Physicochemical Properties and Cellular Uptake of Astaxanthin-Loaded Emulsions

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Astaxanthin, a natural pigment carotenoid, is well known for its potential benefits to human health. However, its applications in the food industry are limited, due to its poor water-solubility and chemical instability.

From Reduction To Remediation: Sustainable Use of Algal Fibrous Mats for Silver Nanoparticle Synthesis and Dye Removal

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Biogenically synthesized Ag nanoparticles exhibit antibacterial activity. Post‐reduction, the Ag‐decorated algal nanofibers, potentially a secondary pollutant, are repurposed for photocatalytic dye degradation, highlighting a sustainable approach for both nanoparticle synthesis and environmental remediation.

A narrative literature review about alpha‐lipoic acid role in dry eye and ocular surface disease

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Ocular surface diseases (OSD) include various conditions that affect the eye's surface, causing discomfort and pain. One such condition, dry eye disease (DED), is a multifactorial disorder that significantly impacts patients' quality of life, with prevalence rates ranging from 5% to 50% and higher incidence in women.

Animal movement in space and time: the role of thermal barriers and individual variation in modulating predator–prey overlap in stratified lakes

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Animal movements play a crucial role in ecosystem dynamics, regulating numerous functions from nutrient cycling to habitat coupling. Therefore, any factor modulating animal behavior (e.g. physiology and individual preferences in habitat choice) has the potential to influence ecosystem functioning.
