Economic growth effects of de facto and de jure trade globalization in ECOWAS
(Univerzita Tomáše Bati ve Zlíně, 2023)
This paper examines the dynamics of trade globalization by analysing and comparing the economic growth effect of overall trade globalization with the growth effects of de facto and de jure trade globalization in the economic ...
Activating supply chain business models' value potentials through Systems Engineering
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2023)
New business opportunities, driven by smart digitalization technology and initiatives such as Industry 4.0, significantly change business models and their innovation rate. The complexity of methodologies developed in recent ...
Manure application followed by biochar application increases plant production regardless of soil dehydrogenase activity
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2023)
Biochar is obtained by the pyrolysis of biomass, and contains abundant carbon and minerals. Biochar supplementation of soils can greatly improve soil health and quality, but these beneficial effects typically develop slowly ...
Impregnation of Norway spruce with low melting-point binary fatty acid as a phase-change material
(CRC Press/Taylor and Francis Group, 2023)
Norway spruce was impregnated with a eutectic mixture of capric acid and stearic acid. The binary fatty acid was used as a bio-based phase-change material (PCM) for further applications with wood as a latent heat-storage ...
Comparative investigation of chemical and structural properties of charred fir wood samples by Raman and FTIR spectroscopy as well as X-ray-micro-CT technology
(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2023)
Wood surface charring is a treatment method commonly employed to enhance weather protection and aesthetic appearance of building exteriors. This study aims to investigate the differences between two wood surface charring ...
A color-tunable single-benzene fluorophore-based sensor for sensitive detection of palladium in solution and living cells
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2023)
Single-benzene fluorophores are bright and the smallest fluorochromes known so far. In single-benzene fluorophores, the fluorescence is mediated by the push/pull effect of substituting groups. Despite a plethora of ...
Solvent Accessibility Promotes Rotamer Errors during Protein Modeling with Major Side-Chain Prediction Programs
(American Chemical Society, 2023)
Side-chain rotamer prediction is one of the most critical late stages in protein 3D structure building. Highly advanced and specialized algorithms (e.g., FASPR, RASP, SCWRL4, and SCWRL4v) optimize this process by use of ...
Ergosterol and polyphenol contents as rapid indicators of orchardgrass silage safety
(Elsevier Science Ltd., 2023)
The ergosterol (ERG) has been proposed as a potential indicator of fungal contamination, along with polyphenol content analysis to predict silage safety. Despite efforts in controlling fungal growth in silage, mycotoxin ...
Evaluation of semen parameters from Fleckvieh-Simmental bulls and the influence of age and season of collection
(Archiv für Tierzucht, 2023)
The aim of this paper was to evaluate semen parameters from Czech Fleckvieh (dual-purpose breed) bulls used in artificial insemination in the Fleckvieh population. The ejaculate was collected from bulls only once a week, ...
Artificial habitat - a chance for survival of a rare montane dragonfly (Odonata): case study on an alpine emerald (Somatochlora alpestris)
(Springer Netherlands, 2023)
The mountain ecosystems of Central Europe are an important natural phenomenon. The character of small isolated islands also predetermines their vulnerability. Typical inhabitant of subalpine and alpine peat bogs, tiny ...
