V nalogi obravnavam kruh – osnovno hrano (zahodnega sveta), simbol lakote/sitosti in pogost motiv v umetnosti. Raziščem njegovo zgodovino ter na kratko pregledam pomene in simbole, povezane z njim. Kronološko pregledam v katerih umetniških delih sta upodobljena hrana ali kruh s poudarkom na kiparskih medijih. Nadaljujem z raziskavo uporabe dejanske...

Zinc is an effective anti-inflammatory and antioxidant trace element. The aim of this study was to analyse the protective effect of zinc and zinc-prolactin systems as additives of preservation solutions in the prevention of nephron damage caused during ischemia. The study used a model for storing isolated porcine kidneys in Biolasol®. The solution ...
El primer registro de un proboscídeo en el sector oriental de la Cuenca del Guadalquivir se ha localizado en los abanicos aluviales desarrollados durante una etapa intensa de erosión de los nuevos relieves del frente montañoso más externo de la Cordillera Bética. El fósil estudiado es un fragmento de defensa de 74 cm de longitud que fue transportad...

Worldwide, unsustainable use of nature threatens many ecosystems and the services they provide for a broad diversity of life, including humans. Yet, governments commonly claim that the best available science supports their policies governing extraction of natural resources. We confront this apparent paradox by assessing the complexity of the inters...
As the number of human microbiome studies expand, it is increasingly important to identify cost-effective, practical preservatives that allow for room temperature sample storage. Here, we reanalyzed 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing data from a large sample storage study published in 2016 and performed shotgun metagenomic sequencing on remnant DNA ...

Based on the statistical analyses, we observe that the liver tissue is preserved well in all three solutions for up to 11 h. After then, UW solution provides a better preservation up to 29 h. However, for preservation periods longer than 29 h, HTK is a more effective preservation solution based on the least amount of change in mechanical properties...

Recent work discussing the digitization and preservation of magnetic tape materials has maintained that it should be left to expert practitioners and that the resulting digital materials should be stored in digital repositories. This article suggests that librarians and archivists lacking extensive technical skills or access to expertise can digiti...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanovesicles involved in multiple biological functions. Small EVs (sEVs) are emerging as therapeutics and drug delivery systems for their contents, natural carrier properties, and nanoscale size. Despite various clinical application potentials, little is known about the effects of storage conditions on sEVs for func...

What is the long-term reproductive health outcome of patients who have undergone testicular sampling for fertility preservation (FP) before and during the pubertal transition period? In long-term follow-up after testicular sampling for FP, hormonal data showed that 33% of patients had primary seminiferous tubule insufficiency (high FSH) while semen...
