Pharmacokinetic bioequivalence between (etonogestrel/ethinylestradiol 11.7/2.7 mg) NuvaRing ® and ornibel premium ® (etonogestrel/ethinylestradiol 8.25/2.6 mg), a novel polymer composition contraceptive vaginal ring

Objective This was a single-centre, randomised, single-ring insertion, 2-period, 2-sequence, crossover study designed to assess comparative bioavailability and thereby establish bioequivalence of two ethinylestradiol/etonogestrel vaginal rings (delivering 0.015/0.12 mg per day) a...

Effects of Replacing Concentrate Feed with Carob (Ceratonia siliqua) Pods on Growth Performance, Carcass Characteristics, Meat Quality, and Rumen Fermentation in Assaf Lambs

This study examined the effects of replacing 25% (P25) or 50% (P50) of concentrate dry matter (DM) with sun-dried carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) pods on growth performance, apparent nutrient digestibility, carcass traits, meat quality, serum biochemistry, and rumen microbiology in...

Nanotechnology-Enabled Remediation of Contaminated Soils: Mechanisms, Soil Constraints, Environmental Risks, and Implications for Sustainable Land Management

Engineered nanomaterials have been increasingly proposed for the treatment of contaminated soils. Nevertheless, most available evidence has been obtained in water, artificial substrates or short-term laboratory experiments, and performance in real soil is substantially more varia...
