Leveraging Final Degree Projects for Open Source Software Contributions
(MDPI, 2021-05-15)
(1) Background: final year students of computer science engineering degrees must carry out a final degree project (FDP) in order to graduate. Students’ contributions to improve open source software (OSS) through FDPs can ...
The 3D Bioprinted Scaffolds for Wound Healing
(MDPI, 2022-02-21)
Skin tissue engineering and regeneration aim at repairing defective skin injuries and progress in wound healing. Until now, even though several developments are made in this field, it is still challenging to face the ...
Experimental study and modeling of biomass char gasification kinetics in a novel thermogravimetric flow reactor
(Elsevier B.V., 2020-04-25)
[EN]This work pursues the validation of a new reactor for the evaluation of char gasification kinetics. This novel reactor allows continuous gas flow through the fixed bed sample and accurately monitoring the mass loss ...
The commensal bacterium Lactiplantibacillus plantarum imprints innate memory-like responses in mononuclear phagocytes
(Taylor and Francis, 2021-07-05)
Gut microbiota is a constant source of antigens and stimuli to which the resident immune system has developed tolerance. However, the mechanisms by which mononuclear phagocytes, specifically monocytes/macrophages, cope ...
A new Cretaceous thyreophoran from Patagonia supports a South American lineage of armoured dinosaurs
(Nature, 2022)
The early evolution of thyreophoran dinosaurs is thought to have occurred primarily in northern continents since most evidence comes from the Lower and Middle Jurassic of Europe and North America. The diversification into ...
Design of a New 3D Gelatin—Alginate Scaffold Loaded with Cannabis sativa Oil
(MDPI, 2022-10-25)
There is an increasing medical need for the development of new materials that could replace damaged organs, improve healing of critical wounds or provide the environment required for the formation of a new healthy tissue. ...
Synthesis of Tetrasubstituted Phosphorus Analogs of Aspartic Acid as Antiproliferative Agents
(MDPI, 2022-11-18)
An efficient general method for the synthesis of a wide family of α-aminophosphonate analogs of aspartic acid bearing tetrasubstituted carbons is reported through an aza-Reformatsky reaction of α-iminophosphonates, generated ...
The drawdown phase of dam decommissioning is a hot moment of gaseous carbon emissions from a temperate reservoir
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Dam decommissioning (DD) is a viable management option for thousands of ageing dams. Reservoirs are large carbon sinks, and reservoir drawdown results in important carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) emissions. We studied ...
Development and evaluation of different electroactive poly(vinylidene fluoride) architectures for endothelial cell culture
(Frontiers Media, 2022)
Tissue engineering (TE) aims to develop structures that improve or even replace the biological functions of tissues and organs. Mechanical properties, physical-chemical characteristics, biocompatibility, and biological ...
Reviewing and Discussing Graph Reduction in Edge Computing Context
(MDPI, 2022-09-16)
Much effort has been devoted to transferring efficiently different machine-learning algorithms, and especially deep neural networks, to edge devices in order to fulfill, among others, real-time, storage and energy-consumption ...
