The Synthetic Cannabinoid URB447 Exerts Antitumor and Antimetastatic Effect in Melanoma and Colon Cancer
(MDPI, 2022-09-20)
The endocannabinoid system is widespread through the body and carries out a wide variety of functions. However, its involvement in other pathologies, such as cancer, still needs further attention. We aim to investigate the ...
Thermal Energy Storage (TES) Prototype Based on Geopolymer Concrete for High-Temperature Applications
(MDPI, 2022-10-12)
Thermal energy storage (TES) systems are dependent on materials capable of operating at elevated temperatures for their performance and for prevailing as an integral part of industries. High-temperature TES assists in ...
The Myth of The Annular Lipids
(MDPI, 2022-10-22)
In the early 1970s, the existence of a “lipid annulus” stably surrounding the individual intrinsic protein molecules was proposed by several authors. They referred to a number of lipid molecules in slow exchange with the ...
Virus Prevalence in Egg Samples Collected from Naturally Selected and Traditionally Managed Honey Bee Colonies across Europe
(MDPI, 2022-11-03)
Monitoring virus infections can be an important selection tool in honey bee breeding. A recent study pointed towards an association between the virus-free status of eggs and an increased virus resistance to deformed wing ...
Enhancing the Mechanical Properties of 3D-Printed Waterborne Polyurethane-Urea and Cellulose Nanocrystal Scaffolds through Crosslinking
(MDPI, 2022-11-18)
In this work, shape-customized scaffolds based on waterborne polyurethane-urea (WBPUU) were prepared via the combination of direct ink writing 3D-printing and freeze-drying techniques. To improve the printing performance ...
High Entropy Alloys for Energy Conversion and Storage: A Review of Grain Boundary Wetting Phenomena
(MDPI, 2022-09-28)
The multicomponent alloys with nearly equal concentration of components, also known as high entropy alloys (HEAs), were first proposed 22 years ago. The HEAs quickly became very important in materials science due to their ...
A Complete Framework for a Behavioral Planner with Automated Vehicles: A Car-Sharing Fleet Relocation Approach
(MDPI, 2022-11-09)
Currently, research on automated vehicles is strongly related to technological advances to achieve a safe, more comfortable driving process in different circumstances. The main achievements are focused mainly on highway ...
Why Do Bio-Carbonates Exist?
(MDPI, 2022-11-03)
Calcium carbonate precipitation associated with biotic activity is first recorded in Archaean rocks. The oldest putative fossils related to hydrothermal vents have been dated at ~3.77 Ga (possibly 4.29 Ga). Stromatolites, ...
Match Loads May Predict Neuromuscular Fatigue and Intermittent-Running Endurance Capacity Decrement after a Soccer Match
(MDPI, 2022-11-21)
How the match-derived load metrics relate to post-match fatigue in soccer is scarcely researched. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine the associations between soccer match-related internal and external loads, ...
EMD-based data augmentation method applied to handwriting data for the diagnosis of Essential Tremor using LSTM networks
(Nature, 2022)
The increasing capacity of today's technology represents great advances in diagnosing diseases using standard procedures supported by computer science. Deep learning techniques are able to extract the characteristics of ...
