Underestimating the toxicological challenges associated with the use of herbal medicinal products in developing countries. [PDF]

open access: yesBiomed Res Int, 2013
Various reports suggest a high contemporaneous prevalence of herb‐drug use in both developed and developing countries. The World Health Organisation indicates that 80% of the Asian and African populations rely on traditional medicine as the primary method for their health care needs.

Does tenure influence sustainable use? The ecological impacts of harvesting baobab (Adansonia digitata)

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 4, Page 1246-1256, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Using the lens of the baobab tree, this paper explores the ecological outcomes of different tenurial arrangements and implications for resource sustainability. With the emergence of markets for baobab products, a central concern is to confirm whether use patterns differ across different tenure regimes and, if so, their ecological outcomes. The

Spatial turnover of fungi and partner choice shape mycorrhizal networks in epiphytic orchids

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 110, Issue 11, Page 2568-2584, November 2022., 2022
Tropical tree barks can host dense colonies of epiphytic orchids of varying species and growth stages. We showed that these orchids, illustrated here by a small colony of Angraecum pectinatum in the study area, can share their fungi, forming complex mycorrhizal networks in the epiphytic habitat.

Effects of genetic origin on phenotypic divergence in Brook Trout populations stocked with domestic fish

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 11, Issue 5, May 2020., 2020
Abstract Phenotypic changes due to human activities are occurring at a far greater speed than those originating from natural causes in animal populations. For instance, phenotypic divergence among individuals may arise in populations supplemented with farm‐reared fish that are known to display different phenotypes from those of wild individuals because

Stocking impacts the expression of candidate genes and physiological condition in introgressed brook charr (Salvelinus fontinalis) populations

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 6, Issue 2, Page 393-407, February 2013., 2013
Abstract Translocation of plants and animal populations between environments is one of the major forms of anthropogenic perturbation experienced by pristine populations, and consequently, human‐mediated hybridization by stocking practices between wild and exogenous conspecifics is of increasing concern.

In‐vivo pilot study to assess a new plant‐based cosmetic formulation containing Ziziphus joazeiro bark extract and Apium graveolens seed extract for the improvement of dandruff while enhancing scalp microbiome balance and barrier function in subjects with oily to dry sensitive scalps

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 51-69, February 2026.
This study comprising dermatological as well as microbiome analysis indicates that mild‐to‐moderate dandruff symptoms can successfully be reduced with a plant‐based shampoo by restoring the bacterial scalp microbiome balance, suggesting a ‘microbiome‐friendly’ formulation tolerated excellently for oily scalp and sensitive scalp.

Snake and Moon ‘Right Way Marriage’ Stories on Stone and Bark

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, Volume 60, Issue 2, Page 78-86, July 2025.
ABSTRACT In northwest Australia, boab trees hold significant cultural values for First Nations people. Their leaves, bark, roots and nuts are important as traditional resources for food, medicine, fibre, water and shade and serve as reference points in the landscape. Some of the tree trunks are inscribed with images and symbols which tell of events and

Opinion and report of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) relating to an analysis of the health risks associated with exposure to caterpillars with stinging hairs and the development of management recommendations

open access: yesFood Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Several species of Lepidoptera with caterpillars bearing urticating hairs are increasing their range in metropolitan France from year to year, such as the pine processionary (Thaumetopoea pityocampa Denis et Schiffermüller 1775) whose presence was historically limited to the south of France, and which is gradually being observed in the north ...

Yvonne Loriod and the Practice of Analytical Memory

open access: yesMusic Analysis, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 331-379, October 2024.
ABSTRACT The usefulness of music analysis in memorisation is well attested in music‐performance scholarship, even though the methods and processes of analytical memorisation are rarely documented and difficult to assess, especially in a historical perspective.
