Synergistic Enhancement of Antioxidant Activity in Arbutus unedo Leaf Extract by Biological Fluids: Implications for Functional and Nutraceutical Applications

open access: yesBiotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examined the effect of biological fluids (saliva, blood plasma, and urine) on the antioxidant capacity of an aqueous extract derived from Arbutus unedo leaves. The extract displayed a concentration‐dependent reducing activity in the ferric reducing power assay (IC50 = 292 ± 7.54 µg/mL) and phosphomolybdenum assays (IC50 = 461.67 ± 4.

Chromosome-level reference genome assembly of the gyrfalcon (Falco rusticolus) and population genomics offer insights into the falcon population in Mongolia

open access: yesScientific Reports
The taxonomic classification of a falcon population found in the Mongolian Altai region in Asia has been heavily debated for two centuries and previous studies have been inconclusive, hindering a more informed conservation approach.

Application of the novint falcon haptic device as an actuator in real-time control

open access: yes, 2011
"The two goals of this thesis are A) to develop an embedded system whose purpose is to control the Novint Falcon as a robot, and B) to develop a control experiment that demonstrates the use the Novint Falcon as a robotic actuator.

Classifying avian drinking behaviour: ecological insights and implications in a changing world

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental currency of life, and its availability significantly influences animal behaviour, physiology and distributions. However, our knowledge around the dependence on water for drinking and the direct and indirect mechanisms driving related behaviours remains partial in the context of changing climates. Here, we review patterns

Counting cases, conserving species: addressing highly pathogenic avian influenza in wildlife

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has become a critical threat to wildlife, shifting from a seasonal epizootic to a persistent, year‐round panzootic with global consequences. Here, we summarise the origin, evolutionary mechanisms, and expanding host range of the current H5N1 virus (clade 2.3.4.4b) and assess its impact on wildlife. Over

Exploring the Climatic Niche Evolution of the Genus Falco (Aves: Falconidae) in Europe

open access: yesBiology
By integrating species distribution modeling techniques, phylogenetic comparative methods, and climatic data, we analyzed how European falcon climatic niches have changed over evolutionary time in order to understand their tempo and mode of evolution and

Ratiometric pH‐Responsive and Biomimetic Microparticles for Quantitative Monitoring of Phagosomal Acidification

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A series of hydrosoluble BODIPY pH probes allows building biomimetic pH sensors based on micrometric oil‐in‐water droplets. The ratiometric fluorescence output offers quantitative information on the evolution of pH during phagosome maturation. ABSTRACT We present a modular biomimetic fluorescent sensing platform designed to precisely interrogate the ...
