The Principle of Similitude in Biology: From Allometry to the Formulation of Dimensionally Homogenous `Laws'

open access: yes, 2019
Meaningful laws of nature must be independent of the units employed to measure the variables. The principle of similitude (Rayleigh 1915) or dimensional homogeneity, states that only commensurable quantities (ones having the same dimension) may be ...

Sustainable Walnut Shell‐Filled Polylactic Acid–Hydroxyapatite Hybrid Coatings for Enhanced Corrosion Resistance and Bioactivity of Magnesium Biomaterials

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Due to the high corrosion rate and limited biocompatibility of commonly used magnesium (Mg) and its alloys, current studies have focused on surface modification techniques. In this study, which is aimed at overcoming these obstacles in biomedical applications, hybrid coatings of PLA‐HA‐Walnut shell (Wshell) were successfully applied to Mg ...

Intestinal responses in pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) exposed to fasting and refeeding nutritional management

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Fasting is a practice in the aquaculture industry that aims to reduce feed costs. This practice can affect the gastrointestinal system of fish. The intestine plays a pivotal role in the nutrition and overall health of fishes. The present study sought to evaluate the effects of fasting and refeeding on body weight, intestine somatic index (ISI),
