Influence of the methodology of inoculation in the performance of air-breathing microbial fuel cells

2017

In this work, four air-breathing microbial fuel cells (AB-MFC) were operated for 1 month in order to determine if the methodology of inoculation affects the steady-state performance of this type of MFCs. For this purpose, anaerobic and aerobic sludge were fed to two identical AB-MFCs without any external carbon source into a tight sealed environment during the first three days of start-up. For comparison purposes, other two AB-MFCs were operated mixing the initial sludge and an amount of sodium acetate as substrate. Results point out that the inoculation procedure does not affect the steady-state treatment capacity of the cells but it affects very seriously the production of electricity. On…

Effect of sequential inoculum of beta-glucosidase positive and probiotic strains on brine fermentation to obtain low salt sicilian table olives

2019

In the present study, the β-glucosidase positive strain Lactobacillus plantarum F3. 3 was used as starter during the fermentation of Sicilian table olives (Nocellara Etnea cultivar) at two different salt concentrations (5 and 8%), in order to accelerate the debittering process. The latter was monitored through the increase of hydroxytyrosol compound. In addition, the potential probiotic Lactobacillus paracasei N24 strain was added after 60 days of fermentation. Un-inoculated brine samples at 5 and 8% of salt were used as control. The fermentation was monitored till 120 days through physico-chemical and microbiological analyses. In addition, volatile organic compounds and sensorial analyses …

Biofilm formation of listeria monocytogenes strains under food processing environments and pan-genome-wide association study

2019

International audience; Concerns about food contamination by Listeria monocytogenes are on the rise with increasing consumption of ready-to-eat foods. Biofilm production of L. monocytogenes is presumed to be one of the ways that confer its increased resistance and persistence in the food chain. In this study, a collection of isolates from foods and food processing environments (FPEs) representing persistent, prevalent, and rarely detected genotypes was evaluated for biofilm forming capacities including adhesion and sessile biomass production under diverse environmental conditions. The quantity of sessile biomass varied according to growth conditions, lineage, serotype as well as genotype bu…

Preferencias adaptativas: un obstáculo pendiente para la renta básica

2019

Resumen La renta básica proporciona a la ciudadanía una autonomía económica que se traduce en una libertad real para conducir sus vidas. Sin embargo, en este artículo defiendo que la renta básica no sería efectiva en situaciones de pobreza donde se generan preferencias adaptativas en las personas. Para mostrarlo analizaré las bases psicológicas del comportamiento de personas con preferencias adaptativas. A continuación, abordaré qué estrategias son las indicadas para revertir la situación de preferencias adaptativas. Implementar estas políticas permitirá que la renta básica pueda empoderar también a los más pobres.

Mākoņpakalpojumu sniedzēju salīdzinājums “TIA” apdrošināšanas sistēmai

2021

Mūsdienās vairākas organizācijas vēlas atteikties no savas infrastruktūras, pārceļot izmantotos risinājumus mākoņpakalpojumu sniedzēju platformās, lai nodrošinātu labāku ātrdarbību, mērogojamību, pieejamību vai, piemēram, vienkārši samazinātu sistēmu uzturēšanas izmaksas. Autors ir piedalījies projektā, kurā tika veikta TIA Technology izstrādātās apdrošināšanas sistēmas TIA tehniskā analīze paralēli tās izstrādei ar mērķi to migrēt uz mākoņpakalpojumu platformu Microsoft Azure vai Oracle Cloud, analīzes rezultātā attiecīgajai TIA implementācijai arī veicot visu izstrādes procesā iesaistīto komponenšu migrāciju uz Oracle Cloud. Šī darba gaitā autors apskatīja Oracle Cloud un Microsoft Azure …

Navettes domicile-travail : naissance et développement d’un objet statistique structurant

2017

International audience; Ce travail s’applique à retracer l’histoire des "navettes" ou "migrations alternantes" en tant qu’objet statistique. Nous partons du constat que l’objet navette, depuis sa naissance dans les années 1930, a pris une importance grandissante dans les études de géographie urbaine et de mobilité quotidienne. Alors que cet objet a très peu évolué dans son mode de production, son domaine de validité s’est considérablement étendu. Sur la base de ce constat, nous cherchons à comprendre les raisons de la montée en importance de cet objet statistique et nous analysons les constructions empiriques et théoriques sur lesquelles s’appuie l’extension de son domaine de validité. Nous…

Avoiding tunnel collisions between fibular collateral ligament and ACL posterolateral bundle reconstruction

2010

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the risk of tunnel collisions of the fibular collateral ligament (FCL) and posterolateral bundle anterior cruciate ligament (PLB-ACL) tunnels during a combined FCL and double-dundle (DB) ACL reconstruction. METHODS: Thirty-six 4th-generation synthetic femurs (Sawbones, Pacific Research Laboratories, Vashon, WA) were utilized, and two different femur sizes were used. A FCL tunnel and a PLB-ACL tunnel were reamed on each femur. The tunnels of synthetic specimens that did not have a collision were filled with an epoxy resin augmented with BaSO(4) and radiographic evaluation, and Multidetector CT exams of the specimens were performed. RESULTS: …
