Effective conservation planning in protected aquatic ecosystems requires analytical tools capable of identifying complex relationships among ecological indicators and management actions. This study proposes a data-driven conservation modeling approach to support sustainable management of fish species within protected areas. Using ecological and management data collected over seven years from...

Digitalization and technology are reshaping contemporary realities at an unprecedented pace and are generating new opportunities for innovation at the intersection of multiple fields. The algorithmic logic of these innovations produces novel social phenomena and nurtures a range of anxieties, fears, and retreat of particular categories of population into conservative values for obtaining the...

Invasive plants, despite being viewed with skepticism due to their negative effects mainly on environmental biodiversity, proved to be valuable resources, from a medical or an industrial perspective. Some of these plants are characterized by relevant biological properties, relatively low cytotoxicity, coloring properties, being also used in environmental remediation, as biopesticides or in...

Cancer, as highlighted by numerous researchers (Caldiroli et al., 2025; Hsiao & Lee, 2026; Karademas et al., 2025), represents a life-threatening medical condition in which psychological factors, particularly emotion-related processes, play a substantial role in patients’ adaptation and overall functioning. For the individual, a cancer diagnosis constitutes a highly stressful and potentially...

Keywords: plant by-products, polysaccharides, biologically active substances.
Background: The annual accumulation of significant amounts of plant residues in the agricultural and pharmaceutical sectors creates a significant environmental burden, but in the context of the global transition to a closed-loop economy, these by-products should be considered as promising natural raw materials....

Structural and functional loss of biodiversity and habitat heterogeneity are among the main plagues of the age and pose an increasing threat to the future of our planet. Despite all efforts, mostly declaratory and less effective, the edge of the diversity crisis, embodied by the next, also called the sixth mass extinction, was allegedly already passed. Among the many cases of failure of...

Background: Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by several fungal genera, particularly Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Fusarium (1). Beauvericin (BEA) is an emerging mycotoxin that currently has limited regulatory control (2). Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between oxidative stress and cell death mechanisms induced by BEA exposure. Methods:...

Introduction. Nowadays, humanity is facing many problems in the field of ecology, the purity of air, soil and water is deteriorating. Due to the overuse of natural resources, many plant species are becoming endangered and are eventually lost forever. The key role in solving such problems can be played by the popularization of waste recycling.

Sericin is a natural glycoprotein, produced by the silkworm (Bombyx mori). It "coats" silk filaments, and in industrial processes, it is obtained by degumming to facilitate processing. In the textile industry, it is considered a by-product; for other industries, it can be considered the main raw material.

Sericin represents 20-30% of the weight of the silk cocoon, implying a production of up... -
