Dielectric and mechanical assessment of cellulosic insulation during transformer manufacturing

2021

Due to the impact of cellulose of paper insulation on transformer life, it is imperatire to remove moisture from the oil and the solid insulation. Several techniques have been implemented during manufacturing of power transformers to reduce water content in transformers. These drying processes can involve different costs and time, and they can damage the insulation paper. In this work, a drying process has been implemented in the laboratory trying to simulate the most aggressive conditions that can be suffered by the paper in transformer manufacturing in a real industry. Once the moisture content of papers was lower than 0.5%, the effect of the drying process on paper degradation was evalua…

Détection automatique des repères visuels associés à la dépression

2018

Depression is the most prevalent mood disorder worldwide having a significant impact on well-being and functionality, and important personal, family and societal effects. The early and accurate detection of signs related to depression could have many benefits for both clinicians and affected individuals. The present work aimed at developing and clinically testing a methodology able to detect visual signs of depression and support clinician decisions.Several analysis pipelines were implemented, focusing on motion representation algorithms, including Local Curvelet Binary Patterns-Three Orthogonal Planes (LCBP-TOP), Local Curvelet Binary Patterns- Pairwise Orthogonal Planes (LCBP-POP), Landma…

Diagnostic pathways and clinical significance of desquamative gingivitis:a review

2008

The term desquamative gingivitis (DG) refers to a clinical manifestation that can be caused by several disorders. Many of them are immunologically mediated; in addition to the oral cavity, they can affect extraoral mucocutaneous sites, e.g., larynx, conjunctiva, esophagus, nasal and genital mucosa, and the skin. The degree of oral, periodontal, and systemic involvement determines the overall morbidity and, sometimes, the mortality of these disorders. We comprehensively review disorders commonly associated with DG and highlight diagnostic pathways, guidelines for differential diagnosis, and oral, periodontal, and systemic implications. More rare conditions are reviewed as well. Mucous membra…

Spectrophotometric flow injection determination of formetanate and m-aminophenol in water after reaction with p-aminophenol

1992

Abstract An automated procedure has been developed for the determination of formetanate and its metabolite m -aminophenol (MAP) in water samples. MAP can be selectively determined in the presence of formetanate by direct on-line reaction with p -aminophenol and spectrophotometric measurement of the absorbance at 576 nm in the presence of KIO 4 , as oxidizing agent. The method has a limit of detection of 5 × 10 −7 M , it provides a recovery percentage from 95 to 104% and permits one to carry out 120 measurements/hr. The spectrophotometric determination of formetanate must be carried out after a previous hydrolysis to MAP. To determine formetanate in the presence of MAP, two steps are necessa…

Rapid microwave assisted hydrolysis of formetanate

1993

Abstract A fast microwave-assisted hydrolysis procedure has been developed for the derivatization of formetanate previously to the flow-injection spectrophotometric determination of m -aminophenol by reaction with p -aminophenol. Formetanate is quantitatively hydrolyzed with 0.1 M NaOH in 150 s using a closed polyetrafluoroethylene reactor with 115 ml internal volume and a radiation power of 390 W. The above procedure has been applied, as a previous step, for the flow-injection spectrophotometric determination of formetanate in spiked water samples and accurate and precise results have been found. The method permits to obtain a limit of detection of 0.025 mg 1 −1 of formetanate. The relativ…

Consideraciones en el diagnóstico de psoriasis oral: Presentación de un caso clínico

2004

Este artículo comenta las dificultades de hacer un diagnóstico definitivo de psoriasis oral basado en la evidencia clínica e histológica. Se presenta un joven varón negro con múltiples lesiones que muestran erosiones, fisuras y escaras amarillentas en el borde bermellón de ambos labios. También tenía áreas eritematosas-erosivas en la encía, una lengua fisurada que mostraba áreas grisáceas en su superficie ventral, lesiones blanquecinas y lesiones longitudinales en el paladar duro junto lesiones entrelazadas en el paladar blando. Las biopsias del labio inferior , la encía y el paladar blando mostraron hiperqueratosis, espongiosis, acantosis, y elongación de las crestas epiteliales. Además, s…

Congenital secretory diarrhoea caused by activating germline mutations in GUCY2C

2016

Objective Congenital sodium diarrhoea (CSD) refers to a form of secretory diarrhoea with intrauterine onset and high faecal losses of sodium without congenital malformations. The molecular basis for CSD remains unknown. We clinically characterised a cohort of infants with CSD and set out to identify disease-causing mutations by genome-wide genetic testing. Design We performed whole-exome sequencing and chromosomal microarray analyses in 4 unrelated patients, followed by confirmatory Sanger sequencing of the likely disease-causing mutations in patients and in their family members, followed by functional studies. Results We identified novel de novo missense mutations in GUCY2C, the gene encod…

El rol del modelo de las competencias en la reconfiguración meritocrática de las pautas de negociación salarial en empresas argentinas: continuidades…

2020

The development of new models of work organization and the complementary advance of flexible guidelines for the use of the labor force had as a correlate a profound change in techniques for the evaluation of workers. Thus, the typical model of Fordism, based on qualifications, was replaced by a different one based on competencies, whereby the strong relationship of the former was abandoned with the determination of the technical knowledge required for each job to move to a system which the priority is placed in the individual attitude. The consequent individualization of performance evaluations can lead to a possible loss of objectivity. In this article we develop a theoretical comparison b…

Comunicació 2.0 i gènere

2009

Internet ha capgirat les formes de comunicació i d’intercanvi d’informació entre les persones: les receptores en el procés comunicatiu són ara també emissores. La conjunció d’aquesta particularitat amb l’aparició i ús d’algunes eines de comunicació (fàcils d’usar i bàsicament gratuïtes) permet parlar d’un fenomen social de gran abast: la comunicació 2.0. Aquest article analitza algunes de les característiques d’aquesta classe d’interacció i centra l’interés de forma particular en certes iniciatives que tenen com a epicentre les qüestions de gènere. La comunicació 2.0 permet la participació activa i directa en el procés, obert i col·laboratiu, de construcció de la identitat pròpia. Així mate…
