Studies in organic mass spectrometry. Part 23. Role of the aroyl group on the competitive fragmentation reactions of the molecular ion of aroylanilid…
1999
The 70 eV and mass-analysed ion kinetic energy (MIKE) spectra of some thiophenecarboxanilides and benzoylanilides (1–10) have been compared in order to investigate the role of the aroyl (or heteroaroyl) moiety on the abundance of the competitive fragmentation reactions occurring in their molecular ions (amide–bond cleavage and phenol radical ion formation). It has been shown that the electron ionisation induced decompositions with high (70 eV) and low (MIKE) internal energy excess are qualitatively similar, but remarkable quantitative differences have been observed that can be accounted for in terms of the different effectiveness in the transmission of electronic effects of substituents in …
Aplicación de la clasificación de San Diego en el estudio médico-legal de la Muerte Súbita del Lactante
2020
INTRODUCCIÓN La Muerte Súbita del Lactante (MSL) representa un problema universal y grave. El Síndrome de Muerte Súbita del Lactante (SMSL) es la primera causa de muerte en lactantes durante el primer año de vida en países desarrollados y se define como la muerte súbita e inesperada de un lactante, que ocurre durante el sueño y permanece inexplicada tras la realización de una completa investigación postmortem (autopsia con análisis complementarios, examen del lugar de la muerte y revisión de la historia clínica). De esta definición se desprende la clasificación de San Diego basada en las categorías IA, IB y II. Tiene una patogénesis compleja y heterogénea, siendo la teoría del triple riesgo…
A Randomized Controlled Trial Protocol for Using an Accelerometer-Smartphone Application Intervention to Increase Physical Activity and Improve Healt…
2021
Physical activity is beneficial for improving health and reducing sick leave absences. This article describes a protocol for an intervention using an interactive accelerometer smartphone application, telephone counselling, and physical activity recordings to increase the physical activity of workers in the military and improve their health. Under the protocol, employees from six military brigades in Finland will be randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. The intervention group’s participants will use accelerometers to measure their daily physical activities and their quality of sleep for six months. They will receive feedback based on these measurements via a smartphone applic…
Associations of physical activity in detailed intensity ranges with body composition and physical function : a cross-sectional study among sedentary …
2020
Background Physical activity is crucial to maintain older adults’ health and functioning, but the health benefits of particular activity intensities remain unclear. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to peruse the distribution of physical activity, and to investigate the associations of particular physical activity intensities with body composition and physical function among older adults. Methods The sample comprised of 293 community-dwelling sedentary or at most moderately active older adults (42% men, mean age 74 ± 4 years). Physical activity was measured with a hip-worn tri-axial accelerometer over seven consecutive days, and investigated in detailed intensity range and in catego…
Vertikaalihypyn korkeuden arviointi 3D-kiihtyvyysanturilla ja lajinomaisen kuormituksen vaikutukset hyppyyn
2016
Sensoreihin perustuvat menetelmät ovat yleistyneet urheilutestauksessa viime vuosina. Tarkoituksena oli selvittää hyppääjän kenkään kiinnitettävään 3D-kiihtyvyysanturiin perustuvan menetelmän validiteettia vertikaalihypyn korkeuden arvioinnissa. Voimalevyn lentoaikamenetelmää käytettiin kiihtyvyysanturimenetelmän validiteettianalyysissä ja lajikohtaisten kuormitusasetelman vertikaalihypyt arvioitiin kiihtyvyysanturimenetelmällä. Hyppysarjojen korkeimmat hypyt arvioitiin lisäksi voimalevyn lähtönopeusmenetelmällä. Kiihtyvyysanturimenetelmässä käytettiin urheilijan kenkään kiinnitettävää The Stride Sensor Bluetooth® Smart (Polar Electro Oy, Kempele, Suomi) -sensoria. Hyppytestit suoritettiin …
Pratica e criticità delle sopraelevazioni nella costruzione storica palermitana. Practice and deficiencies of additional storeys in the construction …
2017
Per secoli lo sviluppo delle città è avvenuto soprattutto attraverso la trasformazione degli edifici esistenti, in particolare per mezzo di estese sopraele-vazioni. Questa pratica ha portato con sé numerose criticità, connesse alla vulne-rabilità sismica delle strutture e alle condizioni d’igiene e benessere degli ambienti interni e dello spazio urbano circostante. Soprattutto le ultime elevazioni sono esemplari della distanza dalle esigenze di sicurezza strutturale e benessere termico dell’utenza contemporanea, distanza che sempre più spesso si imputa agli edifici storici. In un passato non lontano è stata suggerita anche un’estesa demolizione di tali manufatti, operazione che cercava sost…
Surfactant self-assembling in the gas phase: bis(2-ethylhexyl)- sulfosuccinate divalent metal ion anionic aggregates
2012
RATIONALE: Investigation of fundamental aspects driving surfactant self-assembling and of the capability of including guest molecules or ions in their micellar aggregates is an exciting research field for theoretical and technological reasons. In this light, assembling and chelating properties of sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOTNa) towards divalent metal ion chlorides have been investigated in the gas phase by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in negative ion mode, tandem mass spectrometry and energy-resolved mass spectrometry. METHODS:Water/methanol solutions of AOTNa and chloride salts of nickel, magnesium, calcium and manganese, with different AOTNa/metal salt ratios, …
Gas Phase Charged Aggregates of Bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfo-succinate (AOT) and Divalent Metal Ions. First evidence of AOT solvated aggregates
2011
Assembling and chelating properties of sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOTNa) towards divalent metal ions have been investigated in the gas phase by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. A variety of positively charged monometallated and mixed metal aggregates are formed. Interestingly, several ions contain solvent (MeOH, H2O) molecules and constitute the most abundant AOT cationic aggregates not containing sodium. These species are the first example of solvated AOT-metal ion aggregates in the gas phase. By increasing the surfactant aggregation number, the abundance of solvated species becomes lower than that of unsolvated ones. Decompositions of ionic species have been studied…
Do electrospray mass spectra of surfactants mirror their aggregation state in solution?
2011
One important feature in the gas phase chemistry of surfactants is to ascertain whether their aggregates produced by electrospray ionization reflect those formed in the starting solution. With this aim, we have performed ESI-MS, ESI-MS/MS and ER-MS spectra of bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOTNa) solutions in different solvents, i.e. water, water/methanol, methanol and n-hexane. The results clearly indicate that, notwithstanding the strongly different aggregation state in solution (direct micelles in water and in water/methanol, molecular dispersion in methanol and reverse micelles in n-hexane) and marked effects of the solvent polarity on the total ionic current, the surfactant aggregate…
Review: Mass spectrometry of surfactant aggregates
2011
In contrast with the enormous amount of literature produced during many decades in the field of surfactant aggregation in liquid, liquid crystalline and solid phases, only a few investigations concerning surfactant self-assembling in the gas phase as charged aggregates have been carried out until now. This lack of interest is disappointing in view of the remarkable theoretical and practical importance of the inherent knowledge. The absence of surfactant–solvent interactions makes it easier to study the role of surfactant–surfactant forces in determining their peculiar self-assembling features as well as the ability of these assemblies to incorporate selected solubilizate molecules. Thus, th…
