P-76D-PENICILLAMINE, AN ACETALDEHYDE SEQUESTERING AGENT, REDUCES ETHANOL PREFERENCE IN ALCOHOL-NAÏVE RATS

2015

In previous investigations, we demonstrated that D-penicillamine (DP), a sulfhydryl aminoacid which has been studied as sequestration agent of acetaldehyde (ACD), is able to prevent the alcohol deprivation effect (ADE) but not voluntary ethanol consumption. Both results were obtained in long-term ethanol-experienced Wistar rats. Based on a previous …

P-78D-PENICILLAMINE PREVENTS THE ALCOHOL DEPRIVATION EFFECT IN THE OPERANT SELF-AMINISTRATION PARADIGM

2015

Although pharmacological treatments for relapse prevention have experienced some progress, their general effectiveness can be considered low and the problem could not be considered solved. In recent years, our group has explored the use of acetaldehyde (ACD) sequestering agents as a new and very promising strategy. These agents, such as …

Desaturation and esterification of fatty acids in kidney cells from spontaneously hypertensive rats

2001

In previous studies, several alterations in lipid metabolism have been related to hypertension, but the mechanisms explaining this relationship have not been elucidated. None of the previous works has focused on the lipid metabolism in kidney, which is a key organ in the overall regulation of blood pressure. The aim of the present work was to study the metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids, and the possible compositional changes in kidney from hypertensive rats. Radiolabelled linoleic acid (18:2,n-6) and dihomogammalinolenic acid (20:3, n-6) were incubated with isolated kidney cells from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) or the parent normotensive strain (Wistar Kyoto, WKY). The rat…

Derivatization of hydroxyl functional groups for liquid chromatography and capillary electroseparation

2013

The derivatization reactions commonly used to enhance the analytical signal in the HPLC and CE determination of compounds with hydroxyl functional groups are revised. Focus is placed on the determination of compounds having aliphatic alcohols and phenols while lacking other reactive functional groups. The derivatization with acyl chlorides, organic anhydrides, isocyanates and a variety of other approaches, including oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols, sulfonation, esterification with carboxylic acids, and the use of azides, sulfonyl chlorides and other reagents having miscellaneous leaving groups, is covered. Reactions mainly addressed to introduce a chromophore or a fluorophore in…

Fotodegradazione di esteri ftalici su pitture murali tramite irradiazioni uv

2014

Gli esteri ftalici (esteri dell’acido ftalico), rappresentano una particolare classe di inquinanti organici ubiquitari, resistenzi alla bio-degradazione, capaci da fungere da distruttori endocrini e dannosi a causa del loro effetto mutageno e cancerogeno. Molti composti di questa classe di sostanze per decenni, e probabilmente ancora oggi, sono stati utilizzati come ammorbidenti nelle pitture murali superficiali utilizzate nelle comuni abitazioni domestiche. Considerando quindi che oggigiorno, le attività di demolizione e ristrutturazione rapprsentano una cospiqua fetta di mercato delle attività edilizie, e che spesso i lavoratori impiegati in queste attività sono sogetti in maniera continu…

Interesterification of triglycerides with methyl acetate for biodiesel production using a cyclodextrin-derived SnO@γ-Al2O3 composite as heterogeneous…

2022

International audience; Particle morphology and surface properties of metal oxides are topics of great importance in the field of heterogeneous catalysis. Herein, we have developed a molecular-colloidal coassembly approach combined with an ultrasonic-assisted precipitation method to fabricate SnO@γ-Al2O3 composites with tuneable pore size and well-defined octahedral-shape crystal structure. The supramolecular assemblies formed between the randomly methylated β-cyclodextrin (RaMeβCD) and Pluronic F127 were employed as template to tailor the size and shape of γ-Al2O3 nanoparticles and direct their assembly almost exclusively on the surface of micrometer-sized SnO single …

The Samjiyon Orchestra as a North Korean Means for Gender Based Cultural Diplomacy

2020

In 2018 it appeared that a peace process on the Korean Peninsula had got underway. Lots of publicity was produced on inter-Korean relations and many types of messages and diplomatic actors started to move across the border with South Korea. One important element in this process was cultural diplomacy, conducted partly by athletes and cheering squads during the Pyeongchang Winter Olympic Games, and partly by musical ensembles. Selection of the Samjiyon Orchestra for the Pyeongchang events sheds light on the kind of image the North Korean leadership wanted to display of the country on the international stage. This article analyses the characteristics of the orchestra, where it came from, and …

Transesterification of rapeseed oil over acid resins promoted by supercritical carbon dioxide

2011

The methanolysis of rapeseed oil catalyzed by commercial styrene-divinylbenzene macroporous acid resins was performed in a batch reactor at 100-140 °C and 10-46 MPa to study the effect of supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) on the performances of the process. Reaction temperatures of 120-140 °C were necessary to obtain high enough yields of fatty acid methyl esters. Upon addition of scCO2 faster transesterification kinetics was obtained also at the lowest investigated operating pressure (10-11 MPa), working in two fluid phase systems. Experiments performed changing the reaction time indicated that most of the esters were formed during the first 3 h. When the pressure was increased at 38-46…

Efficacy of an Internet-Based Intervention to Promote a Healthy Lifestyle on the Reproductive Parameters of Overweight and Obese Women: Study Protoco…

Este artículo pertenece al número especial "Developmental and emotional aspects of pregnancy, childbirth, and parenting: current and future perspectives". Background: Infertility is estimated to affect 15% of couples of reproductive age. Weight management problems (being obese or overweight) are among the problems that produce infertility, both in women seeking spontaneous pregnancy and in those undergoing assisted reproduction techniques. Over the last few decades, the prevalence of obesity has increased alarmingl…
