Biópsias do endométrio de 16 éguas sexualmente maduras, em estro e diestro, foram processadas para microscopia de luz utilizando-se fixação em formalina ou Bouin e inclusão em resina plástica à base de glicol met...

Feeding conditions during the nestling period may significantly affect whole-life fitness in altricial birds but little is known about the physiological mechanisms responsible for these effects. Permanent changes (irreve...

Abstract Conservation of long-lived marine species depends on understanding how individuals use habitats as they grow. Yet management often relies on size- or place-based stage classifications that overlook behavioral pl...

During aging, the brain undergoes changes that impair cognitive capacity and circuit plasticity, including a marked decrease in production of adult-born hippocampal neurons. It is unclear whether development and integrat...

This research aims to develop polyurethane foam using recycled PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) and HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) plastic bottles as substitutes for polyol. Waste PET bottles were recycled through a gl...

Durante as recentes décadas, as artes plásticas em Cuba desenvolveram diversas tendências como a abstração, o fotorrealismo, o neoexpressionismo, o conceitualismo etc., enquanto algumas temáticas e alguns caractere...

Experience-related plasticity is an essential component of networks involved in early olfactory processing. However, the mechanisms and functions of plasticity in these neural networks are not well understood. We studied...

This study aims to determine the comparison of oil yields obtained from processing HDPE plastic waste by comparing quantitatively and qualitatively the fuel oil produced. The processing of plastic waste into oil by pyrol...

The extended evolutionary synthesis (EES) emphasizes integrative approaches to understanding distributed adaptability, incorporating development and intergenerational effects, inclusive inheritance and niche construction...

Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), such as small/big home appliances, TVs, computers and smartphones, has turnedinto a significant and growing pollution issue. WEEE is a complex mixture of materials a...

Organic waste is currently causing a huge challenge for the planet. For many years, managing waste was mostly about dumping it in landfills. On the other hand, anaerobic digestion is now proving to be a good solution for...

Abstract The massive production of plastics, together with inadequate waste management, has intensified the problem of plastic pollution. Recently, the scientific community has increasingly investigated the interactions ...

The discontinuities distributed in underground structures are the important factors that affect the mechanical characteristics of rock mass, and to study the mechanical behavior of rock discontinuities under cyclic loadi...

Este artigo discute as fronteiras entre o estético e o reparador no contexto das cirurgias plásticas das mamas. Buscamos compreender como estes limites têm se conformado na prática destes procedimentos. Para tanto, p...

In this work we use complex systems methodologies to analyze quantitatively the impact of an intervention involving cooperative and self-awareness activities on social interactions in children. The aim of this study is t...

Natural hybridization commonly produces individuals with intermediate morphological and genetic characteristics, but their response to environmental stress is still uncertain, with some studies showing that transgressive...

Abstract The plastic pollution crisis urges innovative recycling solutions. Promising approaches especially for polyester-containing wastes include enzymatic hydrolysis and microbial upcycling. For efficient enzymatic hy...

Brain-inspired neuromorphic computing systems require hardware components analogous to biological neurons and synapses. Honey based natural organic memristor has demonstrated promising nonvolatile memristive behaviors, w...

This article presents the results of a numerical study on the performance of various configurations of lightweight monolithic slabs of the BubbleDeck system, which use hollow plastic ball inserts to eliminate inefficient...

This is the first part of a special issue on niche construction, plasticity, and inclusive inheritance in the context of the extended evolutionary synthesis. In this part there are seven contributions: Benitez, R.A., M...

In this paper we review several studies on V. germanica behavioral plasticity while relocating a food source in natural environments. This exotic social wasp, which has become established in many parts of the world, disp...

Abstract Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) has long been characterized by its aggressive clinical course and a deceptive initial sensitivity to chemotherapy that almost invariably yields to recalcitrant disease. Recent genom...

Abstract To satisfy the requirements for the precise formation of large-scale high-performance lightweight components with inner ring reinforcement, a new multidirectional loading rotary extrusion forming technology is d...

Abstract Internal explosions within ship compartments pose a severe threat to structural integrity. To investigate the plastic dynamic response of ship bulkheads under such loading, this study presents a comprehensive ap...
