Dietary Supplementation with Popped Amaranth Modulates the Gut Microbiota in Low Height-for-Age Children: A Nonrandomized Pilot Trial
(MDPI, 2023)Amaranth has been recognized as a nutraceutical food because it contains high-quality proteins due to its adequate amino acid composition that covers the recommended requirements for children and adults. Since pre-Hispanic ... -
Monitoring β-Fructofuranosidase Activity through Kluyveromyces marxianus in Bioreactor Using a Lab-Made Sequential Analysis System
(MDPI, 2023)The yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus has shown the potential to produce ?? -fructofuranosidases, which are enzymes capable of hydrolyzing ?? -fructofuranosides links of fructans to obtain fructooligosaccharides. The thriving ... -
Population and Transcriptomic Changes of the Tropical Fish Parasite Caligus confusus (Copepoda: Caligidae) with Seasonal Variations in Sea Temperature
(MDPI, 2023)Fish–parasite systems could be subject to two scenarios under climate change: (i) increased water temperature might enhance parasite metabolism, allowing the parasite to spread rapidly; (ii) parasitism could decrease if ... -
FPGA Implementation of a Chaotic Map with No Fixed Point
(MDPI, 2023)The employment of chaotic maps in a variety of applications such as cryptosecurity, image encryption schemes, communication schemes, and secure communication has been made possible thanks to their properties of high levels ... -
Control Scheme for a Quadratic-Based Step-Down On-Board DC/DC Converter to Be Used in Hybrid Electric Vehicles
(MDPI, 2023)This paper discusses a switching regulator with a quadratic-based step-down DC/DC converter designed using a reduced redundant power processing principle. This converter benefits from a non-complex topology, which aims to ... -
Microwave-assisted synthesis of carbon-supported Pt nanoparticles for their use as electrocatalysts in the oxygen reduction reaction and hydrogen evolution reaction
(Elsevier, 2023)Pt nanoparticles were incorporated on carbon black (Vulcan XC-72R) and an activated carbon (F400) using a fast and efficient microwave method. For the preparation, a Pt solution was contacted with the corresponding carbon ... -
Infection intensity shapes specialization and beta diversity of haemosporidian–bird networks across elevations
(Wiley, 2023)Host–parasite distribution and interactions depend on geography, evolutionary associations, species composition, and their response to environmental variables. In this sense, host specificity as a key parasite's life history ... -
Magnetostructural transition and magnetocaloric effect in Mn0.5Fe0.5NiSi1-xAlxmelt-spun ribbons (x = 0.055 and 0.060)
(American Institute of Physics, 2023)Melt-spun ribbons samples of the multicomponent alloy Mn0.5Fe0.5NiSi0.940Al0.060 were prepared and the magnetostructural transition (MST) and related magnetocaloric properties studied for as-solidified ribbons and ribbon ... -
Predicting geographic distribution and habitat suitability of Opuntia streptacantha in paleoclimatic, current, and future scenarios in Mexico
(Wiley, 2023)Mexican territory is one of the centers of origin and dispersion of the genus Opuntia, where several of its species have been an important plant resource for people in arid and semiarid zones. Opuntia streptacantha is ... -
RecruitNet: A global database of plant recruitment networks
(Wiley, 2023)Plant recruitment interactions (i.e., what recruits under what) shape the composition, diversity, and structure of plant communities. Despite the huge body of knowledge on the mechanisms underlying recruitment interactions ... -
Patterns of Richness and Endemism in the Gypsicolous Flora of Mexico
(MDPI, 2023)Gypsum soils occur around the world, mainly in arid regions. These harsh environments promote unusual flora with high degrees of endemism. Mexico has extensive gypsum outcrops, but their flora has been poorly studied. ... -
Exploring the crystal structure and properties of ytterbium orthoantimonate under high pressure
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2023)The crystal structure of YbSbO4 was determined from powder X-ray diffraction data using the Rietveld method. YbSbO4 is found to be monoclinic and isostructural to ?-PrSbO4. We have also tested the influence of pressure on ... -
The Effect of a Yb Co-Dopant on the Blue Upconversion and Thermoluminescent Emission of SrLaAlO4:Yb3+,Tm3+ Phosphors
(MDPI, 2023)In this study, we described the structural, morphological, optical, photoluminescence, and thermoluminescence properties of SrLaAlO4:Tm3+,Yb3+ (SLAO:Tm,Yb) blue-emitting phosphors made by combustion synthesis and a ... -
One-Pot Synthesis of Iron-Modified Zeolite X and Characterization of the Obtained Materials
(MDPI, 2023)Iron inclusion in the composition of the zeolite crystal structure endows it with new and useful properties. However, direct synthesis involving Fe, frequently creates unfavorable conditions that hinder the crystallization ... -
Influence of the Valence of Iron on the NO Reduction by CO over Cu-Fe-Mordenite
(MDPI, 2023)A comprehensive study of the catalytic properties of the copper-iron binary system supported on mordenite, depending on the iron valence—CuFe2MOR and CuFe3MOR—was carried out, and redox ability has been considered as a ... -
Are nurse plants useful for facilitating the reintroduction of mid- and late successional tree species in tropical montane cloud forests?
(Sociedad Botánica de México, 2023)Background: In Mexico, where 50 % of the original Tropical montane cloud forest (TMCF) has been lost due to human activities, the restoration of these forests is essential. Questions and/or hypotheses: (1) Liquidambar ... -
Metal decorated carbon nanotube aerogels from sodium polyacrylate crosslinking by divalent ions
(Elsevier, 2023)In this work sodium polyacrylate functionalized carbon nanotube aerogels were prepared from aqueous medium by simple ionic cross-linking using copper nitrate and calcium chloride as cation sources to obtain self-standing ... -
Effect of storage time and pre-germination treatments on nine native herbaceous species with the potential to restore degraded soils of La Primavera Forest, Jalisco
(Sociedad Botánica de México, 2023)Background: Percentage and speed of germination are crucial factors that can restrict processes involved in plant succession during ecological restora-tion. Pre-germination treatments and the effect of storage time on ... -
