In-flight calibration of the ROSAT HRI ultraviolet sensitivity
2000
Comparing measured and estimated count rates of a few selected sample stars, we confirm the validity and provide the in-flight calibration of the ROSAT HRI UV/visible effective area model in Zombeck et al. The count rate estimates for Betelgeuse derived with this model are in agreement with the measured HRI upper limit. This result is also confirmed in an erratum by Berghöfer et al. aimed at revising their previous calculation, which was overestimated by more than 2 orders of magnitude. Adopting this ROSAT HRI UV/visible effective area model and measured UV/visible spectra of a set of sample stars covering the range of Teff 3000-40,000 K, we have built the calibration curves to estimate UV/…
Verso una dimensione narrativa delle mappe
2021
Tra il pensiero e la costruzione dell’architettura il disegno ha un ruolo baricentrico per connettere i diversi protagonisti di una realizzazione e per coinvolgere la collettività facendo percepire inedite prospettive. La scrittura si rivela utile per esplicitare ciò che nella grafica è sotteso e per stabilire un ordine nuovo nel ragionamento progettuale. I rapporti fra segni e significati si moltiplicano nei sistemi informativi recenti in cui si ha la sensazione di poter dire moltissimo (dati numerici e spaziali) ma a volte sfugge quella sintesi indispensabile per una interpretazione concreta, finalizzata alla costruzione di possibili esperienze fisiche. Per l’esplorazione dell’uso di dive…
Protective role of mindfulness, self-compassion and psychological flexibility on the burnout subtypes among psychology and nursing undergraduate stud…
2021
Abstract To explore the relationship between mindfulness, self-compassion and psychological flexibility, and the burnout subtypes in university students of the Psychology and Nursing degrees, and to analyse possible risk factors for developing burnout among socio-demographic and studies-related characteristics. Design Cross-sectional study conducted on a sample of 644 undergraduate students of Nursing and Psychology from two Spanish universities. Methods The study was conducted between December 2015 and May 2016. Bivariate Pearson's correlations were computed to analyse the association between mindfulness facets, self-compassion and psychological flexibility, and levels of burnout. Multivar…
CALIDAD Y BIENESTAR EN ORGANIZACIONES DE SERVICIOS: EL PAPEL DEL CLIMA DE SERVICIO Y LA JUSTICIA ORGANIZACIONAL
2014
Este trabajo revisa los avances en la línea de investigación sobre Organizaciones de Servicios desarrollada por el IDOCAL (Instituto de Investigación en Psicología de los RRHH, Desarrollo Organizacional y Calidad de Vida Laboral, Universidad de Valencia), y la incardinación de la misma con la investigación internacional. La investigación realizada tiene como objetivo general el hacer compatible el bienestar del trabajador y su desempeño en términos de calidad de servicio ofrecida al usuario, ello en consonancia con la estrategia de la Unión Europea para salir de la crisis. Las grandes temáticas que se tratan son: la calidad de servicio, el clima de servicio, el bienestar y la justicia organ…
Las facetas del bienestar: Una aproximación multidimensional a la calidad de vida en España y sus comunidades autónomas (2006-2015)
2018
El objetivo del proyecto es realizar un estudio empírico de la evolución de la situación de España y de los países de nuestro entorno basada en medidas alternativas del bienestar, obtenidas a partir del índice de Desarrollo Humano y los indicadores de calidad de vida de la OCDE. La idea de “bienestar” o “bien vivir” desde el punto de vista de la evaluación de diferentes políticas es, simultáneamente, un concepto económico, ético y político. Medir el progreso de una sociedad significa evaluar el bienestar de sus individuos considerando las posibilidades, logros y satisfacción de los individuos, y las variables puramente económicas no son sus únicos determinantes. Los individuos se preocupan …

Cassava starch processing at small scale in North Vietnam
2008
International audience; In Northern Vietnam, small-scale cassava starch processing is conducted in densely populated craft villages, where processors face difficulties to expand their activities. Three different processing systems were studied among a cluster of three communes in the Red River Delta, producing up to 430 t of starch (at 55% dry matter) per day. The first system, type A, is a cylindrical rasper and a manual sieve, the second, type B, is a cylindrical rasper and stirring-filtering machine and the third, type C, used equipment for both the rasping and filtering stages. Moisture, starch, crude fibers and ash content analysis were carried out on samples collected from the A-B-C m…
Inhibition of liver trans-sulphuration pathway by propargylglycine mimics gene expression changes found in the mammary gland of weaned lactating rats…
2003
In the lactatingmammary gland, weaning produces mitochondrial cytochrome c release and nuclear DNA fragmentation, as determined by gel electrophoresis. This is followed by a significant decrease in lactation. Weaning for 2 h produces an early induction of the tumour suppressor/transcription factor p53, whereas the oncoprotein c-Jun and c-Jun N-terminal kinase are elevated after 24 h of weaning when compared with controls. The expression of p21cip1 and p27kip1, cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, was significantly higher in weaned rats when compared with control lactating rats. All the changes mentioned above also happen in the lactatingmammary gland when propargylglycine, an inhibitor of th…
Study of the chemical, physical and functional properties of edible starch-based films
2016
The amount of waste increased annually, mainly from plastic industry. Plastic materials were more produced during the only last ten years than during the last millennium. A potential solution of the ecological and economic problems can be biodegradable or edible films and coatings. The goal of this thesis was to study edible films and coatings based on starch. Fifteen types of film-forming solutions were made: 3 types of starch, starch + different amounts of plasticizer, starch + proteins, starch + oil. To better understanding the interaction between film components, physical, chemical and functional tests were done. Finnaly, validation on real foods (plums) as coatings and films helped to …
Non-starter lactic acid bacteria used to improve cheese quality and provide health benefits
2010
Non-starter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB) dominate cheese microbiota during ripening. They tolerate the hostile environment well and strongly influence the biochemistry of curd maturation, contributing to the development of the final characteristics of cheese. Several NSLAB are selected on the basis of their health benefits (enhancement of intestinal probiosis, production of bioactive peptides, generation of gamma-aminobutyric acid and inactivation of antigenotoxins) and are employed in cheese-making. This review describes the ecology of NSLAB, and focuses on their application as adjunct cultures, in order to drive the ripening process and promote health advantages. The scopes of future dire…
