Les rejets des industries de transformation laitiere sont caracterises par leur charge polluante elevee due a leur richesse en lactose et en mineraux. L’expansion des activites industrielles se heurte a des exigences environnementales de plus en plus strictes en termes de normes de rejet. Les solutions presentement adoptees par les transformateurs laitiers sont peu ou […]

Neurons situated in a brain region called the hippocampus have been discovered to represent information related to numerous aspects of space and navigation. The activity of these neurons is referred to as the cognitive map, a complex brain representation of space, navigation and other associated physical clues. The aim of this project is to design, […]

Globally, obesity continues to be a growing public health challenge and has been associated with cardiometabolic diseases including cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. Current strategies aimed at reducing these cardiometabolic diseases include treatments aimed at controlling hypertension, insulin resistance and dyslipidemia. In more severe cases, bariatric surgery is used to decrease […]

The detection of specific carbohydrates is critical for several processes including biofuel production, textile finishing, food production and human health. These carbohydrates play roles in human health including stem cell differentiation, genetic diseases, and viral infection (i.e., COVID-19). Presently, the largest barrier to understanding the role carbohydrates play in human health is the lack of […]
