Cybianthus anthuriophyllus (Primulaceae), a new record for the flora of Colombia: distribution modeling and conservation assessment

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Cybianthus anthuriophyllus (Primulaceae) was previously known from eastern Ecuador and northern Peru. Here we document the first confirmed occurrences of this species in Colombia and develop a distribution model based on collections from the Andean–Amazonian foothills of Caquetá, Cauca, and Putumayo departments, in order to clarify its conservation ...

Opium trade and use during the Late Bronze Age: Organic residue analysis of ceramic vessels from the burials of Tel Yehud, Israel

Archaeometry, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Organic residue analysis was conducted on various vessels from burials at Tel Yehud, Israel. The analyses led to new reliable evidence for the presence of opioid alkaloids and their decomposition products. This research revitalizes a decades‐old discussion on the presence and function of the opium trade across a cultural region of utmost ...

Hunting motivations, behaviour and forest access: Characterising wildlife hunting practices in a multi‐ethnic, forested landscape of Brunei Darussalam, Southeast Asia

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Unsustainable hunting practices can alter population dynamics, driving biodiversity declines, which leads to ‘empty forests’. Understanding hunting behaviour, including motivations for hunting and relationships with market drivers, and access to hunting grounds are important to develop affirmative policies to stem biodiversity loss.

Wild meat consumption in changing rural landscapes of Indonesian Borneo

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Wild meat can play a crucial role in the food system of rural communities residing near tropical forests. Yet, socio‐ecological changes across tropical landscapes are impacting the patterns and sustainability of meat consumption. To understand the prevalence, frequency and drivers of wild meat, domestic meat and fish consumption in this ...

In Vivo Evaluation of the Immunomodulatory and Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Crude Red Fruit (Pandanus Conoideus Lamk.) Oil

Trends in Sciences
This study evaluates the effectiveness of crude red fruit oil (CRFO) as an immunomodulator and anti-inflammatory agent through in vivo testing on Sprague Dawley (SD) rats. The red fruit oil was extracted using a dry extraction method and administered to male rats, which were divided into six treatment groups (n=5) in a completely randomized design ...

Red fruit oil increases trophoblast cell and decreases caspase -9 expression in placenta of lead exposed mice [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND Lead is able to pass through the placental barrier and interfere with fetal development. Red fruit has high antioxidant activity, due to carotenoids (pro-vitamin A), tocopherols (vitamin E) and unsaturated fatty acids.

Assessing trade‐off risk between crop production and vertebrate biodiversity in three African countries

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Governments worldwide are committed to eliminating hunger and conserving biodiversity, reflected in United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 2 (Zero Hunger) and 15 (Life on Land). Expanding agricultural lands to meet growing food demands often threatens biodiversity, creating potential trade‐offs between these objectives. To understand the
