Abstract:
Microgreens are a functional food that is very appreciated for their good taste and product features. They are produced all year without fertilizers and pesticides. In this paper, the effects of the application of commercial and natural biostimulants on the yield and nutraceutical properties of turnip greens and radish microgreens were investigated. The experiment consisted of four treatments based on biostimulants (Bio-1: TRAINER®; Bio-2: AQUAMIN®; Bio-3: leaf moringa extract; C: distilled water (control)) applied in two species (turnip greens and radish).

Abstract:
Brain machine interfaces (BMI) connect brains directly to the outside world, bypassing natural neural systems and actuators. Neuronal-activity-to-motion transformation algorithms allow applications such as control of prosthetics or computer cursors. These algorithms lie within a spectrum between bio-mimetic control and bio-feedback control. The bio-mimetic approach relies on increasingly complex algorithms to decode neural activity by mimicking the natural neural system and actuator relationship while focusing on machine learning: the supervised fitting of decoder parameters.

Background: Plant diseases are caused mainly by fungi, bacteria, viruses and nematodes.

The new tendency of consumers and processors in the food industry is to use organic products. Because intensive crops involve the use of pesticides and fertilizers, a bio alternative to tomatoes can be the rosehip from spontaneous flora. In this study, four variants (control, sweet, spicy and hot) of rosehip chutney were prepared as an alternative for tomato ketchup. The sensory characteristics were evaluated (by hedonic scale). The vitamin C content (by titrimetric iodometric method), polyphenols content (by Folin Ciocalteu assay) and free radical inhibition activity (by DPPH assay) were dete

Abstract:
The significance of organic plant growth stimulants, in the development of sustainable agriculture and increasing the fertility of degraded soils has sparked the interest of scientists and practitioners working in the field of agriculture in recent decades. On the world market, there are numerous plant growth biostimulants of various origins and compositions, as well as numerous research analyzing their impacts and roles. The study aimed to determine the novel biological activity of the new Georgian biostimulants Bactofert-L Blatt, Bactofert-L Boden, and Bactofert-L Si, which were developed by

Abstract:
Abstract Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) is a well-documented phenomenon that accounts for a significant proportion of all upstream oil and gas corrosion issues from reservoir to refinery. This study investigates the impact of electromagnetic (EM) field created by a device that propagates an EM signal, on planktonic and sessile bacterial populations, aiming to determine the frequency configuration to inhibit bacterial growth, activity, and attachment to metal surfaces, thus mitigating bacterial activity conducive to the promotion of MIC. Such bacteria, including acid-producing bac

Abstract:
The general objective of this study was to develop rationally designed mimetic antagonists (and agonists) of the PK/PBAN Np class with enhanced bio-stability and bioavailability as prototypes for effective and environmentally friendly pest insect management agents. The PK/PBAN family is a multifunctional group of Nps that mediates key functions in insects (sex pheromone biosynthesis, cuticular melanization, myotropic activity, diapause and pupal development) and is, therefore, of high scientific and applied interest. The objectives of the current study were: (i) to identify an antagonist bioph
