Matrix solid-phase dispersion microextraction and determination by high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection of pesticide residues in …
1999
A multiresidue method based on matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) microextraction was studied to determine the carbamate, benfuracarb, and urea insecticides, diflubenzuron, flufenoxuron hexaflumuron and hexythiazox, used in control of citrus pests. Optimisation of different parameters, such as the type of solid support for matrix dispersion, elution solvents and the clean-up step were carried out. The method used 0.5 g of orange sample, C8 bonded silica as MSPD sorbent and dichloromethane as eluting solvent. Recoveries, at spiked concentrations below the maximum residue levels established by Spanish Government, were between 74 and 84% with relative standard deviations ranging from 2 to 4%…
El uso de las cartas de servicio en la administración local: el caso del Ayuntamiento de Torrent
2016
Public Administrations have suffered a sort of changes based in changing context and uncertainty. So, traditional Weberian bureaucracy has been adapting itself, embracing new values and tools. In this way, the City Hall of Torrent has developed the strategy called Torrent INNOVA. It was framed inside a quality management system named EVAM framework. Thereby, citizen’s charts are an important instrument in order to manage local context and apply new public administrative innovations.
Association of N-(Pyridin-2-yl),N′-substituted Ureas with 2-Amino-1,8-naphthyridines and Benzoates: NMR and Quantum Chemical Studies of the Substitue…
2013
Association of four N-(pyridin-2-yl),N'-R(1)-ureas (R(1) = ethyl, n-butyl, phenyl, and tert-butyl) with substituted 2-amino-1,8-naphthyridines and benzoates were studied by (1)H NMR spectroscopic titrations and quantum chemical calculations. The benzoates and 2-amino-1,8-naphthyridines were selected as representatives of double and triple hydrogen bonding counterparts, respectively. The classical substituent effect on the association was studied. A prerequisite and a crucial step for the complex formation was the breaking of the intramolecular hydrogen bond in urea derivatives. The QTAIM calculation method was employed to explain the hydrogen bonding within complexes. In the case of benzoat…
Microbiología alimentaria y fenómenos "paranormales" en la historia
2014
A lo largo de la historia han existido fenómenos aparentemente inexplicables cuyos resultados han originado muertes, milagros, juicios por brujería e incluso ganancias y pérdidas de batallas militares. En este artículo se realiza una inspección microbiológica-histórica en donde algunos microorganismos (Claviceps purpurea, Fusarium sporotrichioides, Serratia marcescens y Stachybotrys chartarum), pueden ser los hipotéticos causantes de algunos de estos fenómenos.
International public administration on the tip of the tongue: language as a feature of representative bureaucracy in the Economic Community of West A…
2020
Recent scholarship shows increasing interest in gender, ethnic or national representation within regional and international organizations. In contrast, language as a criterion of representation has rarely been scrutinized. We argue that this constitutes an important oversight for two reasons: (1) language is an important identity marker; and (2) language regimes in international public administrations can uniquely address representativeness relative to both member states and groups of citizens. Our article explores language representation in the Economic Community of West African States, and pursues a twofold objective: first, it extends the applicability of representative bureaucracy theo…
Sorafenib for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: From Randomized Controlled Trials to Clinical Practice.
2015
Hepatocellular carcinoma is a challenging malignancy of global importance. It is the sixth most common solid malignancy and the third leading cause of cancer-related death, worldwide. Curative treatments at early stages include liver transplantation, resection and percutaneous ablation, while transarterial chemoembolization can improve survival in patients with intermediate tumor stage. Patients with mild, related symptoms and/or macrovascular invasion or extrahepatic spread are classified under the advanced stage. The standard of care in this group is sorafenib, an inhibitor of Raf kinase and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor, whose effectiveness has been proven by 2 recent rando…
Progetto STELLA: Rapporto Statistico Laureati 2003-2005
2006
È stata pubblicata la quinta edizione del Rapporto Statistico 2003-2005, nell’ambito del progetto STELLA, promosso dal CILEA dal 2002 per rilevare e gestire dati statistici dei laureati. Il progetto mira a tracciare un quadro di riferimento per i profili dei laureati e il loro inserimento nel mercato del lavoro. Aderiscono, oltre alle principali università lombarde, le università di Pisa, Napoli e Palermo, e la Scuola Superiore di Studi Universitari e Perfezionamento S. Anna di Pisa.
Functional Connection Between the Clb5 Cyclin, the Protein Kinase C Pathway and the Swi4 Transcription Factor in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
2005
Abstract The rsf12 mutation was isolated in a synthetic lethal screen for genes functionally interacting with Swi4. RSF12 is CLB5. The clb5 swi4 mutant cells arrest at G2/M due to the activation of the DNA-damage checkpoint. Defects in DNA integrity was confirmed by the increased rates of chromosome loss and mitotic recombination. Other results suggest the presence of additional defects related to morphogenesis. Interestingly, genes of the PKC pathway rescue the growth defect of clb5 swi4, and pkc1 and slt2 mutations are synthetic lethal with clb5, pointing to a connection between Clb5, the PKC pathway, and Swi4. Different observations suggest that like Clb5, the PKC pathway and Swi4 are in…
Evaluation of changes in salivary composition in renal failure patients before and after hemodialysis
2017
Background Saliva plays a major role in preserving the integrity of oral tissues. The oral health of renal failure patients could be negatively affected by the underlying pathology, the dialysis treatment, or an altered salivary composition. Major systemic changes occur during hemodialysis (HD), which could affect the flow rate and biochemical composition of saliva. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of HD on the salivary flow rate, pH and biochemical composition before and after completion of a dialysis session. Material and methods Thirty Renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria set forth for the s…
Assessment of the capacity of a pyrophosphate-based mouth rinse to inhibit the formation of supragingival dental calculus. a randomized double-blind …
2019
Background This study aimed to analyze the efficacy of an anti-calculus mouth rinse and its possible adverse effects on the mucosa and teeth. Material and Methods This randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial included 40 patients with treated and managed periodontal disease, all with a history of rapid calculus formation. Patients used a pyrophosphate-based test mouth rinse (B) or a placebo (A). A range of parameters were measured for: saliva (saliva flow, pH and chemical composition); calculus (Volpe-Manhold [V-M] index, weight, and volume); adverse effects on mucosa and teeth; and the patients’ subjective perceptive of mouth rinse efficacy. Results The test mouth rinse B …
