Chemical signatures in fin spine edge of Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) can serve as habitat markers of geographically distinct marine environments
(Elsevier, 2022-11)
Chemical fingerprints in otoliths are commonly used as natural habitat markers in fishes. Alternatively, the first dorsal fin spine can provide valuable chemical information and may be more suitable for studying (i) ...
Efficient AntiMycolata Agents by Increasing the Lipophilicity of Known Antibiotics through Multicomponent Reactions
(MDPI, 2023-01-03)
New antibiotic agents were prepared using Povarov and Ugi multicomponent reactions upon the known drugs sulfadoxine and dapsone. The prepared derivatives, with increased lipophilicity, showed improved efficiency against ...
Gel-Free Tools for Quick and Simple Screening of Anti-Topoisomerase 1 Compounds
(MDPI, 2023-04-27)
With the increasing need for effective compounds against cancer or pathogen-borne diseases, the development of new tools to investigate the enzymatic activity of biomarkers is necessary. Among these biomarkers are DNA ...
Mealworm Frass as a Potential Organic Fertilizer in Synergy with PGP-Based Biostimulant for Lettuce Plants
(MDPI, 2023-04-28)
This study explores the potential use of frass, the larval excrement residue obtained from mealworm rearing, as organic fertilizer for crops. Its high organic matter content means that its joint application with a biostimulant ...
The Role of Microplastics in Marine Pathogen Transmission: Retrospective Regression Analysis, Experimental Design, and Disease Modelling
(MDPI, 2022-11-30)
Marine wildlife and aquaculture species can accumulate large amounts of marine microplastic debris (MMD) (<1 mm) carrying pathogens, thus threatening the health of marine ecosystems and posing a risk to food safety and ...
Non-Adherence in Adult Male Patients with Community-Acquired Pneumonia: Relative Forgiveness of Amoxicillin versus Respiratory Fluoroquinolones
(MDPI, 2023-05-01)
The consequences of non-adherence to treatment (NAT) on antimicrobial efficacy may depend on drug forgiveness—a property that should account for pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) as well as interindividual ...
Modelling the Effect of the Interaction between Vaccination and Nonpharmaceutical Measures on COVID-19 Incidence
(Cambridge University Press, 2022-03-31)
Since December 2019, the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread rapidly from Wuhan (China) across the globe, affecting more than 200 countries by mid-2021, with over 190M reported ...
Gamifying Physics Laboratory Work Increases Motivation and Enhances Acquisition of the Skills Required for Application of the Scientific Method
(MDPI, 2023-03-14)
Although increasing student motivation is widely accepted to enhance learning outcomes, this relationship has scarcely been studied quantitatively. Therefore, this study aimed to address this knowledge gap by exploring the ...
Viscosity Approximation Methods for * −Nonexpansive Multi-Valued Mappings in Convex Metric Spaces
(MDPI, 2020-01-17)
In this paper, we prove convergence theorems for viscosity approximation processes involving * −nonexpansive multi-valued mappings in complete convex metric spaces. We also consider finite and infinite families of such ...
Zeolites as Ingredients of Medicinal Products
(MDPI, 2023-04-28)
Development of new medicinal products for particular therapeutic treatment or for better manipulations with better quality and less side effects are possible as a result of advanced inorganic and organic materials application, ...
