The challenge lies in increasing the nutritional value of extruded products while maintaining the quality of expansion. Goji berries are rich in bioactive compounds, such as polysaccharides,...
The purpose of this study was to perform the clinical, histopathologic and biochemical evaluation of the effects of intraperitoneally (IP) administered dexpanthenol (dxp) on colonic anastomosis healing in rats. The study was conducted on a total of 28 rats divided into four groups comprising seven rats each. Group I was designated as the control group, group II as the dxp group, group III as the anastomosis...
We analyzed the differences in composition, richness, and abundance of birds in forest fragments of the Atlantic Forest in the São Paulo State, Brazil, and we demonstrated the variations in richness and abundance of birds between different trophic guilds. We used point counts to characterize the avifauna. Sampling was conducted in two seasons: summer and winter of 2020 in a total of 18 hours distributed...
Butterflies are very sensitive insects for climate change, environmental pollution. Butterflies are model for most of the studies which focus on the effect of climate change on the species richness, change in abundance, species distribution, population size; it is also because of butterflies are umbrella species,. The conservation programme of butterflies will surely help to conserve other species...
