Pseudocereals have gained attention due to their adaptability different climates, high nutritional value, and suitability for gluten-free plant-based diets. However, a challenge lies in the necessary adaptations diet pathways, mainly lack of matrix-matching metrological tools. To address this problem, we developed classification system support laboratory decisions without shaped Proficiency Testing (PT) or Certified/Standard References Material. This evaluates method performance through...
This research aims at bringing new contributions for lowering the polyether‐based polyurethane (PUR) flexible foam high deterioration rate by studying selected storage conditions. With a life expectancy of 20–50 years, many PUR objects show severe signs that, so far, cannot be prevented. To establish preservation strategy, natural ageing experiment in dark (12 months, 45–55% relative humidity) has been carried out study four conditions: open air room temperature (T) and sealed enclosures T...
Organizations need to constantly improve their strategy, processes, and management practices keep up with the ever-changing business environment. Over past few years, there has been a significant surge in popularity of lean agile approaches. However, when we talk about hybrid approach that combines both mindsets, more research is required fully understand this concept. Based on identified gap, study will be conducted evaluate how mindsets can implemented private label product development...
TEM00-mode operation is a requirement in many laser-based applications due to the small divergence and high-power density of emitted laser beam. A solar scheme was designed numerically studied with goal increasing solar-to-laser power conversion efficiency operation. The collection primary concentration sunlight performed via twelve sets folding mirrors Fresnel lenses, toward head composed fused silica torus volume seven Ce:Nd:YAG rods, side-pump configuration. With this scheme, totaling...
To determine the prevalence of pre-hypertension (pre-HTN) and hypertension (HTN) in Portuguese adolescents Lisbon to ascertain relationship between blood pressure (BP) levels risk factors gender, obesity, smoking, alcohol consumption, exercise family history HTN.This was a cross-sectional study non-randomized sample 234 both sexes, aged 16 19 years. Information on habits HTN obtained through self-completed structured questionnaire.The included adolescents, mean age 16.4±0.9 years, 57% male....
Every year, grapevine pruning produces huge amounts of residue, 90% which are from vine shoots. These a rich source natural antioxidants, mostly phenolic compounds, which, when properly extracted, can give rise to added-value products. However, their lack solubility in aqueous media and high susceptibility thermal oxidative degradation highly limit bioavailability. Encapsulation suitable carriers may have positive impact on bioavailability bioactivity. Previous data vine-shoot extraction...
Port and Douro wines are produced in the Demarcated Region using different wine making processes. This works aims at evaluating influence of geographical origin process their multielement (Li, Be, B, Al, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Rb, Sr, Mo, Ag, Cd, Sn, Tl, Pb, Fe, Mg, P, Ca, Na, K) isotopic compositions (87Sr/86Sr, δ11B, xPb/yPb, δ18O). Fifteen samples each were analysed. ANOVA identified significant differences for 206Pb/204Pb, 207Pb/204Pb, 206Pb/207Pb δ11B. PCA revealed that Se Cu...

Buprenorphine is a common analgesic in experimental research, due to effectiveness and having few side-effects, including limited influence the immune endocrine systems. However, how buprenorphine affects cytokine levels adrenal thyroid response during general anesthesia surgery incompletely understood. This study aimed assess whether modulated significantly those responses rats submitted anesthesia, mechanical ventilation, surgical insertion of intravascular catheters.Animals were...
The development of a chromatographic procedure for an ultra‐performance liquid chromatography can be very time‐consuming task, as the general approach finding appropriate operating conditions has been trial‐and‐error process. present study reports novel in field by using statistical experimental design based on Taguchi's method, which allows complete separation nine isocyanates complex matrix. resolution between two adjacent peaks was considered quality characteristic and transformed to...
Hemorrhagic shock (HS) induces a compensatory endocrine and cytokine response which aims to restore homeostasis. This can be modulated by general anesthetics. To our knowledge, no studies have evaluated if etomidate modulates this in experimental HS. After being premedicated with buprenorphine (0.05 mg/kg subcutaneously), male Wistar rats were anaesthetized 5% isoflurane divided into three groups: G1 (control, n = 16), G2 (n 13), G3 14). subjected HS collecting 30% of their blood volume...
The purpose of this paper is to identify and analyze some relevant issues which arise when the concept metrological traceability applied health care facilities. Discussion structured around results that were obtained through a characterization comparative description practices in 45 different Portuguese entities. Following qualitative exploratory approach, information collected was support for initial research hypotheses development questionnaire survey. It also quantitative methodology...
