Modular micropumps fabricated by 3D printed technologies for polymeric microfluidic device applications
(Elsevier, 2021-04-24)
In order to facilitate the implementation of microfluidic technology for rapid point-of-care analysis, there is a demand for self-powered microfluidics. The modular architecture of degas driven plug-and-play polymeric ...
A microfluidic column of water index-matched packed microspheresfor label-free observation of water pollutants
(Springer Nature, 2021-03-28)
A microfluidic, label-free optical sensor for water pollutants, which is based on a packed micro-column of microspheres with refractive index similar to that of water, is presented. The perfluoropolyether microspheres are ...
Reviewing in situ analytical techniques used to research Martian geochemistry: From the Viking Project to the MMX future mission
(Elsevier, 2022-03-08)
[EN] The study of space has always been a field of great interest and thus space missions are becoming more and more ambitious with time. Therefore, with the 50th anniversary of the first spacecraft to land on Mars, a ...
Grape Polyphenols Supplementation for Exercise-Induced Oxidative Stress
(BioMed Central, 2021-01-07)
Exercise induces free radicals' overproduction and therefore, an enhancement of oxidative stress, defined as an imbalance between the production of reactive species and the intrinsic antioxidant defense. Redox activity of ...
Tunable Superparamagnetic Ring (tSPRing) for Droplet Manipulation
(Wiley-VCH, 2021-05-13)
The manipulation of droplets by magnetic field forms the basis of a fascinating technology that is currently in development. Often, the movement of droplets with magnets involves adding magnetic particles in or around the ...
Invisible Pollution. Emerging marine pollutants
(University of Valencia, 2021)
Since the start of the Anthropocene, the planet has been threatened by a number of risks associated with human activity. Among them, chemical pollution is posing conceptual and technical challenges that are particularly ...
Low toxicity deep eutectic solvent-based ferrofluid for the determination of UV filters in environmental waters by stir bar dispersive liquid microextraction.
(Elsevier, 2022-06)
[EN] In this work, a low toxicity deep eutectic solvent-based ferrofluid is presented for the first time as magnetic fluid to be used as an efficient solvent in liquid-based microextraction techniques. This ferrofluid is ...
Livestock activity biomarkers: Estimating domestication and diet of livestock in ancient samples
(Elsevier, 2021-12)
[EN]Faecal matter is commonly recovered from archaeological sites related to human/animal activity. The identification of its source is essential to understand the domestication process and the relationship between humans ...
Mapping the Research Landscape on Poaching: a Decadal Systematic Review
(Frontiers Media, 2021-05-17)
Poaching is a widespread activity that affects wildlife management goals and undermines conservation efforts worldwide. Despite its complexity, poaching is still commonly addressed by researchers as a one-dimensional ...
Ex situ and in situ Magnetic Phase Synthesised Magneto-Driven Alginate Beads
(Elsevier, 2022-03-15)
[EN] Biocompatible magnetic hydrogels provide a great source of synthetic materials, which facilitate remote stimuli, enabling safer biological and environmental applications. Prominently, the ex situ and in situ magnetic ...
