DOI: 10.1016/j.jbmt.2020.12.038
Abstract: INTRODUCTION Acupoints have bioelectrical properties distinct from common skin. Besides the higher electrical conductivity and lower resistance, acupoints show capacitor-like properties, which can be related to their endogenous electrical potential. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) postulates… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijerph16111889
Abstract: To ensure high fermentation efficiency, it is necessary to assess the biodegradability of a substrate. These parameters are most often determined on the basis of the amount of loss on ignition and total organic carbon.… read more here.
