      In the Southern Ocean, many parasites of vertebrates (mainly helminth groups) have been recognized as endemic species, but parasites of marine invertebrates remain almost unknown. It is reasonable to assume that digenean ...
    • Riquelme, N.; Zúñiga, R. N.; Arancibia, C. (Academic Press, 2019)
      Consumer demand for ‘natural’ products has led the food industry to substitute synthetic ingredients with others of natural origin. Nanoemulsions are thermodynamically unstable systems, so an emulsifier is necessary to ...
