Liquid gas techniques for GC trace analysis
1990
Liquid gases (LG), i.e. low boiling compounds with vapor pressures below 5 bar at room temperature, are introduced as solvents for trace analyses. A system for preparin, diluting and handling LG solutions safely and conveniently in 5 to 500 μl amounts was developed as well as a syringe for direct injection of μl-LG samples into capillary GC. Even technical grade LG are of high purity. GC/FID of LG solutions (starting at −60°C) allows the separation of volatile traces from the solvent peak: e.g., dichloromethane can be measured in the picogram range.
Characterization and quantitation of mixtures of alkyl ether sulfates and carboxylic acids by capillary electrophoresis with indirect photometric det…
2003
The separation, characterization, and determination of mixtures of alkyl ether sulfates (AES) and fatty acids (C10-C16) in background electrolytes (BGEs) containing acetonitrile (ACN)-water mixtures is addressed. Due to inhibition of the ionization of the carboxylate groups, the migration time and the resolution between the fatty acids decreased when the water content of the BGE was reduced, but efficiency and resolution between the AES oligomers improved. The migration times increased and resolution improved by substituting 5% ACN by an equivalent amount of dioxane. A complete separation of the two surfactant classes, up to the AES oligomers with 8 ethylene oxide units (EOs) with respect t…
Effects of Parietaria judaica pollen extract on human microvascular endothelial cells
2008
Abstract Pollinosis from Parietaria judaica is one of the main causes of allergy in the Mediterranean area. The present study is designed to assess if P. judaica pollens contain bioactive compounds able to elicit a functional response in endothelial cells. We have demonstrated that addition of pollen extract to human lung microvascular endothelial cells (HMVEC-L) induces a modification of cell morphology, actin cytoskeletal rearrangements and an increase in endothelial cell permeability. We further showed that the treatment of endothelial cells with pollen extract causes an increase of E-selectin and VCAM-1 protein levels as well as an increase of IL-8 production. The stimulation of cell–ce…
apuesta por un reconocimiento constitucional amplio del derecho al trabajo y a la seguridad social en Ecuador
2021
espanolLa integracion del derecho al trabajo en el constitucionalismo social de posguerra se caracterizo, entre otras cuestiones, por la incorporacion de la division del trabajo, diferenciando entre aquel remunerado, integrado en las normas constitucionales y sobre el que se asento en gran medida el reconocimiento de un amplio conjunto de derechos sociales; y el no remunerado, ausente del reconocimiento constitucional y normativo y condenado a la invisibilizacion y a ser acumulado sobre el anterior. Esta diferenciacion se fundamento, evidentemente, en la division sexual del trabajo integrada en la conjuncion del patriarcado con el sistema capitalista y recogida en las normas del constitucio…
Rapid automatized naming in early literacy
2019
Esta comunicación se encuentra disponible en la siguiente URL: http://www.infad.eu/RevistaINFAD/OJS/index.php/IJODAEP/article/view/1465/1274 Este número está dedicado a la "Psicología de la Educación y Saberes Originarios". Although the relation between Rapid Automatized Naming (RAN) and Reading is clear, there is no a standardized test to measure the speed of naming in early literacy. The aim is to explore and confirm the factorial structure of the RAN test developed by Wolf and Denkla (2003) in children. RAN test was administred to 442 children aged 4-5 years. Results highlighted two factors: a “nonalphanumeric components” factor which includes “RAN colors” and “RAN images” and an “alphan…
Gender and potential wage in Europe: a stochastic frontier approach
2011
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to provide evidence concerning wage differentials and the existence of gender pay discrimination in France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom.Design/methodology/approachThe authors used the stochastic frontier approach as an alternative method to measure the relevance of gender discrimination. This methodology allows them to explain the differences between the potential and the observed wage that an individual could obtain, given his or her human capital endowment.FindingsThe authors found support for wage discrimination against women. The results show that a significant part of the gender wage gap in all the countries analysed is not attributa…
Alternatīvie korekcijas darba paņēmieni bērniem ar smagiem garīgās attīstības traucējumiem
2021
Garīgās attīstības traucējumi ir prāta spēju traucējumi, kas iedzimst vai rodas dzīves laikā un kuri neatjaunojas un nav izārstējami. Statistikas dati pierāda, ka ikgadu bērnu skaits ar smagiem garīgās attīstības traucējumiem pieaug. Diplomdarba mērķis: izpētīt bērnu ar smagiem garīgās attīstības traucējumiem attīstības dinamiku pielietojot alternatīvos korekcijas darba paņēmienus. Mērķa sasniegšanai izvirzīti vairāki darba uzdevumi: veikt literatūras analīzi par tēmu, veikt pētījumu, veikt pētījumā iegūto datu apstrādi un analīzi, veikt secinājumus par iegūtajiem datiem, pārbaudīt hipotēzi. Diplomdarbu veido divas daļas – teorētiskā un empīriskā. Darba teorētiskā daļa sastāv no divām nodaļ…
On the effectiveness of spif process to re-form end-of-life components as compared to conventional forming approach
2021
Manufacturing processes have a significant impact on global energy consumptions. The recovery of materials and functions for the implementation of the Circular Economy principle needs to be focused on either, by utilizing new techniques or the rethinking of old processes to rework End-of-Life (EoL) components. Previous researches have shown Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) process as a good alternative for sheet metal EoL components reuse by their reshaping. In this article, the authors aim to study the effectiveness of the SPIF processes by comparing its reshaping performance with other, more conventional forming processes. An initial Deep Drawing (DD) process was performed to imita…
A systematic review and meta-analysis on the effectiveness of xenograft to prevent periodontal defects after mandibular third molar extraction.
2021
Background To evaluate the use of guided bone regeneration with xenograft to prevent periodontal defect in the distal aspect of the second molar after the surgical removal of the mandibular third molar. Material and Methods Three electronic databases (Pubmed, Cochrane Library and Scopus) were searched in April 2020. Randomized clinical trials in non-smokers and healthy patients, with at least six months follow-up, comparing periodontal probing depth, clinical attachment level, alveolar bone level and adverse events were selected by two independent investigators. The risk of bias assessment of the selected studies was evaluated by means of the Cochrane Collaboration’s Tool. Finally, a meta-a…
