Rheological behavior, antimicrobial and quorum sensig inhibition study of an argentinean oregano essential oil nanoemulsion
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020-10)In this study, Argentinean oregano essential oil (OEO) nanoemulsions (NEs) were developed. Four NEs were prepared: a control (CNE), EONE1 (10.6 mg EO/g NE), EONE2 (106 mg EO/ g NE), and EONE3 (160 mg EO/g NE) and tested ... -
Are all edges equal? Microclimatic conditions, geographical orientation and biological implications in a fragmented forest
(Elsevier Science, 2019-04)In fragmented forests the edges experience changes in microclimatic conditions, which are referred to as “abiotic edge effect”, and differ according to geographical orientation and season. These microclimatic changes could ... -
Preclinical investigation of Methylene Blue-mediated Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy on Leishmania parasites using Real-Time Bioluminescence
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-05)Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a neglected disease that promotes destructive lesions. Difficulties in treatment are related to accessibility of drugs, resistance and toxicity. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (APDT) has ... -

Physiognomic changes in response to herbivory increase carbon allocation to roots in a temperate grassland of central Argentina
(Springer, 2019-08)In most temperate grasslands, cattle grazing can promote physiognomic changes on plant communities, as well as changes in species growth patterns. Through these changes in vegetation, cattle grazing can generate changes ... -
Insect and plant traits drive local and landscape effects on herbivory in grassland fragments
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2019-05)Herbivory is one of the most important antagonistic insect-plant interactions and can be influenced by factors at local and landscape scales. Landscape fragmentation may reduce herbivory directly (i.e., decreasing abundance ... -

Gentianaceae, Gencianáceas
(Universidad Nacional de San Juan & Fundacion ArgenInta, 2017)Se realiza el tratamiento florístico de la Fam. Gentianaceae para San Juan. Se reconocen 3 géneros, cada uno con solo una especie. Se describen e ilustran las especies y indica el área de distribución en el territorio sanjuanino. -
Daily fluctuations in pollination effectiveness explain higher efficiency of native over exotic bees in Lepechinia floribunda (Lamiaceae)
(Oxford University Press, 2019-12)Despite Stebbins’ principle of the most efficient pollinator being proposed decades ago, the most important pollinators are still mainly identified using the frequency of visits to flowers. This shortcoming results in a ... -
Effects of fire on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in the Mountain Chaco Forest
(Elsevier Science, 2014-03)The aim of this study was to evaluate the fire effects on the AMF spore communities and soil chemical properties as well as the existence of possible correlations between them in the Chaco Serrano Forests of central ... -
Structure, behaviour and repetitive DNA of B-chromosomes in Cestrum nocturnum (Solanaceae)
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019-01)The Cestrum genus is karyotypically exceptional in Solanaceae. It is characterised by a basic number x = 8, a large chromosomal and genomic size, complex heterochromatin patterns, B-chromosomes (Bs) with particular ... -
Root colonizing and soil borne communities of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi differ among soybean fields with contrasting historical land use
(Elsevier Science, 2019-01)Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are a key component of soil microbiota in natural and anthropogenic ecosystems. Even though soil type and climate conditioned land uses in the past, soybean cultivation has overrode such ... -
Sensory quality of milk fat with low cholesterol content fractioned by molecular distillation
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2018-07)Anhydrous milk fat (AMF) is a valuable ingredient in several industries, but its cholesterol content is a disadvantage because it is associated with several diseases. The objective of this study was to remove the largest ... -
Utilization of a partially-deoiled chia flour to improve the nutritional and antioxidant properties of wheat pasta
(Elsevier Science, 2018-03)Pasta is a popular staple food. Today, there is a trend to consume less processed foods. Products fortification with certain properties, such as antioxidant potential and dietary fiber, represents an added value. Chia is ... -
Antioxidant activity displayed by phenolic compounds obtained from Walnut Oil Cake used for Walnut Oil Preservation

Disentangling the role of herkogamy, dichogamy and pollinators in plant reproductive assurance
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018-05)Autonomous selfing can be favoured by reduced floral herkogamy, dichogamy and pollinator visitation. Autonomous selfing diminishes as pollinator abundance increases; however, the ways pollinators contribute to such result ... -
