Microfluidics and materials for smart water monitoring: A review
(Elsevier, 2021-03-13)
Water quality monitoring of drinking, waste, continental and seawaters is of great importance to ensure safety and wellbeing for humans, fauna and flora. Researchers are developing robust water monitoring microfluidic ...
Tuning the Properties of Active Microtubule Networks by Depletion Forces
(American Chemical Society, 2021-07-06)
Suspensions of microtubules and nonadsorbing particles form thick and long bundles due to depletion forces. Such interactions act at the nanometer scale and define the structural and dynamical properties of the resulting ...
Light-Powered Reactivation of Flagella and Contraction of Microtubule Networks: Toward Building an Artificial Cell
(American Chemical Society, 2021-06-18)
Artificial systems capable of self-sustained movement with self-sufficient energy are of high interest with respect to the development of many challenging applications, including medical treatments, but also technical ...
Modular micropumps fabricated by 3D printed technologies for polymeric microfluidic device applications
(Elsevier, 2021-04-24)
In order to facilitate the implementation of microfluidic technology for rapid point-of-care analysis, there is a demand for self-powered microfluidics. The modular architecture of degas driven plug-and-play polymeric ...
Phenotypic and environmental correlates of natal dispersal in a long-lived territorial vulture
(Springer Nature, 2021-03-08)
Natal dispersal, the movement between the birth and the first breeding site, has been rarely studied in long-lived territorial birds with a long-lasting pre-breeding stage. Here we benefited from the long-term monitoring ...
Towards a 3D hydrodynamic characterization from the joint analysis and blending of multiplatform observations for potential marine applications in the southeastern Bay of Biscay
(2021-10-15)
La necesidad de un mayor conocimiento y una gestión sostenible de las áreas costeras ha suscitado la instalación de observatorios que monitorizan su estado. A pesar de que la información aportada por estos observatorios ...
Tunable Superparamagnetic Ring (tSPRing) for Droplet Manipulation
(Wiley-VCH, 2021-05-13)
The manipulation of droplets by magnetic field forms the basis of a fascinating technology that is currently in development. Often, the movement of droplets with magnets involves adding magnetic particles in or around the ...
Deciphering the past and the future response of marine pelagic fishes to global warming
(2020-01-24)
La evidencia del calentamiento del sistema climático es inequívoca afectando a la distribución y abundancia de especies, así como en la fenología (fenómenos biológicos estacionales en relación con las condiciones climáticas). ...
Advances in Maritime Spatial Planning, under an ecosystem-based approach, by developing and implementing decision support tools
(2020-06-12)
Due to increasing competition for ocean space, there is a signifcant need for a coherent maritime management and planning. While achieving social and economic objectives, marine ecosystems should be protected by balancing ...
The Effects of the Alteration of the Phenotypic Appeareance and Modifications of the Early Environment on the Welfare of Laying Hens.
(2021-10-08)
Los animales criados con fines productivos, como las gallinas de puesta, están frecuentemente expuestos a una amplia gamma de desafíos tanto sociales como ambientales desde el día en el que nacen. El objetivo principal de ...
