Palaeoceanographic and palaeoclimatic changes during the last 37,000 years detected in the SE Bay of Biscay based on benthic foraminifera
(Elsevier, 2020-04-28)
Benthic foraminifera assemblages from a sedimentary core (PP10-12; 701 mwd) from the SE Bay of Biscay allow us to trace palaeoceanographic and palaeoclimatic changes occurred in this region during mid MIS 3 (Marine Isotope ...
Ultrasound Tumor Size Assessment, Histology and Serum Enzyme Analysis in a Rat Model of Colorectal Liver Cancer
(Elsevier, 2020-06)
During tumor development, tissue necrosis appears as a natural phenomenon directly associated with an increase in tumor size. The aim of this study was to assess the use of ultrasound (US) for predicting natural tumor ...
Upgrading of heavy coker naphtha by means of catalytic cracking in refinery FCC unit
(Elsevier B.V., 2020-08)
The upgrading of heavy coker naphtha under conditions of the industrial fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) unit has been investigated, with the aim of obtaining light olefins and a gasoline fraction suitable to be used in the ...
Utility of two PCR-RFLP-based techniques for identification of Candida parapsilosis complex blood isolates
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020-05)
Background: Candida parapsilosis is the second or third most frequently isolated
Candida species related to nosocomial infections, even overtaking Candida albicans
in some hospitals. C. parapsilosis constitutes a complex ...
The effect of the carboxylation degree on cellulose nanofibers and waterborne polyurethane/cellulose nanofiber nanocomposites properties
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020-03)
[EN] There has been an exponential rise in the interest for waterborne polyurethanes (WBPU), due to the easy customizability of their properties and their ecofriendly nature. Moreover, their aqueous state facilitates the ...
The effect of the size of the board of directors on corporate social performance: A meta-analytic approach
(Wiley, 2020-04-15)
This paper examines the influence of the size of firms' board of directors on corporate social performance through a meta-analytic perspective. To that end, a sample of 80 articles that draw on evidence from more than ...
The T1D-associated lncRNA Lnc13 modulates human pancreatic β cell inflammation by allele-specific stabilization of STAT1 mRNA
(National Academy of Sciences, 2020-03-05)
The vast majority of type 1 diabetes (T1D) genetic association signals lie in non-coding regions of the human genome. Many have been predicted to affect the expression and secondary structure of long non-coding RNAs ...
The Six Isomers of the Cyclohexanol Dimer: A Delicate Test for Dispersion Models
(Wiley, 2020)
The cyclohexanol homodimer acts as a delicate test model of the role of dispersion forces in intermolecular association. Whereas phenol produces a single dimer, the suppression of π interactions and the larger conformational ...
Photoswitchable catalysis using organometallic complexes
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-04-30)
This review describes the state of the art in photoswitchable organometallic catalysis, underlining the importance of ligand design. The implementation of spatio-temporal control on known catalytic processes
has been ...
Performance of a superconducting breaker for the protection of HVDC grids
(Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) in partnership with Wiley, 2020-02-18)
Future multi-terminal high-voltage direct current (HVDC) grids will be essential for the electric power system expansion. However, there are still several technical, economic and legal obstacles that interfere with the ...
