The niche variation hypothesis predicts hunting returns across human cultures
The niche variation hypothesis (NVH) proposes that a broader population niche arises from greater individual specialization. Despite decades of empirical testing, research remains constrained to non‐human foragers, and the generality of NVH may extend beyond wildlife. The analysis of > 8000 hunting records from 12 human societies across four continents

Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) plays a pivotal role in facilitating tumour development, invasiveness, metastasis, and immunoevasive processes through dynamic ECM remodelling processes. Testican‐1 (SPOCK1), an excretory matricellular proteoglycan, is suggested to exert a role in the facilitation of ECM remodelling processes through interacting ...

Biosurfactant was produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa using andiroba waste from Amazonia. A biosurfactant–alginate composite (Alg/BioS) was successfully synthesized via ionotropic gelation, and achieved up to 70% Cr6+ removal from water. Abstract Environmental contamination by heavy metals represents a significant challenge due to their persistence in ...
