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 ...
Caracterización biogénica e identificación de prácticas pastoriles mediante el análisis de biomarcadores en sedimentos orgánicos prehistóricos procedentes de abrigos refugio y cuevas redil

En la presente Tesis Doctoral se ha incidido especialmente en establecer la naturaleza de los animales estabulados a lo largo del tiempo, en abrigos de ontaña de la Sierra de Cantabria y la Sierra de Atapuerca, certificados ...
Producing Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids: A Review of Sustainable Sources and Future Trends for the EPA and DHA Market
(MDPI, 2020-11-16)
Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (Omega-3 PUFA) are recognized as being essential compounds for human nutrition and health. The human body generates only low levels of Omega-3 PUFA. Conventional sources of Omega-3 PUFA ...
Improvement of Oil Valorization Extracted from Fish By-Products Using a Handheld near Infrared Spectrometer Coupled with Chemometrics
(MDPI, 2022-04-10)
A handheld near infrared (NIR) spectrometer was used for on-site determination of the fatty acids (FAs) composition of industrial fish oils from fish by-products. Partial least square regression (PLSR) models were developed ...
Production of Docosahexaenoic Acid and Odd-Chain Fatty Acids by Microalgae Schizochytrium limacinum Grown on Waste-Derived Volatile Fatty Acids
(MDPI, 2022-04-14)
Heterotrophic microalgae are recognized as a source of bioactive compounds. However, there are still some drawbacks for their use at an industrial scale associated with the high cost of glucose, the main carbon source in ...
Soluble Salts Quantitative Characterization and Thermodynamic Modeling on Roman Bricks to Assess the Origin of Their Formation
(MDPI, 2021-05-12)
The environmental weathering and the formation of efflorescences on the brick walls are studied at the “Casa di Diana” Mithraeum at Ostia Antica archaeological site. Previous studies on subsoil, bedrock, hydrological systems ...
