Inclusion of juvenile stages improves diversity assessment and adds to our understanding of mite ecology - A case study from mires in Norway
(Wiley, 2022-12)
Arachnid orders, Mesostigmata, Trombidiformes, and Sarcoptiformes, commonly known as ‘mites’, are abundant in mires, both as adults and as juveniles. However, due to the challenges of identification, the juvenile forms are ...
Kinship practices in the early state El Argar society from Bronze Age Iberia
(Nature, 2022)
The Early Bronze Age in Europe is characterized by social and genetic transformations, starting in the early 3rd millennium BCE. New settlement and funerary structures, artifacts and techniques indicate times of change ...
Accumulation, Depuration, and Biological Effects of Polystyrene Microplastic Spheres and Adsorbed Cadmium and Benzo(a)pyrene on the Mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis
(MDPI, 2022-01-05)
Filter feeders are target species for microplastic (MP) pollution, as particles can accumulate in the digestive system, disturbing feeding processes and becoming internalized in tissues. MPs may also carry pathogens or ...
Sustainable PHBH–Alumina Nanowire Nanocomposites: Properties and Life Cycle Assessment
(MDPI, 2022-11-20)
Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) (PHBH) is a bio-based polyester with the potential to replace some common polymers of fossil origin. However, PHBH presents serious limitations, such as low stiffness, tendency ...
Magneto Twister: Magneto Deformation of the Water-Air Interface by a Superhydrophobic Magnetic Nanoparticle Layer
(American Chemical Society, 2022)
[EN] Remote manipulation of superhydrophobic surfacesprovides fascinating features in water interface-related applications. Asuperhydrophobic magnetic nanoparticle colloid layer is able to float on the water-air interface ...
Genetic characterization and gene expression associated with the fatty acid profile in cattle
(2022-03-31)
El sector agroalimentario es de gran importancia para la economía europea. La nueva política europea enreproducción animal está marcando una tendencia hacia sistemas de producción sostenibles utilizando recursosgenéticos ...
Paper based microfluidic platform for single-step detection of mesenchymal stromal cells secreted VEGF
(Elsevier, 2022-03-22)
[EN] Low cost and user-friendly paper microfluidic devices, combined with DNA-based biosensors with binding capacities for specific molecules, have been proposed for the developing of novel platforms that ease and speed-up ...
Toxicity to sea urchin embryos of crude and bunker oils weathered under ice alone and mixed with dispersant
(Elsevier, 2022)
[EN] A multi-index approach (larval lenghthening and malformations, developmental disruption, and genotoxicity) was applied using sea-urchin embryos as test-organisms. PAH levels measured in the under-ice weathered aqueous ...
Predicting environmental concentrations and the potential risk of Plant Protection Products (PPP) on non-target soil organisms accounting for regional and landscape ecological variability in european soils
(Elsevier, 2022-09)
[EN] Plant Protection Products (PPP) raise concerns as their application may cause effects on some soil organisms considered non-target species which could be highly sensitive to some pesticides. The European Food and ...
Application of a battery of cell and tissue level biomarkers in mussels (Mytilus sp.) from Arctic and Subarctic latitudes: identification of confounding factors, biomarker baseline values and responsiveness for an integrated environmental health status assessment
(2022-01-21)
El efecto de los factores ecológicos y fisiológicos influyen de manera drástica en las respuestas biológicas medidas en organismos centinela como los mejillones (Mytilus sp.) haciendo que la evaluación de la salud ...
