Insects have a great potential to be used as feedstocks for biodiesel production due their intrinsic high lipid contents. In particular, from black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) is promising because of its advantages in engineering aspects such rapid proliferation, more storage long-development time larva stage, self-separation organic waste. this study, was synthesized through (trans)esterificatio...

Como respuesta a la propagación de pandemia COVID-19, Argentina implementó el aislamiento social, preventivo y obligatorio (ASPO). Este estudio analizó factores asociados con cumplimiento satisfacción ASPO 30 días su implementación en e indagó las respuestas emocionales autoinformadas esta medida. Una encuesta línea, diseñada ad hoc, fue respondida por 2965 participantes los 24 distritos del pa...

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been reported to affect malaria intervention strategies, the suspension of elimination programs, and publication research. We compared differences in authorship, affiliations, countries, funding sources, article types, keywords, languages, citations between studies published before during COVID-19 pandemic. The searches were performed online using Scopus ...

Motivated by the experimental progress in study of heavy baryons, we investigate mass spectra strange single baryons $\lambda$-mode, where relativistic quark model and infinitesimally shifted Gaussian basis function method are employed. It is shown that data can be well reproduced predicted masses. The root mean square radii radial probability density distributions wave functions analyzed detai...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Two aspects of stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) require clarification: First, are tumoricidal mechanisms at high-doses/fraction the same as at lower doses? Second, is single high-dose SRT treatment advantageous for tumor control (TCP) vs. multi-fraction SRT? MATERIAL AND METHODS We analyzed published TCP data for lung tumors or brain metastases from 2965 SRT patients, co...

BACKGROUND There is no consensus on whether screening titles alone or titles and abstracts together is the preferable strategy for inclusion of articles in a systematic review. METHODS TWO METHODS OF SCREENING ARTICLES FOR INCLUSION IN A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW WERE COMPARED: titles first versus titles and abstracts simultaneously. Each citation found in MEDLINE or Embase was reviewed by two physic...

The Parenting Bonding Instrument (PBI) is a widely used battery to assess parenting behaviours. Although, it was originally developed to measure two attributes of parenting behaviour, care and overprotection, there is still disagreement about the factor structure of the scale. The aim of the present study is to examine the fit of different factorial structures of the PBI in a Japanese college s...

The objective of this study was to describe the population structure and inbreeding, and to quantify their effects on weights at different ages of Mehraban sheep in Iran. The analysis was based on the pedigree information of 26990 animals and 10278 body weight records from birth to yearling age. Data and pedigree information were collected during 1994 to 2011 by the breeding station of Mehraban...

Confocal Raman spectroscopy has been implemented within the molecularly thin films of a surface forces apparatus. Applying this technique to an initial system, we investigate the confinement and shear-induced changes in the Raman spectra of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) liquids confined between atomically smooth mica surfaces at thicknesses less than the unperturbed radius of gyration of the po...
