1,1prime-Binaphthyl-2-methylpyridinium-based peroxophosphotungstate salts: synthesis, characterization, and their use as oxidation catalysts
2009
A series of 1,1′-binaphthyl-2-methylammonium and pyridinium salts 6, 7, and 8 was synthesized through the coupling reaction of 2-(bromomethyl)-1,1′-binaphthalene (5) with the dendritic tetraallyl pyridinedicarbinol dendron 2 as well as triethylamine and 4-tert-butylpyridine. Tetraallyl pyridinedicarbinol dendron 2 was prepared by allylation of commercially available diethyl pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate (1). The allylation of 2 with allyltrimethylsilane in the presence of boron trifluoride was unsuccessful, as tetraallyl pyridinedicarbinol trifluoroboron adduct 3 was obtained instead of expected hexaallylpyridine compound 4. The catalytic hydrogenation of allyl groups of the ammonium salt of 2…
Trifolium – nieformalne porozumienie senatorów koronnych z lat trzydziestych XVII w
2020
Część historyków kwestionuje polityczne znaczenie trifolium — trójlistnej koniczyny, nieformalnego porozumienia senatorów koronnych, w którego skład wchodzili: kanclerz Jakub Zadzik, biskup chełmiński, hetman Stanisław Koniecpolski i Stanisław Lubomirski, wojewoda ruski. W latach 1631–1632 trifolium z powodzeniem popierało uposażenie członków rodziny królewskiej w Rzeczypospolitej, ale z powodu opozycji przedstawicieli Wielkiego Księstwa Litewskiego nie udało się przeprowadzić reformy elekcji. Podczas bezkrólewia w 1632 r. trifolium skutecznie sprzeciwiało się osłabieniu pozycji króla i senatu na rzecz izby poselskiej. W 1632 r. trifolium poparło wybór królewicza Władysława Wazy na tron pol…
Enabling Energy Savings in Offshore Mechatronic Systems by using Self-Contained Cylinders
2019
This paper proposes a novel actuation system for an offshore drilling application. It consists of three self-contained electro-hydraulic cylinders that can share and store regenerated energy. The energy saving potential of the proposed solution is analyzed through a multibody system simulation. The self-contained system demonstrates superior energy efficiency compared to the benchmark system representing the state-of-the-art approach used today (i.e., valve-controlled cylinders by means of pressure-compensated directional control valves and counter-balance valves, supplied by a centralized hydraulic power unit). Due to the power on demand capability, the cancellation of the throttling losse…
Synthesis and Molecular Modeling Studies of Derivatives of a Highly Potent Peptidomimetic Vinyl Ester as Falcipain-2 Inhibitors
2012
Herein we report the synthesis of a set of constrained peptidomimetics endowed with an electrophilic vinyl ester warhead and structurally related to a previously identified lead compound, a potent and irreversible inhibitor of falcipain-2 (FP-2). FP-2 is the main hemoglobinase of the malaria parasite P. falciparum. The new compounds were evaluated for their inhibition against FP-2, and the results were rationalized on the basis of docking experiments. These studies underscore the pivotal role of both the ester function at the P1' site and the trifluoromethyl group of the P3 side chain in determining the correct orientation of the Michael acceptor warhead in the catalytic site, and as a cons…
The use of an integrative approach to identify coelomocytes in three species of the genus Holothuria (Echinodermata)
2021
Coelomocytes in the Holothuroidea are traditionally identified according to their morphology through light, fluorescence, or electron microscopy. Former studies have typically used only one method, with few works combining two or more approaches. Studies using cytocentrifugation to study these cells are scarcer. Thus, for the first time, an integrative approach was used to compare coelomocytes in Holothuroidea. This approach consisted of living and stained cells, scanning electron microscopy (for spherule cells), and accurate morphometric analyses. Specifically, we used specimens of Holothuria grisea, Holothuria arenicola, and Holothuria tubulosa to test whether cytocentrifugation could be …

Discharge management in fresh and brackish water RAS: Combined phosphorus removal by organic flocculants and nitrogen removal in woodchip reactors
2020
The current study combined P and N removal using organic flocculant chemicals and woodchip bioreactors in both freshwater and brackish water (7 ppm) recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS). The use of carbon (C) containing flocculant chemicals in the process was hypothesized to further stimulate C-demanding N removal (denitrification) in bioreactors. The trial of combined P and N removal consisted of four treatments: freshwater and brackish water RAS with and without the addition of supernatant from flocculation process to the woodchip reactor. Duplicate woodchip reactors were used per treatment and the trial was run for six weeks. 56 % and 49 % of P was removed from fresh and brackish slud…
Resistant ammonia-oxidizing archaea endure, but adapting ammonia-oxidizing bacteria thrive in boreal lake sediments receiving nutrient-rich effluents
2018
Climate change along with anthropogenic activities changes biogeochemical conditions in lake ecosystems, modifying the sediment microbial communities. Wastewater effluents introduce nutrients and organic material but also novel microbes to lake ecosystems, simulating forthcoming increases in catchment loadings. In this work, we first used 16s rRNA gene sequencing to study how the overall sediment microbial community responds to wastewater in six boreal lakes. To examine forthcoming changes in the lake biogeochemistry, we focused on the ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB), and examined their functional and compositional community response to wastewater. Although we found the l…
Rapid change in forms of inorganic nitrogen in soil and moderate weed invasion following translocation of wet meadows to reclaimed post‐industrial la…
2019
Anthropogenic expansion and loss of natural environments calls for the more sustainable use of resources, including land. To combine the conservation of highly valuable meadow habitat with reclamation of post‐industrial land, 1.3 ha of turf were translocated from an urban area to basins constructed near an abandoned quarry. In contrast to the usual method of choosing similar habitats as salvage sites, the selected quarry possessed different environmental properties to the meadows, challenging their acclimatisation. To evaluate the project, we monitored three meadows (Molinion caeruleae alliance) for three seasons: immediately before the transfer and for 2 years afterwards. We recorded veget…
Ložņu āboliņa (Trifolium repens L.) Karpatu kalnu un Latvijas populāciju ģenētiskās daudzveidības salīdzinājums
2019
Sandra Dombrovska (2019): Ložņu āboliņa (Trifolium repens L.) Karpatu kalnu un Latvijas populāciju ģenētiskās daudzveidības salīdzinājums. Ložņu āboliņš (Trifolium repens L.) ir viens no plaši izmantotajiem lopbarības augiem visā pasaulē. Izmantots kā modeļobjekts. Bakalaura darba mērķis ir salīdzināt Karpatu kalnu savvaļas populāciju un šķirnes “Daile” materiālu daudzveidību un retrotranspozonu kustību pēc UV gaismas stresora ietekmes. Bakalaura darba izstrādes laikā tika izdalīts DNS no 117 izkaltētiem paraugiem. Tika veikta iPBS analīze, klasteru analīze, UV-B starojuma ietekmes analīze. Rezultāti liecina, ka šķirnes "Daile" populācija iedalās divās atsevišķās grupās un Slovākijas genoti…
