Effect of the crystallization conditions on the exclusion/inclusion balance in biodegradable poly(butylene succinate-ran-butylene adipate) copolymers
(ACS, 2020-07-14)
Biomedical applications of polymers require precise control of the solid-state structure, which is of particular interest for biodegradable copolymers. In this work, we evaluated the influence of crystallization conditions ...
The potential land requirements and related land use change emissions of solar energy
(Nature, 2021-02-03)
Although the transition to renewable energies will intensify the global competition for land, the potential impacts driven by solar energy remain unexplored. In this work, the potential solar land requirements and related ...
Evaluation of a cross-border electricity interconnection: The case of Spain-France
(Elsevier, 2021-10-15)
[EN]This paper focuses on the economics of a cross-border transmission interconnector. The domestic spot electricity price is modelled as a stochastic process with mean reversion and jumps; it also includes a deterministic ...
Kinetics of NH3 Desorption and Diffusion on Pt: Implications for the Ostwald Process.
(American Chemical Society, 2021-10-21)
We report accurate time-resolved measurements of NH3 desorption from Pt(111) and Pt(332) and use these results to determine elementary rate constants for desorption from steps, from (111) terrace sites and for diffusion ...
Ancient saltern metagenomics: tracking changes in microbes and their viruses from the underground to the surface
(Wiley, 2021-07)
Microbial communities in hypersaline underground waters derive from ancient organisms trapped within the evaporitic salt crystals and are part of the poorly known subterranean biosphere. Here, we characterized the viral ...
2D-Coordination polymers based on 1H-indazole-4-carboxylic acid and transition metal ions: magnetic, luminescence and biological properties
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-08-14)
We report the formation of five novel multifunctional coordination polymers based on 1H-indazole-4-carboxylic acid (HL). To the best of our knowledge, these complexes are the first examples of coordination compounds ...
Biological and synthetic approaches to inhibiting nitrification in non‑tilled Mediterranean soils
(Springer, 2021-10-13)
[EN] Background: The increasing demand for food production has led to a tenfold increase in nitrogen (N) fertilizer use since the Green Revolution. Nowadays, agricultural soils have been turned into high-nitrifying ...
Qualitative analysis of a discrete-time phytoplankton–zooplankton model with Holling type-II response and toxicity
(Springer, 2021-10-09)
[EN]The interaction among phytoplankton and zooplankton is one of the most important
processes in ecology. Discrete-time mathematical models are commonly used for
describing the dynamical properties of phytoplankton and ...
Epigenetic landscape in blood leukocytes following ketosis and weight loss induced by a very low calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) in patients with obesity
(Elsevier, 2021)
Background: The molecular mechanisms underlying the potential health benefits of a ketogenic diet are unknown and could be mediated by epigenetic mechanisms. Objective: To identify the changes in the obesity-related methylome ...
A Glimpse of the Sports Nutrition Awareness in Spanish Basketball Players
(MDPI, 2021-12-22)
Basketball is a team sport, with many fans and practitioners worldwide from all ages and levels. In all cases, players accumulate high levels of fatigue, and there is also limited time to recover between games or practices. ...
