Background: The presence of pesticide residues and endocrine disruptors in sources used for drinking water abstraction has become a significant concern nowadays [1,2]. These substances pose risks to the environment, biodiversity, and public health. Consequently, monitoring these compounds in drinking water is crucial to maintaining their quality and safety. Therefore, there is a need to develop sensitive analyt...
Introduction: Nail infections, particularly onychomycosis, affect approximately 5.5% of the global population, significantly impacting quality of life. Beyond aesthetic concerns, these conditions cause discomfort, functional impairment, and psychological distress. A major challenge in treatment is the low transungual permeability of the nail plate, restricting drug penetration and reducing therapeutic efficacy....

Biosimilars are complex proteins of high molecular weight, produced and purified from biologic products, in comparison to generic drugs, biosimilars are biologically similar to the reference drug while a generic is molecularly identical. We focus on the various biosimilar low weight heparins pretending to demonstrate which criteria were chosen to assure the efficacy and safety of these drugs when they were intr...
Neste artigo realizou-se uma abordagem à ocupação Pré-histórica do Cabeço de Caria Talaia, no concelho do Sabugal (Portugal). A intervenção arqueológica desenvolvida em 2008 e 2009 determinou a natureza e a cronologia dessa ocupação, de uma fase avançada entre o Bronze Médio e os inícios do Bronze Final. Apesar do mau estado de conservação das estruturas, os trabalhos permitiram assinalar um local de habitação ...
