The European Chub (Squalius cephalus) as an indicator of reservoirs pollution and human health risk assessment associated with its consumption
(Pergamon, 2022)
Five reservoirs (Vlasina, Medjuvršje, Zaovine, Perućac, and Garaši) in Serbia were chosen as study sites, which differ by their position, purpose, stages of eutrophication, management policies, and levels of anthropogenic ...
The structural, electrical and optical properties of spark plasma sintered BaSn1-xSbxO3 ceramics
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Antimony doped barium-stannate dense ceramic materials were synthesized using spark plasma sintering technique out of mechanically activated precursor powders. The influence of various Sb concentrations (x = 0.00 - 0.10) ...
Physical and mechanical properties of hemp fibre reinforced alkali-activated fly ash and fly ash/slag mortars
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Two alkali-activated mortars with different solid prime materials were analysed. The first mortar contained fly ash, had lower density, higher water absorption, lower compactness, lower compressive strength, similar flexural ...
Identification and first insights into the structure of chitin from the endemic freshwater demosponge Ochridaspongia rotunda (Arndt, 1937)
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
Studies on the identification, properties and function of chitin in sponges (Porifera), which are recognized as the first multicellular organisms on Earth, continue to be of fundamental scientific interest. The occurrence ...
Significance of silicon uptake, transport, and deposition in plants
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2020)
Numerous studies have shown the beneficial effects of silicon (Si) for plant growth, particularly under stress conditions, and hence a detailed understanding of the mechanisms of its uptake, subsequent transport, and ...
Changes in the winter oilseed rape microbiome affected by Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris and biocontrol potential of the indigenous Bacillus and Pseudomonas isolates
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, San Diego, 2021)
Plant pathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) was recently described as a pathogen of winter oilseed rape in Serbia. A metabarcoding approach was used to study bacterial community composition changes ...
When a Palearctic bacterium meets a Nearctic insect vector: Genetic and ecological insights into the emergence of the grapevine Flavescence doree epidemics in Europe
(Public Library Science, San Francisco, 2020)
Author summary Since the first outbreaks, Flavescence doree epidemics had been associated to the introduction of the North American leafhopper vector Scaphoideus titanus. We hereby show that the associated phytoplasma ...
Interactions of Silicon With Essential and Beneficial Elements in Plants
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2021)
Silicon (Si) is not classified as an essential element for plants, but numerous studies have demonstrated its beneficial effects in a variety of species and environmental conditions, including low nutrient availability. ...
Chitosan and pectin-based films and coatings with active components for application in antimicrobial food packaging
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2021)
This investigation was aimed to develop films and coatings based on natural biopolymers and active components, with physicochemical and functional properties for application in antimicrobial packaging. Biopolymer films ...
Risk assessment of using fish from different types of reservoirs as human food - A study on European perch (Perca fluviatilis)
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Concentrations of As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Pb, and Zn in sediment samples and muscle tissue of the European perch were analyzed using inductively-coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), with the aim to assess ...
