This book presents the contents of an introduction course to Computer Science for engineering disciplines where the engineer makes use of the computer not only as an "office tool" but also as an integral part of his desi...

Objective: The purpose of this study is to report a case in which combinatory therapy of botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) and neurodynamic mobilization (NM) was used as treatment for a patient with severe upper limb spast...

Moxidectin (MOX) belongs to the macrocyclic lactones, a class of anthelmintic drugs widely used in livestock that can enter the soil environment and persist by binding to soil organic matter. While MOX is effective again...

Borophene Quantum Dots (BPQDs) have been shown to exhibit unique properties that make them suitable as zero-dimensional nanomaterials. These properties include optical, structural, electrical, mechanical, photophysical, ...

pH sensors are extremely useful in various applications such as health, food and environmental monitoring. Due to this fact the development of planar, low-cost and high-performance pH sensors that can be fabricated in la...

Grazing by domestic livestock in the Caldenal rangelands has been threatening the ecological balance of this unique biome located in the semiarid zone of central Argentina. The aim of this review was to describe and expl...

Surface functionalization of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) is commonly used to improve their dispersibility, functionality, and performance across diverse applications. However, the potential biosafety risks of these mod...

Yogurt is a fermented food consumed worldwide and it is associated with a diversity of health benefits. The aim of this work was to determine the functionality of a high-protein lactose-reduced fat-reduced yogurt, throug...

Central obesity is characterized by visceral adipose tissue (VAT) expansion, considered one of the main risk factors for metabolic complications. In recent years, new drugs have been studied for obesity treatment. Liragl...

The development of materials that allow the sustained release of therapeutic proteins is the key feature for improving their pharmacokinetics, bioavailability, and dose reduction. In this context, hydrogels are attractin...

Urban microclimate are localized climatic conditions within urban areas that are shaped by the buildings, population density, land cover, and vegetation, and that differ significantly from surrounding rural contexts. The...

Sporisorium reilianum has been commonly used for its high nutritional value, with its main active ingredient being polysaccharides. However, the high molecular weight (Mw) of polysaccharides limits their functionality, a...
