen system and ...

Several microorganisms as bacteria, fungi, yeast and ectoparasites
compose canine ear canal microbiota. These agents can be native or invasive
pathogens that cause clinical otitis. The aim of this study was to associate Mollicutes in external ear canal with
clinical otitis. 41 domestic dogs were examined, and a total of 82 otologic samples
were collected using sterile swabs, placed in a plastic storage tube containing
2 milliliter ...
