essential oils inclusion in diets induces desirable effects on meat quality and fatty acid profiles of broilers chickens.

The effects of A (African wormwood) essential oil incorporation in diets on meat quality and fatty acid profilers of broilers was assessed. Four hundred Cobb500 day-old chicks were obtained and placed randomly into the following 4 diets replicated 10 times: NC-Negative control (broiler diet without antibiotics), PC-positive control (broiler diet with zinc bacitracin), AA1-broiler diet + 0.1 % essential oil and AA2 - broiler diet + 0.

The voice of a group of teachers in full-service schools in South Africa.

Background: Full-service schools (FSSs) were introduced into the South African school system as part of the movement towards inclusive education.

Objectives: The authors of this article embarked on a study to obtain the opinions and feelings of a group of teachers about FSSs and inclusive education. Thus, the 'voice' of these teachers could be heard.

Clinical characteristics, bacterial coinfections and outcomes in COVID-19-associated pulmonary aspergillosis in a third-level Mexican hospital during the COVID-19 pre-vaccination era.

Background: Damage due to respiratory viruses increases the risk of bacterial and fungal coinfections and superinfections. High rates of invasive aspergillosis are seen in severe influenza and COVID-19. This report describes CAPA cases diagnosed during the first wave in the biggest reference centre for severe COVID-19 in Mexico.

Effect of pH on the Mechanical Properties of Single-Biopolymer Mucilage (), Pectin and Alginate Films: Development and Mechanical Characterisation.

Pectin and alginate are well-established biopolymers used in natural film development. Single-polymer mucilage films were developed from freeze-dried native mucilage powder of two cultivars, 'Algerian' and 'Morado', and the films' mechanical properties were compared to single-polymer pectin and alginate films developed from commercially available pectin and alginate powders. The casting method prepared films forming solutions at 2.
