Natural polymer‐based hydrogels: Types, functionality, food applications, environmental significance and future perspectives: An updated review

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 84-105, March 2025.
Abstract Hydrogels of natural, synthetic and hybrid origin are used in various food applications in modern days. Among them, natural polymer‐based hydrogels are becoming increasingly popular in the food industry owing to their structural diversity, biocompatibility, affordability, biodegradability and non‐toxicity compared to their synthetic ...

Myxomycetes associated with Cactaceae in sub-humid (agreste) and semi-arid (sertão) regions of Pernambuco, Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesBiotemas, 2011
Studies that indicate the presence of Myxomycetes in arid and semi-arid regions of the planet have revealed new taxons and high species diversity. In those environments, the Myxomycetes occupy special microhabitats like those offered by succulent plants.

Using transition systems to describe and predict the behaviour of structured excitable media

open access: yes, 2012
I show how transition systems can be applied to the naturally concurrent behaviour of excitable media. I consider structured excitable media, in which excitations are constrained to propagate only in defined narrow channels, and cannot propagate ...

P-bRS: A Physarum-Based Routing Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
Routing in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is an extremely challenging issue due to the features of WSNs. Inspired by the large and single-celled amoeboid organism, slime mold Physarum polycephalum, we establish a novel selecting next hop model (SNH ...
