Modularity in the insect world as a strategy for bio-inspired and sustainable design

The morphological and functional diversity of insects provides a valuable source of inspiration for the bio-inspired design of innovative and sustainable products and processes. This paper proposes to examine the principles and strategies that guide nature's evolutionary and adaptive activities, with a focus on the concept of a "module" as a measure and standard for achieving resilience and sustainability in natural ecosystems. The concept of a module, relevant in all living organisms, is par...

The Effects of Donkey Meay Cooking Processes on Vitamins and Minerals Content

Meat is an important source of minerals and vitamins, and for this reason largely contributes to the daily intakes of these micronutrients in human diet. Meat cooking techniques showed significant effects on vitamin and trace element contents, with important losses of B-vitamins. Losses in minerals after cooking occur, too, so the amounts of these nutrients really ingested with meat intake could vary greatly. Donkey meat minerals level has been previously determined, while vitamins content ha...

Antibiotic residues: A step forward towards the understanding of their toxic role in food and feed

Introduction: The worldwide use of antibiotics, particularly for intensive farming, is a well-recognized concern. These drugs prevent or treat overcrowding pathologies and improve animal growth and productivity. Nevertheless, their residues in food and feed pose serious health risks among consumers and pets. In particular, we investigated the toxic potential of oxytetracycline (OTC), alone or within the animals' bones, both in vitro and in vivo. Materials and Methods: To determine the...

MORPHOLOGICAL MODULATION OF COLONIC ENTERIC PLEXI IN MICE MODEL OF COLITIS AND THE POSSIBLE EFFECTS OF BACTERIAL STRAIN SUPPLEMENTATION

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are gastrointestinal disorders associated with altered intestinal permeability, which causes a degeneration of the enteric plexi of the enteric nervous system (ENS). Treatments for IBD show poor efficacy. Many studies have identified probiotic supplementation as a possible method for alleviating clinical symptoms. The potential properties of Pediocuccus acidilactici 46A (Pa) were evaluated on a murine model of Dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced coliti...

Probiotic supplementation improves colonic wall morphology and gut microbiota community in a murine model of colitis

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are chronic relapsing-remitting gastrointestinal disorders associated with altered intestinal permeability, which causes a degeneration of the intestinal wall1. The treatments for IBD have insufficient therapeutic efficacy; however, studies identified that disease progression appears to be improved by a probiotic- supplemented diet2. The potential health-promoting properties of Pediocuccus acidilactici 46A (Pa) were evaluated by an orally 10 days supplementat...
