Influence of brand image of a sports event on the recommendation of its participants
2020
The aim of this research is to test the psychometric properties and relationships of a model where, from brand congruence of a sport event, trust and commitment to it can be generated, influencing future behavior of participants and resulting in a higher recommendation also called Word of Mouth (hereinafter WOM). A quantitative approach has been carried out by means of a validated questionnaire with Likert-type responses, and data were analyzed with the EQS 6.4 software. The findings indicated that the model is adequate, and also confirm that from congruence, we can explain, at a theoretical level, 45% of trust, and in the same way, from the congruence and trust, we can explain 67% of the c…

Filtración directa por membranas para potenciar la recuperación de recursos de las aguas residuales
2023
La filtración directa mediante membranas (FDM) es una atractiva alternativa para potenciar la recuperación de recursos en el ámbito del tratamiento de aguas residuales municipales (ARM). El objetivo de esta tecnología es mejorar la recuperación del material particulado afluente de las ARM mediante la implementación de una unidad de filtración por membrana como paso previo al tratamiento biológico secundario, reduciendo así las necesidades energéticas asociadas a la oxidación aeróbica de la materia orgánica en los sistemas de fangos activos. Asimismo, el fango concentrado en el tanque de membranas puede emplearse para incrementar la producción de metano durante el proceso de digestión anaero…
Dziedzictwo kulturowe a marka regionu
2016
This article discusses the possibility of the use of cultural heritage in the process of branding of the region. The use of cultural heritage is extremely important because it is both unique and exceptional, and this creates a great opportunity for a clear distinction of the region from the competition. The article shows, among others, that cultural factors are beginning to play an important role in the location decisions of investors and is one of the key elements of competitive advantage.
CSR i jego znaczenie dla kształtowania relacji z klientami - w świetle wyników badań ankietowych
2016
Społeczna Odpowiedzialność Biznesu (CSR) jest nową, dynamicznie rozwijającą się koncepcją zakładającą równowagę między trzema wymiarami – ekonomicznym, społecznym i ekologicznym. Od przedsiębiorstwa oczekuje się nie tylko pomnażania zysków, ale również pełnego spojrzenia na otoczenie i pracowników. Społeczne zaangażowanie to obecnie, poza działalnością charytatywną, odpowiedź na potrzeby społeczności. Najważniejsze jest, by przedsiębiorstwa wdrożyły procesy, dzięki którym względy społeczne, środowiskowe i etyczne oraz kwestie praw człowieka staną się stałym elementem ich działalności i strategii biznesowej.
Mathematical modelling of Membrane Bioreactors
2015
Mathematical modelling of membrane bioreactors (MBRs) for wastewater treatment has targeted either the biological processes (treatment quality target) as well as various aspects of system management. However, the high number of interactions among the involved physical – chemical processes, hampers a straightforward mathematical modelling. This circumstance is much more emphasized for submerged MBR systems where the membrane is immersed in an aeration tank. One of the main crucial point that prevents a comprehensive understanding is the interpretation of the fouling phenomenon and its connections with the biological processes. An overall mathematical model for MBR has not been completely est…

Cytotoxic necrotizing factor type 2 produced by virulent Escherichia coli modifies the small GTP-binding proteins Rho involved in assembly of actin s…
1994
Cytotoxic necrotizing factor type 2 (CNF2) produced by Escherichia coli strains isolated from intestinal and extraintestinal infections is a dermonecrotic toxin of 110 kDa. We cloned the CNF2 gene from a large plasmid carried by an Escherichia coli strain isolated from a lamb with septicemia. Hydropathy analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence revealed a largely hydrophilic protein with two potential hydrophobic transmembrane domains. The N-terminal half of CNF2 showed striking homology (27% identity and 80% conserved residues) to the N-terminal portion of Pasteurella multocida toxin. Methylamine protection experiments and immunofluorescence studies suggested that CNF2 enters the cytosol…
Rho GTPases are over-expressed in human tumors.
1999
Small GTPases of the Rho family are involved in the regulation of a variety of cellular processes, such as the organization of the microfilamental network, cell-cell contact and malignant transformation. To address the question of whether Rho proteins are involved in carcinogenesis in man, we compared their expression in tumors from colon, breast and lung with that of the corresponding normal tissue originating from the same patient. As shown by Rho-specific 32P-ADP-ribosylation, as well as Western-blot analysis, the amount of RhoA protein was largely increased in all 3 types of tumors tested. The most dramatic differences in the expression of Rho GTPases were observed in breast tissue. All…
Targeting the mevalonate pathway for improved anticancer therapy.
2009
The mevalonate pathway is important for the generation of isoprene moieties thereby providing the basis for the biosynthesis of molecules required for maintaining membrane integrity, steroid production and cell respiration. Additionally, isoprene precursors are indispensable for the prenylation of regulatory proteins such as Ras and Ras-homologous (Rho) GTPases. These low molecular GTP-binding proteins play key roles in numerous signal transduction pathways stimulated upon activation of cell surface receptors by ligand binding. Thus, Ras/Rho proteins eventually regulate cell proliferation, tumor progression and cell death induced by anticancer therapeutics. Lipid modification of Ras/Rho pro…
