Tri-alkenyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes as comonomers and active center modifiers in ethylene copolymerization catalyzed by bis(phenoxy-imi…
2018
Abstract In copolymerization of ethylene (E) with tri-alkenyl-silsesquioxanes (POSS-6-3 and POSS-10-3) were used bis(phenoxy-imine) titanium, zirconium and vanadium catalysts, as well as salen-type vanadium catalysts. There were obtained copolymers with POSS-R-3 units as side branches of polymer chains. The type of employed bis(phenoxy-imine) titanium, zirconium and vanadium catalysts and salen-type catalyst of vanadium determined the copolymer chain termination reactions, as well as the mechanism of modification of the active species by the POSS-R-3 comonomer. POSS-R-3 comonomers caused selective poisoning of bis(phenoxy-imine) zirconium catalyst and they provided protection against tight …
Variable selection with unbiased estimation: the CDF penalty
2022
We propose a new SCAD-type penalty in general regression models. The new penalty can be considered a competitor of the LASSO, SCAD or MCP penalties, as it guarantees sparse variable selection, i.e., null regression coefficient estimates, while attenuating bias for the non-null estimates. In this work, the method is discussed, and some comparisons are presented.
Sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax (L.) bacterial infection and confinement stress acts on F-type lectin (DlFBL) serum modulation
2014
The F-lectin, a fucose-binding protein found from invertebrates to ectothermic vertebrates, is the last lectin family to be discovered. Here, we describe effects of two different types of stressors, bacterial infection and confinement stress, on the modulation of European sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax (L.) F-lectin (DlFBL), a well-characterized serum opsonin, using a specific antibody. The infection of the Vibrio alginolyticus bacterial strain increased the total haemagglutinating activity during the 16-day testing period. The DlFBL value showed an upward regulation on the first, second and last days and underwent a slight downward regulation 4 days post-challenge. In contrast, the effect o…
Kondrat'eva ligation: Diels-Alder-based irreversible reaction for bioconjugation.
2014
International audience; Diversification of existing chemoselective ligations is required to efficiently access complex and well-defined biomolecular assemblies with unique and valuable properties. The development and bioconjugation applications of a novel Diels-Alder-based irreversible site-specific ligation are reported. The strategy is based on a Kondrat'eva cycloaddition between bioinert and readily functionalizable 5-alkoxyoxazoles and maleimides that readily react together under mild and easily tunable reaction conditions to afford a fully stable pyridine scaffold. The potential of this novel bioconjugation is demonstrated through the preparation of fluorescent conjugates of biomolecul…
Presentations of constrained systems with unconstrained positions
2005
International audience; We give a polynomial-time construction of the set of sequences that satisfy a finite-memory constraint defined by a finite list of forbidden blocks, with a specified set of bit positions unconstrained. Such a construction can be used to build modulation/error-correction codes (ECC codes) like the ones defined by the Immink-Wijngaarden scheme in which certain bit positions are reserved for ECC parity. We give a lineartime construction of a finite-state presentation of a constrained system defined by a periodic list of forbidden blocks. These systems, called periodic-finite-type systems, were introduced by Moision and Siegel. Finally, we present a linear-time algorithm for con…

La mafia sui Nebrodi e le frodi europee nel settore agro-zootecnico: l'attività di contrasto alla luce dei recenti interventi legislativi
2020
The book is the research thesis of Gabriele Minì for the grants that the Falcone Foundation and the Sicilian Regional Assembly award annually to young graduates of Sicilian universities. It deals with the abuse of public funding of agriculture in the Monti Nebrodi area of Sicily (province of Messina).After an accurate indication of the mechanisms for obtaining European funding to support agricultural and zootechnical activities, the book describes the forms of illegal exploitation of this by mafia organisations. The analysis also refers to case studies and describes the most significant events in this field. In particular, it highlights the importance of administrative prevention tools that…
Simulations on the mechanism of CNT bundle growth upon smooth and nanostructured Ni as well as θ-Al2O3 catalysts
2011
Abstract In the current study, we have performed ab initio DFT calculations on the gradually growing 2D periodic models of capped single-wall carbon nanotubes (SW CNTs) upon their perpendicular junctions with the Ni(111) substrate, in order to understand the peculiarities of the initial stage of their growth on either smooth or nanostructured catalytic particles. Appearance of the adsorbed carbon atoms upon the substrate follows from the dissociation of CVD hydrocarbon molecules, e.g., CH4: (CH4)ads → (CH)ads+3Hads and (CH)ads → Cads+Hads. (Since the effective growth of CNTs upon Ni nanoparticles occur inside the nanopores of amorphous alumina, we have also simulated analogous surface react…
Gaia-ESO Survey: Global properties of clusters Trumpler 14 and 16 in the Carina nebula
2017
Aims: We present the first extensive spectroscopic study of the global population in star clusters Trumpler 16, Trumpler 14, and Collinder 232 in the Carina nebula, using data from the Gaia-ESO Survey, down to solar-mass stars. Methods: In addition to the standard homogeneous survey data reduction, a special processing was applied here because of the bright nebulosity surrounding Carina stars. Results: We find about 400 good candidate members ranging from OB types down to slightly subsolar masses. About 100 heavily reddened early-type Carina members found here were previously unrecognized or poorly classified, including two candidate O stars and several candidate Herbig Ae/Be stars. Their l…
HADES RV programme with HARPS-N at TNG: XII. The abundance signature of M dwarf stars with planets
2020
[Context] Most of our current knowledge on planet formation is still based on the analysis of main sequence, solar-type stars. Conversely, detailed chemical studies of large samples of M dwarfs hosting planets are still missing.
