Age-Related Changes in Astrocytic and Ependymal Cells of the Subventricular Zone

2014

Neurogenesis persists in the adult subventricular zone (SVZ) of the mammalian brain. During aging, the SVZ neurogenic capacity undergoes a progressive decline, which is attributed to a decrease in the population of neural stem cells (NSCs). However, the behavior of the NSCs that remain in the aged brain is not fully understood. Here we performed a comparative ultrastructural study of the SVZ niche of 2-month-old and 24-month-old male C57BL/6 mice, focusing on the NSC population. Using thymidine-labeling, we showed that residual NSCs in the aged SVZ divide less frequently than those in young mice. We also provided evidence that ependymal cells are not newly generated during senescence, as ot…

Device For Ultrasound Tests

2015

A device (1) for ultrasound tests, comprising one or more transducers (4) for generating ultrasound beams with different powers and/or frequencies to be projected in direction of a plurality of targets (11), guaranteeing the separate control of the temperature both of the targets and of the transducers and it allows performing several tests contemporarily, by optimizing the functionality and the efficiency of the device, at the same time by guaranteeing results comparable therebetween for each test, and to this purpose it comprises: a first supporting structure (3) having at least a closed chamber (7; 23) receiving the body of said one or more transducers (4) and it is isolated from a propa…

Phase-delayed laser diode array allows ultrasonic guided wave mode selection and tuning

2013

Selecting and tuning modes are useful in ultrasonic guided wave non-destructive testing (NDT) since certain modes at various center frequencies are sensitive to specific types of defects. Ideally one should be able to select both the mode and the center frequency of the launched waves. We demonstrated that an affordable laser diode array can selectively launch either the S0 or A0 ultrasonic wave mode at a chosen center frequency into a polymer plate. A fiber-coupled diode array (4 elements) illuminated a 2 mm thick acrylic plate. A predetermined time delay matching the selected mode and frequency was employed between the output of the elements. The generated ultrasound was detected by a 215…

Comprehensive analysis of interacting proteins and genome-wide location studies of the Sas3-dependent NuA3 histone acetyltransferase complex

2014

Highlights • We characterise Sas3p and Gcn5p active HAT complexes in WT and deleted TAP-strains. • We confirm that Pdp3p interacts with NuA3, histones and chromatin regulators. • Pdp3p MS-analysis reveals its phosphorylation, ubiquitination and methylation. • Sas3p can substitute Gcn5p in acetylation of histone H3K14 but not of H3K9. • Genome-wide profiling of Sas3p supports its involvement in transcriptional elongation.

Penning-trap mass measurements on 92, 94-98, 100Mo with JYFLTRAP

2012

Penning-trap measurements on stable 92, 94-98, 100Mo isotopes have been performed with relative accuracy of \ensuremath1⋅10−8\ensuremath1⋅10−8 with the JYFLTRAP Penning-trap mass spectrometer by using 85Rb as a reference. The Mo isotopes have been found to be about 3keV more bound than given in the Atomic Mass Evaluation 2003 (AME03). The results confirm that the discrepancy between the ISOLTRAP and JYFLTRAP data for 101-105Cd isotopes was due to an erroneous value in the AME03 for 96Mo used as a reference at JYFLTRAP. The measured frequency ratios of Mo isotopes have been used to update mass-excess values of 30 neutron-deficient nuclides measured at JYFLTRAP. peerReviewed

Efficiency of Daphnia magna in removal of green microalgae cultivated in Nordic recirculating aquaculture system wastewater

2020

The increase of global aquaculture production has boosted the development of recirculating aquaculture systems not only because they reduce water use but also provide opportunities for waste management and the use of released nutrients. The dissolved nutrients can be efficiently removed from recirculating aquaculture system wastewater by microalgae, and microalgae can be harvested from the wastewater with low costs by zooplankton such as Daphnia. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of using microalgae and Daphnia for bioremediation of recirculating aquaculture system wastewater in Nordic conditions. We evaluated the growth and filtration efficiency of the waterflea Dap…

Ultrasound and supercritical fluids as useful tools to recover nutrients and bioactive compounds from aquaculture and marine side streams

2021

Los productos provenientes de la acuacultura, así como de los subproductos marinos contienen una cantidad muy importante y diversa de compuestos con diferentes actividades biológicas, atrayendo así el interés de las industrias alimentaria, farmacéutica y cosmética, entre otras. Para beneficiarse de éstos, especialmente subproductos del pescado y microalgas, como fuente potencial de diversos compuestos antioxidantes, proteínas, carbohidratos, pigmentos, compuestos fenólicos, etc., la extracción en sí juega un papel crucial, fundamentalmente cuando se trata de tecnologías verdes y sostenibles. Las técnicas de extracción convencionales implican el uso de disolventes orgánicos y requieren tiemp…

Association of child maltreatment subtypes and long-term physical health in a German representative sample

2018

ABSTRACT Background: Child maltreatment is a major public problem, associated with enormous consequences on the individual and socioeconomic level. Studies show a clear impact of child maltreatment on long-term physical health. However, there is a lack of analyses comprising a wide variety of subtypes of maltreatment and addressing cumulative effects of different maltreatment subtypes experienced during childhood on physical health. Objective: The objective of this analysis was to assess the association of different subtypes and the intensity of child maltreatment with long-term physical health outcomes. Methods: In a cross-sectional observational approach, a representative sample of the Ge…
