Efectos de la exposición crónica al etanol sobre el tráfico intracelular y citoesqueleto como factores implicados en la migración neuronal
2013
El consumo de etanol durante la gestación puede inducir una serie de alteraciones graves en el desarrollo del feto, la manifestación más extrema da lugar al Síndrome Alcohólico Fetal (SAF). La exposición prenatal al alcohol es la causa conocida y, además evitable, más importante de retraso mental en el mundo occidental. Además de déficits cognitivos, los niños con SAF presentan múltiples anomalías estructurales en el sistema nervioso central, como reducción de la masa cerebral, y a nivel celular, daños en la migración neuronal, en el proceso de formación de espinas dendríticas y establecimiento de sinapsis. En la actualidad, los mecanismos moleculares implicados en la teratogénesis inducida…

The demixing behavior of 20 representatives of the system oligo(dimethylsiloxane)/oligo(propylene glycol) (ODMS/OPG)1 is investigated at pressures up to 1 500 bar. The degrees of oligomerization range from 2 to 5 for the first and from 1 to 57, 6 for the second component. The experimental results are compared with those for the previously studied system oligoisobutene/oligo(propylene glycol) (OIB/OPG). In both cases the observed upper critical temperatures Tc increase with the number of monomeric units of the less polar component, whereas they run through a minimum when the number of monomeric units of the glycol is raised. For the present system the Tc values are found to be considerably h…
Green synthesis of Pd@graphene nanocomposite: Catalyst for the selective oxidation of alcohols
2016
Abstract Due to their excellent physicochemical properties and synergistic effect, graphene metallic NPs based nanocomposites have gained significant attention in various technological fields including catalysis. Here we demonstrate a single pot, facile and environmental friendly synthesis of catalytically active palladium(Pd)@graphene nanocomposites (SP-HRG-Pd) by the simultaneous reduction of graphene oxide (GRO) and PdCl 2 using Salvadora persica L. (miswak) root extract (RE) as bioreductant. The synthesis of SP-HRG-Pd was confirmed by various spectroscopic and microscopic techniques, including ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), Raman and X-ray photoelectro…
Organic synthesis of high added value molecules with MOF catalysts
2020
Recent examples of organic synthesis of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals in confined spaces of MOFs are highlighted and compared with silica-based ordered porous solids, such as zeolites or mesoporous (organo)silica. These heterogeneous catalysts offer the possibility of stabilizing the desired transition states and/or intermediates during organic transformations of functional groups and (C-C/C-N) bond forming steps towards the desired functional high added value molecular scaffolds. A short introduction on zeolites, mesoporous silica and metal-organic frameworks is followed by relevant applications in which confined active sites in the pores promote single or multi-step organic synthesis…

Scalable heterogeneous synthesis of metallic nanoparticles and aggregates with polyvinyl alcohol
2009
Here we report on a new route to synthesize colloidal silver and gold nanoparticles, potentially scalable for massive nanoparticle-production. This method is based on the microwave-assisted heterogeneous reduction of the metal salts with polyvinylalcohol. The reaction is carried out in alcohols, which are non-solvents for polyvinylalcohol. Nanoparticles can be very easily separated by filtration. The reaction kinetics are extremely fast. Size-controlled formation of nanoparticle agglomerates is accomplished with a seed-mediated synthesis of nanoparticles upon MW exposure.
The role of distannoxanes in the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate from carbon dioxide
2003
Abstract The synthesis, characterization, and reactivity of 1,3-dimethoxytetrabutyldistannoxane were investigated in connection to the mechanism of the selective synthesis of dimethyl carbonate from CO2 and methanol. A new distannoxane, 1-methoxy-3-methylcarbonatotetrabutyldistannoxane, resulting from a 1:1 adduct with CO2 was isolated and characterised by volumetry, multinuclear NMR and IR spectroscopies. When this compound was submitted to 20 MPa of CO2 at 423 K in toluene no dimethyl carbonate was formed, conversely to dibutyldimethoxystannane. However, when methanol was the solvent, dimethyl carbonate was selectively produced. A promoting effect of Si(OCH3)4 was evidenced through methox…
Mise en évidence d'une production de protéases exocellulaires par les levures au cours de la fermentation alcoolique du moût de raisin
1980
<p style="text-align: justify;">La durée d'activité très limitée dans le temps des protéases du raisin est confirmée en vinification en blanc, mais une nouvelle activité protéolytique peut être caractérisée à 37 °C et à pH 3,7 dans le moût au cours de la fermentation alcoolique.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Cette activité doit être attribuée à des protéases exocellulaires libérées dans le milieu des levures. Parmi les souches essayées <em>S. bayanus</em> a une activité protéolytique plus importante que <em>S. cerevisiae</em>, ce qui se traduit par l'obtention de vins plus riches en azote soluble, donc plus stables du point de vue protéique et …
Characterization of functional groups of airborne particulate matter
2013
Particulate matter of organic combustibles burning consists of various hydrocarbons and radicals, which may cause harmful impact to human health. In this study solid particulate matter were collected on the filters from burning of various combustibles in a burning chamber and from atmosphere of city of Riga by dichotomous impactor. FTIR spectra were obtained before and after samples' treatment. Absorptions associated with aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons and alcohol functional groups were observed in the FTIR spectra. Free radicals of particulate matter were detected by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR).
Anionic halide···alcohol clusters in the solid state.
2014
The cationic (1,3,5-triazapentadiene)Pt(II) complexes [1](Cl)2, [2](Cl)2, [3](Br)2, and [4](Cl)2, were crystallized from ROH-containing systems (R = Me, Et) providing alcohol solvates studied by X-ray diffraction. In the crystal structures of [1-4][(Hal)2(ROH)2] (R = Me, Et), the Hal(-) ion interacts with two or three cations [1-4](2+) by means of two or three or four contacts thus uniting stacked arrays of complexes into the layers. The solvated MeOH or EtOH molecules occupy vacant space, giving contacts with [1-4](2+), and connects to the Hal(-) ion through a hydrogen bridge via the H(1O)O(1S) H atom forming, by means of the Hal(-)···HOR (Hal = Cl, Br) contact, the halide-alcohol cluster.…
