Comparative Analysis of Selected Physicochemical Properties of Pozzolan Portland and MTA‐Based Cements

open access: yesInternational Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Physicochemical properties of pozzolan Portland cement were compared to ProRoot MTA and MTA BIO. To test the pH, the samples were immersed in distilled water for different periods of time. After the pH analysis, the sample was retained in the plastic recipient, and the electrical conductivity of the solution was measured. The solubility and radiopacity

Mapping nut‐cracking in a new population of wild capuchin monkeys (Sapajus libidinosus) at Ubajara National Park, Brazil

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 86, Issue 4, April 2024.
Capuchin monkeys (Sapajus libidinosus) at Ubajara National Park, Brazil, customarily use hammerstones to crack open at least two species of palm nuts, macaúba and babaçu. We systematically surveyed stone tool use sites in this park, recording and measuring stone tools, processed foods, and available lithic resources.
