Influence of bioremediation stimulators in soil on development of oat seedlings (Avena sativa) and their aminopeptidase activity / Wpływ pozostałości…

2015

Abstract The selection of bioremediation techniques is important for purification of contaminated soil for agricultural use. Studies on soil contaminated with petroleum substances have indicated that the applied method of remediation has a bigger impact on the development of oat seedlings than the level of contamination. A yeast inoculum appeared to be a technique which was the friendliest to vegetation of oat

Search for supersymmetry in events with photons, bottom quarks, and missing transverse momentum in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energ…

2013

A search has been performed for the experimental signature of an isolated photon with high transverse momentum, at least one jet identified as originating from a bottom quark, and high missing transverse momentum. Such a final state may originate from supersymmetric models with gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking in events in which one of a pair of higgsino-like neutralinos decays into a photon and a gravitino while the other decays into a Higgs boson and a gravitino. The search is performed using the full dataset of 7 TeV proton–proton collisions recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC in 2011, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb−1. A total of 7 candidate events are o…

Management of irrigation water and nutrient demands of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) using urban treated wastewater from a pilot-scale horiz…

2017

The reuse of treated wastewater (TWW) in crop irrigation is an advanced and rational approach to water resource management in agriculture. Results would seem to demonstrate that it could be an extremely important tool in the reduction of freshwater (FW) consumption in agriculture, at the same time helping to increase crop yields through the transfer of nutrients required for crop growth. In arid and semi-arid areas of the Mediterranean, constructed wetlands can play a key role in the treatment and reuse of wastewater due to their multifunctional nature. The aim of this study was to manage water and nutrient requirements of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) using TWW from a pilot-scale …

Green inclusive leadership and green creativity in the tourism and hospitality sector: serial mediation of green psychological climate and work engag…

2021

Green creativity contributes to green innovation and green sustainability in both the manufacturing and services sectors. However, academic research offering more nuanced insights about the drivers of green creativity (GCRT) is deficient, particularly within the tourism and hospitality sector. The present study thus theorized a model based on the Componential Theory of Creativity (CTC) to examine green inclusive leadership (GIL), green psychological climate (GPC), and green work engagement (GWE) as antecedents of GCRT. The model not only posits the direct associations but also accommodates a more complex interaction of variables by anticipating the mediation effect of GPC and GWE on the ass…

Theatricalization of self : personal blogs as theatre performance

2012

The aim of this thesis is to compare personal blogs and theatre art. The study is conducted as theoretical discourse and focuses on comparison of personal blogs with a subgenre of theatre art, performance art. Using actual selected examples from theatre art as well as from personal blogs, the study aims to outline the similarities, which personal blogs share with theatre performance. The theoretical framework of the thesis suggests that personal blogs with their nature of the observed subject, the blogger, and the observer, the reader, produce one of the basic elements of theatre art, theatricality. Furthermore, personal blogs are placed closer to postdramatic theatre, a form of theatre art…

Blue biotechnology: oil bioremediation using hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria immobilized on biodegradable membranes

2017

A novel bioremediation system to clean up oil contaminated water was developed combining hydrocarbon (HC) degrading bacteria immobilized and polylactic acid (PLA) or polycaprolactone (PCL) membranes prepared by electrospinning. The bioremediation efficiency was tested on crude oil using highly performant HC degrading bacterial strains isolated from marine and soil environments. The membrane morphology, the microbial adhesion and proliferation were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The SEM analysis highlighted that the fibers of the electrospun mats were in nanoscale with a similar diameter size distribution. The electrospun membranes exhibited high oil absorption capacity …

Vulnerabilidad cognitiva a la hipocondría: intrusiones, valoraciones y creencias disfuncionales/ Cognitive vulnerability to hypochondriasis: intrusio…

2019

La hipocondría es un trastorno caracterizado por el miedo o la creencia de padecer una enfermedad grave a partir de la interpretación negativa de los signos y síntomas corporales. La confirmación por parte de un médico, después de una evaluación exhaustiva, de que el paciente no padece una enfermedad médica, no tiene como resultado una tranquilización segura y duradera. Por lo general, las personas que presentan hipocondría pueden experimentar una reducción de la ansiedad después de visitar al médico, pero esta reducción dura solo horas o días. Cuando se presenta otro síntoma, la ansiedad reaparece y el ciclo de preocupación hipocondríaca se reanuda. Además, la hipocondría se puede manifest…

Intercultural competence is a range of skills, which lead to constructive and appropriate communication with other cultures. Difficulty in communicating with different part of European society, immigrants included, may result not only from linguistic misunderstanding, but also from cultural differences. This fact led to introducing the profession of linguistic and/or cultural mediator. After Bologna Process the mediation courses were provided by European and Italian universities. In these courses students can learn about inter-linguistic and intercultural communication through the study of European and non-European languages. Students have to be taught not only in translation and interpreti…

Ionic Liquid Gels: Tunable and Multifaceted Materials

Materials based on ionic liquids retain properties of solvent components, like low vapor pressure, high thermal stability and structure tunability. The latter allows changing properties of materials by making small variations in the cation or anion structure, opening the way to a plethora of different applications. In this context, ionic liquid gels can represent a challenge especially if they are obtained from gelation of ionic liquid binary mixtures or of organic salts in ionic liquids. In the framework of our interest in studying ionic liquids properties and applications, in the last few years, we have addressed our attention to the obtainment of ionic liquid gels.1 We have deeply invest…
