Realization of polyaspartamide-based nanoparticles and in vivo lung biodistribution evaluation of a loaded gucocorticoid after aerosolization in mice
2016
Abstract In this study, novel polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) were developed and their potential as carriers for beclomethasone dipropionate (BDP) into the lung after aerosolization was demonstrated by in vivo studies in mice. In particular, these NPs were obtained starting from two polyaspartamide-based copolymers which were synthesized by chemical reaction of α,β-poly(N-2-hydroxyethyl)- dl -aspartamide (PHEA) and its pegylated derivative (PHEA-PEG2000) with poly(lactic acid) (PLA). To obtain nanosized particles, the high pressure homogenization (HPH)—solvent evaporation method was followed by using an organic phase containing both PHEA-PLA and PHEA-PEG2000-PLA (at a weight ratio equal to 1:…
Étude et modélisation des impacts des pratiques agricoles sur la dynamique de la distribution des communautés microbiennes des sols à l’échelle du pa…
2021
National audience; Les micro-organismes telluriques, de par leur abondance et leur richesse, jouent un rôle centraldans le fonctionnement des écosystèmes et sont des bioindicateurs intéressants pour évaluerl’impact des pratiques agricoles sur la qualité des sols. L’enjeu est de favoriser leur utilisationpour accompagner l’innovation dans le monde agricole. Cette thèse a pour objectif de permettreune meilleure compréhension des dynamiques spatiales et temporelles des communautésmicrobiennes du sol à l’échelle du paysage. Pour cela, nous proposons de modéliser cesdynamiques et de partager les connaissances aux acteurs du monde agricole via un OAD (outild’aide à la décision). Le paysage de Fén…
The potential of γ-ray spectroscopy for soil proximal survey in clayey soils Le potentiel de la spectroscopie a rayons-γ lors de l’echantillonnage pe…
2013
La spettroscopia di raggi-γ misura la distribuzione e l’intensità della radiazione gamma emessa naturalmente dai suoli o dalle rocce. I radionuclidi più importanti nel suolo come fonte di raggi gamma sono: 40K, 232Th, 238U ed 137Cs, quest’ultimo di origine artificiale, principalmente legato all’esplosione di Chernobyl o ad inquinamenti radioattivi. La distribuzione e la quantità di questi radionuclidi è strettamente dipendente dalla mineralogia del parent material e dalla capacità di scambio cationico del suolo. Scopo di questo lavoro è quello di mostrare le potenzialità di un rilevamento prossimale con spettroscopia di raggi-γ in campi sperimentali con suoli argillosi della Sicilia occiden…
Evolution des paysages Sahélines au cours des six dernières décennies dans la région de Niamey : de la disparition de la brousse tigrée à l'encroutem…
2010
In the Sahel, the rapid increase of the population during the last decades and the climate variation lead to an important environmental degradation. This work aims to measure the impacts of the human pressure on ecosystem during the six last decades. A diachronic cartography of a 100 km² area close to Niamey was done with aerial photographs (1950 and 1975) and GPS measurements (2009). Results showed that the tiger bush vegetation was completely cleared between 1950 and 2009 while the fallow decreases from 7 % to 1 %. In the sandy valley, the increase of cultivated fields from 20,7 % (1950) to 69,4 % (1975) favoured wind and water erosions which allowed surface soil crusting. Between 1975 an…
CRITICAL REVIEW OF THE ARTICLE “DE BIBRACTE À AUGUSTODUNUM : OBSERVATIONS ARCHÉOASTRONOMIQUES”
2022
Were the towns of Bibracte and Augustodunum astronomically oriented? We study in this publication an article published in the Revue Archéologique de l'Est which puts forward the hypothesis that the Gallic town of Bibracte respects, in its main buildings, orientations corresponding to sunrise on the Romanized dates of the Celtic festivals and that the Roman city of Augustodunum is rather oriented, in its urban fabric, on sunrises at the solstice, like other Roman cities. Our study tends to invalidate these hypotheses, by re-examining the reliability of the measurements taken and the chronology of the constructions in relation to the establishment of the Julian calendar.
The effects of antimicrobial sprays and mouthrinses on supragingival plaque regrowth: a comparative study.
2006
BACKGROUND: Due to the side effects of chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX) mouthrinsing, a spray has been proposed as an alternative method of CHX delivery to the oral cavity. The aim of this study was to investigate the plaque inhibitory effects of CHX, cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), and triclosan (TRN) delivered by sprays and mouthrinses. METHODS: The study was an observer-masked, randomized cross-over design balanced for carryover effects, involving 15 healthy volunteers in a 4-day plaque regrowth model. Products being tested (0.2% CHX, 0.12% CHX, 0.05% CPC, and 0.03% TRN) were used both as sprays and mouthrinses. A saline solution served as a negative control. On day 1, subjects received p…
Collectes des données de pratiques agricoles des sites du Réseau de Mesures de la Qualité des Sols
2022
The INRAE InfoSol unit, mandated by the Gis Sol, coordinates the French Soil Monitoring Network (RMQS) set up to assess the quality and evolution of soils in France. A local trained team collects management data through a survey with farmers or operators for each site and campaign. The initial objective of collecting all soil-related management data, answering multidisciplinary uses, has faced collection difficulties and lengthy interviews. Hence, survey forms were revised before the second campaign, started in 2016. The new forms were tested and improved for two years, and the data collection strategy was tuned. In order to analyze the first responses and to suggest improvements, the study…
Données nouvelles pour l'histoire de la construction des terroirs viticoles de Bourgogne, cinquante ans après l'oeuvre de Roger Dion
2010
L'œuvre de Roger Dion sur les développements de la viticulture en France s'appuie beaucoup et souvent sur l'exemple de l'histoire viticole bourguignonne qui constitue comme un modèle dans sa démonstration. Cette contribution fait le point sur l'actualité rétrospective de cet exemple et son héritage: nouvelles données archéologiques, mise en culture des coteaux, aménagements des parcelles et transformation des sols par le " vouloir humain ".
