THE ROLE OF ECOLOGICAL FACTORS IN FREE-RANGE ANIMAL FARMING: IMPLICATIONS FOR FEASIBILITY AND ANIMAL WELFARE
Ecological conditions play a crucial role in the success and sustainability of free-range animal farming. Factors such as climate, vegetation, water availability, and terrain directly influence not only the feasibility of managing animals in open or semi-open systems but also the quality of their welfare. In restrictive environments like cages or s...

ECOLOGICAL, ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL DIMENSIONS OF CIRCULAR BUSINESS MODELS
The need for new business models based on the principles of sustainability and efficient resource use in modern economic conditions is becoming increasingly evident. These business models strive to eliminate the fundamental weaknesses of the linear economy, such as uncontrolled extraction of natural resources, irreversible waste generation, and the...

POSSIBILITIES AND ASPECTS OF INTEGRATION IN PUBLIC HEALTH CARE
The integration of public health institutions illustrates an insufficiently implemented process, and the public health network is not based on functional integration. There are barriers between public health institutions, and their removal has not yet met the needs of users. Legal provisions provided opportunities for integrating health in...

IMPLEMENTATION OF A PASSIVE RC LOW-PASS FILTER FOR EMBEDDED IOT SYSTEMS WITH OPEN-SOURCE SIMULATION SUPPORT
In this study, we explore the design, simulation, and deployment of a passive RC low-pass filter, specifically targeting its integration within Internet of Things (IoT) applications. We employed a symbolic computing environment to theoretically model the filter's frequency response, analytically deriving the transfer function and numerically valida...

IMPACT OF TREHALOSE-BASED CRYOPROTECTANT ON IMMOBILIZATION AND RELEASE OF LACTOBACILLUS PLANTARUM OBTAINED FOR WOUND DRESSING
Lactobacillus plantarum has been increasingly studied and applied in the context of wound healing and wound dressings, thanks to its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and biofilm-disrupting properties. In some approaches, lyophilized (freeze-dried) L. plantarum is applied as a powder or mixed with a carrier to facilitate topical delivery. L. plant...

EFFECT OF FREEZING ON PHYSICO-CHEMICAL, ANTIOXIDANT, AND SENSORY PROPERTIES OF HONEYDEW HONEY
Freezing food slows down the physico-chemical and biochemical reactions in food. In honey, freezing is primarily used to delay or halt crystallization, reduce viscosity, and preserve nutritional components. However, low temperatures may influence the physico-chemical, antioxidant, and sensory properties of honey. This study compares the properties...

SIMULATION OF ULTRAFAST FREE ELECTRON DYNAMICS AND TIME-DEPENDENT REFLECTIVITY IN SKIN-LIKE TISSUE MEDIA UNDER SHORTPULSE LASER EXCITATION
In this study, we investigate the ultrafast dynamics of free electrons in skin-like tissue media, stimulated by laser pulses with durations between 50 fs and 100 fs. Our analysis is based on a rate-equation approach for the evolution of free electron density under different laser pulse durations. The simulated electron densities are then used...
