Ascorbic acid in cosmetic formulations: Stability, in vitro release, and permeation using a rapid, inexpensive, and simple method
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2017-01-01)
Ascorbic acid (AA) is involved in important metabolic processes in the human body. However, its chemical instability requires the assessment of products containing AA. The aim of this study was to develop systems that ...
Retention Forestry in Southern Patagonia: Multiple Environmental Impacts and Their Temporal Trends
(Commonwealth Forestry Association, 2015-06)
Harvesting with variable retention (VR) applied in Nothofagus forests combines two types of retention: patches of original forest (aggregates) and single isolated homogeneously distributed trees (dispersed). This study ...
Pleistocene megafaunal extinctions and the functional loss of long-distance seed-dispersal services
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2018-01-01)
Pleistocene extinctions affected mainly large-bodied animals, determining the loss or changes in numerous ecological functions. Evidence points to a central role of many extinct megafauna herbivores as seed dispersers. An ...
Variable retention forestry conserves habitat of bird species in Patagonian Nothofagus pumilio forests
("Marin Drăcea" National Research-Development Institute in Forestry, 2018-12-31)
Variable retention is an alternative harvesting system that could be implemented instead the more traditional ones (e.g. shelterwood cut for N. pumilio forests in southern Patagonia), because it was designed not only for ...
Why biodiversity increases after variable retention harvesting: A meta-analysis for southern Patagonian forests
(2016-06-01)
Effects of forest harvesting on biodiversity can be varied and complex to understand. We provide a meta-analysis of 553 studies plants, insects and birds to identify the general responses to Variable Retention harvesting ...
The São Paulo shelf (SE Brazil) as a nursery ground for Doryteuthis plei (Blainville, 1823) (Cephalopoda, Loliginidae) paralarvae: a Lagrangian particle-tracking individual-based model approach
(SpringerCham, 2014)
The São Paulo shelf ranges from ~23ºS to 25ºS, comprising nearly 622 km of shoreline. This region sustains historical landings of the tropical arrow squid Doryteuthis plei. As in other coleoid cephalopods, the broodstock ...
Solid Lipid Microparticles Produced By Spray Chilling Technique To Deliver Ginger Oleoresin: Structure And Compound Retention
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BVAMSTERDAM, 2016)
Why biodiversity increases after variable retention harvesting: A meta-analysis for southern Patagonian forests.
(Elsevier Science, 2016-03)
Effects of forest harvesting on biodiversity can be varied and complex to understand. We provide a metaanalysisof 553 studies plants, insects and birds to identify the general responses to Variable Retentionharvesting (VR) ...
Filling gaps in the seed dispersal effectiveness model for Prosopis flexuosa: quality of seed treatment in the digestive tract of native animals
(Cambridge University Press, 2020-09)
For endozoochorous species, the quality component of seed dispersal effectiveness depends in part on the treatment seeds receive in the animal's gut. Covering a variety of taxa, diet, digestion system and body size of ...
Environmental variables influencing regeneration of Nothofagus pumilio in a system with combined aggregated and dispersed retention
(Elsevier, 2011-01-01)
The current silvicultural prescriptions for Nothofagus are designed to stimulate natural regeneration by opening the canopy. One of these methods is variable retention, which can include either or both aggregated and ...
