Preservation of Mimosa tenuiflora Antiaflatoxigenic Activity Using Microencapsulation by Spray-Drying [PDF]
Mimosa tenuiflora aqueous extract (MAE) is rich in phenolic compounds. Among them, condensed tannins have been demonstrated to exhibit a strong antioxidant and antiaflatoxin B1 activities in Aspergillus flavus. Since antioxidant capacity can change with time due to environmental interactions, this study aimed to evaluate the ability of encapsulation by

Tannins quantification in barks of Mimosa tenuiflora and Acacia mearnsii
Due to its chemical complexity, there are several methodologies for vegetable tannins quantification. Thus, this work aims at quantifying both tannin and non-tannin substances present in the barks of Mimosa tenuiflora and Acacia mearnsii by two different methods.

Natural Durability of Mimosa tenuiflora and Mimosa caesalpiniaefolia Woods: Two Species from the Brazilian Dry Forest [PDF]
Abstract Knowledge of the characteristics and durability of every wood species is essential so it can be better directed for the correct harnessing. In a wood rot field test, this work aimed to determine the natural durability of timber species from the Brazilian dry forest, Mimosa tenuiflora and Mimosa caesalpiniaefolia .

Anatomical Changes to the wood of Mimosa Ophthalmocentra and Mimosa Tenuiflora when charred at different temperatures [PDF]
Wood retains most of its qualitative features when charred, but the dimensions and appearance of the cells change in various ways. Wood density, anatomical structure, moisture content, duration and temperature all influence wood behaviour when charred. This paper explores the qualitative changes that take place in the wood of Mimosa ophthalmocentra and

The dark web trades wildlife, but mostly for use as drugs
Abstract Contemporary wildlife trade is massively facilitated by the Internet. By design, the dark web is one layer of the Internet that is difficult to monitor and continues to lack thorough investigation. Here, we accessed a comprehensive database of dark web marketplaces to search across c. 2 million dark web advertisements over 5 years using c. 7 k
