Characterization of 24 years of amputations performed in Portugal (2000-2023)
Matos, José Pedro; Matos, Mariana; Ramos, M. Rosário; Ricardo, Diogo; Carolino, ElisabeteAmputation, whether surgical or traumatic, entails the loss of a body segment due to irreparable injury caused by trauma, vascular conditions, or other pathologies. Among individuals with diabetes, amputation remains one of the most feared and recognized outcomes. However, early diagnosis and timely intervention could prevent approximately 50% of diabetes-related amputations and ulcerations. This retrospective ...

Tailoring P(3HB-co-3HV) Properties by Post-Production Blending
Viana, Jorge M. P.; Matos, Mariana; Hilliou, L.; Reis, Maria[Excerpt] Introduction: Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are promising biopolymers for replacing less eco friendly polymers, although their price is still higher. PHAs can be produced via mixed microbial cultures (MMC) from carbon-rich waste to reduce costs; however, this process has challenges due to the variability in waste composition and seasonality [1]. The most common PHA copolymer produced from wastes by MMC...

Can biomass mastication assist the downstreaming of polyhydroxyalkanoates produ...
Souza, Hiléia Karla Silva; Matos, Mariana; Reis, Maria A. M.; Covas, J. A.; Hilliou, L.Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are natural polyesters which biodegrade in soils and oceans but have more than double the cost of comparable oil-based polymers. PHA downstreaming from its biomass represents 50% of its overall cost. Here, in an attempt to assist downstreaming, mastication of wet biomasses is tested as a new mechanical continuous biomass pretreatment with potential for industrial upscaling. Downstre...
Development of a layered bacterial nanocellulose-PHBV composite for food packaging
Silva, Francisco Almeida Garrett Soares; Matos, Mariana; Dourado, Fernando; Reis, Maria A. M.; Branco, Pedro C.; Poças, Fátima; Gama, F. M.BACKGROUND Most of the current materials used in food packaging are synthetic and non-degradable, raising environmental issues derived from the accumulation of plastics in landfills/waterways. The food industry increasingly needs eco-friendly sustainable materials that meet the food packaging requirements. Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC), a biopolymer obtained by fermentation, offers very good mechanical properti...
Ecological Flexibility of Propithecus edwardsi in Two Forest Habitats with Dife...
Matos, Mariana; Wright, Patricia; Fernandes, TeresaIn the face of global change, where anthropogenic practices, such as logging, alter the structure and composition of forest habitats and impact primates’ diets and activity budgets, it is essential to examine the ability of vulnerable species to persist. We studied the feeding ecology of the Endangered Propithecus edwardsi in two forest sites: one with a history of logging, and the other never logged, in Ranoma...
Análise sensorial e nutricional de Brownie com farinha de banana verde
Matos, Mariana; Benincá, Simone Carla; Zanlourensi, Clorine Borba; Schmitt, VaniaO estudo teve como objetivo realizar análise sensorial e nutricional de brownie elaborado com substituição da farinha de trigo por farinha de banana verde. O mesmo contou com a participação de 200 acadêmicos com idade acima de 18 anos, da Faculdade Campo Real, de Guarapuava-PR.

Consumer Buying Tendencies and Knowledge about Bread in Portugal
Guiné, Raquel; Matos, Mariana; Henriques, Carla; Correia, PaulaBread is a pivotal food in many cultures around the world. Besides energy, it provides some nutritional benefits, being an important source of dietary fibres and vitamins. Hence, this research work aimed to understand the purchasing habits and the level of knowledge about bread in the centre of Portugal, as well as in what way those haits might be influenced by sociodemographic variables. The study was conducte...
