IV International Symposium of Student Scientific Circles: Environment - Plant - Animal - Product Abstracts
April 2023
TLDR Custom skincare can be made based on genes, fewer cats in Lublin have FeLV/FIV than national average, and studies also looked at small water bodies, river pollution, guppy growth, toxins in biochars, palm oil issues, and pumpkin seed oil for hair strength.
The document summarizes research from the IV International Symposium of Student Scientific Circles, covering a range of topics. One study emphasizes personalized cosmetology, suggesting that genetic and epigenetic profiles can be used to customize skincare products, with specific genes like MMP-1, MMP-3, TERT, BCMO1, and AQP being key to skin aging and regeneration. Another study tested 75 cats for FeLV and FIV, finding a lower prevalence in the Lublin voivodeship than the national average, indicating a minor impact on domestic cat population size. The document also explores the ecological significance of small water bodies, pollution around the Bystrzyca River, growth rates of guppy fry, and the presence of PAHs and furans in biochars from biodegradable waste. It touches on the environmental concerns of palm oil production and the potential benefits of pumpkin seed oil, which contains phytosterols, for hair follicle strength.
