Dating of freshwater fossil shells in the archaeological sites at Cliff Deva Thoud-Ta Thoud-Yai, Songkhla Province of Thailand with thermoluminescence [PDF]
Archaeological evidence indicates that a group of humans arrived in the southern region of Thailand around 40,000 years ago. This hypothesis is based on the discovery of human and animal bones, beads, and ceramics, as well as fossilized freshwater ...

Characterization of animal shells-derived hydroxyapatite reinforced epoxy bio-composites
Environmental issues have geared the interest of researchers toward the use of naturally occurring materials for various applications in recent times. Hydroxyapatite particles (HAp) for biomedical applications were synthesized from egg and snail shells and used for the fabrication of bio-composites in this research.

Effect of grass–clover forage and whole-wheat feeding on the sensory quality of eggs [PDF]
BACKGROUND: A sensory panel evaluated the sensory profile of eggs from hens from three experimental systems: (1) an indoor system × normal layer diet (InL), (2) a grass–clover forage system × normal layer diet (GrL), and (3) a grass–clover forage system

Understanding Viral Transmission Behavior via Protein Intrinsic Disorder Prediction: Coronaviruses [PDF]
Besides being a common threat to farm animals and poultry, coronavirus (CoV) was responsible for the human severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic in 2002-4. However, many aspects of CoV behavior, including modes of its transmission, are yet to

Systematic Review of Effectiveness of Chitosan as a Biofunctionalizer of Titanium Implants
Chitosan is a natural polysaccharide extracted from the shells of crustaceans that has been proposed as a scaffold in tissue engineering. Certain studies have proven a greater osseointegration of titanium surfaces that are functionalized with chitosan ...

A new index for quantifying the ornamentational complexity of animals with shells
AbstractMorphological complexity reflects the biological structure of an organism and is closely linked to its associated functions and phylogenetics. In animals with shells, ornamentation is an important characteristic of morphological complexity, and it has various functions. However, because of the variations in type, shape, density, and strength of

Bacteriophage Encapsulation in pH-Responsive Core-Shell Capsules as an Animal Feed Additive
Increasing antibiotic resistance in bacteria that cause zoonotic infections is a major problem for farmers rearing animals for food as well as for consumers who eat the contaminated meat resulting in food-borne infections. Bacteriophages incorporated in animal feed may help reduce carriage and infections in animals including chickens and pigs.
