Translation as alchemy: the aesthetics of multilingualism in film
2012
The aim of this paper is to explore the aesthetics of multilingualism in film. We start with a discussion of translation strategy in several films and continue with two case studies based on Azur et Asmar (2006) by Michel Ocelot, on the one hand, and Nostalghia (1983) and Offret (1986) by Andrei Tarkovsky, on the other. Our analysis does not involve a comparison between the original dialogues or monologues and their translations into one or several languages, but, rather, it focuses on the role of translation in film making, considering it independently from any pre-existing oral or written texts. This will lead us to a number of reflections about the possibility and the limits of communica…
Caracterización de barita cubana y su reducción carbotérmica en horno de microondas
2007
The Cuban Barite (BaSO4) is characterized by X ray diffraction, chemical analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The principal components are identified and its characteristic morphology is shown. Its carbothermic reduction under microwave irradiation is carried out with the purpose of to improve the yield of this stage during the mineral transformation process in reagent of barium of diverse applications. La barita cubana (BaSO4) se ha caracterizado por difracción de rayos X, análisis químico y microscopía electrónica de barrido. Se han identificado sus componentes mayoritarios y así mismo se muestra su morfología característica. Se ha realizado su reducción carbotérmica en horno de mic…
Gestational surrogacy. Current view
2019
Surrogate motherhood is an assisted procreation practice by which a woman gestates an embryo with which she has no biological relationship on behalf of a contracting couple or individual, having to relinquish the child to them after its birth. This practice normally entails a financial remuneration for the pregnant woman; when this is not the case, it is called altruistic surrogacy. From a medical perspective, potential problems for the surrogate and for children born through this practice should be taken into account, especially the existence of possible disabilities in the child. The bioethical aspects are of most interest because the practice of surrogacy objectifies the expectant mother…
Jóvenes migrantes al habla: trayectorias educativas y vidas con género
2018
El artículo muestra la tensión biográfica y el proceso educativo de dos jóvenes menores que viajaron de África a Europa a través de construcciones biográficas marcadas por el paso de sociedad de origen a sociedad de destino. El relato y la representación gráfica de la trayectoria vivida aportan elementos de reflexión sobre el encauzamiento del alumnado de incorporación tardía en nuestra sociedad. Ambas biografías se extraen de una investigación que tiene por objeto conocer qué hace posible la progresión educativa exitosa del alumnado de incorporación tardía que vive en contextos vulnerables. A través de trayectorias encauzadas por el género y una clase social de origen media, Badra y Dakar …
Transport of C(4)-dicarboxylates in Wolinella succinogenes.
2000
ABSTRACT C 4 -dicarboxylate transport is a prerequisite for anaerobic respiration with fumarate in Wolinella succinogenes , since the substrate site of fumarate reductase is oriented towards the cytoplasmic side of the membrane. W. succinogenes was found to transport C 4 -dicarboxylates (fumarate, succinate, malate, and aspartate) across the cytoplasmic membrane by antiport and uniport mechanisms. The electrogenic uniport resulted in dicarboxylate accumulation driven by anaerobic respiration. The molar ratio of internal to external dicarboxylate concentration was up to 10 3 . The dicarboxylate antiport was either electrogenic or electroneutral. The electroneutral antiport required the prese…
Quantitative colorimetric analysis of some inorganic salts using digital photography
2011
An analytical imaging approach to the quantitation of dissolved chemical species absorbed in the visible spectral region is reported. The approach uses digital images of a series of standard solutions of the target substance and their processing with appropriate software to assign a numeric value to each standard in terms of color intensity. Such a value is directly proportional to the analyte concentration and allows the construction of a calibration graph. The results thus obtained are compared with those provided by the classical spectrophotometricmethod used to run calibration curves for colored substances. The chemical imaging technique is relative simple and affordable; in fact, it ca…
El género y el registro aplicado a la traducción del discurso profesional en la lengua inglesa : un enfoque funcional
1999
Este trabajo aborda la traducción de un texto de ámbito profesional, es decir, de traducción especializada, desde los parámetros del género y del registro. Parte de presupuestos teóricos y propone un protocolo de análisis previo a la traducción. Atiende a las funciones comunicativas o retóricas de cada género, las analiza y busca equivalencias en la lenguas meta. Igualmente ocurre con el registro, el cual se divide en campo, tenor y modo, tres conceptos que se aplican a textos profesionales, dando como resultado un conocimiento en profundidad del léxico, gramática y sintaxis, así como de la relación entre autor y lector.

Folate-mediated targeting of polymeric conjugates of gemcitabine.
2005
The synthesis of two new macromolecular prodrugs for active tumor targeting was set up. Gemcitabine (2'-deoxy-2',2'-difluorocytidine) was conjugated to alpha,beta-poly(N-2-hydroxyethyl)-DL-aspartamide (PHEA) through succinyl or diglycolyl hydrolysable spacers. The targeting agent folic acid was attached to the macromolecular backbone through the aminocaproic spacer. The two conjugates [PHEA-(5'-succinylgemcitabine)-1'-carboxypentyl-folamide and PHEA-(5'-diglycolyl-gemcitabine)-1'-carboxypentyl-folamide], were purified and extensively characterised by spectroscopic (UV, IR and NMR) and chromatographic analyses to determine the correct chemical structure, the purity degree and the reaction yi…
Succinobucol’s New Coat — Conjugation with Steroids to Alter Its Drug Effect and Bioavailability
2011
Synthesis, detailed structural characterization (X-ray, NMR, MS, IR, elemental analysis), and studies of toxicity, antioxidant activity and bioavailability of unique potent anti-atherosclerotic succinobucol-steroid conjugates are reported. The conjugates consist of, on one side, the therapeutically important drug succinobucol ([4-{2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-[(1-{[3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-5-(propan-2-yl)phenyl]sulfanyl}ethyl)sulfanyl]phenoxy}-4-oxo-butanoic acid]) possessing an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, and on the other side, plant stanol/sterols (stigmastanol, β-sitosterol and stigmasterol) possessing an ability to lower the blood cholesterol level. A cholesterol-succinobucol prodr…
