Influencia cultural/religiosa en los accidentes de tráfico: Un estudio epidemiológico a través de la ciudad de Ceuta
2016
El contexto elegido para llevar a cabo este estudio es la ciudad de Ceuta y el periodo de referencia son los accidentes de tráfico contabilizados por la Policía Local durante los años 2000 - 2012. Ceuta, es una ciudad multicultural, en ella conviven a diario política, social, cultural y vialmente cuatro importantes culturas (la cristiana, la musulmana, la hebrea y la hindú), este modelo de convivencia cultural debería servir de ejemplo ya que, pese a las diferencias culturales y religiosas de cada una de ellas, los ciudadanos ceutíes demuestran que se puede llevar a cabo una vida en común donde el respeto y la tolerancia son valores innatos de la población y que se traspasan de generación e…
Pero Tafur and Bertradon de la Broquière in Constantinople: The Ceremonial Image of Mary of Trabzond and the Diplomatic Meetings around the Council o…
2019
After the fall of Constantinople (1453), Pero Tafur and Bertrandon de La Broquière make known their works, which are two of the most important travel books written in Europe during the fifteenth century. Both travellers had known, between fifteen and twenty years before, the emperor of Greece, John VIII Palaiologos, Pope Eugene IV and other protagonists of the councils of Basel (1431-1434) and Ferrara-Florence (1438-1439), which decreed the union between the Roman and Greek churches. The travellers were, thus, witnesses, but also informants and active diplomats for the attempts of religious and political union, which Pope Pius II tried to revive after the fall of Constantinople. Tafur and L…
La construcción de la experiencia del viaje en la escritura: figuras del escritor viajero contemporáneo
2014
Resumen: El presente trabajo propone un análisis de la representación del viaje en las obras literarias contemporáneas. Se parte de la hipótesis de que existe una relación entre la experiencia del viaje y su representación en la literatura. El objetivo de este ejercicio crítico es explicar este vínculo, señalando la importancia de la escritura como un espacio en el que se construye la experiencia del viaje. Palabras Clave: Guevara, Armada, Reverte, Kerouac, Chatwin, Krakauer, Kapucinski, viaje, transformación del sujeto, conocimiento, metaliteratura, intertextualidad. Abstract: This article proposes an analysis of the representation of the journey in contemporary literature. It’s assume…
Cyclopropanation of Membrane Unsaturated Fatty Acids Is Not Essential to the Acid Stress Response of Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris
2011
ABSTRACT Cyclopropane fatty acids (CFAs) are synthetized in situ by the transfer of a methylene group from S -adenosyl- l -methionine to a double bond of unsaturated fatty acid chains of membrane phospholipids. This conversion, catalyzed by the Cfa synthase enzyme, occurs in many bacteria and is recognized to play a key role in the adaptation of bacteria in response to a drastic perturbation of the environment. The role of CFAs in the acid tolerance response was investigated in the lactic acid bacterium Lactococcus lactis MG1363. A mutant of the cfa gene was constructed by allelic exchange. The cfa gene encoding the Cfa synthase was cloned and introduced into the mutant to obtain the comple…
Biodiversity and dairy traits of lactic acid bacteria from foliage of aromatic plants before and after dehydration process monitored by a smart senso…
2020
ABSTRACT The main hypothesis of this work was to evaluate the presence of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) intrinsically resistant to plant essential oils in sage (Salvia officinalis L.) and laurel (Laurus nobilis), for future applications in functional cheese production by addition of aromatic herbs. The effect of the drying process on the viability of LAB was evaluated with three biomass densities (3, 4 and 5 kg/m2). The drying densities did not affect weight loss, but influenced the levels of LAB of sage and laurel. A total of 10 different strains of Enterococcus faecium, Enterococcus mundtii, Enterococcus raffinosus and Leuconostoc mesenteroides were identified from laurel, while sage did not…
The glycosyltransferase activities of lysyl hydroxylase 3 (LH3) in the extracellular space are important for cell growth and viability.
2008
Abstract Lysyl hydroxylase (LH) isoform 3 is a post-translational enzyme possessing LH, collagen galactosyltransferase (GT) and glucosyltransferase (GGT) activities. We have demonstrated that LH3 is found not only intracellularly, but also on the cell surface and in the extracellular space, suggesting additional functions for LH3. Here we show that the targeted disruption of LH3 by siRNA causes a marked reduction of both glycosyltransferase activities, and the overexpression of LH3 in HT-1080 cells increases hydroxylation of lysyl residues and the subsequent galactosylation and glucosylation of hydroxylysyl residues. These data confirm the multi-functionality of LH3 in cells. Furthermore, t…

Active learning in a real-world bioengineering problem: A pilot-study on ophthalmologic data processing
2019
Active learning is a format alternative to the conventional lecture/recitation/laboratory; research results have reported that it is suitable to encourage student inquiry and foster peer mentoring. Although the availability of computer-based learning materials in biomedical sciences is increasing, there are relatively few studies aimed to integrate traditional methods of teaching with inquiry-based approaches utilizing these Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) tools. This paper describes a pilot-study on a comprehensive active laboratory course about digital ophthalmologic signal classification, experienced by a group of undergraduates in Bio-Electronic Engineering. During the …
Una corografia de la Ciutat i Regne de València a la Crónica de Viciana (1564-1566)
2001
La Crónica de la ínclita y coronada ciudad de Valencia y de su reino (1564-1566) constituye un extenso tratado histórico donde Rafael Martí de Viciana (1502-1582) alabó sus excelencias desde los tiempos de la conquista cristiana. Para escribir la Crónica, el autor visitó numerosos lugares para consultar sus archivos y aprovechó sus estancias para practicar un reconocimiento corográfico de las villas y ciudades. Por ello, la Crónica es una mezcla de narración histórica y de descripción corográfica de la ciudad y reino de Valencia. En la presente investigación, sólo se atiende a los aspectos descriptivos del territorio dispersos a lo largo de la Crónica. Para ello, primero se aporta un breve …
