Classification of 3-node restricted excitatory-inhibitory networks.

We classify connected 3-node restricted excitatory-inhibitory networks, extending our previous paper (Aguiar et al., 2024). We assume that there are two node-types and two arrow-types, excitatory and inhibitory; all excitatory arrows are identical and all inhibitory arrows are identical; and excitatory (resp.

Role of horizontal gene transfer and cooperation in rhizosphere microbiome assembly.

Microbes employ a variety of mechanisms, encompassing chemical signaling (e.g., quorum-sensing molecules) and genetic processes like horizontal gene transfer (HGT), to engage in interactions.

Advances in nanomaterials for radiation protection in the aerospace industry: a systematic review.

Nanomaterials stand out for their exceptional properties and innovative potential, especially in applications that protect against space radiation. They offer an innovative approach to this challenge, demonstrating notable properties of radiation absorption and scattering, as well as flexibility and lightness for the development of protective clothing and equipment. This review details the use of polymeric materials, such as polyimides (PIs), which are efficient at attenuating ultraviolet (UV) radiation and atomic oxygen (AO).

Chemical characterization and antioxidant potential of Arthrospira sp., Thalassiosira sp., and Raphidonema sp.

Microalgae are emerging as valuable sources of bioactive compounds. This study evaluates hexane extracts from Thalassiosira sp. and Raphidonema sp.

Orange peel essential oil in rice starch encapsulating material for antimicrobial application against Escherichia coli.

This study investigated the formation of fibers and capsules using rice starch as a wall material to encapsulate orange peel essential oil (OPEO) by electrospinning for antimicrobial applications. Rice starch at a concentration of 20 % (w/v) and varying OPEO concentrations (30 %, 40 %, and 50 %, w/w) were used to produce materials. Free OPEO was analyzed for its chemical profile and antimicrobial activity.
