The gut of fish belongs to the most essential barriers that mark the border between the organism and its surrounding environment. The pivotal barrier function, allowing to absorb nutrients from the diet while simultaneously protecting the organism from pat ...
Ecological benefits associated with plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) inoculants offer a promising integrated nutrient management option to counteract plant nitrogen (N) deficiency. We performed field experiments to evaluate the effect of integra ...
A growing number of technologies are being developed in order to produce different high added value products, such as phytochemicals, ethanol and other chemicals from biomass, representing an important trend that needs to be evaluated. The use of pressuriz ...
A novel Cinchona alkaloid-catalyzed enantioselective conjugate addition of alpha-alkyl substituted alpha-nitroacetates to phenyl vinyl selenone was developed. The resulting enantio-enriched alpha,alpha-dialkyl substituted alpha-nitroacetates were subsequen ...
The animal gut plays a central role in tackling two common ecological challenges, nutrient shortage and food-borne parasites, the former by efficient digestion and nutrient absorption, the latter by acting as an immune organ and a barrier. It remains unkno ...
