Harnessing insects mediated plastic biodegradation: Current insight and future directions.

Plastic polymers pose a significant challenge due to their resistance to degradation, resulting in their persistent accumulation in the environment and exacerbating a critical environmental concern. Urgent innovation and novel management technologies are essential to tackle this issue. Plastic biodegradation, distinguished by its environmentally friendly and safe attributes, has garnered substantial attention as a viable solution.

Effect of the Triceps Brachii Facilitation Technique on Scapulohumeral Muscle Activation during Reach and Point in a Healthy Population.

Neurodevelopmental techniques are commonly used in upper limb rehabilitation, but little evidence supports the facilitation techniques associated with this concept. This exploratory study determined whether a facilitation technique at the triceps muscle affected scapulothoracic muscle activity during reach in healthy participants compared with self-selected posture and reach. The secondary aim was to determine whether muscle activation levels differed between the facilitation technique and the optimized posture or guided movement.
