Los tratados del Arte del vestido en la España Moderna

2001

Originated by different proffesions, the need for organization the existing knowledge from the Middle Age produce during the Renaissance the publication of methods of work. Not only were it publicated books about science and art, but it were publicated also about tailoring. The purpouse that it were designed the latter ones was to cut as economically as possible from expensive materials and to stablish standars for styles. The album of un anonymous Milan tailor is the only work wich can be considere to precede Juan de Alcega's <i>Geometría, Practica y Traça</i>. Based on Alcega's book, others were published during the Baroque with the same title <i>Geometría y traças</i…

Tellurite-dependent blackening of bacteria emerges from the dark ages

2019

Environmental contextAlthough tellurium is a relatively rare element in the earth’s crust, its concentration in some niches can be naturally high owing to unique geology. Tellurium, as the oxyanion, is toxic to prokaryotes, and although prokaryotes have evolved resistance to tellurium, no universal mechanism exists. We review the interaction of tellurite with prokaryotes with a focus on those unique strains that thrive in environments naturally rich in tellurium. AbstractThe timeline of tellurite prokaryotic biology and biochemistry is now over 50 years long. Its start was in the clinical microbiology arena up to the 1970s. The 1980s saw the cloning of tellurite resistance determinants whil…

Electrosynthesis and electrochemistry

2015

Since the pioneering work of Kolbe, electrochemistry and electrosynthetic methods have been a part of the repertoire of the organic synthesis toolbox [1–2]. In general, only electrons are employed as reagents or the reagents are electrochemically regenerated. Consequently, waste can be avoided, and limited resources can be used in a careful and economic manner. Because alternative reaction pathways are employed by electrosynthetic methods, scarce and toxic elements can be replaced or are not required at all [3]. Moreover, in the foreseeable future regenerative sources of electricity, for example, photovoltaics and wind power, will provide a surplus of electricity as the current unsteady sup…

Microstructured Reactors for Polymer Synthesis: A Renaissance of Continuous Flow Processes for Tailor-Made Macromolecules?

2008

Organic synthesis in microfluidic devices has attracted increasing interest in recent years. However, little efforts had been undertaken to exploit this novel technology for polymer chemistry until several recent studies demonstrated the interesting potential of microreactors for the synthesis and modification of polymers. In fact, anionic polymerizations in continuous capillary flow-tube systems were established already in 1962 in pioneering work by Szwarc. Subsequent work focused on detailed kinetic analyses in such reactors. The present article explores different current strategies developed by several research groups to realize bulk and solution polymerizations using continuous flow mic…

The Renaissance of the 68Ge/68Ga Radionuclide Generator Initiates New Developments in 68Ga Radiopharmaceutical Chemistry

2010

⁶⁸Ge/⁶⁸Ga radionuclide generators have been investigated for almost fifty years now, since the cyclotron-independent availability of positron emitting ⁶⁸Ga via the ⁶⁸Ge/⁶⁸Ga system had always attracted researches working in basic nuclear chemistry as well as radiopharmaceutical chemistry. However, it took decades and generations of research (and researchers) to finally approach a reliable level of ⁶⁸Ge/⁶⁸Ga generator designs, adequate to the modern requirements of radiometal labeling chemistry. ⁶⁸Ga radiopharmacy now is awaking from a sort of hibernation. The exciting perspective for the ⁶⁸Ge/⁶⁸Ga generator, now - more than ever, asks for systematic chemical, radiochemical, technological an…

Espiral. Cuadernos del profesorado

2016

Vicente Peydró fue una de las figuras artísticas más destacadas de la Valencia de finales del siglo XIX y principios del XX, en una etapa que se denomina Renaixença. Su trabajo como compositor, periodista, poeta, actor y dibujante le convirtieron en una persona sumamente conocida, querida y respetada por todos los valencianos. En el presente trabajo se realiza una propuesta didáctica desde la metodología de Aprendizaje por Proyectos (PBL) en el alumnado de secundaria y bachillerato. La figura de Peydró es idónea para enseñar a nuestros alumnos de secundaria los valores que deben regir en el arte, ya que este autor demostró poseer unos inquebrantables principios morales. Asimismo, su eclécti…

Archaeometric Characterisation of Decorated Pottery from the Archaeological Site of Villa dei Quintili (Rome, Italy): Preliminary Study

2019

This work focused on the study of decorated pottery dated back to the 16th century from the Roman archaeological site of Villa dei Quintili, a monumental complex located in the south-eastern part of Rome (Italy). A minero-petrographic and geochemical study was undertaken to analyse five archaeological samples in order to define textural features and raw materials used for their production, along with the chemical and physical composition of the superficial decorative glazed coatings. For this purpose, different analytical methods were used, such as polarising optical microscope (POM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), micro-Raman spectroscopy, X-Ray fluorescence (XRF), and electron microprobe analys…
