NEW APPROACHES TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGIES

New approaches to the development of construction technologies

The paper presents data on the volume of materials consumed by builders and the carbon dioxide emissions that occur during this process.The reasons for the formation and volume of construction debris are considered.Recycling technologies currently used in the demolition of buildings are associated with crushing.The resulting concrete mix is used on

Improvement of Antitumor Therapies Based on Vaccines and Immune-Checkpoint Inhibitors by Counteracting Tumor-Immunostimulation

Immune-checkpoint inhibitors and antitumor vaccines may produce both tumor-inhibitory and tumor-stimulatory effects on growing tumors depending on the stage of tumor growth at which treatment is initiated.These paradoxical results are not necessarily incompatible with current tumor immunology but they might better be explained assuming the involvem

Morphological variation and life history changes of a Daphnia hyalina population exposed to Chaoborus flavicans larvae predation (L. Candia, Northern Italy)

The response of Daphnia populations to invertebrate predators involves morphological changes and can lead to a trade-off between growth- and reproduction-related traits.The effects of Chaoborus flavicans larvae on the Daphnia hyalina population in Lake Candia were investigated by comparing the morphometric characteristics and life history traits of
