Los gustos artísticos de los «novatores» valencianos en torno a 1700: la colección de pintura de los marqueses de Villatorcas
2008
La casa del primer marqués de Villatorcas era famosa en la Valencia de finales del siglo xvii por la importante biblioteca que albergaba, sede de reuniones de carácter literario y científico. En 1702, el hijo y heredero del marqués, Juan Basilio Castelví, se casaba con la condesa de Cervellón y, con motivo del matrimonio, su padre le cedió una importante colección de pintura de la que destaca la procedencia italiana de la mayoría de los lienzos, sobre todo napolitanos, y la abundancia de pintura de género, de paisajes, de bodegones o de ruinas. El artículo nos permite estudiar la colección y su distribución en el interior de la vivienda.
Organocatalytic Enantioselective Functionalization of Hydroxyquinolines through an Aza-Friedel-Crafts Alkylation with Isatin-derived Ketimines
2018
[EN] A highly enantioselective addition of hydroxyquinolines to isatin-derived ketimines has been realized using a quinine-derived thiourea organocatalyst. The reaction affords chiral 3-amino-2-oxindoles bearing a quinoline moiety with a quaternary stereocenter in high yields (up to 98%) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99%). Moreover, we can extend this methodology for the enantioselective functionalization of 5-hydroxyisoquinoline. This methodology represents, to the best of our knowledge, the first enantioselective addition of hydroxyquinolines to imines.
Influence of oxygen tension on the anti-inflammatory and chondroprotective effects of heme oxygenase-1 in healthy and osteoarthritic human chondrocyt…

s / Osteoarthritis and Cartilage 20 (2012) S54–S296 S136 their isolation. The absence of cross-reaction with the IIA isoform was established by ELISA andWB. In addition, the Saos-2 cell linewas chosen to test a possible labelling of other fibrillar procollagens, mainly type I, V and XI. In fact, this cell line is described to synthesize the (a1)I, (a2)I, (a1)V, (a2)V, (a1)XI and (a2)XI, but no (a3)XI chains. No signal was detected on WB of cellular extracts or conditioned media with anti-pNIIB52, whereas antibodies to the collagen I, V and XI triple-helical parts revealed indeed the presence of proforms of these collagens. Conclusions: Anti-pNIIB52 antibodies allow a very sensitive and spec…
Determination of lead on the airborne particulates of urban Valencia city
1991
A method for the determination of lead in airborne particulates by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry after extraction with HCl-HNO3 (120–150°C) is described. Particulate lead levels in the atmosphere have been measured in samples collected throughout a year, sampling has been made at eleven sites within the city of Valencia. The results obtained in this study show that annual means of lead levels are within the range of 0.526 to 7.033 μg/m3 depending upon the sampling site. Lead levels are higher in winter and autumn. Lead and nitrogen oxide levels are well correlated.
An environmental study by factor analysis of surface seawaters in the Gulf of Valencia (Western Mediterranean)
1999
Abstract A study is made on the quality of coastal waters in the Gulf of Valencia (Spain) in terms of contamination markers including microbiological agents, toxic heavy metals and nutrients that adversely affect the environment. Relationships are also established between these factors and other physical and chemical parameters. A multivariate analysis is conducted where a total of 14 parameters are established for 919 water samples corresponding to 52 sampling points along the coast of the province of Valencia – specifically, total and fecal coliforms, fecal streptococci, Ni(II), Zn(II), Pb(II), Cd(II), Cu(II) and Cr(VI) concentrations, nitrates, phosphates, dissolved oxygen and finally pH…

Identification of local and allochthonous flint artefacts from the Middle Palaeolithical site ‘Abrigo de la Quebrada’ (Chelva, Valencia, Spain) by ma…
2015
This work summarizes the characterization of flint artefacts from the Middle Palaeolithic site ‘Abrigo de la Quebrada’ (Chelva, Valencia, Spain) and flint geological samples collected in the Chelva area. Additionally, some flint artefacts located outside this geographical zone were also analysed and compared with the samples from the Abrigo de la Quebrada site. Flint samples have been studied using methods of macroscopic description and physicochemical analysis [energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (EDXRF) and X-ray diffraction (XRD)]. Multivariate statistical analysis of the EDXRF data and the determination of the crystalline index of quartz, obtained from the XRD patterns, ar…
Authentication of the protected designation of origin horchata de Valencia through the chemometric treatment of mineral content
2010
Spanish horchata de chufa samples were authenticated based on the determination of mineral elements by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) combined with different chemometric methods. The ability of multivariate analysis, such as principle components analysis (PCA), classification and regression trees (CARTs) and discriminant analysis (DA) were evaluated in order to achieve a correct sample classification. It was possible to clearly differentiate homemade and long-life commercial samples by all three methods and CART and DA provided an excellent tool to establish the growth origin of the tiger nuts. CART analysis employed the concentration of Mg to discriminate…
Bell e net vidre. Producción, distribución y consumo de vidrio en el reino de Valencia durante la Baja Edad Media
2021
El presente artículo analiza el desarrollo de la industria vidriera valenciana entre los siglos XIII y XV. Para ello se recurre a un centenar de documentos de carácter notarial, normativo, judicial y fiscal, procedentes de distintos archivos valencianos. Estos permiten estudiar la localización de los hornos de vidrio en el reino de Valencia y las formas de trabajo de los vidrieros, así como los procesos de distribución y los sistemas de venta del vidrio doméstico. Finalmente, se aborda la demanda y el consumo de estos bienes y sus usos en las viviendas de diferentes sectores sociales de la época. Todo ello invita a reconsiderar la relevancia de esta industria en el reino de Valencia, mucho …
Radon levels in the Valencian community (Spain). I. Results in the province of Valencia (1990–1991)
1995
Abstract Two-day radon screening measurements with charcoal canisters were made in buildings in the province of Valencia throughout the years 1990 and 1991. An average indoor concentration of 34 Bq m −3 was found, and 9% of all measurements exceeded the recommended EPA limit of 148 Bq m −3 .
