Moreover, the encapsulation of catalysts used for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide radicals can be another factor in retarding the rate of decomposition. In this way, liposomes act as a stabilizing agent in the bleaching bath [34]. The role of auxiliary products is very important in ...
oils and grease. These lead to ice release by gravitational, vibration or wind forces. Indeed, laboratory investigations have demonstrated that lithium grease and industrial lubricants can reduce ice adhesion strength on an aluminium surface by a factor of as much ...

Government expenditure and taxation have a significant influence on the long-term adaptation and resilience of societies to climate and other environmental shocks. Unprecedented fiscal spending in the COVID-19 recovery offered an opportunity to systemati
regions based on each region’s declined tree percentage. Considering these decline regions, we analyze abiotic factors, such as topographic features, land use classes, and long-term drought and metrological factors. The goal is determining which factor significantly affects each region’s oak decline...
The coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has affected all supply chains through severe disruption of logistics activities, production, and markets. This study aimed to survey the impact of the coronavirus on the poultry supply chain using an exploratory sequential mixed design. We first addressed those ...
Next chapter in book Key Points Introduction Respiratory infections can cause wheezing illnesses in children of all ages and also influence the development and severity of asthma in several ways. First, viral wheezing episodes during infancy are a critical risk factor for asthma inception. Once asthma...
To address questions about whether high-impact journals accept secondary analyses of open data, we also examined journal impact factors for publications using INDI data. The assessment of journal impact remains somewhat challenging given the growing number of indices available (e.g., impact factor, ...
In fact, it is necessary to turn to specialized literature on social innovation to identify the antecedent factors of this management strategy (Cajalba-Santana,2014; Krlev et al.,2014). The first type of such factor is linked to the structural perspective and implies that the environment or ...
