Main Routes of Production of High-Value-Added 2,5-Furandincarboxylic Acid Using Heterogeneous Catalytic Systems
(MDPI, 2023-05-13)
The production of polymers from lignocellulosic biomass is currently one of the challenges to minimizing dependence on fossil fuels such as oil. The cellulosic fraction of this feedstock can be transformed into simple ...
Improving the Antitumor Effect of Chemotherapy with Ocoxin as a Novel Adjuvant Agent to Treat Prostate Cancer
(MDPI, 2023-05-29)
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers among men. Although many patients respond favorably to first-line treatments, castration—and chemotherapy—resistance arises after a few years, leading to metastasis. Thus, ...
Child-to-Parent Violence Specialist and Generalist Perpetrators: Risk Profile and Gender Differences
(MDPI, 2023-05-17)
Like other forms of domestic violence, child-to-parent violence (CPV) is a social and health-related problem. The identification of risk factors has preventive and therapeutic implications. This paper analyzes the risk ...
Long-term biophysical stability of nanodiamonds combined with lipid nanocarriers for non-viral gene delivery to the retina
(Elsevier, 2023-05)
Nanodiamonds were combined with niosome, and resulting formulations were named as nanodiasomes, which were evaluated in terms of physicochemical features, cellular internalization, cell viability and transfection efficiency ...
Techno-economic analysis of a combined heat and power system integrating hybrid photovoltaic-thermal collectors, a Stirling engine and energy storage
(Elsevier, 2023-05)
This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the energetic, economic and environmental performance of a micro-combined heat and power (CHP) system that comprises 29.5 m2 of hybrid photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) collectors, ...
Oil-Based Double Emulsion Microcarriers for Enhanced Stability and Bioaccessibility of Betalains and Phenolic Compounds from Opuntia stricta var. dillenii Green Extracts
(MDPI, 2023-06-01)
Opuntia cactus fruit (prickly pear flesh and agricultural residues such as peels and stalks) is an important source of bioactive compounds, including betalains and phenolic compounds. In this work, two double emulsion ...
Secondary Students’ Knowledge on Birds and Attitudes towards Conservation: Evaluation of an Environmental Education Program
(MDPI, 2023-05-09)
Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve holds a diversity of habitats and resources that are essential for migratory bird species’ conservation, and at the same time provides a rich milieu for the development of environmental education ...
Photovoltaic Local Energy Communities—Design of New Energy Exchange Modalities—Case Study: Tolosa
(MDPI, 2023-05-09)
Energy communities (ECs) can become a potential alternative to promote the fight against climate change. Technological progress and price reductions in recent years have made renewable energy-generation systems increasingly ...
Strain Virtual Sensing for Structural Health Monitoring under Variable Loads
(MDPI, 2023-05-12)
Virtual sensing is the process of using available data from real sensors in combination with a model of the system to obtain estimated data from unmeasured points. In this article, different strain virtual sensing algorithms ...
Non-Financial Disclosure: Isomorphism Effect in the Face of New Regulation
(MDPI, 2023-05-23)
The purpose of this paper is to study the mimetic isomorphism process among firms in a context of expectations of further non-financial disclosure regulation. From the new institutionalism theory approach, we study the ...
