The present study was conducted by using kitchen wastes like peels of different vegetables e.g.cucumber, potato, carrot, chickpea, cauliflower and pea, to evaluate the phytochemical constituents, DNA protection ability and free radicals scavenging activity.Phytochemicals tests showed the presence of carbohydrates, amino acids, glycosides, alkaloids
Analytical Dimensions for Identifying Social Innovations: Evidence from Collective Enterprises
Social innovations are seen as alternatives to address social and environmental problems facing humanity.However, the term covers a broad range of definitions which can include a variety of initiatives.Based on analytical dimensions of social innovations, this study sought to assess to what extent the emergence of collective bostik roll-cote enterp
Nut Cracking Tools Used by Captive Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) and Their Comparison with Early Stone Age Percussive Artefacts from Olduvai Gorge.
We present the results of a series of experiments at the Kumamoto Sanctuary in Japan, in which captive chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) performed several nut cracking sessions using raw materials from Olduvai Gorge, Tanzania.We examined captive chimpanzee pounding tools using a soderhamn ottoman cover combination of technological analysis, use-wear di
L-selectin and skin damage in systemic sclerosis.
BackgroundL-selectin ligands are induced on the endothelium of inflammatory sites.L-selectin expression on neutrophils and monocytes may mediate the primary adhesion of these cells at sites of inflammation by mediating the leukocyte-leukocyte interactions that facilitate their recruitment.L-selectin retains functional activity in its soluble form.L
New insights into the distribution, potential source and risk of microplastics in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
Microplastics (MPs) as emerging contaminants have become a major global concern, however, the distribution and origin of MPs in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) and their impacts on ecosystem are poorly known.Hence, we systematically evaluated the profile of MPs on the representative metropolitan locations of Lhasa and bostik universal primer pro Huangs
