Detection of Parietaria Mottle Virus by RT-qPCR: An Emerging Virus Native of Mediterranean Area That Undermine Tomato and Pepper Production in Southe…

2021

Parietaria mottle virus (PMoV) is considered an emerging virus in many countries of the Mediterranean basin, especially on tomato and pepper crops. Symptoms on tomato leaves and fruits can be easily confused with those induced by cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) with necrogenic satellite RNA (CMV-satRNA), tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) or tomato mosaic virus (ToMV). Mixed infection of these viruses has been also reported in some tomato cultivars, with an increase in the complexity of the symptoms and severity of the disease. Although a specific serum and riboprobes have been produced, nowadays no sensitive diagnostic methods are available for the rapid PMoV detection. Here, we have developed a…

Caffeine analysis and extraction from a topical cream intended for UV-skin protection

2020

Made available in DSpace on 2021-06-25T10:16:59Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2020-01-01 This study aimed to develop and validate a method for the analysis of caffeine in complex cosmetic samples, such as sunscreens. Besides, an extraction method of caffeine from coffee oil and from creams, which contains both lipophilic and hydrophilic components, has been developed. The method to analyze caffeine was developed using an isocratic pump, Waters 1515 and an automatic injector Perkin-Elmer Series 200 and an UV detector Perkin-Elmer. As stationary phase, Kromasil C-18 (150 × 4.6 mm ID with particle size of 5 µm) column was used and a mixture of water (pH 4.00)/acetonitrile (…

Luovat terapiat ja empaattisen kohtaamisen kaipuu suomalaisten mielisairaalamuistojen valossa

2018

Tutkin suomalaisten mielisairaalamuistoja Muistoihin kaivertuneet tilat ‐hankkeessa. Muistelukeruuseen lähetetyt potilaiden muistot ovat suurelta osin häpeän ja traumantäyteisiä, vaikka positiivisiakin kokemuksia mahtuu joukkoon. Luovien terapioiden kannalta ilahduttavaa on se, että niiden osalta kenelläkään muistojaan lähettäneellä potilaalla ei ollut pahaa sanottavaa. Luovia terapioita olen käyttänyt myös muisteluaineiston hyödyntämisessä. Olen järjestänyt neljä työpajaa, joissa olen käyttänyt aineiston karuimpia potilaskokemuksia terapeuttisen kirjoittamisen materiaalina tavoitteenani aktivoida ihmisten empatiakykyä ja sen kautta tarkastella traumatisoivan ja vastaavasti hoitavan kohtaam…

Convergence of dynamic programming principles for the $p$-Laplacian

2018

We provide a unified strategy to show that solutions of dynamic programming principles associated to the $p$-Laplacian converge to the solution of the corresponding Dirichlet problem. Our approach includes all previously known cases for continuous and discrete dynamic programming principles, provides new results, and gives a convergence proof free of probability arguments.

Technical issues in beginning violin: an exploratory study in the classroom with 4-5 years old preschoolers

2018

Conocer los errores técnicos de los alumnos en la enseñanza de la música puede ser de gran ayuda en la planificación de la enseñanza instrumental en sus fases iniciales. Esto es particularmente valioso en el trabajo con alumnado de 4-5 años. Este estudio explora esta cuestión mediante una Investigación-Acción realizada con 11 estudiantes voluntarios de dichas edades. A lo largo de 30 sesiones individuales de 30 minutos, se recogieron datos mediante observación participante realizada por el profesor en una Escuela Municipal de Música, comparándose dos aproximaciones didácticas de iniciación al violín. Una aproximación se centró en el manejo de la mano derecha (aproximación MD), introduciendo…

Frihet, fantasi og utfoldelse: En kvalitativ studie av estetiske arbeidsformer i lærerutdanningene

2017

Artikkelen undersoker hva slags forstaelse laererutdannere og laererstudenter har av estetiske arbeidsformer i undervisningen i laererutdanningene. Studien er en kvalitativ intervjuundersokelse blant laererutdannere og laererstudenter ved en norsk laererutdanningsinstitusjon. I lys av danningsteoretisk og didaktisk teori, finner studien at laererutdannere og laererstudenters forstaelse av estetiske arbeidsformer i undervisningen er kjennetegnet av «frihet» som fravaer av tvang og fasit i arbeid med laerestoffet, «fantasi» som bruk av forestillingsevnen slik at kunnskapen blir personlig, og «utfoldelse» som sosialisering inn i et fellesskap gjennom tilbakemeldinger pa egen atferd. Til sammen…

Making Sense of Senses. Interview with Dorothy Noyes

2010

I interviewed Dorothy Noyes, Director of the Center for Folklore Studies, and As- sociate Professor of English, Comparative Studies, and Anthropology Ohio State University, Columbus (United States). Currently, her research interests involve the collective representations of plural societies, the social organization of vernacular creativity, and the history of international cultural regimes. Her primary fieldwork is in Catalonia, Spain, where she has studied the politics of local festivities. It was her book Fire in the Plaça (2003) that put some questions to my head about senses and encouraged me to get engaged with sensual experiences of ethnographic fieldwork. nonPeerReviewed

Analysis of the current State of Enterprise Architecture Evaluation Methods and Practices

2008

First published in the Proceedings of the European Conference on Information Management and Evaluation (ECIME 2007), September 20-21, 2007, Montpellier, France Today, more and more organizations adopt enterprise architecture (EA) processes to cope with the changing environment and to improve their performance and competitiveness. However, the evaluation of EA regarding its quality and benefits is rather difficult. The studies of previous research resulted in the recognition that there is no methodology for enabling the EA evaluation by considering the whole EA. Therefore, this paper presents and analyses the current state of methods and practices to evaluate EA from different viewpoints. Th…
