Insights into the compositional evolution of crustal magmatic systems from coupled petrological-geodynamical models
2020
Funding was provided by the VAMOS Research Center, University of Mainz (Germany) and by the ERC Consolidator Grant MAGMA (project #771143). The evolution of crustal magmatic systems is incompletely understood, as most studies are limited either by their temporal or spatial resolution. Exposed plutonic rocks represent the final stage of a long-term evolution punctuated by several magmatic events with different chemistry and generated under different mechanical conditions. Although the final state can be easily described, the nature of each magmatic pulse is more difficult to retrieve. This study presents a new method to investigate the compositional evolution of plutonic systems while consid…
Nursing: more used medicines in the emergency rooms of hospitals
2007
El Servicio de Urgencias del C.H.G.U.V. cuenta con una plantilla de 84 Enfermeros/as. Una parte considerable de ellos es personal de nueva incorporación, de ahí que sea prioritaria la elaboración de protocolos de actuación. La administración de medicación intravenosa es sin duda una de las técnicas de mayor aplicación en los pacientes que acuden a Urgencias, que en nuestro Hospital oscila entre 550-600 atenciones diarias. Por ello nos planteamos, mediante la realización de reuniones de grupo, la elaboración del presente trabajo con el objetivo de elaborar un manual informativo sobre la medicación más habitual utilizada en nuestro Servicio de Urgencias; indicaciones, contraindicaciones, dilu…
Delle impossibili verità. Le funzioni delle didascalie ne I Miracoli di Val Morel di Dino Buzzati
2016
Nei Miracoli di Val More di Dino Buzzati le didascalie, quei brevi testi di accompagnamento che ritroviamo anche in molte altre pitture buzzatiane, assumono una funzione centrale, sia come elemento della tradizione emblematica che della pittura votiva. Se le funzioni principali delle didascalie consistono nel dare informazioni sull’immagine, guidare l’occhio dell’osservatore, fare da collegamento tra le immagini e le parti verbali del testo in cui sono inserite, creando così un tutt’uno omogeneo, la loro presenza è fondamentale in un’opera così complessa e ibrida come i Miracoli che utilizza forme, generi, discorsi e regimi di verità assai eterogenei.
Peptidases in Germinating Barley Grain: Properties, Localization and Possible Functions
2008
Barley grain contains about 10% insoluble reserve proteins. When the grain germinates the reserve proteins are hydrolysed to amino acids and transported to the growing tissues of the seedling. In the resting grain most of the reserve proteins are 'packed' into the non-living storage tissue, the starchy endosperm. During germination the internal pH of the starchy endosperm is about 5, and it contains high activities of proteinases (secreted by the living aleurone cells) and carboxypeptidases, all with pH optima between 4 and 6. As a whole the starchy endosperm of a germinating grain resembles a giant secondary lysosome. Adjacent to the starchy endosperm is a specialized absorptive and proces…
Mobilization of proline in the starchy endosperm of germinating barley grain.
1979
In germinating grains of barley, Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Himalaya, free proline accumulated in the starchy endosperm during the period of rapid mobilization of reserve proteins. When starchy endosperms were separated from germinating grains and homogenized in a dilute buffer of pH 5 (the pH of the starchy endosperm), the liberation of proline continued in these suspensions. The process was completely inhibited by diisopropylfluorophosphate, indicating that it was totally dependent on serine carboxy-peptidases. The carboxypeptidases present in the starchy endosperms of germinating grains were fractionated by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. Four peaks were obtained, all with different activi…
Spectrophotometric and voltammetric determination of 2,5-dimethylaniline as potential product of enzymatic splitting of XY-2,5-dimethylanilide type s…
1999
A method for determination of 2,5-dimethylaniline is proposed. The procedure enables both spectrophotometrical and voltammetric measurements. The spectrophotometrical determination at λmax = 385.8 nm is possible for concentrations up to 1.25 × 10-6 mol l-1. The voltammetric method takes more time, however, due to the adsorptive enrichment of the substrate it is possible to determine concentrations in the range of 10-7 mol l-1). In the paper the optimal conditions and parameters for the determination are suggested.

Acyl-Chain Mismatch Driven Superlattice Arrangements in DPPC/DLPC/Cholesterol Bilayers
2010
Fluorescence and infrared spectroscopy and cholesterol oxidase activity were employed to investigate the effect of phosphatidylcholine (PC) acyl chain length mismatch on the lateral organizations of lipids in liquid-ordered dipalmitoyl-PC/dilauroyl-PC/cholesterol (DPPC/DLPC/CHOL) bilayers. Plots of steady-state fluorescence emission anisotropy of diphenylhexatriene (DPH) labeled PC (DPH-PC) embedded in the DPPC/DLPC/CHOL bilayers revealed significant peaks at several DPPC mole fractions (Y(DPPC)) when the cholesterol mole fraction (X(CHOL)) was fixed to particular values. Analogously, the DPH-PC anisotropy peaked at several critical X(CHOL)'s when Y(DPPC) was fixed. Acyl chain C-H and C hor…
Mode of action of Bacillus thuringiensis PS86Q3 strain in hymenopteran forest pests
2001
The mode of action of Cry toxins has been described principally in lepidopteran insects as a multistep process. In this work we describe the mode of action of a Cry toxin active in the common pine sawfly Diprion pini (Hymenoptera, Diprionidae), considered a major forest pest in Europe. Strain PS86Q3 contains a long bipyramidal crystal composed of five major proteins. The N-terminal sequence shows that the 155 kDa protein corresponds to Cry5B toxin and the other proteins belong to the Cry5A subgroup. PCR analysis indicates the presence of cry5Ac and cry5Ba genes, suggesting that Cry5A protein should be Cry5Ac. Activation of protoxins with trypsin or with midgut content from D. pini and Cepha…
Protected areas and species: the Mediterranean Basin
1995
Éste es un estudio de Derecho internacional sobre la protección de zonas y especies en el Mar Mediterráneo. En este trabajo examino los tratados internacionales relativos a zonas especialmente protegidas y a la diversidad biológica que son aplicables en el Mar Mediterráneo. Tras una breve introducción, en la sección II analizo aquellos tratados internacionales que en esta materia son aplicables al Mar Mediterráneo, aunque expresamente no se limitan sólo al mismo. En la sección III, realizo una mención especial al enfoque y a la evolución que, sobre estas materias, se contienen en los instrumentos mediterráneos de naturaleza tanto política como jurídica. This is an International Law study on…
