Industrial Biotechnology and Applied Microbiology is an optional 128h-course for Chemistry and Biology students at the Faculty of Sciences, University of Buenos Aires, Argentina. This course is usually attended by 25 stu...

ABSTRACT Bio‐inspired optimisation methods have been widely applied to complex real‐world problems, particularly in low‐carbon power and energy systems, where optimisation tasks often involve high‐dimensional, co...

The development of dye-sensitized solar cells requires an in-depth understanding of the interfacial charge-transfer dynamics that take place between dye sensitizers and semiconductors. Here, we describe a prototype syste...

Abstract Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the color matching and metameric behavior of two different composite resins applied to titanium surfaces anodized to yellow and pink colors. The study aimed to de...

The temporal dynamics in biological systems displays a wide range of behaviors, from periodic oscillations, as in rhythms, bursts, long-range (fractal) correlations, chaotic dynamics up to brown and white noise. Herein, ...

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...

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of an hCG sub dose applied at the Hou Hai acupoint on corpus luteum (CL) quality and ovulation induction in mares. Fifteen crossbred mares were distributed...

In the present work, we address the theory of the lattice-gas model to the study of intercalation materials by using a novel kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) algorithm for the simulation of an electrochemical method of everyday...

Maritime transport is the backbone of international trade and globalization. Maritime transport research can be roughly divided into two categories, namely the shipping side and the port side. Most of the classic approac...

Abstract This paper presents a methodology for the generation of a static reluctance network, with magnetomotive sources only in the rotor, applied in the analysis and design of surface mounted permanent magnet synchrono...

Detecting multiple paternity in wild populations of the broad-snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) has important implications for conservation efforts. We have applied microsatellite markers to examine genetic variation i...

Context The very early diagnosis of systemic sclerosis (VEDOSS) criteria were developed to diagnose systemic sclerosis (SSc) at a very early stage. However, several studies have applied these criteria inconsistently, oft...

The need to know the dose of X-rays to be applied to patients suffering diseases such as cancerrequires accurate and stable dosimetric devices. Currently, the use of gelatin-based dosimetershas yielded excellent results ...

The mode of teaching and learning had been drastically changed over the decades. Therefore, one approach might not fit into all scenarios. Collaborative learning promotes collaboration between the students in completing ...

The effects of histidine and its imidazole ring adsorption on the electronic transport properties of graphene were investigated by first-principles calculations within a combination of density functional theory and non-e...

The article focuses on the impact of loads from railway rolling stock on the condition of the ballast prism, the propagation of vibrations in the foundation, and their effect on the dynamic behavior of a high-rise reinfo...

ObjectiveIn the present study, we established a rat model of optic nerve injury to evaluate whether direct local delivery of neurotrophic agents following traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) enhances retinal ganglion cells ...

Abstract Background This study explores whether internalizing and externalizing behaviors mediate the association between adolescent social media use and novel psychoactive substance (NPS) use in Australia, addressing a ...

In the present contribution, benchtop total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (TXRF) has been evaluated as a cost-effective multielemental analytical technique for human placenta analysis. An easy and rapid samp...

Vascular access inadequacy is one of the major cases of morbidity in chronic hemodialysis patients. In our study, our purpose was to show the importance of close follow up of the patients in order to achieve a properly...

The Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) is a widely applied theoretical framework for predicting individual intentions and behaviors. However, its application in the knowledge payment domain remains limited. Existing studie...

The effect of imbalanced data on the optical character recognition of Braille text is investigated by applying two techniques to a set of convolutional neural network image classification models. A multilabel classificat...

The research conducted developed a descriptive understanding of how the cognitive processes of risk assessment, problem solving, and decision making, as well as other supportive processes, are employed by pilots-in-comma...

In the face of increasing human pressures on ecosystems, the selection and application of appropriate methods for assessing resilience are vital for effective decision-making and policymaking in both natural and social e...
