Ukrainian culture fansubbed: Challenges of amateur subtitling
2021
The research addresses the issues of rendering culture specific information in amateur subtitling from the Ukrainian into the English language. The fansubbing of proper names, culture-bound common nouns, formulaic sequences, sociolects and songs by the non-professional translators for whom English is a foreign language is the main focus of this study. Thus, the comparative analysis of the Ukrainian filmsChasing Two Hares(1961),Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors(1965) andPrayer for Hetman Mazepa(2001), and their English subtitles reveals the difficulties fansubbers may face, as well as discusses translations strategies and techniques employed. Moreover, the study delves into reasons underlying t…
A mathematical model of exposure of nontarget Lepidoptera to Bt-maize pollen expressing Cry1Ab within Europe
2010
Genetically modified (GM) maize MON810 expresses a Cry1Ab insecticidal protein, derived from Bacillus thuringiensis ( Bt ), toxic to lepidopteran target pests such as Ostrinia nubilalis . An environmental risk to non-target Lepidoptera from this GM crop is exposure to harmful amounts of Bt -containing pollen deposited on host plants in or near MON810 fields. An 11-parameter mathematical model analysed exposure of larvae of three non-target species: the butterflies Inachis io (L.), Vanessa atalanta (L.) and moth Plutella xylostella (L.), in 11 representative maize cultivation regions in four European countries. A mortality–dose relationship was integrated with a dose–distance relationship t…

Inteligencia emocional y género: más allá de las diferencias sexuales
2012
La mayoría de los estudios sobre género e Inteligencia Emocional (IE) se han centrado en analizar diferencias en función del sexo y han mostrado resultados contradictorios. Con objeto de formular nuevas propuestas de análisis en este ámbito de estudio, el presente trabajo examina el efecto de la identidad de género sobre la IE en una muestra de 338 trabajadores/as. Para la medida de la IE se utilizaron tanto medidas de auto-percepción (TMMS) como de habilidad (MSCEIT). Los resultados indican que la aceptación de rasgos de expresividad por parte de las mujeres podría explicar sus mayores puntuaciones en IE. Además, los resultados muestran que las personas andróginas, en comparación con las i…
Evaluating Resistance to Bt Toxin Cry1Ab by F<SUB>2</SUB> Screen in European Populations of Ostrinia nubilalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)
2010
ABSTRACT The large-scale cultivation of transgenic crops producing Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) toxins have already lead to the evolution of Bt resistance in some pest populations targeted by these crops. We used the F2 screening method for further estimating the frequency of resistance alleles of the European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis (Hubner) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), to Bt maize, Zea mays L., producing the CrylAb toxin. In France, Germany, and Italy, 784, 455, and 80 lines of European corn borer were screened for resistance to Mon810 maize, respectively. In Slovakia, 26 lines were screened for resistance to the CrylAb toxin. The cost of F2 screen performed in the four countries varie…
Untargeted metabolomics to explore the oxidation processes during shelf life of pork patties treated with guarana seed extracts
2019
The changes of metabolites in pork patties with different antioxidants added (control without antioxidants, 200 mg kg(-1) butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and 250 mg kg(-1) guarana seed extracts (GSEs)) under modified atmosphere (80% O-2 and 20% CO2) for 18 days of refrigerated storage were evaluated. Untargeted metabolomic approach based on UHPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS analysis was applied. GSE phytochemical profile revealed a wide variety of compounds (caffeine, glycerol 1-propanoate, amino acids, alkaloids and glycerophospholipids), together with antioxidants (tyrosols, procyanidins and flavonoids). Important differences in BHT and GSE patties metabolomic profiles were found during storage. Most of t…
"Frater, ave atque vale" (Catull. 101.10): fortuna literaria de una fórmula epigráfica
2011
Trabajo realizado dentro del Grupo de Investigación «Tradiciones Clásicas» de la UPV/EHU (GIU-07-26) [ES] En este artículo ofrecemos un panorama con algunos de los autores modernos –Tennyson, Swinburne, V. Woolf, G. Moore, C.K. Stead y Anne Carson– que han dado nueva vida al motivo del saludo directo al difunto, a partir del carmen 101 de Catulo, cuyo verso 10 sigue gozando de un especial éxito, apoyado por la efectiva simplicidad de su saludo emotivo al hermano y de su forma, asequible y reconocible aun cuando el conocimiento de la lengua latina sea menor. [EN] In this article we offer an overview of some of the modern authors (specially Tennyson, Swinburne, V. Woolf, G. Moore, C.K. Stead,…
Erwinia piriflorinigrans sp. nov., a novel pathogen that causes necrosis of pear blossoms
2010
Eight Erwinia strains, isolated from necrotic pear blossoms in València, Spain, were compared with reference strains of Erwinia amylovora and Erwinia pyrifoliae, both of which are pathogenic to species of pear tree, and to other species of the family Enterobacteriaceae using a polyphasic approach. Phenotypic analyses clustered the novel isolates into one phenon, distinct from other species of the genus Erwinia, showing that the novel isolates constituted a homogeneous phenotypic group. Rep-PCR profiles, PCR products obtained with different pairs of primers and plasmid contents determined by restriction analysis showed differences between the novel strains and reference strains of E. amylovo…
Human ABCB1 confers cells resistance to cytotoxic guanidine alkaloids from Pterogyne nitens.
2015
Multidrug resistance (MDR) caused by human ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein/MDR1) is one of the major obstacles in chemotherapy. To understand the mechanism of MDR by ABCB1 and circumvent the MDR, in the present study, we established human ABCB1-expressing cells (Flp-In-293/ABCB1 cells) and examined the cytotoxic effects of four guanidine alkaloids from Pterogyne nitens (galegine, nitensidine A, pterogynidine and pterogynine) using Flp-In-293/Mock and Flp-In-293/ABCB1 cells. The activity of ABCB1 in Flp-In-293/ABCB1 cells were confirmed by typical substrates for ABCB1 (taxol and vinblastine) in MTT assay. Flp-In-293/ABCB1 cells were also resistant to the four guanidine alkaloids as well as taxol and v…
Ricerche in tema di società questuarie
2019
Intorno al regime delle società di tipo questuario – riconducibili agli schemi teorici della societas universorum quae ex quaestu veniunt – e delle società unius alicuius negotiationis e unius rei, si profusero gli sforzi interpretativi dei giuristi romani, fin dalla fine dell’età repubblicana. La monografia scientifica ripercorre le tracce della individuazione della nozione stessa di quaestus (guadagno), con particolare riferimento alla inclusione al suo interno delle donazioni cd. remuneratorie; ancora, ricostruisce il dibattito giurisprudenziale sorto intorno alla questione se i soci – nella determinazione delle quote – dovessero rispettare una proporzione rispetto ai conferimenti, con u…
