The role of Pseudomonas fluorescens in the process of Rhizoctonia solani growth inhibition
2014
The aim of conducted research was to determine influence of metabolites produced by Pseudomonas fluorescens on the growth of 4 phytopathogenic strains of Rhizoctonia solani marked R1, R2, R3 and R4 which infect sugar beetroot. The antagonistic properties were assessed with the culture-plate method on PDA medium for P. fluorescens cultured for 4, 6 8, 10 and 24 hours at 25 o C for 5 days. The fungistatic activity of P. fluorescens was determined against the growth rate index and the rate of mycelial growth inhibition. Obtained results prove, that Rhizoctonia spp. strains were both sensitive and resistant to metabolites produced by P. fluorescens. The highest inhibition of the linear growth o…
Tempi e modi di un’invasione incontrastata: Pennisetum setaceum (Forssk.) Chiov. (Poaceae) in Sicilia.
2010
Circa 50 anni fa venivano segnalati a Catania e a Palermo i primi due casi di spontaneizza-zione di Pennisetum setaceum (Forssk.) Chiov. sul territorio siciliano. Dopo un breve periodo di latenza, questa pianta paleotropicale ha cominciato a diffondersi sempre più rapidamente, tanto che oggi l'adozione di scelte d'intervento assume carattere d'urgenza per via del pesante impatto che essa ha sia sulle comunità pre-forestali (macchie degradate e garighe) sia sulle praterie perenni e annue locali. Dopo aver fornito una panoramica sul comportamento di questa xeno-fita, viene analizzato il suo processo di espansione in Sicilia e viene comparata l'ampiezza della sua nicchia ecologica con quella d…
COMMUNICATION AS A TRANSVERSAL COMPETENCE FOR THE SCHOOL-FAMILY ALLIANCE. AN INVESTIGATION WITH FOREIGN PARENTS
2022
Tra le 10 competenze che richiedono aggiornamento e formazione, il World Economic Forum (2020) ha inserito al secondo posto la comunicazione. Un processo comunicativo efficace tra le diverse agenzie educative comporta notevoli benefici per tutti gli attori coinvolti nel processo di apprendimento/insegnamento: sugli studenti, sui genitori e sugli insegnanti (Garcìa Bacete & Traver, 2010). In quest’ottica la comunicazione diventa il terreno fertile dell’incontro e il fondamento di ogni comunità (Pati, 1984, p. 61). Acquisire o potenziare le competenze comunicative può essere la chiave di volta per il sostentamento della relazione educativa scuola-famiglia. Nell’ambito del presente studio …
: The medical FASP genre as a teaching tool: authentic or doctored material?
2011
Abstract: This article falls within the scope of an action-based research project conducted at the Dijon School of Medicine. It focuses on the medical FASP genre as a potential pedagogical tool From December 2009 to April 2010, I asked 10 experienced health care professionals from various fields of medical practice, who had obtained an inter-university diploma in medical English, to fill in a questionnaire. The participants, who did not know the titles of the novels or the names of the novelists, were required to comment on six medically-based extracts taken from thrillers during continuing education classes. The aim of the questionnaire was to check the relevance of the specialized vocabul…
Ambigüedades urbanas en el cine de los años veinte
2007
Los historiadores de la arquitectura nos explicarán cómo fueron trazadas y construidas las ciudades de los años veinte y evaluarán en qué medida correspondían con sus representaciones en la pintura, los carteles, la literatura o el cine. Hay, sin embargo, otra forma de abordar el asunto, probablemente más modesta y oblicua, y consiste en preguntarse qué fantasías urbanas circularon entre aquellas gentes que jamás construyeron un edificio, hicieron un plano y ni siquiera sabían, si se nos apura, una palabra de urbanismo. Quizá por ello tuvieron la imaginación libre (podría decirse que demasiado libre) para comunicarlas a las masas que acudían al cine y quién sabe si compartirlas. Y es que la…
Makulas biezums bērniem ar ambliopiju
2022
Bakalaura darbs ir uzrakstīts latviešu valodā uz 29 lapaspusēm. Tas satur 13 attēlus, 6 tabulas un 39 atsauces uz literatūras avotiem. Darba mērķis un uzdevumi bija salīdzināt makulas biezuma izmaiņas bērniem vecumā no 3 līdz 9 gadiem ar un bez ambliopijas, izmantojot optisko koherences tomogrāfiju (OCT). Izpētīt ambliopijas ārstēšanas terapijas ietekmi uz makulas biezuma izmaiņām bērniem ar ambliopiju. Darba ietvaros tika analizētas 85 pacientu makulas biezuma kartes no Bērnu klīniskās universitātes slimnīcas Acu slimības klīnikas. Pacientiem ar ambliopiju un kontroles grupas pacientiem netika konstatēta statistiski nozīmīga atšķirība makulas biezumā centrā, 1, 3, 6 mm gredzenā (p > 0,05).…
FATIGUE, SLEEP, AND NOCTURNAL COMPLAINTS IN PATIENTS WITH AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS.
2012
Background and purpose: Fatigue is a common symptom in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Although sleep disturbances are a candidate factor that may interfere with fatigue in patients with ALS, the role of sleep-related abnormalities in determining fatigue in ALS is unknown. Objective: To evaluate the frequency and determinants of fatigue in a group of 91 consecutive patients with ALS, with special attention to the relationship between fatigue and sleep problems. Methods: Measures included the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), ALS Functional Rating Scale- Revised (ALSFRS-R), and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Results: T…
Effects of the net charge on abundance and stability of supramolecular surfactant aggregates in gas phase
2011
Self-assembling of amphiphilic molecules under electrospray ionization (ESI) conditions is characterized by quite unexpected phenomenology. The noticeable differences with respect to the condensed phase are attributable to the absence of the surfactant-solvent interactions, the presence of net charge in the aggregates, and the strong deviation from equilibrium conditions. Aiming to investigate the effects of the net charge on abundance and stability of supramolecular surfactant aggregates, positively and negatively charged aggregates of sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT) and sodium methane sulfonate (MetS), butane sulfonate (ButS) and octane sulfonate (OctS) have been studied by E…
Functional characterization of the sea urchin sns chromatin insulator in erythroid cells.
2005
Abstract Chromatin insulators are regulatory elements that determine domains of genetic functions. We have previously described the characterization of a 265 bp insulator element, termed sns, localized at the 3′ end of the early histone H2A gene of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus. This sequence contains three cis-acting elements (Box A, Box B, and Box C + T) all needed for the enhancer-blocking activity in both sea urchin and human cells. The goal of this study was to further characterize the sea urchin sns insulator in the erythroid environment. We employed colony assays in human (K562) and mouse (MEL) erythroid cell lines. We tested the capability of sns to interfere with the communi…
