BACKGROUND: Bariatric surgery (BS) is the most effective long-term therapy for the treatment of severe obesity. Benefits of BS include a reduction of overall and cardiovascular mortality, incidence of first occurrence of ...
Effect of competition between Aphytis chrysomphali (Mercet) and A. melinus (Hymenoptera:Aphelinidae), on their coexistence and efficacy as biological control agents of Aonidiella aurantii (Hemiptera: Diaspididae)
The California red scale Aonidiella aurantii is considered a key citrus pest. Parasitoids of genus Aphytis are the most important natural enemies of A. aurantii. In the Mediterranean basin, the native A. chrysomphali and ...
Effect of compounds from agricultural biodegradable plastics on the environment and on plant development
Els encoixinats plàstics agrícoles són una peça fonamental del sistema agrícola, contribuint a fer front a la demanda d'alimentació de la creixent població mundial. El seu ús incrementa la producció, precocitat i qualitat ...
Effect of compression and decompression rates of high hydrostatic pressure processing on inactivation of microorganisms in different matrices
El efecto de las tasas de compresión y descompresión a altas presiones hidrostáticas (HHP) en la inactivación de bacterias ha sido poco estudiado. La literatura disponible presenta resultados contradictorios. Este estudio ...
Effect of Cpt1a deletion in the mediobasal hypothalamus in response to physical activity and aging
[eng] Food intake and energy homeostasis are tightly regulated by the brain through a complex neuronal network located in the hypothalamus. Within this region, the mediobasal hypothalamus (MBH) acts as an interface between ...
