Retorica dello spazio: il caso della street art
2014
La street art è un fenomeno capillare che si dispiega negli spazi urbani con stili e forme diverse. L’intervento prende in esame alcune operazioni artistiche analizzando le strategie retoriche utilizzate. Ricorrendo a diversi regimi di visibilità e utilizzando l’apostrofe, l’iperbole o ancora il camouflage gli artisti creano narrazioni imprevedibili e sollecitano continuamente l’attenzione del fruitore. Gli interventi di street art possono così considerarsi come campi di manovra che instaurano nello spazio urbano conflitti, sfide o complicità con i fruitori e in tal senso si rivela opportuno soffermarsi sui casi di riscrittura o di cancellazione delle opere.
Foxp3 and gata3 polymorphisms, vitamin d3 and multiple sclerosis
2021
Background: Regulatory T cells (Tregs) alterations have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Recently, a crucial role of the X-Linked Forkhead Box P3 (FoxP3) for the development and the stability of Tregs has emerged, and FOXP3 gene polymorphisms have been associated with the susceptibility to autoimmune diseases. The expression of Foxp3 in Tregs is regulated by the transcription factor GATA binding-protein 3 (GATA3) and vitamin D3. The aim of this retrospective case-control study was to investigate the potential association between FOXP3 and GATA3 genetic variants, Vitamin D3, and MS risk. Methods: We analyzed two polymorphisms in the FOXP3 gene (rs3761547 and rs…
Constraining the spin-dependent WIMP-nucleon cross sections with XENON1T
2019
We report the first experimental results on spin-dependent elastic weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) nucleon scattering from the XENON1T dark matter search experiment. The analysis uses the full ton year exposure of XENON1T to constrain the spin-dependent proton-only and neutron-only cases. No significant signal excess is observed, and a profile likelihood ratio analysis is used to set exclusion limits on the WIMP-nucleon interactions. This includes the most stringent constraint to date on the WIMP-neutron cross section, with a minimum of 6.3 × 10−42 cm2 at 30 GeV/c2 and 90% confidence level. The results are compared with those from collider searches and used to exclude new paramet…
Obtaining and Characterisation of Starch-Based Edible Films Incorporating Honey, Propolis and Bee Bread
2019
Abstract This research investigates the physical-chemical, sensorial and mechanical characteristics of starch-based edible films incorporating three types of bee hive products: honey, propolis and bee bread, in concentrations varying from 1% to 3%, reported to starch. The results indicates an increasing of films moisture, water activity, ash content and acidity, in the order: honey<propolis<bee bread, all values increasing with the increasing of hive products percentage into the control film; aw is remaining at very low values, under 0.4. Sensorial analysis indicated honey as the better suited for improving taste and flavour and bee bread for increasing colour intensity of the films; …
Content Variation of Iron and Copper in Wine Obtained from Wine Vineyards Recas
2013
Abstract Wine grapes are brought to the center in baskets, plastic containers, wooden bene, or more modern like metal bene. From picking and transport can be transmitted to grapes, the iron or copper from all equipment on metal and after will be transmitted also to wines produced. It must therefore control of how was made the insulation of protective metal bene to avoid contact the metal with grapes. The aim of this work involves evaluating the content of iron and copper in wines and vineyards of Recas. The results indicated that the values determined by methods Photocolorimeters were within normal limits and revealed that the level of iron and copper in samples analyzed were not influenced…
Synchronization and fluctuations for interacting stochastic systems with individual and collective reinforcement
2020
The Pólya urn is the paradigmatic example of a reinforced stochastic process. It leads to a random (non degenerated) time-limit. The Friedman urn is a natural generalization whose a.s. time-limit is not random anymore. In this work, in the stream of previous recent works, we introduce a new family of (finite) systems of reinforced stochastic processes, interacting through an additional collective reinforcement of mean field type. The two reinforcement rules strengths (one componentwise, one collective) are tuned through (possibly) different rates n −γ. In the case the reinforcement rates are like n −1 , these reinforcements are of Pólya or Friedman type as in urn contexts and may thus lead …

Evaluation agroécologique de systèmes de culture en zone tropicale humide : Cas de la mise en valeur agricole d'une savane herbacée acide (Plaine des…
2013
Dans les régions tropicales humides, concilier intensification agricole et protection des ressources naturelles est un défi majeur et difficile à relever. Dans les savanes acides du nord-est laotien, des systèmes de culture de semis direct sur couverture végétale (SCV), basés sur les trois principes du non-labour, d’une couverture permanente du sol, et sur la pratique de rotations culturales diversifiées, sont proposés comme alternative technique à l’intensification agricole conventionnelle basée sur le labour. Si ces systèmes ont connu une diffusion importante et rapide dans les grandes agricultures mécanisées, leur diffusion reste néanmoins à ce jour limitée en contexte de petite agricult…
Typology of exogenous organic matters based on chemical and biochemical composition to predict potential nitrogen mineralization
2010
Our aim was to develop a typology predicting potential N availability of exogenous organic matters (EOMs) in soil based on their chemical characteristics. A database of 273 EOMs was constructed including analytical data of biochemical fractionation, organic C and N, and results of N mineralization during incubation of soil–EOM mixtures in controlled conditions. Multiple factor analysis and hierarchical classification were performed to gather EOMs with similar composition and N mineralization behavior. A typology was then defined using composition criteria to predict potential N mineralization. Six classes of EOM potential N mineralization in soil were defined, from high potential N minerali…
Effects of adjuvants of the cholera toxin family on CD4 + T cell responses in a murine model of intrarectal immunization with rotavirus-like particles
2011
Mucosal immunization is an important goal of vaccine development to protect against pathogens that use mucosa as portals of entry. However, the use of non-replicating antigens requires the addition of adjuvants.Cholera-like enterotoxins, cholera toxin (CT) from Vibrio cholerae and the heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) from toxinogenic strains of E. coli, as well as the mutant LR-192G and their B subunits (CTB and LTB) have been shown to increase immune responses against unrelated co-administered antigens by mucosal routes. However, their mechanism of action is very complex and not completely understood and differences exist between holotoxins and B subunits and within molecules, differences exis…
