Mushroom-derived polysaccharides as bioactive agents for skin regeneration: eva...

Mushroom polysaccharides have emerged as promising bioactive agents for enhancing skin regeneration. This study evaluates three polysaccharide-rich fractions (SB, SC, RD) obtained by hot water and alkaline extractions from Coriolus versicolor, Pleurotus ostreatus, and Hericium erinaceus. Their potential to promote skin repair was investigated by analyzing effects on cell proliferation and migration, immune modu...

Edible coatings with polysaccharides and bioactive compounds from exhausted oli...

Introduction: Exhausted or delipidified olive oil pomace (EOP) is a by-product generated from the olive pomace after air drying and hexane extraction of residual oil [1]. This by-product is rich in phenolic compounds, such as hydroxytyrosol, tyrosol and catechol, with associated properties: antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti- inflammatory, anti-diabetic, anti-carcinogenic and anti-HIV [1, 2]. Coatings and films a...

Mobile networks management is increasingly critical due to heavy communications usage by customers and complex due to the multiple technologies and systems deployed. Thus, Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are constantly looking for better software solutions and tools to help them increase network performance and manage their networks more efficiently. In this paper, we present a modular web-based software soluti...

North African dust intrusions and increased risk of respiratory diseases in Sou...

The study of dust intrusions in Portugal is still a subject on which little investigation has been made, especially in terms of their effects. Thus, this work aims to achieve two goals: firstly, to characterize the dust intrusions in the study area; and secondly, to evaluate the possible statistical association between the dust intrusion days and hospital admissions due to respiratory diseases. Dust intrusions ...
