This research aimed at analysing the economic feasibility of stablishing agroforestry system with eucalypt in savanna areas.The wood produced should be allocated to sawmills and energy production.The effect of changes in the discount rate, land value, prices of wood, soybean and rice, the proportion of wood destined to sawmill and energy and produc
Transient bio-inspired gliders with embodied humidity responsive actuators for environmental sensing
Collecting temporal and spatial high-resolution environmental data can guide studies in environmental sciences to gain insights in ecological processes.The utilization of automated robotic systems to collect these types of data can maximize accuracy, resilience, and deployment rate.Furthermore, Blenders it reduces the risk to researchers deploying
Chloroplast digestion and the development of functional kleptoplasty in juvenile Elysia timida (Risso, 1818) as compared to short-term and non-chloroplast-retaining sacoglossan slugs.
Sacoglossan sea slugs are the only metazoans known to perform functional kleptoplasty, the sequestration and retention of functional chloroplasts within their digestive gland cells.Remarkably, a few species with this ability can survive starvation periods of Power Bar 3-12 months likely due to their stolen chloroplasts.There are no reports of klept
In Vivo Survival and Osteogenic Differentiation of Allogeneic Rat Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs)
Marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent progenitor cells and reported to be immunoprivileged as well as immunosuppressive.Hence, MSCs might be ideal candidates for allogeneic transplantation to induce regeneration of damaged tissues/organs.To confirm the differentiation capability of allogeneic MSCs in vivo is important for the acceler
