Review of a Custom-Designed Optical Sensing System for Aero-Engine Applications
(MDPI, 2021-02-25)
Fibre bundle-based reflective optical sensors are good candidates for parameter monitorisation in aero engines. Tip clearance is one of those parameters of great concern that is necessary to monitor. Within this optical ...
Enhancement and tunability of plasmonic-magnetic hyperthermia through shape and size control of Au:Fe3O4 Janus nanoparticles
(ACS, 2023-10)
Nanohyperthermia therapies have appeared as a promising alternative for the treatment of diverse cancer tumors. Multifunctional nanosystems offer a step forward in these therapies. They harness more efficient and multistimuli ...
Dual crosslinking of low-methoxyl pectin by calcium and europium for the simultaneous removal of pharmaceuticals and divalent heavy metals
(Elsevier, 2023-11)
The contamination of water resources by heavy metals and pharmaceuticals is a significant threat to human health and the environment. Pectin is a promising material for removing heavy metals from water. However, its removal ...
Changes during lactation in the mineral element content of mare milk produced in semi-extensive rural farms
(Elsevier, 2023-10)
This study characterizes, for the first time, the content of individual mineral elements in mare milk from Basque Mountain Horse breed, as well as changes that occur during lactation and among semi-extensive rural farms. ...
The P. aeruginosa effector Tse5 forms membrane pores disrupting the membrane potential of intoxicated bacteria
(Nature, 2022)
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa injects effector proteins into neighbouring competitors and host cells, providing a fitness advantage that allows this opportunistic nosocomial pathogen to ...
Challenging isodimorphism concepts: Formation of three crystalline phases in Poly(hexamethylene-ran-octamethylene carbonate) copolymers
(ACS, 2023-10)
In this work, poly(hexamethylene-ran-octamethylene carbonate) copolycarbonates were synthesized by melt polycondensation in a wide range of compositions. The copolymers displayed some of the characteristic isodimorphic ...
Oral administration of viable or heat-inactivated Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG influences on metabolic outcomes and gut microbiota in rodents fed a high-fat high-fructose diet
(Elsevier, 2023-10)
High-fat High-fructose diets have been associated with metabolic disorders and gut microbiota dysbiosis. Thus, the administration of probiotic or postbiotic from the strain Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG has been investigated ...
Exploiting the use of the decarboxylative S-alkylation reaction to produce self-blowing, recyclable polycarbonate foams
(Wiley, 2023-10)
Polymeric foams are widely used in many industrial applications due to their light weight and superior thermal, mechanical, and optical properties. Currently, increasing research efforts is being directed towards the ...
Phonetic accommodation in non‑native directed speech supports L2 word learning and pronunciation
(NATURE, 2023)
This study assessed whether Non-native Directed Speech (NNDS) facilitates second language (L2) learning, specifically L2 word learning and production. Spanish participants (N = 50) learned novel English words, presented ...
