DNA-DNA hybridization and ribotyping of Acidovorax delafieldii isolates from eels and aquatic environments
1992
Eleven strains of Acidovorax isolated from a freshwater lake and from healthy and diseased European eels in a hatchery were investigated by genotypic methods. DNA-DNA slot blot hybridization confirmed the identity of all strains as A. delafieldii. Isolates were heterogeneous in EcoR1 ribopatterns with four types recognizable. Most freshwater and healthy eel strains had the same ribotype but differed from the disease-associated strains. Typical ribopatterns of A. delafieldii contained 1·3, 1·5, and 3·2 kb fragments which provided useful additional taxonomic markers for species identification.
Danno da prodotto e mercati digitali. Verso la responsabilità delle piattaforme di e-commerce
2021
Questo articolo intende ricostruire l'impatto della rivoluzione digitale sulla disciplina della responsabilità da prodotto difettoso al fine di individuare in che modo i mutamenti in atto si riflettano sulla distribuzione delle responsabilità e sul regime giuridico delle piattaforme di e-commerce per danni da prodotti di venditori terzi.
Bene comune e politica in democrazia
2005
Nel contributo è messo a tema il concomitante rilievo assunto dai principi e fini della libertà, del bene comune, della giustizia e della pace in vista di un discorso democratico coerente e compiuto
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, diabetes, and oxidative stress
2020
Abstract Diabetes and related metabolic diseases have a high prevalence with increasing incidence and create a significant socioeconomic burden by their contribution to global mortality and disability adjusted life years. Whereas the contribution of communicable disease to global deaths decreased during the last 25 years, the contribution by chronic noncommunicable disease and environmental factors increased within this time period. According to data of the Global Burden of Disease Study high fasting plasma glucose and high total cholesterol rank in place 3 and 4 in the list of global health risk factors, just behind high blood pressure and smoking. Diabetes adversely affects endothelial an…
Social Space for Self-Organising: An Exploratory Study of Timebanks in Finland and in the UK
2018
The article examines the challenges to self-organisation and upscaling of alternative economies from the viewpoint of defending and negotiating social space. Timebanks in Finland and the UK are presented as examples, analysing the difference of defending such social space in the contexts of a traditional welfare state (in the case of Finland) and an austerity-driven government with a “Big Society” ideology (in the case of UK). Both systems of government present different kinds of pressures on timebanks, pushing them to a given ontological categories and to action in accordance with pre-defined political goals. This difference, along with timebank reactions and the question of prospects of o…
The fine structural organization of sternal glands of pseudergates and workers in termites (Isoptera): a comparative survey
2008
1873-5495 (Electronic) Comparative Study Journal Article; Thirty-nine species belonging to different families of termites are studied to give a comprehensive view of the evolution of the sternal glands. Several modifications occurring at cuticular and cytological levels are described in neuter castes. The outer epicuticle is always pierced by epicuticular pores. In advanced termites the epicuticular filaments greatly increase in number and length creating a thick layer. The pore canals gradually enlarge while the cuticle changes into a lattice structure lining an extracellular space in which the secretion is stored. Two classes of cells are present in basal termites (Mastotermitidae, Hodote…
Effects of self-myofascial release: A systematic review.
2015
Summary Background Self-myofascial release (SMFR) is a type of myofascial release performed by the individual themselves rather than by a clinician, typically using a tool. Objectives To review the literature regarding studies exploring acute and chronic clinical effects of SMFR. Methods PubMed and Google Scholar databases were searched during February 2015 for studies containing words related to the topic of SMFR. Results Acutely, SMFR seems to increase flexibility and reduce muscle soreness but does not impede athletic performance. It may lead to improved arterial function, improved vascular endothelial function, and increased parasympathetic nervous system activity acutely, which could b…
Promoting emotional skills in early adolescents with mental health conditions in music therapy : a content analysis of focus group interviews
2023
Introduction: Music therapy is actively used with early adolescents in relation to their emotional skill development. Yet, the conceptualization of emotional skills is typically not systematically addressed in therapeutic practice. This study examined music therapists’ views on the progress of emotional skills when working with early adoles-cents with mental health conditions. The study also explored what kind of methods the therapists use with the target group, and the applicability of a previously pub-lished conceptual model. Method: We conducted a deductive-inductive content analysis of transcripts from four focus group interviews among 13 professional music therapists. Results: The ther…
Porphyrines et tétraazamacrocycles dérivés du DOTA : association de deux ligands pour la chélation de métaux d'intérêt en imagerie médicale multimoda…
2012
The goal of my PhD thesis was to synthesize new molecules, which give access to heterobimetallic complexes with interesting properties for multimodal imaging. In this manuscript, several main points have been studied. The first part of this work concerns the synthesis and characterization of ligands. We describe here the synthesis of five new ligands based on the association of one porphyrin and one or several cyclen derivatives. Those ligands are water-soluble. During the synthesis, we have targeted improvements to our work and developed a new synthetic pathway, which allowed us to obtain one ligand incorporating a porphyrin, a cyclen derivative and a free amine function. This function cou…
An Scalable matrix computing unit architecture for FPGA and SCUMO user design interface
2019
High dimensional matrix algebra is essential in numerous signal processing and machine learning algorithms. This work describes a scalable square matrix-computing unit designed on the basis of circulant matrices. It optimizes data flow for the computation of any sequence of matrix operations removing the need for data movement for intermediate results, together with the individual matrix operations’ performance in direct or transposed form (the transpose matrix operation only requires a data addressing modification). The allowed matrix operations are: matrix-by-matrix addition, subtraction, dot product and multiplication, matrix-by-vector multiplication, and matrix by scalar multiplication.…
