Introduction: Admission to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is considered a stressful phenomenon, not only due to physical issues, but also due to the cognitive and social disabilities resulting from hospitalization. The family is an important element for patients admitted to the ICU and should be a concern for nurses in these units, considering the existence of benefits for both the family and the patient. Objecti...
Previous research demonstrated that solid-state fermentation (SSF) of distiller's dried grains with solubles (DDGS) by Aspergillus ibericus improved protein, reduced neutral and acid detergent fiber levels, and added phenolic compounds, xylanase, and cellulase. Fermentation of DDGS also increased protein, lipids, energy, and starch digestibility. This study evaluated the effects of unfermented and fermented DDG...
Replacing traditional agricultural ingredients with biotechnologically improved agro-industry by-products in fish diets promotes sustainable aquaculture, reduces production costs and carbon footprint, and promotes a circular economy. Brewers spent grain (BSG) is one such by-product. Solid-state fermentation (SSF) of BSG with Aspergillus ibericus enhances its nutritional value and digestibility for European seab...
Em unidades de cuidados intensivos, onde a complexidade e o risco são elevados, a comunicação eficaz entre enfermeiros é vital .Nas passagens de turno e transferências de doentes, o uso de métodos padronizados como o ISBAR aumenta a segurança e reduz erros, ao estruturar a informação em: Identificação, Situação, Antecedentes, Avaliação e Recomendações(Fengetal.,2018).
Using lignocellulosic biomass hydrolysate as a renewable and abundant feedstock for microbial lipids production is a sustainable and economic high-potential approach. This study investigated the potential of the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to produce lipids-rich biomass from eucalyptus bark hydrolysate (EBH) obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of the biomass pretreated by steam explosion. The effect of EB...
This study assessed the effects of dietary inclusion of solid-state fermented (SSF) brewers spent grain (BSG) with Aspergillus ibericus on nutrient and energy digestibility, digestive enzyme activity, and intestinal histomorphology of juvenile European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax). Five diets (18% crude lipids and 45% crude protein) were formulated, including a control diet (without BSG), two diets with 10% a...

This article describes the adaptation of the MindSerena Adventure program, initially designed for basic education, for higher education students. This program is a component of the MindSerena model, based on the principles of Mindfulness and sustainable development. Six students from the Escola Superior de Saúde, do Instituto Politécnico de Setúbal, participated in this study. To evaluate its effect, a qualitat...

Eucalyptus bark hydrolysate (EBH) is an abundant and renewable source of fermentable sugars for microbial lipids production. However, microorganisms need to be tolerant to antimicrobial compounds present in these type-hydrolysates and formed during lignocellulosic biomass processing. The ability of Y. lipolytica W29 to grow and produce lipids in undetoxified and undiluted EBH was evaluated in stirred tank biore...
