Following PRISMA guidelines, systematic searches were conducted across five databases (PubMed, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 19 Feb 2026 · 1,849 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Study of Properties of Biopolymers from Corn Starch with Addition of Microalgae Spirulina platensisJúllia Koury Abreu, Loraynne Coelho Pereira, José Izaquiel Santos da SilvaThe discovery of the environmental impacts caused by petroleum-based polymers has led to the use of natural polymers gaining more and more space. Naturally occurring polymers, also known as biopolymers, are chemical compounds produced by living things or raw materials from renewable energy sources. Their main advantage is decomposition, while polymers from fossil and non-renewable energies can take hundreds of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2023 · 6,032 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvances in Modern Biotechnological Tools for Sustainable Control of Plant Viral DiseasesNabela Akter, Ankita Saha, Md. Abdullah Al Sabbir, Md. Motaher HossainPlant viruses pose a major threat to global food production, causing yield losses across many staple and horticultural crops. Conventional breeding for resistance is typically slow and constrained by the number of available natural resistance genes. Recent breakthroughs in biotechnology have enabled the development of accurate, flexible, and environmentally friendly technologies to confer virus resistance. This review summarizes exciting developments … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 16 Jul 2026 · 731 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Diagnosis of Toxoplasma gondii in Free-Range Chickens (Gallus gallus) Sold at Fairs in the Metropolitan Region of Macapá–AP (Brazil)Paulo Tarso Tavares Santana, Washington Luiz Assunção Pereira, Rafaelle Casseb Guimarães et al.The informal commercialization of free-range poultry in open markets poses potential food safety risks regarding zoonotic pathogens. This investigation molecularly and histopathologically screened for Toxoplasma gondii in 36 free-range chickens acquired from 12 prominent markets in metropolitan Macapá, Amapá State. Paired heart and brain tissue samples from each animal were processed via conventional PCR and conventional histology. The pathogen was … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 2 Jul 2026 · 1,080 accessesView PDF Cite
