This study aimed to describe the morphological features and microstructure of the upper, lower, and third eyelids of the black-winged kite, Elanus caeruleus, and to characterize the organized lymphoid follicles and lymphocytes in the eyelid mucosa. Additionally, it aimed to illustrate the importance of the eye adnexa in the eye's immune protection. The upper, lower, and third eyelids display varying morphological differences that seem to be closely linked to the birds' way of life, indicating adjustments to their environment and eating behaviors.

To investigate the existence of bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV), parainfluenza virus 3 (PIV-3) and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) as well as its coinfections, a total of 420 pneumonic lung tissue samples were collected from slaughterhouses in three different areas. Samples were examined for the three viruses using antigen detection enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test, and positive results were further confirmed using fluorescent antibody test and polymerase chain reaction. Prevalences detected were 10.

- Steel pipeline systems, which transport about 75% of the world's oil and gas, require protective coatings to prevent corrosion and erosion.
- This research introduces a multi-layered composite coating made from carbon fiber-reinforced thermoplastic polymer (CFRTP) as an alternative to traditional epoxy-based coatings.
- The study evaluates the physical, mechanical, and corrosion-resistant properties of the coated carbon steel samples, revealing that the unidirectional (UD) composite offers the highest flexural strength, while the biaxial composite exhibits the best corrosion resistance.
This research investigates a novel nanocomposite material composed of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and nickel-5,15-bisdodecylporphyrin (Ni-BDP) nanoparticles for the effective removal of methyl orange (MO), a harmful synthetic dye, from water. The structure and composition of the synthesized rGO/Ni-BDP nanocomposite were characterized using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), Raman spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. The study demonstrates the material's efficacy as both a catalyst and adsorbent for MO removal.

- This review summarizes various chemical methods to transform renewable resources into benzenoid aromatics, considering materials like lignocellulose, carbohydrates, fats, and fermentation products.
- Two main approaches are highlighted: catalytic fast pyrolysis, which operates at high temperatures and produces biochar, gases, and aromatic oils, and a multi-step conversion process using platform chemicals derived from lignocellulose or sugars.
- Significant research has centered on furan compounds, with successful applications leading to the construction of large-scale plants for the conversion of lignocellulose to xylene, including one that has started operations in 2023.
