Nanoparticles From Infusion Beverage Wastes and Their Effect on PLA/PHB Plasticized Composite Behavior

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Schematic overview of the valorization of yerba mate and black tea waste into lignocellulosic nanoparticles (nYM, nBT), incorporated into PLA/PHB films plasticized with maleinized corn oil (MCO). The resulting bionanocomposites exhibited enhanced barrier and mechanical performance, making them suitable for biodegradable food packaging applications ...

Growth and Characterization of a CoTPP/NiO(001) Antiferromagnetic Spinterface

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
Co tetraphenyl porphyrins self‐assembled monolayer on NiO form an antiferromagnetic spiterface, in which the paramagnetic molecules inherit a long‐range magnetic ordering from the interaction with the antiferromagnetic oxide. These kind of system combines the versatility of molecules with the potential of antiferromagnets for high‐speed and high ...

Morphology and paleoecology of a hybodontiform with serrated teeth, Priohybodus arambourgi, from the Late Jurassic of northeastern Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hybodontiformes was a diverse, successful, and important group of shark‐like chondrichthyans known from a variety of ecosystems. Some representatives of the order had a wide palaeogeographic distribution, as is the case with Priohybodus arambourgi. With a multicuspidate crown, P. arambourgi was the first hybodontiform to develop fully serrated

Inside the head of Crotalus durissus LINNAEUS, 1758 (Serpentes, Viperidae, Crotalinae): Macroscopic description of the brain with ontogenetic insights

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuroanatomy studies in vertebrates have garnered significant attention in recent years, particularly driven by advancements in computerized tomography imaging techniques. Nonetheless, these advancements remain largely constrained to specific vertebrate groups, notably mammals, birds, and fish, leaving studies in reptiles at an incipient stage.

Comparative and functional anatomy of masticatory muscles and bite force in opossums (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

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

The 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),
