The plasticisation model of dye diffusion: Part 6

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Previously published data reported for the temperature dependency of the exhaustion of a mordant dye and acid dye, as well as both the exhaustion and fixation of a reactive dye and adsorption of a direct dye, on three different types of wool substrate, over a diverse range of dyeing temperatures and conditions, were re‐evaluated using the ...

The plasticisation model of dye diffusion: Part 8

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Re‐evaluation using the Williams–Landel–Ferry equation, of exhaustion/rate of dyeing/fixation data previously reported for and acid dye, natural dye and two reactive dyes on three different types of silk substrate revealed that thermally activated dye diffusivity is governed by the thermally regulated structural relaxation times of the ...

Effect of genotype and sex on fiber growth rate of alpacas for their first year of fleece production

open access: yes, 2014
The sale of alpaca fiber is the main income for thousands of families in the Central Andes of Peru. Little information exists on the fiber length growth rate of alpaca (FLG), especially throughout their first year of life when the fiber is most valuable.

Bacterial Communities in the Alpaca Gastrointestinal Tract Vary With Diet and Body Site

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Gut -associated microbes (‘gut microbiota’) impact the nutrition of their hosts, especially in ruminants and pseudoruminants that consume high-cellulose diets. Examples include the pseudoruminant alpaca.

Reduced Dietary Protein Induces Changes in the Dental Proteome

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 346, Issue 2, Page 107-127, March 2026.
Low dietary protein (10%) from normal (20%) does change protein expression in tooth proteome and alter developmental pathways. Among the significant protein expressions changes are actin‐based myosins, tooth, and bone development proteins. Perplexingly tooth size is not altered, suggesting more nuanced phenotypic response to low dietary protein in ...

Along the Silenced Footsteps of Latin American Pastoralists: From Mexico to Argentina, a Journey Through Pastoral Systems in Latin America

open access: yesThe Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology, Volume 31, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Pastoralism worldwide faces a complex landscape of increased pressures and exclusion. Beyond ecological and economic challenges, pastoralists suffer eroding cultural identity, limited generational renewal, and political marginalization. Yet pastoral livelihoods are increasingly recognized as stewards of sustainable futures and amongst the best

Camelids and sustainable development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Face to the global changes and new climatic constraints, the camel farming is confronted to new challenges, first to contribute to the “livestock revolution” (for reaching the requirements of a growing human population), especially in remote places of ...

Methane Emissions From Dairy Goats Can Be Measured Using Cattle Respiration Chambers

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
Reducing methane emissions from dairy goat production is essential for meeting sustainability targets and consumer expectations. Accurate quantification of enteric methane per unit of feed intake is a prerequisite for developing emission inventories and mitigation strategies.

Estudio electrocardiografía en estación y de cúbito lateral derecho en crías de alpaca (Vicugna pacos) [PDF]

open access: yes
The aim of the study was to determine the electrocardiographic parameters in both station and right lateral decubitus positions in baby alpacas. The work was done in 30 alpacas (17 males and 13 females) of 60 days old, from the communities alpaqueras ...

Alpaca: intermittent execution without checkpoints [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the ACM on Programming Languages, 2017
The emergence of energy harvesting devices creates the potential for batteryless sensing and computing devices. Such devices operate only intermittently, as energy is available, presenting a number of challenges for software developers. Programmers face a complex design space requiring reasoning about energy, memory consistency, and forward progress ...
