Abstract figure legend There has been controversy about the structural (capillary) response of skeletal muscle to altered O2 status, involving decreased supply (hypoxia) or increased demand (activity). Here we demonstrate that seven days of activation of skeletal muscle by indirect electrical stimulation led to significant expansion of the capillary ...

Nanoshell Fabrication Techniques for Probiotic Encapsulation: A Comprehensive Review
ABSTRACT Probiotics, beneficial microorganisms, confer numerous health benefits when administered. However, their efficacy is hindered by harsh gut conditions, including acidity, bile acids, and enzymatic degradation. To overcome these challenges, encapsulation and nanoshell technology have emerged as a pivotal strategy to enhance probiotic stability ...

Cannabis is cultivated for its flowers, which are abundant in volatile terpenes that impact sensory and therapeutic properties. These compounds are therefore targets for enhancement during cultivation. One such strategy is the provision of biostimulants, such as the long‐chain primary alcohol triacontanol (TRIA), which may be sourced from plant waxes ...

A Fast Method for Selecting Bio Sourced Materials of Interest in a Candle Formulation
ABSTRACT As consumer demand shifts towards more sustainable and nontoxic alternatives, the candle industry is exploring unconventional bio‐based and recycled materials as substitutes for paraffin. Four raw materials, that is rice bran wax (RBW), sugarcane wax (SCW), hydrogenated rapeseed oil (HRO), and waste cooking oil (WCO) were assessed based on ...

ABSTRACT Quantitative and perceptual studies have been used to define and model sustainable tourist behaviour in past years, but few studies have undertaken qualitative research of actual behaviour to delve deeper into understanding the different classifications of such behaviour. This research employed a three‐phase design, comprising a pretrip survey,
