Glycoprotein and ganglioside changes in human trophoblasts after exposure to pulsed doppler ultrasound

1995

Changes in glycoprotein and ganglioside composition in human trophoblasts (eighth week of gestation) after in vitro exposure to pulsed Doppler ultrasound (pulse duration 1.22 microseconds; repetition frequency 11.1 kHz; center frequency 4 MHz; ISPPA = 175.5 W/cm2; ISPTA = 0.59 W/cm2) were investigated. Evacuated trophoblasts were divided in two halves and insonated for 10 min on top of a 6-cm layer of 5% gelatin in 50-mL tubes (Falcon) at 37 degrees C. One half of each trophoblast was sham insonated and served as an internal control. After insonation trophoblasts were maintained at 37 degrees C for 24 h. Glycoproteins were detected using alpha-D-mannose specific lectins from Galanthus nival…

Dynamic stability of plane elastic frames

1982

Abstract The stability of plane elastic frames subjected to a vertical foundation motion of the stationary, ergodic type is investigated. The equations of motion are obtained in modal co-ordinates, with account taken of many modes of vibration. The problem is subsequently reduced to the study of only the first mode of vibration. By considering a particular case, the stability domains are sketched as functions of the variation of the rigidities of the beam-column connecting joints and as functions of the number of stories.

Rheological modifiers based on supramolecular block copolymers: From weak associations to interconnected micelles

2019

Abstract The rheological spectra of poly(n-butyl acrylate) in the presence of a series of P(nBA-b-HEMA) rheology modifiers show a two-step relaxation process originating from the PnBA matrix and the self-assemblies. The HEMA segments are further grafted with strong, hydrogen bonding UPy groups, which both magnifies and slows down the relaxation of the assemblies. The extents of associations are enlightened by studying thermal transitions in DSC, morphological developments by SAXS, and description of rheological properties using a tube-based model. It is revealed that a weak association tendency, due to long hydrophobic blocks, leads to the formation of double-linear or star assemblies, whil…

Deciphering la drammatica

2014

Combining metrical structure with gesture and expressiveness, the nineteenth-century Italian actors drew a distinguished form of acting, to which they referred as la drammatica, that was based on a system of vocal modulation. La voce apposita was the predominant drammatica declamation symbol. It signalled an opening voice, or key-voice, which imposed grades and intonations on emotions. The drammatica included four dominant types of voce apposita. The leading actor/actress of a company as well as actor-manager (capocomico) portrayed his/her roles and effected his/her acting fellows’ work. When properly applied, the four types of voce apposita produced a spontaneous and attractive recitation.…

Enhancement of antibiotic productions by plasma modified PLA electrospun membranes in Streptomyces coelicolor immobilized-cell cultivations

2017

This study, encouraging the use of PLA membranes for actinomycetes cultivations, could unveil functional insights associated with antibiotic production and S. coelicolor cellimmobilization

Co-created training program to promote active ageing in people with Down syndrome

2020

Abstract Background Population ageing is a current challenge for the European society. Specifically, People with Down Syndrome (PDS) are living longer than before, reaching some of them around 60 years old. However, it is known that they show premature ageing that in some cases may be misled with Alzheimer first signs. Hence, it is crucial to promote an Active Ageing (AA) and healthy living in this specific population by keeping their cognitive, physical and emotional functions, and also promoting social activities such as community participation. In such way, their Quality of Life (QoL) will be increased. Objectives The main objective of this study was to co-design a Training Program (TP) …

THE REFERENCE SITE COLLABORATIVE NETWORK OF THE EUROPEAN INNOVATION PARTNERSHIP ON ACTIVE AND HEALTHY AGEING

2019

International audience; Seventy four Reference Sites of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (EIP on AHA) have been recognised by the European Commission in 2016 for their commitment to excellence in investing and scaling up innovative solutions for active and healthy ageing. The Reference Site Collaborative Network (RSCN) brings together the EIP on AHA Reference Sites awarded by the European Commission, and Candidate Reference Sites into a single forum. The overarching goals are to promote cooperation, share and transfer good practice and solutions in the development and scaling up of health and care strategies, policies and service delivery models, while at the…

The impact of the EMA change in definition of "dose" on the BCS dose-solubility ratio: a review of the biowaiver monographs.

2013

The Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS) defines the solubility characteristics of an active pharmaceutical substance based on its dose-solubility ratio: for highly soluble drugs this ratio is less than 250 mL over a defined pH range. Prior to the revision of the European Medicines Agency (EMA, formerly EMEA) guideline in 2010, the "dose" in this ratio was consistently defined by the US FDA, the EMA, and the WHO biowaiver guidelines as the highest dosage strength. However, in the revised EMA guideline, the dose is defined as the highest single dose administered according to the Summary of Product Characteristics. The new EMA criterion for highly soluble may be closer to the actual c…
