Bioinspired Design for Lightweighting and Vibration Behavior Optimization in Large-Scale Aeronautical Tooling: A Comparative Study
(MDPI, 2023-12-04)A comparative study is presented, focusing on three different bioinspired design methodologies applied to a large-scale aeronautical tooling use case. The study aims to optimize the structure in terms of the first vibration ... -
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 ... -
Biological Evaluation of Both Enantiomers of Fluoro-Thalidomide Using Human Myeloma Cell Line H929 and Others
(Public Library Science, 2017-08-01)Over the last few years, thalidomide has become one of the most important anti-tumour drugs for the treatment of relapsed-refractory multiple myeloma. However, besides its undesirable teratogenic side effect, its configurational ... -
Biological Functions of Exopolysaccharides from Lactic Acid Bacteria and Their Potential Benefits for Humans and Farmed Animals
(MDPI, 2022-04-28)Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) synthesize exopolysaccharides (EPS), which are structurally diverse biopolymers with a broad range of technological properties and bioactivities. There is scientific evidence that these polymers ... -
Biological Impact of γ-Fe2O3 Magnetic Nanoparticles Obtained by Laser Target Evaporation: Focus on Magnetic Biosensor Applications
(MDPI, 2022-08-11)The biological activity of γ-Fe2O3 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), obtained by the laser target evaporation technique, was studied, with a focus on their possible use in biosensor applications. The biological effect of the ... -
Biological nitrification inhibitor-trait enhances nitrogen uptake by suppressing nitrifier activity and improves ammonium assimilation in two elite wheat varieties
(Frontiers Media, 2022-11)Synthetic nitrification inhibitors (SNI) and biological nitrification inhibitors (BNI) are promising tools to limit nitrogen (N) pollution derived from agriculture. Modern wheat cultivars lack sufficient capacity to exude ... -
Biological Responses and Toxicopathic Effects Elicited in Solea Senegalensis Juveniles by Waterborne Exposure to Benzo[a]pyrene
(Elsevier, 2021-05-11)Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are priority contaminants in coastal and estuarine ecosystems under anthropogenic pressure. Although PAHs tend to accumulate in the sediment, toxicity for benthic flat fish such ... -
Biological Sex Differences in Depression: A Systematic Review
(Sage, 2018-07)Depression is the leading cause of disability worldwide, and its prevalence is 2 times higher in women than in men. There is, however, a lack of data on sex-specific pathophysiology of this disorder. The purpose of this ... -
Biologically-inspired data decorrelation for hyper-spectral imaging
(Springer, 2011)Hyper-spectral data allows the construction of more robust statistical models to sample the material properties than the standard tri-chromatic color representation. However, because of the large dimensionality and complexity ... -
La biología de los primeros estoicos
(Universidad del País Vasco, Servicio Editorial / Euskal Herriko Univertsitatea, Argitalpen Zerbitzua, 1999)[ES] La biología de los primitivos estoicos, los anteriores a Panecio, es un campo inexplorado por la investigación. Sin embargo, en ella se cruzan la filosofía de la naturaleza, la antropología y la ética estoicas. Además ... -
La biología sintética como desafío para comprender la autonomía de lo vivo
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, 2016)We here offer an alternative view of synthetic biology, quite distant from the engineering approaches that currently set the main research agenda of the field. Our analysis centres on those lines of work, both theoretical ... -
Biomarker responses in mussels (Mytilus trossulus) from the Baltic Sea exposed to water-accommodated fraction of crude oil and a dispersant at different salinities
(Elsevier, 2023-07)Oil spills pose significant environmental risks, particularly in cold seas. In the Baltic Sea, the low salinity (from 0 to 2 up to 18) affects the behaviour of the spilled oil as well as the efficiency and ecological impacts ... -
Biomarkers for the diagnosis of invasive candidiasis in immunocompetent and immunocompromised patients
(Elsevier, 2021-07-24)Blood culture methods show low sensitivity, so reliable non-culture diagnostic tests are needed to help clinicians with the introduction, de-escalation, and discontinuation of antifungal therapy in patients with suspected ... -
Biomass Pyrolysis Solids as Reducing Agents: Comparison with Commercial Reducing Agents
(MDPI, 2016-01)Biomass is one of the most suitable options to be used as renewable energy source due to its extensive availability and its contribution to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass under ... -
Biomimesis y los Servicios de los Ecosistemas
(Universidad Nacional Abierta y a Distancia, 2016-12)La actividad humana está alterando los procesos en la Tierra, de tal modo que está en peligro la supervivencia humana. Por ello, es necesario desarrollar una gobernanza multifuncional para frenar la degradación medioambiental ... -
Biomimetic Cloning of Quantum Observables
(Nature Publishing Group, 2014-05-09)We propose a bio-inspired sequential quantum protocol for the cloning and preservation of the statistics associated to quantum observables of a given system. It combines the cloning of a set of commuting observables, ... -
Biomimetic Tweezers for N-Glycans: Selective Recognition of the Core GlcNAc(2) Disaccharide of the Sialylglycopeptide SGP
(Wiley, 2023-03)In recent years, glycomics have shown how pervasive the role of carbohydrates in biological systems is and how chemical tools are essential to investigate glycan function and modulate carbohydrate-mediated processes. ... -
