Anti-Bacterial Activity and Online HPLC-DPPH Based Antiradical Kinetics of Medicinal Plant Extracts of High Relevance for Cosmetics Production
2018
The present study provides an assessment of extracts of six medicinal plants for their applicability in cosmetic formulations aimed at anti-UV protection and anti-acne treatment. Ethanol extracts of Chelidonium majus L., Myrtus communis L., Hamamelis virginiana L., Juniperus communis L., Alchemilla vulgaris and Ilex paraguariensis are analysed for the phytochemical content, antimicrobial activity, antiradical activity and antiradical kinetics. The phytochemical composition of the plants is investigated by LC-MS analysis and the most active antioxidants in plant extracts are determined by online HPLC-DPPH assay. The kinetic parameters of the antiradical reaction are determined both for the s…
Stirring-assisted dead-end ultrafiltration for protein and polyphenol recovery from purple sweet potato juices: Filtration behavior investigation and…
2016
The potential of stirring assisted dead-end ultrafiltration (UF) to recover polyphenols from purple sweet potato (PSP) juices was evaluated. For this purpose, the effects of rotation speed (200–600 rpm), transmembrane pressure (TMP) (0.2–0.4 MPa), and membrane molecular weight cut-off (30–100 kDa) were investigated with a lab-scale filtration module. The results showed that the highest protein removal (86%) and polyphenol selectivity (12.2) were both obtained under higher rotation speed (600 rpm). Moreover, filtration flux was more important at 600 rpm due to the anti-fouling effect of shear rate generated by the rotation. The results also revealed that under TMP of 0.4 MPa, the cake resist…

Las técnicas de reproducción asistida en la jurisprudencia y en el cine de los Óscar
2018
El paso del tiempo y los grandes avances técnicos han dado lugar a que se puedan tener hijos no solo de forma biológica o por adopción sino también mediante otras técnicas o tratamientos médicos que facilitan el embarazo cuando éste no se consigue de forma natural. Actualmente, los principales tratamientos de fertilidad son la inseminación artificial y la fecundación in vitro (FIV). En este artículo se abordan las técnicas de reproducción asistida desde dos puntos de vista: el fílmico, analizando algunas películas que han sido nominadas a los Óscar en época reciente; y el jurídico, viendo la regulación legal y algunas de las sentencias más relevantes existentes hasta la fecha sobre este tem…
Computations on electroactive molecular materials: from donor–acceptor architectures to supramolecular polymers
2017
En la presente tesis, se ha realizado un estudio teórico exhaustivo sobre una gran variedad de sistemas moleculares electroactivos con propiedades ópticas, electónicas y de autoensamblaje interesantes para ser explotadas en electrónica molecular y ciencia de nuevos materiales. Los resultados del trabajo de investigación se resumen en tres secciones de acuerdo con: Arquitecturas dador–acceptor covalentes Se han caracterizado teóricamente las propiedades electrónicas y ópticas de cromóforos dador–aceptor que absorben luz en todo el espectro visible. En particular, los cálculos DFT han proporcionado información sobre los regioisómeros más interesantes de exTTF-DCF para obtener un máximo benefi…
Nuevas vías de depósito, nuevos proyectos: consolidación del repositorio institucional RODERIC
2017
El objetivo de este artículo es dar a conocer los nuevos proyectos del repositorio institucional de la Universitat de València, RODERIC, así como las nuevas vías de depósito de documentos de investigación. Para ello, se analizan las distintas actuaciones dentro del apartado de investigación del repositorio. En primer lugar, las centradas en el área de revistas editadas en la UV, los proyectos sobre digitalización de tesis retrospectivas y publicación de tesis corrientes, y finalmente la integración del sistema CRIS con el repositorio. Se acaba con la descripción de una serie de mejoras que se prevén están disponibles en la segunda mitad de 2013. The aim of this paper is to present new proje…
La transformación de DICAT: el potencial de la visualización digital de redes para el teatro clásico español
2021
This paper analyses and proposes the steps to transform Diccionario biográfico de actores del teatro clásico español DICAT in order to be federated on ASODAT system of databases. We intend to assess whether or not the visualization of nets may be a useful and operational tool to analysing the biographical and professional information established between actors and actress of early modern Spanish theater, and to show patterns of social relation. Este artículo analiza y propone los pasos para transformar el Diccionario biográfico de actores del teatro clásico español DICAT para que pueda ser federado en el sistema de bases de datos ASODAT. Se pretende evaluar si la visualización de redes pued…
Managing an online survey about influenza vaccination in primary healthcare workers
2015
Online surveys are increasingly used due to their speed and efficiency. The aim of this study was to analyze factors that may have contributed to the quality and speed of response of an online survey on influenza vaccination in primary healthcare workers. A multicenter study including family physicians, nurses and pediatricians from primary healthcare teams from seven Spanish Autonomous Communities was designed. The centers were selected by simple random sampling. The survey remained active and accessible for 56 days and four reminders were sent. The odds ratios (OR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated to assess the association of sociodemographic variables and respondin…
Tannin analysis of chestnut bark samples (Castanea sativa Mill.) by HPLC-DAD-MS.
2014
In the present investigation, an HPLC-DAD/ESI-MS method for the complete analysis of tannins and other phenolic compounds of different commercial chestnut bark samples was developed. A total of seven compounds (vescalin, castalin, gallic acid, vescalagin, 1-O-galloyl castalagin, castalagin and ellagic acid) were separated and quantified, being 1-O-galloyl castalagin tentatively identified and found for the first time in chestnut bark samples. Thus, this method provided information regarding the composition and quality of chestnut bark samples, which is required since these samples are commercialised due to their biochemical properties as ingredients of food supplements.
Comparative HPLC/ESI-MS and HPLC/DAD study of different populations of cultivated, wild and commercial Gentiana lutea L.
2015
The root of Gentiana lutea L., famous for its bitter properties, is often used in alcoholic bitter beverages, food products and traditional medicine to stimulate the appetite and improve digestion. This study presents a new, fast, and accurate HPLC method using HPLC/ESI-MS and HPLC/DAD for simultaneous analysis of iridoids (loganic acid), secoiridoids (gentiopicroside, sweroside, swertiamarin, amarogentin) and xanthones (isogentisin) in different populations of G.lutea L., cultivated in the Monti Sibillini National Park, obtained wild there, or purchased commercially. Comparison of HPLC/ESI-MS and HPLC/DAD indicated that HPLC/ESI-MS is more sensitive, reliable and selective. Analysis of twe…
