A new spider species of the genus Calommata Lucas, 1837 is described from China: C. yueluensis sp. nov. (♂♀). The male of C. hangzhica Li & Xu, 2022 is described for the first time. Detailed descriptions, pho...

A comprehensive structural, petrological, and geophysical study of the 385 ± 2 Ma Devonian El Hornito Pluton (EHP) in the Sierra Grande de San Luis, Argentina, is presented. We establish that the EHP results from the in...

From 2008 to 2011, several planned modifications were implemented at the RA-6 reactor in Argentina, leading to significant benefits for future BNCT treatments. New capabilities have been implemented in NCTPlan treatment ...

In this work we demonstrate the feasibility to couple adsorption with Fenton and photo-Fenton process to separate and mineralize crystal violet (CV) dissolved in water. Montmorillonite (MMT) and Iron modified Montmorill...

The recent expansion of biodiversity recording through citizen science projects represents a valuable tool for enriching our knowledge of biota. Given the rapid ecosystem changes driven by human activities, plant communi...

In amphibians, intra- or interspecific chemical cues are an important source of information about possible predation risk. In anuran tadpoles, this information causes changes at different levels including behavior, morph...

The coalescence process of two nanoparticles to yield a core-shell structure is analyzed by a well-tempered metadynamics procedure. This methodology has been shown to be useful in understanding the present phenomenon in ...

The Paranapiacaba Mountains are a region of Brazil where the stonefly fauna is relatively well known. Despite this, there are still gaps in knowledge that need to be filled. In this study, through field sampling and mole...

Dual infections with both bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV)-1 and -2 seem to be unusual. The aim of this study was to describe an infection with both BVDV genotypes in a stillborn calf. Virus isolation and phylogenetic ...

Lecithins are frequently applied in the food industry as emulsifiers, viscosity regulators, and dispersing agents. The main aim of the present work was to study the emulsifying capability of diverse sunflower lecithins s...

In this study, we describe, for the first time, the genetic composition of the southern elephant seal Mirounga leonina (SES) breeding colony at Potter Peninsula (PP) (King George Island, Antarctica) based on a fragment o...

This note describes novel observations of behavior in the Chimango Caracara. The observations were made in a densely urbanized area of Mar del Plata city, Argentina. The first observation describes the first record of ca...

The number of studies of Little Ice Age (LIA) glacier fluctuations in southern South America has increased in recent years but is largely biased towards sites in the south Patagonian Andes. In this paper we present a det...

Objective: The following pilot mixed-design study evaluate a novel intervention feasibility and acceptability to generate preliminary hypotheses considering its potential to promote responsible screen and book use, paren...

The organ of Corti, the auditory mammalian sensory epithelium, contains two types of mechanotransducer cells, inner and outer hair cells (IHCs and OHCs, respectively). IHCs are involved in conveying acoustic stimuli to t...

The anisakid species Contracaecum pelagicum Johnston and Mawson, 1942, is reported for first time at 2 different sites on the Argentine coast (Península Valdés, 42°04'S, 63°38'W and Mar del Plata, 38°05'S, 57°38'W)...

Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is an important pathogen of ruminants worldwide and is characterized by high genetic diversity and a wide range of clinical presentations. In Argentina, several studies have evaluated t...

Trade-offs between yield and grain quality for dry milling are common in maize (Zea mays L.), but the magnitude of these correlations can differ depending on the specific quality trait. We aimed to quantify the relations...

In 2012, a severe drought struck the southeastern of Brazil compromising the Paraná River Basin reservoirs. Here, we described how this climatic event promoted a massive mortality of the giant freshwater mussel Anodonti...

Background: Yerba mate (YM) drinking is associated with higher lumbar spine and femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women. We analyzed its effect on total hip BMD and reported the contribution of th...

Glaciers in the northern Patagonian Andes (35-46°gS) have shown a dramatic decline in area in the last decades. However, little is known about glacier mass balance changes in this region. This study presents a geodetic ...

The aim of this paper is to clear up some issues in a second phase of the Cambridge-Cambridge capital theory controversies, when the neoclassical argument was chiefly conducted in terms of the Walrasian specification of ...

International agreements aim to conserve 17% of Earth's land area by 2020 but include no area-based conservation targets within the working landscapes that support human needs through farming, ranching, and forestry. Thr...
