Solving the film formation dilemma: blends of soft core–hard “shell” particles
(ACS, 2023-11)
The use of soft core–hard “shell” polymer particles is an alternative to overcome the film formation dilemma (achieving, at the same time, good film formation at a low temperature and good mechanical properties at a usually ...
Molecular characterization of multidrug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates from Alexandria, Egypt
(Frontiers Media, 2023-07)
Carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii is a major global concern, especially in countries of the Middle East and North Africa, where the antibiotic resistance rates are on the rise. The aim of this study was to study ...
Two-Sample Mendelian Randomization detects bidirectional causality between gut microbiota and celiac disease in individuals with high genetic risk
(Frontiers Media, 2023-06)
Background: Celiac Disease (CeD) is an autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten intake in genetically susceptible individuals. Highest risk individuals are homozygous for the Human Leucocyte Antigen (HLA) DQ2.5 haplotype ...
Using biological traits to assess diet selection: the case of the Pyrenean Desman
(Oxford University Press, 2023-12)
Traditionally, researchers have assessed diet selection by comparing consumed versus available taxa. However, taxonomic assignment is probably irrelevant for predators, who likely base their selection on characteristics ...
Synthesis, morphology, and crystallization kinetics of polyheptalactone (PHL)
(ACS, 2023-06)
Aliphatic polyesters are widely studied due to their excellent properties and low-cost production and also because, in many cases, they are biodegradable and/or recyclable. Therefore, expanding the range of available ...
Disentangling the role of electrons and phonons in the photoinduced CO desorption and CO oxidation on (O,CO)-Ru(0001)
(Frontiers Media, 2023-07)
The role played by electronic and phononic excitations in the femtosecond laser induced desorption and oxidation of CO coadsorbed with O on Ru(0001) is investigated using ab initio molecular dynamics with electronic friction. ...
Transformation in economic studies via problem-based learning: facing fears to acquire professional skills
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2020-10-20)
Over the last 40 years, the learning process in university studies has
gradually shifted from a teacher-centered approach to a studentcentered
approach. Economic and Business studies are a suitable
sector for active ...
Sustainable development goals in public administrations: Enabling conditions in local governments
(Sage Publications, 2023-01-04)
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a challenge that many public administrations face in promoting sustainable growth. Local governments, as the governmental tier closest to citizens, should deliberate upon strategies ...
Metal-free initiators pave the way for chemically recyclable polymers with industrially relevant properties
(Nature, 2023)
To solve the environmental disaster that is generated by legacy plastics accumulation, researchers are looking to design plastics
with enhanced end-of-life options, but many circular plastics do not meet industrial ...
