Fiber Bragg Gratings, IT Techniques and Strain Gauge Validation for Strain Calculation on Aged Metal Specimens
(MDPI, 2011-01)
This paper studies the feasibility of calculating strains in aged F114 steel specimens with Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors and infrared thermography (IT) techniques. Two specimens have been conditioned under extreme ...
Language distance and non-native syntactic processing: Evidence from event-related potentials
(Cambridge University Press, 2011)
[EN] In this study, we explore native and non-native syntactic processing, paying special attention to the language distance factor.
To this end, we compared how native speakers of Basque and highly proficient non-native ...

La propuesta de formación que hemos ensayado incorpora junto al aprendizaje convencional- estrategias psicológicas para que el individuo pueda afrontar mejor una situación típicamente estresante: hablar en público y mantener ...
Elucidation of Functional Markers from Aspergillus nidulans Developmental Regulator FlbB and Their Phylogenetic Distribution
(Public Library of Science, 2011-03-10)
Aspergillus nidulans is a filamentous fungus widely used as a model for biotechnological and clinical research. It is also used as a platform for the study of basic eukaryotic developmental processes. Previous studies ...
Evaluation of a Programme for Computer-Assisted Learning
(Universidad del País Vasco / Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea, 2011)
[En] This article lies within the framework of the implementation and use of ICT as a medium of learning in Primary Education. A learning programme was created, implemented and evaluated through using the computer known ...
A short in-frame deletion in NTRK1 tyrosine kinase domain caused by a novel splice site mutation in a patient with congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis
(BioMed Central, 2011-06-27)
Background: Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (CIPA) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disease characterized by the lack of reaction to noxious stimuli and anhidrosis. It is caused by mutations in the ...
Changes in white adipose tissue metabolism induced by resveratrol in rats
(BioMed Central, 2011-05)
Background: A remarkable range of biological functions have been ascribed to resveratrol. Recently, this polyphenol has been shown to have body fat lowering effects. The aim of the present study was to assess some of the ...
Adenylate Cyclase Toxin Promotes Internalisation of Integrins and Raft Components and Decreases Macrophage Adhesion Capacity
(Public Library of Science, 2011-02-23)
Bordetella pertussis, the bacterium that causes whooping cough, secretes an adenylate cyclase toxin (ACT) that must be post-translationally palmitoylated in the bacterium cytosol to be active. The toxin targets phagocytes ...
Activation of violaxanthin cycle in darkness is a common response to different abiotic stresses : a case study in Pelvetia canaliculata
(BioMed Central, 2011-12-26)
Background: In the violaxanthin (V) cycle, V is de-epoxidized to zeaxanthin (Z) when strong light or light combined with other stressors lead to an overexcitation of photosystems. However, plants can also suffer stress in ...
Accuracy in Copy Number Calling by qPCR and PRT : A Matter of DNA
(Public Library of Science, 2011-12-13)
The possible implication of copy number variation (CNV) in the genetic susceptibility to human disease needs to be assessed using robust methods that can be applied at a population scale. In this report, we analyze the ...
