Struvite-based composites for slow-release fertilization: a case study in sand
(Nature Research, 2022-08-19)
Struvite (St) recovered from wastewaters is a sustainable option for phosphorus (P) recovery and fertilization, whose solubility is low in water and high in environments characterized by a low pH, such ...
Transmission of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) during animal transport
(Wiley Open Access, 2022-10-25)
The transmission of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) between food-producing animals (poultry, cattle and pigs) during short journeys (< 8 h) and long journeys (> 8 h) directed to other farms or to the ...
Use and Understanding of Nutrition Labels: Impact of Diet Attachment
(MDPI, 2022-06-28)
