Determination of Changes in the Quality of Surface Water in the River—Reservoir System

2021

Assessing the changing parameters of water quality at different points in the river–reservoir system can help prevent river pollution and implement remedial policies. It is also crucial in modeling water resources. Multivariate statistical analysis is useful for the analysis of changes in surface water quality. It helps to identify indicators that may be responsible for the eutrophication process of a reservoir. Additionally, the analysis of the water quality profile and the water quality index (WQI) is useful in assessing water pollution. These tools can support and verify the results of a multivariate statistical analysis. In this study, changes in water quality parameters of the Turawa r…

Optimization of Spray-Drying Process of

2019

Jerusalem artichoke is an important natural matrix for inulin production. In this experiment, response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to optimize the spray-drying parameters in order to determine the maximal inulin yield. For this study, three independent variables (heating temperature (Tª, 110–120 °C), creep speed (V, 18–22 rpm) and pressure (P, 0.02–0.04 MPa)) were used in the experimental design. Using the Box–Behnken design, the optimal parameters obtained were: drying temperature 114.6 °C, creep speed 20.02 rpm, and pressure: 0.03 MPa. The inulin yield, water content and particle size of inulin obtained by spray-drying and freeze-drying were compared. In this regard, the spray-…

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…

Educate to coexist with the flood risk

2020

In the Mediterranean region, floods are the main natural risk. This hazard has been aggravated in recent decades by the increase in exposure of the human being and is expected to increase the danger according to the forecast of climate change scenarios. For this reason, dealing with these issues in the classroom and the training of teachers on this subject should be a priority, as established in the curriculum of Primary Education (Social Sciences). The objectives of this research are: 1) To analyze the knowledge that future teachers have about the risk of flooding to develop these contents in the classroom; 2) Check the relevance that they give to this social-environmental problem; and 3) …

"Tämä on kuin pieni oma valtakunta jossa voimme itse tehdä mitä haluamme" : rintamamiestaloelämäntapa sosiaalisen median kontekstissa

2017

Tiivistelmä-Abstract Maisterintutkielma käsittelee rintamamiestaloon liitettyä elämäntapaa sosiaalisen median kontekstissa 2010-luvulla. Tutkielman lähtökohtana olivat yhteisöpalvelu Facebookissa tehdyt havainnot keskustelua herättävistä aiheista. Aineistolähtöistä analyysiä varten rekrytoitiin Facebookin rintamamiestaloa käsittelevistä suljetuista keskusteluryhmistä henkilöitä, jotka vastasivat sähköpostitse lähetettyyn puolistrukturoituun kyselyyn. Vastauksia kyselyyn saatiin 25 kappaletta. Vastausten pohjalta muodostettiin kaksi pääteemaa, jotka olivat 1) aktiivinen omaehtoinen toiminta ja elämäntahdin hidastaminen sekä 2) rintamamiestaloelämään liitetyt arvostukset ja asenteet. Vastaust…

The contribution of AI to enhance understanding of Cultural Heritage.

2013

The Artificial Intelligence & Cultural Heritage (AI & CH) working group was born in 1999 with the aim at promoting various scientific activities to increase a more active collaboration between the sectors of cultural assets and artificial intelligence. The many events (workshops and schools) organized over the years have shown the validity of this group for exchanging ideas and gathering researchers and practitioners from different fields. New applications of informatics and artificial intelligence have provided the opportunity to produce innovative tools for documenting, managing and communicating cultural heritage. For this anniversary we intend to show how some of the most important meth…
