The aim of the present study now is to make a morphometric description of a population of Orchestia selkirki Stebbing, 1888, found in a so-called "Claro Verde", that is a zone with Myrceugenia fernandeziana (Hook. & Arn....

Abstract Luis Fernández Moreno has given a number of arguments that descriptive knowledge or stipulations have a greater role in the fixing of the reference of natural kind terms than I allow in my book Roads to Referen...

Nest predation can have several effects on breeding birds. It reduces breeding success but also, it can strongly affect parental investment and reproductive decisions. Here we tested the extent of effects of nest predati...

The characteristics and duration of the processes occurring from the design and designation of a Marine Protected Area (MPA) to the effective implementation and renewal of its management plan were analysed in 234 MPAs fr...

AIMS AND METHODS: We evaluated the modulation of liver stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (Scd1) by dietary factors and insulin resistance (IR) in two experimental models of high-fat diet (HFD)-induced nonalcoholic fatty liver...

Influencia de factores bióticos y abióticos sobre las comunidades de parásitos metazoos de un pez presa nativo: estudio en 28 lagos andino patagónicos. Galaxias maculatus (puyen chico) es una especie de pez presa que...

In this work, we propose a novel method for continuous real-time measurement of the dynamics of the nonlinear refractive index n2. This is particularly important for characterizing phenomena or materials (such as biologi...

In intensive pig farming antibiotics are often administered to sows during peripartum for the treatment of mastitis metritis agalactea (MMA) on one hand and with the irrational goal of decreasing the bacterial load to wh...

The cell wall polysaccharides from Codium decorticatum and their assembly were studied and these results were compared with those obtained previously for this genus. The water soluble polysaccharides are: i) Pyruvylated ...

The outbreak of COVID-19, the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, continues to affect millions of people around the world. The absence of a globally distributed effective treatment makes the exploration of new mechanisms of ac...

Density Functional Theories (DFT) methods were applied to describe the catalytic effect of a series of sulfonated NHC gold(I) complexes In order to explain the experimental results obtained in the hydration of phenylacet...

Abstract Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing threat to public health, especially in low- and middle-income countries. This study aimed to identify multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens in clinical sample...

Abstract: There are few studies that present the image of the profession of psychology in the Spanish context. This descriptive and correlational study aims to describe the current state of opinion about psychology that ...

The search for substitutes for synthetic polymers in food packaging has received significant attention from both researchers and the industrial sector. A promising approach involves utilizing edible films based on tapioc...

The occurrence of abnormalities in amphibians has been reported in many populations, and its increase could be related to environmental pollution and habitat degradation. We evaluated the type and prevalence of abnormali...

We present herein an in-depth study on the activity of amidinoquinoxaline N-oxides 1 against Gram-positive and Gram-negative anaerobic bacteria. Based on 5-phenyl-2,3-dihydropyrimidoquinoxaline N-oxide 1a, the selected s...

Rock avalanches move large volumes of material causing a highly destructive power over large areas. In these events, it is possible to monitor the evolution of slopes but failure cannot be always prevented. For this reas...

Melanosuchus niger (Crocodylia, Alligatoroidea) is one of the six living caimanine species widely distributed throughout the Amazon River basin today. Although there is only one extant species of Melanosuchus, fossil mat...

Edible films containing natural antimicrobials, like natamycin and nisin, constitute an emerging technology that provides an additional stress factor for food preservation. However, it has been observed that edible films...

Cheese surfaces can be colonized by undesirable microorganisms during the different processing stages, with ripening being the most affected. Consumers demand have increased the interest in using natural antimicrobials s...
