Can Individual Movement Characteristics Across Different Throwing Disciplines Be Identified in High-Performance Decathletes?

2020

Although the individuality of whole-body movements has been suspected for years, the scientific proof and systematic investigation that individuals possess unique movement patterns did not manifest until the introduction of the criteria of uniqueness and persistence from the field of forensic science. Applying the criteria of uniqueness and persistence to the individuality of motor learning processes requires complex strategies due to the problem of persistence in the learning processes. One approach is to examine the learning process of different movements. For this purpose, it is necessary to differentiate between two components of movement patterns: the individual-specific component and …

A Short Review of Simple Analytical Methods for the Evaluation of PAHs and PAEs as Indoor Pollutants in House Dust Samples

2022

Studies on indoor air quality are indispensable when considering that people spend approximately 85% of their time in confined environments. This short review mostly takes into consideration research that uses passive samplers to evaluate the quality of indoor environments (houses, school, cars, etc.). This short review summarizes most analytical methods to detect and quantify PAHs and PAEs in house dust used as a passive sampler. The objective of house dust analysis is to identify the presence, amount and distribution of specific hazardous substances in confined spaces and, if possible, to identify their sources. Household dust and the compounds present in it can enter the human body by in…

Novel Porous Carbon Material for the Detection of Traces of Volatile Organic Compounds in Indoor Air

2021

International audience; A highly sensitive and selective silicon-based microanalytical prototype was used to identify a few ppb of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in indoor air. Herein, a new nonactivated tannin-derived carbon synthesized by an environmentally friendly method, DM2C, a MIL-101(Cr) MOF, and a DaY zeolite were selected for the preconcentration of BTEX compounds (i.e., benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes). Integrating a small amount of these nanoporous solids inside a miniaturized preconcentration unit led to excellent preconcentration performance. By taking advantage of the high adsorption−desorption capacities of the DM2C adsorbent, concentrations as low as 23.5, 30…

Quality and Yield of Lettuce in an Open-Air Rooftop Hydroponic System

2021

In this study, the yield and growth performance of lettuce in an open-air rooftop hydroponic system were investigated. Lettuce was grown in a closed recirculating nutrient film technique (NFT) unit using a standard nutrient solution (NS). Yield, fresh weight, and nutrient content in the leaf tissue of the harvested lettuce were measured. The results were compared with the results obtained in indoor hydroponic lettuce growth with artificial lightning. Despite strong winds during the growth period, 25% of the total lettuce heads weighed twice the marketable weight; however, 25% of the total lettuce heads were below the marketable weight. A more efficient nutrient uptake was indicated by the l…

Evaluation of radon levels in indoor gymnasia of palermo (Sicily) and Sassari (Sardinia)

2012

<p><strong>Background</strong>: In the last decades, there has been increased worldwide interest in the management of health risks from indoor radon.</p><p><strong>Methods</strong>: From 2006 to 2008, a survey on air radon levels was carried out in a total of 57 indoor gymnasia respectively located in the urban area of Palermo (Sicily) and Sassari (Sardinia).</p><p><strong>Results</strong>: The indoor radon levels were generally low with different geometric means in the two geographic areas (14.3 Bq/m3 in Palermo and 36 Bq/m3 in Sassari, respectively). Overall, in both groups increasing values of radon were found during the n…

Ideas, conceptos y dilemas para la implementación de una plataforma nacional de ODR en materia de consumo en Chile desde la perspectiva UE

2019

En la presente tesis hemos desarrollado una extensiva investigación monográfica en busca del concepto de ODR (online dispute resolution), el cual se encuentra en un constante desarrollo en el quehacer jurídico procesal comparado, sobre todo en materia del derecho de consumidor en el espacio de integración de la Unión Europea, con el impulso otorgado a la materia por la directiva 2011/2013 EU y el Reglamento 534/2013 EU,y la consecuente transposición de dichas normas a las tradiciones jurídicas de los Estados miembros. La búsqueda para generar un marco jurídico cada vez más proclive al consumidor dentro del mercado único europeo, ha impulsado el desarrollo de la legislación comunitaria, y la…
