Wine Consumption and Oral Cavity Cancer: Friend or Foe, Two Faces of Janus
2020
The health benefits of moderate wine consumption have been extensively studied during the last few decades. Some studies have demonstrated protective associations between moderate drinking and several diseases including oral cavity cancer (OCC). However, due to the various adverse effects related to ethanol content, the recommendation of moderate wine consumption has been controversial. The polyphenolic components of wine contribute to its beneficial effects with different biological pathways, including antioxidant, lipid regulating and anti-inflammatory effects. On the other hand, in the oral cavity, ethanol is oxidized to form acetaldehyde, a metabolite with genotoxic properties. This rev…
Educación Física bilingüe y pedagogía crítica: una aplicación basada en el Judo
2015
Considering the impact that the introduction of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) is having in Europe, this paper presents a model of application for Physical Education in English. This model improves particularly the acquisition of a foreign language and proposes at the same time a comprehensive learning scenario based on the principles of the critical pedagogy. From the 4Cs framework of CLIL methodology («content», «communication», «culture» and «cognition») the paper offers an in-depth reflection on the possibilities of introducing the critical pedagogy approach to Physical Education, thus increasing its educational potential. First, we argue about the links between critica…
Thermodynamic Interaction Parameters for the System Water/NMMO Hydrate
2008
Vapor pressures of water were measured for aqueous solutions of N-methyl-morpholine N-oxide (NMMO) at 80, 90 and 100 degrees C. The Flory-Huggins interaction parameters, chi, calculated from these data as a function of phi, the volume fraction of NMMO, are negative at all concentrations; at low phi, they decrease by more than a factor of 2 as T is raised, whereas they remain almost unchanged as phi approaches unity. Accordingly, the heat of mixing is pronouncedly endothermal at low NMMO concentrations but close to athermal at low water content. The composition dependence of chi can be equally well described by the Redlich-Kister equation and by an approach subdividing the mixing process int…
Mößbauer- und ESCA-Untersuchungen zur Bildung oxidischer Eisenphasen in wäßrigen Medien unter der Einwirkung organischer Korrosionsinhibitoren
1982
Korrosionsschichten auf Stahl nach Exposition in Wasser mit bestimmter Harte und Chloridgehalt wurden hinsichtlich der Wirksamkeit beigefugter organischer Inhibitoren mittels Mosbauer- und ESCA-Spektroskopie untersucht. Es entstehen relativ dicke Schichten mit einem unerwartet niedrigen Eisengehalt in Form von FeOOH. Die Schichten enthalten merkliche Mengen von Ionen aus der Testlosung und auch Abbauprodukte der Inhibitormolekule. Letztere werden anscheinend in dem korrosiven Medium zersetzt. Es ist anzunehmen, das das Gesamtmolekul zwar den Transport des Inhibitors zum Metall beeinflust, die eigentliche Inhibierung aber allein durch funktionelle Gruppen erfolgt. Mossbauer and ESCA investig…

New trials in the consolidation of waterlogged archaeological wood with different acetone-carried products
2011
Some acetone-carried consolidants for waterlogged archaeological wood were tested in order to evaluate treatments able to save time and energy. In details, colophony (rosin), two esterified colophonies (Rosin 100® and Rosin 459®), a mixture of colophony with PEG 3400 and a vinyl acetate - vinyl versate copolymer (Vinavil 8020S®) were tested. The treatments were carried out at temperatures of 20 and 35 °C on waterlogged maritime pine, elm, oak and beech. The materials came from the archaeological Site of the ancient ships of Pisa (Tuscany, Italy) and were dated back to VII cent. BC II cent. AD. To evaluate the processes, equilibrium moisture content and dimensional stability of treated woo…
POROSITY DETERMINATION WITH HELIUM PYCNOMETRY AS A METHOD TO CHARACTERIZE WATERLOGGED WOODS AND THE EFFICACY OF THE CONSERVATION TREATMENTS
2012
The helium pycnometer allows us to measure the cell-wall density of dry woods and the basic density of wood samples soaked with water and/or a consolidant solution if a non-volatile solvent is used. These parameters were correlated to the porosity, which for degraded waterlogged wood is related to the maximum water content. Moreover, this has revealed the possibility of investigating, by means of accurate cell-wall density determination, the efficacy of several consolidants in the treatment of waterlogged woods.
Characterization of water mobility in dry and wetted roasted coffee using low-field proton nuclear magnetic resonance
2007
Abstract Roasted and ground coffee was studied by low-field 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance at various water contents and temperatures. The spin–spin relaxation times ( T 2 ) were measured with single pulse free induction decay (FID) and Carr–Purcell–Meiboom–Gill (CPMG) sequences. Four relaxing components were distinguished: the solid population was observed with FID sequence at T 2s ∼9 μs; the other three populations, measured with the CPMG sequence, corresponded to an apolar phase, the coffee oil, and two polar phases. The two polar populations, observed at T 2m ∼6 ms and ∼27 ms (for coffee with 50% water content at 90 °C) were attributed to water in cell wall polymers and in water filling…
Faces of companies: Personalization of corporate coverage in crisis and non-crisis periods
2020
Journalists need to make complex economic issues comprehensible for their readers. One possibility to do so is using personalization and putting company representatives (e.g. CEO, spokesperson) instead of the company as an organization in the focus of their work. Especially in times of crisis, the use of personalization could increase because crises are often associated with great uncertainty and complexity. Therefore, this study examines personalization in corporate coverage during crisis and non-crisis periods. To this end, we analyzed the coverage of four different German print media before, during, and after six selected corporate crises using a quantitative content analysis. The study…
