Pourquoi la génétique humaine a-t-elle besoin des sciences humaines et sociales ?
2019
L’introduction récente du séquençage haut débit du génome détermine une situation complexe marquée du sceau de l’accélération ; elle pose des problèmes éprouvés par les patients, les médecins ou les chercheurs à partir d’expériences de pratique clinique ou de recherche. Ces pratiques situées suscitent un besoin de réflexivité souvent difficile à assumer dans l’urgence de l’action et la segmentation encore forte des métiers. La Fédération Hospitalo-Universitaire (FHU) TRANSLAD Bourgogne Franche Comté constitue une structure pluridisciplinaire et plurielle pour encadrer l’arrivée du séquençage haut débit dans le soin. Ne préjugeant pas de ses objets, fonctions ou champs, elle se situe d’abord…
An automatic flow-through system for exploration of the human bioaccessibility of endocrine disrupting compounds from microplastics
2021
This article reports on the first attempt towards investigating the leaching rates in the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract of plastic-borne contaminants that can be ingested accidentally using physiologically relevant body fluids. Oral bioaccessibility under fasted and fed states was determined in dynamic mode exploiting an automatic flow setup. The flow system is able to mimic the fast uptake of the released species from the polymeric matrix by absorption in the human digestive system by the in-line removal of the leached species. Complex GI extractants based on the Unified Bioaccessibility Method (UBM, fasted state) and Versantvoort test (fed-state) were brought through a microplastic-lo…
119Sn-NMR Study on Bis(Tri-Butyltin)oxide Derivatives of Phenolic Compounds
1991
Abstract 119Sn-NMR spectroscopy has been utilized in the characterization of various phenolics as their bis(tri-butyltin)oxide, TBTO, derivatives. The present method has been applied both for determination of simple model compounds and for characterization of complex biopolymeric material originating from spent bleach liquor fractionated by an ultrafiltration technique. Based on the large range of 119Sn-NMR chemical shifts of TBTO derivatives of the phenolic compounds and the similar relaxation properties of 119Sn nuclei located in those derivatives, both qualitative and quantitative analytical conclusions can be drawn.
Isolation and toxicity of Bacillus thuringiensis from potato-growing areas in Bolivia
2004
Bacillus thuringiensis was isolated from 116 samples collected in high altitude potato-growing areas in Bolivia. In these regions, main potato pests are the potato tuberworm Phthorimaea operculella, and the Andean weevils Premnotrypes latithorax and Rhigopsidius tucumanus. B. thuringiensis was found in 60% of the samples. The main percentage of samples with B. thuringiensis was found in larvae of R. tucumanus (78%). Bioassays were performed with 112 isolates. None resulted toxic to either larvae or adults of the two Andean weevils. However, 18 isolates from this study showed more toxicity against the beet armyworm Spodoptera exigua than the standard strain var. kurstaki isolated from DELFIN…
Cellular imaging using BODIPY-, pyrene- and phthalocyanine-based conjugates
2017
International audience; Fluorescent Probes aimed at absorbing in the blue/green region of the spectrum and emitting in the green/red have been synthesized (as the form of dyads-pentads), studied by spectrofluorimetry, and used for cellular imaging. The synthesis of phthalocyanine-pyrene 1 was achieved by cyclotetramerization of pyrenyldicyanobenzene, whereas phthalocyanine-BODIPY 2c was synthesized by Sonogashira coupling between tetraiodophthalocyanine and meso-alkynylBODIPY. The standard four-steps BODIPY synthesis was applied to the BODIPY-pyrene dyad 3 starting from pyrenecarbaldehyde and dimethylpyrrole. H-1, C-13, F-19, (BNMR)-B-11, ICP, MS, and UV/Vis spectroscopic analyses demonstra…

Imation of land surface emissivity differences in the split-window channels of AVHRR
1994
Abstract A method for estimating the difference between the channel emissivities in NOAA-AVHRR Channels 4 and 5 is proposed and applied to a data set from the HAPEX-MOBILHY experiment. The method is based on the separation between the atmospheric and emissivity effects in the brightness temperature difference measured with AVHRR Channels 4 and 5. Atmospheric profiles coincident to the satellite overpass and a radiative transfer model are required to estimate the atmospheric correction for brightness temperatures. With this procedure, the emissivity difference Δe is obtained at the satellite spatial and spectral resolution, which has a great interest for correcting thermal images with the sp…
L-Band Vegetation optical depth and effective scattering albedo estimation from SMAP
2017
Abstract Over land the vegetation canopy affects the microwave brightness temperature by emission, scattering and attenuation of surface soil emission. Attenuation, as represented by vegetation optical depth (VOD), is a potentially useful ecological indicator. The NASA Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission carries significant potential for VOD estimates because of its radio frequency interference mitigation efforts and because the L-band signal penetrates deeper into the vegetation canopy than the higher frequency bands used for many previous VOD retrievals. In this study, we apply the multi-temporal dual-channel retrieval algorithm (MT-DCA) to derive global VOD, soil moisture, and ef…
Roughness and vegetation parameterizations at L-band for soil moisture retrievals over a vineyard field
2015
Abstract The capability of L-band radiometry to monitor surface soil moisture (SM) at global scale has been analyzed in numerous studies, mostly in the framework of the ESA SMOS and NASA SMAP missions. To retrieve SM from L-band radiometric observations, two significant effects have to be accounted for, namely soil roughness and vegetation optical depth. In this study, soil roughness effects on retrieved SM values were evaluated using brightness temperatures acquired by the L-band ELBARA-II radiometer, over a vineyard field at the Valencia Anchor Station (VAS) site during the year 2013. Different combinations of the values of the model parameters used to account for soil roughness effects (…
A generalized soil-adjusted vegetation index
2002
Operational monitoring of vegetative cover by remote sensing currently involves the utilisation of vegetation indices (VIs), most of them being functions of the reflectance in red (R) and near-infrared (NIR) spectral bands. A generalized soil-adjusted vegetation index (GESAVI), theoretically based on a simple vegetation canopy model, is introduced. It is defined in terms of the soil line parameters (A and B) as: GESAVI=(NIRBRA)/(R+Z), where Z is related to the red reflectance at the cross point between the soil line and vegetation isolines. As Z is a soil adjustment coefficient, this new index can be considered as belonging to the SAVI family. In order to analyze the GESAVI sensitivity to s…
