Noroviral P-Particles as an In Vitro Model to Assess the Interactions of Noroviruses with Probiotics

2014

Noroviruses (NoVs) are the main etiologic agents of acute epidemic gastroenteritis and probiotic bacteria have been reported to exert a positive effect on viral diarrhea. The protruding (P) domain from NoVs VP1 capsid protein has the ability to assemble into the so-called P-particles, which retain the binding ability to host receptors. We purified the P-domains from NoVs genotypes GI.1 and GII.4 as 6X(His)-tagged proteins and determined that, similar to native domains, they were structured into P-particles that were functional in the recognition of the specific glycoconjugated receptors, as established by surface plasmon resonance experiments. We showed that several lactic acid bacteria (pr…

Removal of drugs in aqueous systens by photoassisted degradation

2005

Aqueous solutions of tetracycline, lincomycin and ranitidine were irradiated with UV light in homogeneous and heterogeneous systems. Two commercial polycrystalline TiO2 powders (Degussa P25 and Merck) were used as photocatalysts. After 5A h, an appreciable photolytic degradation of tetracycline and ranitidine was observed while the degradation of lincomycin was noticeably lower. As far as the mineralization is concerned, a small decrease of the TOC values was measured in the case of tetracycline whereas negligible variations were found for lincomycin or ranitidine. The presence of the photocatalysts greatly enhanced the degradation rates of the drugs with respect to those observed during th…

Sobre cerámicas Helenísticas en Iberia / Hispania. Significado y funcionalidad

2012

In this work we are going to take a chronological and typological tour by studying the iconography that appears in the Hellenistic wares imported from the Central and Oriental Mediterranean between 3rd and 2nd centuries BC in Hispania Citerior, in particular from Cartagena. We are going to analyze its functionality in the places of origin, and with the help of the Hispanic contexts we will conclude whether its presence here is a consequence of a certain commercial dynamic, or if it answers to a decorative preference, of taste or trend; even if the images are significant related to ritual or convivial uses, public or private, by the local inhabitant who acquires and uses them.

L' Avventura dei Mille

2010

La situazione del 1860 era un intreccio che in tutto e per tutto assomigliava a un canestro di granchi. In questo clima Garibaldi, nato per l’azione, decise d’agire, stimolando le voglie di un’intera generazione che trovò nella spedizione il crogiolo della sua formazione e fu poi dimenticata. Giuseppe Nodari, soldato adolescente dell’ancien régime asburgico, che indossando la camicia rossa era diventato un borghese moderno italiano, ne è stato un esempio assai chiaro. I suoi disegni, ritrovati dopo anni di oblio e pubblicati integralmente per la prima volta in questo libro, sono d’un interesse clamoroso: raccontano in presa diretta, come in un film, la spedizione da Quarto a Palermo e costi…

Antibacterial and antifungal activities of Otanthus maritimus (L.) Hoffmanns.Link essential oil from Sicily.

2013

The chemical composition of the essential oil obtained from the flowers of Otanthus maritimus L., a perennial plant growing wild in maritime sands in the Mediterranean region, was investigated by GC and GC-MS analyses. Totally 66 were identified. The oil was dominated by the high content of monoterpene compounds, especially oxygenated monoterpenes which accounted for 73.1%. The most abundant components were yomogi alcohol (20.8%), camphor (15.8%), artemisyl acetate (15.3%) and artemisia alcohol (13.7%). The oil was tested against two Gram (+) and six Gram (-) bacterial strains, both American Type Culture Collection standard strains and clinically isolated (CI), one potentially pathogenic ye…

Cietušais kriminālprocesa izpratnē

2019

Bakalaura darba temats ir “Cietušais kriminālprocesa izpratnē”. Cietušais kriminālprocesā ir persona, kurai ar noziedzīgu nodarījumu nodarīts kaitējums – fizisks, morāls vai mantisks. Bakalaura darba mērķis ir izprast cietušā jēdziena būtību kriminālprocesa ietvaros, kā arī to, kādā veidā cietusī persona var tikt atzīta par cietušo kriminālprocesā. Bakalaura darbā tiks pētīts arī ne tik sen ieviestu īpaši aizsargājamā cietušā institūtu un tā nozīmi kriminālprocesā. Mērķa sasniegšanai autore bakalaura darbā centās nošķirt jēdzienu “upuris” no jēdziena “cietušais” kriminālprocesa izpratnē. Tika pētīts kādas izmaiņas ir skārušas Kriminālprocesa likumu pēc Direktīvas 29/12/ES ieviešanas un kā š…

2019

espanolEl presente articulo, producido a partir de un estudio de caso, aborda la cuestion de la Responsabilidad Social Universitaria (RSU) en el Brasil. Basado en una Metodologia de Evaluacion da RSU, que busca identificar las evidencias objetivas sobre las acciones desarrolladas por las instituciones de educacion superior a partir de siete indicadores de Responsabilidad Social (inclusion social; desarrollo economico y social; defensa del medio ambiente; defensa del patrimonio y memoria cultural; defensa de la produccion artistica e defensa de la produccion deportiva y salud), se analizan las acciones concretas implantadas por el Centro de Ciencias Humanas, Sociales y Agrarias (CCHSA) da Un…

Sexual cannibalism in Nephila plumipes as a consequence of female life history strategies

2002

The evolution of sexual cannibalism has been modelled as both an adaptive and nonadaptive female strategy. Recent evidence from several species suggests a connection between female foraging and sexual cannibalism, but the precise benefits for females have remained obscure. Here, we investigate the difference between cannibalistic and noncannibalistic female Nephila plumipes by removing the potential nutritional benefit of cannibalism. Courting and mating males that were killed by a female were immediately removed so that the female could not consume them. Nevertheless, cannibalistic females gained more mass from maturation to oviposition and produced larger first clutches than noncannibalis…

Solution versus Fluorous versus Solid-Phase Synthesis of 2,5-Disubstituted 1,3-Azoles. Preliminary Antibacterial Activity Studies

2009

A small library of compounds with an oxa(thia)zole scaffold and structural diversity in both positions 2 and 5 has been synthesized. Double acylation of a protected glycine affords intermediate α-amido-β-ketoesters, which in turn can be dehydrated to afford 1,3-oxazoles or reacted with Lawesson’s reagent to furnish 1,3-thiazoles. This procedure was designed with its adaptation to fluorous techniques in mind. Thus, when a protected glycine with a fluorous tag in the ester moiety is used as a starting material, the synthesis can be easily completed without column chromatography purification of intermediate compounds with good to excellent yields, thus affording a suitable entry to the prepara…
