I derivati over the counter tra diritto dei privati e la teoria ecologica del contratto. Premesse per uno studio
2022
Lo scritto intende porre alcune premesse per uno studio critico dei derivati over the counter. Condotta in riferimento ai dibattiti italiani e nordamericani, l’analisi di questi strumenti finanziari e del loro regime giuridico consente di sottolineare alcune implicazioni che la loro diffusione ha avuto sulla teoria generale del contratto. In questo senso, i derivati over the counter sono una manifestazione contemporanea di “diritto dei privati”. Tuttavia è illusorio pretendere un loro perfetto isolamento giuridico ed economico. Valorizzando una concezione ecologica del contratto, e facendo attenzione al rischio sistemico, occorre adottare un approccio rimediale capace di mettere in discussi…
I credit derivatives nell’economia dei sistemi finanziari tra innovazione e criticità
2011
Il lavoro è volto a comprendere il ruolo degli strumenti credit derivatives nell’economia dei sistemi finanziari. I credit derivatives rappresentano una significativa forma di innovazione finanziaria che incide direttamente sull’attività degli intermediari finanziari e, in particolare, bancari. Il ricorso al mercato dei credit derivatives rende possibile il trasferimento integrale o parziale dei rischi di credito senza il contestuale trasferimento delle singole esposizioni creditizie. Ciò dischiude una varietà di scelte aziendali di de-integrazione della catena del valore dell’intermediazione creditizia e di diversificazione del portafoglio crediti che, tuttavia, non sempre conducono ad una…
Efficacy and safety of photodynamic therapy with RLP068 for diabetic foot ulcers: a review of the literature and clinical experience
2020
This article is the second part of a literature review concerning diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) and the use of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (PDT). PDT involves the topical application of a photosensitiser into the tissue, followed by illumination that induces the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). PDT provides bacterial inactivation and promotes wound healing, and it can be used to manage the infection and microbial colonisation of DFUs. It has pivotal advantages in comparison with chemotherapeutics, such as no potential to induce resistance, and a wide spectrum of activity. Tetracationic Zn(II) phthalocyanine derivatives have been developed for PDT. Among these, we would like …
Effect of Heat on the Adsorption Properties of Silica Gel
2012
Published version of an article in the journal: International Journal of Engineering and Technology. Also available from the publisher at: http://www.ijetch.org/papers/416-T886.pdf Open access. Adsorption properties of silica gel have been attributed to the surface hydroxyl groups of silica gel. Some hydroxyl groups are free standing and called free silanol groups. Some are hydrogen bonded to neighbouring silanol groups. Christy has shown that a high silanol number and a balanced concentration proportionality between these two different types of hydroxyl groups is necessary for effective adsorption of water molecules. Thermal treatment of silica gel samples alters the proportions of these g…
Derivation in Finnish upper secondary school English L2 textbooks
2016
Sananmuodostus on keskeinen taito kielten oppijalle; se auttaa paitsi sanavaraston laajentamisessa, myös edistää oppijan lukutaitoa vieraskielistä tekstiä lukiessa. Tästä syystä on tärkeää tarkastella, kuinka sananmuodostusta opetetaan viimeistään toisen asteen opetuksessa, esimerkiksi lukiossa. Tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastelukeinoksi valikoitui lukiotason oppikirjojen tutkiminen, koska erityisesti kielten opetuksessa oppikirjoilla on todella suuri rooli opetuksen sisältöjä ja muotoa koskevia valintoja tehtäessä. Tavoitteena oli selvittää, kuinka lukiotason oppikirjoissa opetetaan sananmuodostamisen tuottoisinta osa-aluetta, sananjohtamista, ja erityisesti millaisia sitä käsitteleviä harjoit…
Discovery of a new class of sortase a transpeptidase inhibitors to tackle gram-positive pathogens: 2-(2-phenylhydrazinylidene)alkanoic acids and rela…
2016
A FRET-based random screening assay was used to generate hit compounds as sortase A inhibitors that allowed us to identify ethyl 3-oxo-2-(2-phenylhydrazinylidene)butanoate as an example of a new class of sortase A inhibitors. Other analogues were generated by changing the ethoxycarbonyl function for a carboxy, cyano or amide group, or introducing substituents in the phenyl ring of the ester and acid derivatives. The most active derivative found was 3-oxo-2-(2-(3,4dichlorophenyl)hydrazinylidene)butanoic acid (2b), showing an IC50 value of 50 µM. For a preliminary assessment of their antivirulence properties the new derivatives were tested for their antibiofilm activity. The most active compo…
Determination of glyphosate and its metabolite aminomethylphosphonic acid in fruit juices using supported-liquid membrane preconcentration method wit…
2005
Abstract The application of supported-liquid membrane (SLM) technique for effective extraction of N -(phosphonomethyl)glycine (glyphosate) and its primary metabolite aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) from juices (orange, grapefruit, apple and blackcurrant) in combination with HPLC-UV detection after derivatization with p -toluenesulphonyl chloride (TsCl) is presented. The influence of various parameters such as the composition of acceptor phase, flow-rate, concentration of analytes, on the performance of extraction procedure, was studied. It was shown that by appropriate manipulation of SLM parameters the level of detection could be significantly improved. The influence of SLM conditions on…
Errors Generated by Uncertain Data
2014
In this chapter, we study effects caused by incompletely known data. In practice, the data are never known exactly, therefore the results generated by a mathematical model also have a limited accuracy. Then, the whole subject of error analysis should be treated in a different manner, and accuracy of numerical solutions should be considered within a framework of a more complicated scheme, which includes such notions as maximal and minimal distances to the solution set and its radius.
Water-Soluble Cuprizone Derivative: Synthesis, Characterization, and in Vitro Studies
2019
The cuprizone mouse model is one of the most accepted model systems for the investigation of oligodendrocyte degeneration, a process critically involved in the pathogenesis of diseases such as multiple sclerosis or schizophrenia. In order to substitute the in vivo experiments by in vitro approaches, the amine derivative BiMPi is introduced as a water-soluble alternative to cuprizone. Regarding superoxide dismutase activity, toxicity for oligodendrocytes, and disturbance of mitochondrial membrane potential, BiMPi shows similar in vitro effects as is observed in vivo for cuprizone. peerReviewed
Iterative Methods for Pricing American Options under the Bates Model
2013
We consider the numerical pricing of American options under the Bates model which adds log-normally distributed jumps for the asset value to the Heston stochastic volatility model. A linear complementarity problem (LCP) is formulated where partial derivatives are discretized using finite differences and the integral resulting from the jumps is evaluated using simple quadrature. A rapidly converging fixed point iteration is described for the LCP, where each iterate requires the solution of an LCP. These are easily solved using a projected algebraic multigrid (PAMG) method. The numerical experiments demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach. Furthermore, they show that the PAMG meth…
