AB  - Cerebral hypoperfusion (CH) is recognised as a contributor to various impairments characteristic for elderly population and patients with vascular dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. CH-induced brain damage is linked with oxidative stress in the cells that can cause DNA fragmentation and cell death, reflected through a change in cells’ morphology. Our study investigated the beneficial effects of progesterone (P4), a hormone with neuroprotective properties, against CH-induced oxidative stress and neurodegenerative pathologies in rat prefrontal cortex (PFC). For the purpose of the experiment, adult male Wistar rats were dived into groups: (I) animals subjected to permanent bilateral occlusion of common carotid arteries (2VO) treated with vehicle (commercial flax oil, 1 mg/kg/day), (II) animals subjected to 2VO treated with P4 dissolved in vehicle (1.7 mg/kg/day) and (III) animals subjected to sham operation treated with vehicle. Animals were sacrificed after 7 subcutaneous treatments. Levels of pro-/antioxidant balance (PAB) and DNA fragmentation along with cell morphology were estimated by well-defined methods. The results revealed that P4 administration moderated CH-induced impairments in PFC, not only by decreasing PAB level and diminishing DNA fragmentation, but also preserving the cell morphology reflected through clearly defined cell bodies, with round nuclei, prominent nucleolus and visible Nissl bodies in layer III. Obtained results point out that P4 is able to attenuate CH-induced pro-oxidant state and subsequent changes in PFC. This hormone holds promise as an effective agent for the CH treatment, still, its specific actions remain to be discovered.

AB  - Polymer matrix composites (PMCs) are very attractive materials due to a possibility to achieve versatile properties by combining with ceramic or metal reinforcement in different shapes and sizes. As a result, PMCs have found application in nearly every field, from household appliances to aerospace industry. Modern microelectronic devices contain conductive polymers with fillers that enhance their electrical properties. In addition, PMCs are being used as insulators and adhesives, contributing to the long life of electronic devices. Epoxy resins are the most commonly used insulators and adhesives. In order to improve their fracture toughness, glass fibers can be used as an efficient reinforcement. However, with the purpose of designing a composite with good mechanical properties and durability, deep knowledge of microstructure is required. In addition, microstructural analysis can be used to connect shape and size of pores or reinforcement with various physical properties. Fractal nature analysis is a valuable mathematical tool that can be employed for different shapes and forms rendering. In this manner, successful design and prediction of composite’s properties could be obtained. In this research, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) images were used for fractal analysis of glass fibers, with the aim of reconstructing the shape.

AB  - Increased plastic usage creates environmental problems due to its accumulation and degradation into microplastic particles (MP), less than 5 mm in diameter. Particles from various sources like food and beverages contaminated with polyethylene terephthalate (PET) could accumulate in different tissues exerting adverse effects. Since data regarding potential acute toxicity in doses that represent realistic/daily ingested MP doses are entirely lacking, male Wistar rats were exposed to a single dose (1.4, 35 or 125 mg/kg) of PET-generated MP by oral gavage. Changes in wet organ weight to body weight ratio of testicles, adrenal glands and kidneys were examined 24 h following the treatment. Results point to increased organ/body weight ratio of testicles in rats exposed to two higher MP doses, while adrenal glands were augmented only after treatment with 125 mg/kg. Further research is needed to gain insight into the underlying mechanisms of the observed phenomenon.

AB  - Nowadays, there is a very high importance of composite research and variety of their applications in the modern world. In that sense, we researched hollow glass capillaries filled with dissolved Grubbs catalyst (GC) and dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) were incorporated into a fiber-reinforced epoxy with the aim of improving the flow of healing agents to the crack site. The morphological investigation of the crack site was performed using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), showing the difference between the samples depending on the used solvent. The software analysis of sample photographs has been performed by calculating the fractured/ healed surface area of the samples, revealing that approximately 20% of the volume was affected by the impact. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) revealed that poly (dicyclopentadiene) (PDCPD) formed at the healed interface. However, the FTIR investigation of catalyst stability in different solvents showed structural changes in GC and partial deactivation. The mechanical tests of the samples showed that a recovery of 60% after 24 h at room temperature could be achieved through the use of a solvent and very low concentration of GC. The performed research results are a good base to develop the model for predicting the processes and morphology, with the goal to design the final mechanical and in the future, thermal, properties in advance. This opens a new direction for future research in the field of composite healing.
