The Treatment With the SGLT2 Inhibitor Empagliflozin Modifies the Hepatic Metabolome of Male Zucker Diabetic Fatty Rats Towards a Protective Profile
(Frontiers Media, 2022-01-02)
[Abstract] The EMPA-REG OUTCOME (Empagliflozin, Cardiovascular Outcome Event Trial in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)) trial evidenced the potential of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors for ...
Experimental studies on TiO2 NT with metal dopants through co-precipitation, sol–gel, hydrothermal scheme and corresponding computational molecular evaluations
(MDPI, 2023-04-13)
[Abstract] In the last decade, TiO2 nanotubes have attracted the attention of the scientific community and industry due to their exceptional photocatalytic properties, opening a wide range of additional applications in the ...
Effect of different plasticizers on thermal, crystalline, and permeability properties of Poly(3–hydroxybutyrate–co-3–hydroxyhexanoate)films
(MDPI, 2022-08-22)
Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) (PHBH) films were prepared using a cast film technique. Dioxane was chosen over other polymer solvents as it resulted in homogenous films with better morphology. Several ...

[Abstract]: With increasing environmental awareness, lignin will play a key role in the transition from the traditional materials industry towards sustainability and Industry 4.0, boosting the development of functional ...
Crystallization-Induced Gelling as a Method to 4D Print Low-Water-Content Non-isocyanate Polyurethane Hydrogels
(American Chemical Society, 2021)
[Abstract] The use of three-dimensional (3D) printable hydrogels for biomedical applications has attracted considerable attention as a consequence of the ability to precisely define the morphology of the printed object, ...
Comparing the Microstructure and Photovoltaic Performance of 3 Perylene Imide Acceptors With Similar Energy Levels but Different Packing Tendencies
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022)
[Abstract] While it is widely recognized that microstructure plays an important role in the performance of organic photovoltaics (OPV), systematic studies are often challenging, as varying the molecular packing through ...
Dense Matrix Multiplication Algorithms and Performance Evaluation of HPCC in 81 Nodes IBM Power 8 Architecture
(MDPI, 2021-08)
[Abstract] Optimizing HPC systems based on performance factors and bottlenecks is essential for designing an HPC infrastructure with the best characteristics and at a reasonable cost. Such insight can only be achieved ...
Y6 Organic Thin-Film Transistors with Electron Mobilities of 2.4 cm² V⁻¹ s⁻¹ via Microstructural Tuning
(2022-01-05)
[Abstract] There is a growing demand to attain organic materials with high electron mobility, μe, as current reliable reported values are significantly lower than those exhibited by their hole mobility counterparts. Here, ...
Moving to e-Service Learning in Higher Education
(MDPI, 2022)
[Abstract] Service Learning is a methodology in which students achieve academic and transversal competences related to the curriculum of a subject while performing a service for the benefit of the community. With the ...
