A solid-phase extraction liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for the percutaneous absorption assessment of 3-(4′-methylbenzylidene)…

2013

The UV filter 3-(4′-methylbenzylidene)camphor (MBC) is a common ingredient in sunscreen cosmetic products. However, different in vitro and in vivo studies suggest that MBC can cause endocrine disrupting effects. This report focuses on the development of an analytical method based on solid-phase extraction (SPE) prior to liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for the determination of MBC and its main phase I metabolite, named 3-(4′-carboxybenzylidene)camphor (CBC), in urine from users of sunscreen cosmetic products containing MBC. The formation of phase II metabolites (i.e., glucuronide and sulphate conjugates) was also considered by carrying out an enzymatic hydrolysis of…

2021

Bakalaura darba temats: “ Pirmsskolas vecuma bērnu izziņas darbības motivācijas veicināšanas paņēmieni ”. Darba autore: Madara Klauģe. Darba mērķis ir noteikt rotaļu paņēmienu kā bērnu darbības motivācijas veicināšanas līdzekli. Mērķa sasniegšanai darba autore pēta dažādu literatūru, lai izpētītu motivācijas būtību, tās sekmēšanas pamatprincipus, iekšējās un ārējās motivācijas būtību (kādas darbības, vēlmes, izziņa un vajadzības to sekmē). Tika analizēta literatūra par bērna vecumposmiem un to vajadzībām šajā vecumposmā, lai noteiktu kāda vajadzība bērnam būtu jāsekmē, lai attīstītu viņa motivāciju uz darbību. Par teorētiskās daļas izstrādes bāzi tika izmantoti autoru pētījumi, kā V. Golumi…

Sensitivity and Specificity of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) 16 Early Antigen Serology for HPV-Driven Oropharyngeal Cancer: A Systematic Literature Revi…

2021

Simple Summary Serum antibodies against human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16) proteins are associated with HPV-driven oropharyngeal cancer (HPV-OPC). The HPV status of OPC cases is clinically relevant because patients with HPV-OPC show improved survival and treatment response compared to tobacco- or alcohol-induced OPC. In clinical settings, molecular HPV tumor status is usually determined by tissue-based methods detecting molecular markers, such as viral nucleic acids or p16 overexpression. Antibodies against HPV16 in peripheral blood were shown to be very accurate in determining the molecular HPV tumor status in multiple studies. In this work, we reviewed and summarized the available literature…

Image and Signal Processing Group

The ISP research group, http://isp.uv.es, has a long tradition in statistical analysis of data coming from imaging systems. These measurements depend on the properties of the scenes and the physics of the imaging process, and their relevance depends on the (natural or artificial) observer that will analyze the data. Our distinct approach to signal, image and vision processing combines machine learning theory with the understanding of the underlying physics and biological vision. Applications mainly focus on optical remote sensing and computational visual neuroscience. Empirical statistical inference, also known as machine learning, is a field of computer science interested in making predict…

Redescription of the forgotten New Caledonian weevil genus

2018

Abstract Callistomorphus is one of the “forgotten” genera of the tribe Eugnomini inhabiting rain forest in New Caledonia. In this paper, the genus Callistomorphus and the type species C.farinosus are redescribed. Eight new species, Callistomorphusfundatussp. n., C.gibbussp. n., C.malleussp. n., C.minimussp. n., C.rutaisp. n., C.szoltysisp. n., C.torosussp. n. and C.turbidussp. n., are described, originating from the main island of New Caledonia. Illustrations and SEM photographs of the external morphology and the male and female terminalia are provided, as well as dorsal habitus colour photographs of the adults, a key to the species, a distribution map, and a discussion of the systematic po…

Laboratory for the Study of Learning and Development

The LEAD is a cognitive psychology laboratory that studies the modifications of information processing processes following learning (implicit, didactic and professional) and development. The theoretical originality of the unit is to defend a parsimonious approach to cognition that differs from the dominant theoretical models. Basic research is complemented by research with direct implications in the field of health, and to a lesser extent, education and business. An increasing place is given to interdisciplinary studies. LEAD studies the mental activities that regulate our behavioural interactions with the environment. The development of these mental activities as well as their dysfunctions…

Interdisciplinary Public Policy Mainz

Public institutions can only use their various policy instruments productively if they are able to adequately assess the effect they have on human behavior. Thus, the design of effective institutions and policies requires not only an understanding of the relevant and often interdependent social, economic, political, and legal contexts and mechanisms but it also requires a deep knowledge about how human beings make decisions. In order to obtain the necessary insights, the Interdisciplinary Public Policy (IPP) Research Unit constituted at JGU in 2014 incorporates a number of different disciplines: economics, business administration, computer science, political science, sociology, communicatio…

Diacronía de fraseología andina: de malas, de buenas, mi Dios le pague y ave María

2020

En los últimos años, gran cantidad de estudios se han centrado en el campo de la fraseología. Estas unidades pluriverbales tienen una gran cantidad de aplicaciones como en el ámbito de ELE, la traducción o la pragmática. Este trabajo se centra en dos disciplinas que han abordado la fraseología tangencialmente, la diacronía y la dialectología. Así pues, se analizan cuatro locuciones propias del dialecto andino de Colombia desde la Historia de la Lengua. Estas unidades son de buenas, de malas, mi Dios le pague y Ave María. Para ello se ha tomado como punto de partida el habla de Medellín, capital de Antioquia, Colombia. De esta forma, se ha recopilado la información del CORDE y al NDHE respec…

2004

Objective To evaluate the frequency and type of vascular lesions and to study the association of factor V gene G1691A (Leiden) and prothrombin gene G20210A polymorphisms with venous thrombosis in Italian patients with Behcet's disease (BD). Methods Included were 118 consecutive Italian BD patients followed over a 3-year period (1997–1999) who satisfied the International Study Group criteria for BD. The control group consisted of 132 healthy Italian blood donors. All BD patients and controls were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction and allele-specific restriction enzyme techniques for factor V Leiden and prothrombin gene G20210A polymorphisms. Results Vascular lesions were observed in 37 …

European Centre of \nPalaeontology

A European research and education centre of palaeontology/palaeobiology, located in a palaeontological pavilion at Krasiejów near Opole. By now, Krasiejów has become a famous locality where Upper Triassic sedimentary rocks are exposed that have yielded large numbers of fossils, mostly vertebrates but also invertebrate and plant taxa. The Opole area is also well known for its Late Cretaceous (Turonian-Coniacian) marine fossils, mostly invertebrates, but rare vertebrate remains and plants have also been recorded. Close to Opole, Middle Triassic (Germanic facies, Muschelkalk) deposits are widely distributed as well, with profuse vertebrate and invertebrate fauna and ichnofossil assemblages. A …

Museo Geologico “Gaetano Giorgio Gemmellaro”

The Museum's patrimony consists of over 600.000 fossils divided into numerous collections. You can stand out some collections about Geological history of Sicily with fossils that span a time interval of over 270 million years and geological and paleontological collections from all over the world. The museum holds over a thousand holotypes (unique specimens on which the fossil species have been established). The exhibition area is divided into three floors. Among the exhibits you can appreciate a gypsum crystal containing a drop of water from the Mediterranean of 6 million years ago and the oldest human skeleton of Homo sapiens found in Sicily dated Upper Paleolithic.
