Agro-Morphological Characterization of Sicilian Chili Pepper Accessions for Ornamental Purposes
2020
The species belonging to the genus Capsicum have been widely used as decorative vegetables, however only a few genotypes are available for this purpose. The goal of the present work was the agro-morphological characterization of several chili pepper accessions cultivated into different pot sizes (10, 14, 18 or 20 cm diameters). The agro-morphological characterization of 19 accessions was performed following IPGR (International Plant Genetic Resources Institute) descriptors: plant height (PH), plant canopy width (PCW), PH/PCW ratio, plant growth habit, plant visual quality, first flower emission, fruiting start, end of harvest, fruit number, fruit length, fruit width, fruit color at mature s…
Colletotrin: a sesquiterpene lactone from the endophytic fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides associated with Trichilia monadelpha
2017
Abstract A new sesquiterpene lactone, namely colletotrin (1), together with two known fungal metabolites (2, 3), was obtained from a rice culture of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, an endophytic fungus isolated from the stem bark of Cameroonian medicinal plant Trichilia monadelpha (Meliaceae). The structure of the new compound was established on the basis of extensive NMR analysis (1H, 13C, heteronuclear single-quantum coherence and heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation) completed by high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy results and by comparison of these data with those of related compounds described in the literature. Their cytotoxic and antibacterial activities agai…
Application of Pinhole Plasma Jet Activated Water against Escherichia coli, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, and Decontamination of Pesticide Residues…
2022
Plasma activated water (PAW) generated from pinhole plasma jet using gas mixtures of argon (Ar) and 2% oxygen (O2) was evaluated for pesticide degradation and microorganism decontamination (i.e., Escherichia coli and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides) in chili (Capsicum annuum L.). A flow rate of 10 L/min produced the highest concentration of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at 369 mg/L. Results showed that PAW treatment for 30 min and 60 min effectively degrades carbendazim and chlorpyrifos by about 57% and 54% in solution, respectively. In chili, carbendazim and chlorpyrifos were also decreased, to a major extent, by 80% and 65% after PAW treatment for 30 min and 60 min, respectively. E. coli popula…
Capsaicin Intake and Oral Carcinogenesis: a Systematic Review
2021
Background Chili is the most heavily and frequently consumed spice, either as a flavouring or colouring agent, and it is also a major source of pro-vitamin A, vitamin E and C. The main capsinoidcapsaicinoid found in chili peppers is capsaicin. It has been demonstrated that capsaicin acts as a cancer-suppressing agent through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, by blocking several signal transduction pathways. Oral squamous cell carcinoma is one of the most prevalent cancer worldwide. It is noteworthy that in countries where populations of diverse ethnic groups co-exist, differences have been observed in terms of incidence of oral cancer. The variances in their diet could explain,…

The political economy of public support of higher education : Chile, France and Malaysia

An adult life cycle perspective on public subsidies to higher education in three countries
1986
Studies of the incidence of public susidies to higher education have commonly disregarded adjustements to an appropriate age range in the parental reference populations. Even where the need for such adjustements is noted, implications have rarely if ever been systematically analyzed. Moreover, no attention whatsoever seems to have been paid to implications for adult life-cycle experiences let alone secular changes in experiences over successive cohorts. The present paper seeks to fill part of these gaps, drawing on relevant parts of our research on "the political economy of government support of higher education : studies in Chile, France and Malaysia".
Les rapports entre le redoublement et la ségrégation socio-scolaire et leurs impacts sur la couverture des programmes scolaires des classes et sur le…
2011
La présente étude s'intéresse aux élèves redoublants dans le système éducatif chilien selon deux perspectives distinctes. D'abord, nous nous intéressons au regroupement des élèves redoublants au sein du système et comment celui-ci peut créer des publics typés ayant des conséquences sur le travail scolaire des classes. Ensuite, nous analysons les dimensions subjectives associées au vécu scolaire et différenciées selon la condition de redoublement des élèves. Les différences par genre, par niveau socioéconomique et par type d'école sont aussi analysées et discutées, à partir des analyses quantitatives sur une base des données chilienne comportant près de 230.000 élèves et plus de 7.000 classe…
Specificità femminili e maschili. Opinioni e aspettative di insegnanti di scuola secondaria di primo e secondo grado
2017
Le recenti ricerche psicologiche, pedagogiche e didattiche hanno accertato che gli alunni e le alunne apprendono e si comportano a scuola in modo diverso e che la probabilità di successo nello studio aumenta, per entrambi i sessi, quando gli insegnanti, nella loro attività didattica, tengono presenti le peculiarità maschili e femminili. È avvertita pertanto l’esigenza di studiare e diffondere le migliori esperienze didattiche sul modo pedagogicamente più valido di insegnare alle donne e agli uomini. In questa ricerca abbiamo voluto conoscere le opinioni di 232 docenti dell’ultimo anno di scuola secondaria di primo grado e dei primi due anni di scuola secondaria di secondo grado di tutte le …
Les privatisations de l'éducation
2019
International audience; Les processus de privatisation « en » éducation et « de » l'éducation concernent désormais la plupart des pays du monde. Dans un contexte de mondialisation et d'internationalisation accrues des systèmes éducatifs, la mise en oeuvre, ces dernières décennies, de mesures spécifiques de privatisation, le développement d'un secteur marchand de l'éducation, mais aussi des évolutions sociétales de fond concernant les notions d'individualisme et d'individu interrogent d'une nouvelle manière les enjeux liés aux privatisations.La promotion des intérêts privés est-elle compatible avec un processus d'éducation ? Induit-elle irrémédiablement, par exemple, une conception utilitari…
