Piesātinājuma spektroskopijas signālu modelēšana 87Rb D2 pārejai AC-Štarka efekta ietekmē

2016

Darba pamatā ir piesātinājuma spektroskopijas eksperimenta $^{85}Rb$/$^{87}Rb$ planajā šūnā absorbcijas signālu aproksimācija. No $^{87}$Rb D2 $F_g$=2 aproksimācijas datiem tiek veikti SSS pārēju frekvences pārbaudes (D. Steck "Rubidium 87 D Line Data"). Tiek modelētas magnetiskā dipola $\mathcal{A}$ un elektriskā kvadrupola $\mathcal{B}$ konstantes un ar to inkorporāciju $\Delta E_{HFS}$ ir salīdzināti ierosinātas SSS termi, veikta analīze par $\mathcal{A}$, $\mathcal{B}$ atkarību no lauka jaudas. Veiktā arī $F_g=2 \rightarrow F_e$ \textit{VSOPS} relatīvo stiprumu pārbaude. Eksperiments veikts ar Kvantu Frekvenču Ķemmi, kura deva iespēju iegūt pārēju absolūtas frekvences vērtības kombināci…

Extraterrestrial Mössbauer Spectroscopy

2011

To understand the origin of the Solar system and the origin of Life itself is one of the longest standing goals of human thought. Our Sun and its planets have formed out of an interstellar cloud which collapsed due to gravitational forces, forming a disk shaped so-called protosolar nebula, with the young star in the centre. Such disk shaped and dust grain containing protosolar nebulae have been observed. One of them is surrounding the young star Beta pictoris [1, 2]. Silicates, carbon and metal grains, oxides and sulfides should have been present. One of the important elements with relatively high abundance is iron. It is believed that simple molecules, such as water (H2O), carbon monoxide …

Taxonomic identity, geographic distribution and commercial exploitation of the culinary-medicinal mushroom Pleurotus nebrodensis

This work provides an updated overview of an investigation carried out in Europe and elsewhere on the culinary-medicinal mushroom Pleurotus nebrodensis. In particular, the taxonomic identitiy of P. nebrodensis and other related oyster mushrooms with entirely white to cream basidiomata that grow on different plants of the family Apiaceae, is clarified. The differences in the cultivation techniques, the quality of product sold and the sales price in Europe and Asia are also highlighted. Taking also into consideration the importance of P. nebrodensis from the medicinal point of view, it appears appropriate to proceed with a verification of the commercial strains currently available in the inte…

Genetic polymorphism and taxonomic infrastructure of the Pleurotus eryngii species-complex as determined by RAPD analysis, isozyme profiles and ecomo…

2001

The Pleurotus eryngii species-complex includes populations of choice edible mushrooms, growing in the greater Mediterranean area in close association with different genera of plants of the family Apiaceae. Their distinct host-specialization served as the principal criterion for the discrimination of several taxa; however, the genetic relationships among the various P. eryngii ecotypes remain ambiguous. In the present study, 46 Pleurotus strains with a wide range of geographical origins were isolated from Eryngium spp., Ferula communis, Cachrys ferulacea, Thapsia garganica and Elaeoselinum asclepium subsp. asclepium, and were subjected to isozyme and random amplified polymorphic DNA-PCR (RAP…

Análisis de las experiencias de presupuesto participativo de la Comunitat Valenciana a través de una taxonomía

2021

Después de casi treinta años de una de las experiencias de participación más innovadoras, al incluir en el proceso de decisión presupuestaria al ciudadano común, el Orçamento Participativo de Porto Alegre (Brasil) se ha paralizado y comienza a plantearse su futuro. Esta práctica que se inició con mucha euforia y esperanza (que se apreciaba incluso en las reflexiones académicas sobre ella), ha ido perdiendo a lo largo del tiempo impulso y adhesión en Brasil y, recientemente, ha empezado a cuestionarse su efectividad e impacto. En los últimos trabajos colectivos publicados en Brasil (Pires et al., 2011; Lavalle, 2011) se explica lo que empírica e intuitivamente ya se venía sospechando: no es …

Does the frequency of switching inhalers represent a predictive factor of exacerbation in asthma?

2020

Objective: Management of asthma includes monitoring of inhaler technique and level of adherence to treatment. Both factors could be influenced by high frequency of switching inhaler devices. We explored whether switching inhalers is an independent predictive factor of exacerbations. Methods: Data were collected from 2015 to 2017 from the outpatient clinic of asthma at the University of Palermo, Italy. This observational study consisted of two phases: Phase 1 included subjects of at least three visits in the previous year who reported the frequency of inhalers switched; Phase 2 included subjects of at least two visits during the second year, and the rate of switches and exacerbations was rec…

The inhalation manager: a new computer-based device to assess inhalation technique and drug delivery to the patient.

2003

The rational choice of an inhalation device is a cornerstone in the effective management of asthma and COPD. In this publication, we describe the development of a new system, the Inhalation Manager, which, for the first time, offers the possibility to assess the entire inhalation maneuver of patients using original devices under everyday conditions. So far the Inhalation Manager allows the measurement of inspiratory maneuvers of patients through placebo inhalation devices of the most common breath-actuated CFC-free inhalers in the market for the three main glucocorticosteroids Budesonide [Turbohaler (TH), dry powder inhaler (DPI)], Beclomethasone dipropionate [Autohaler (AH), breath-actuate…

Physicochemical compatibility of mixtures of dornase alfa and tobramycin containing nebulizer solutions

2008

Patients suffering from cystic fibrosis (CF) often need to inhale multiple doses of different nebulizable drugs per day. Patients attempt to shorten the time consuming administration procedure by mixing drug solutions/suspensions for simultaneous inhalation. The objective of this experimental study was to determine whether mixtures of the nebulizer solution dornase alfa (Pulmozyme) with tobramycin nebulizer solutions (TOBI and GERNEBCIN 80 mg) are physico-chemically compatible. Drug combinations were prepared by mixing the content of one respule Pulmozyme with either one respule TOBI or one ampoule GERNEBCIN 80 mg. Test solutions were stored at room temperature and exposed to light. Dornase…

Physicochemical compatibility and stability of nebulizable drug admixtures containing Dornase alfa and tobramycin.

2012

The objective of this in-vitro study was to determine whether admixtures of the inhalation solutions Pulmozyme(®) (Dornase alfa) and either Bramitob(®) or Tobi(®) (both containing Tobramycin) are physicochemically compatible and to analyze the aerodynamic parameters of these admixtures. After mixing, test solutions were stored at room temperature and under ambient light conditions over a period of 24 h. Tobramycin concentrations were determined by using a fluorescence immunoassay. Stability of dornase alfa was determined by size-exclusion high performance liquid chromatography, ultraviolet spectroscopy, sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and tentacle strong cation-exc…
