Natural Variation In Recovery From A Short Period Of Anoxia Due To A cGMP-Dependent Protein Kinase in Drosophila melanogaster
(2016-04-28)
[EN] Protein Kinase G (PKG) or cGMP-dependent protein kinases (PKG) have been shown to play an important role in resistance to abiotic stressors such as high temperatures or oxygen deprivation in Drosophila melanogaster. ...
Bessel functions and equations of mathematical physics
(2016-04-27)
The aim of this dissertation is to introduce Bessel functions to the reader, as well as studying some of their properties. Moreover, the final goal of this document is to present the most well- known applications of Bessel ...
Detection of particles with a cloud chamber
(2016-04-27)
Cloud chambers were essential devices in early nuclear and particle physics research. Superseded by more modern detectors in actual research, they still remain very interesting pedagogical apparatus.
This thesis attempts ...

(2017-01-10)
[EN] Over the past decades, there has been a growing concern regarding the presence of marine mammals in the Bay of Biscay. According to law, all endangered or vulnerable species and their habitats should be analyzed. In ...
Mathematical background of the chaotic dynamics in the Lorenz system
(2017-01-10)
The dissertation is devoted to understand the foundations and basic results on dynamical systems towards an ultimate application of these in the the Lorenz system.
Reactivity of trivalent metals towards the Keggin-type [SbW9O33]9- trilacunary polyoxoanion
(2017-01-10)
Systematic studies on the reactivity of trivalent metals (Sc, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Al, Ga) towards the Keggin-type [SbW9O33]9- trilacunary anion have been carried out. The usual methods for the chemical and structural ...
The influence of pro-environmental agricultural practices on carbon content and the activity of related enzymes (beta-glucosidase, cellulase and invertase) in soil after four years of winter wheat monoculture
(2017-01-10)
Some pro-environmental agricultural practices (various tillage practices, straw management, bio-fertilizer application) are tested after five years of winter wheat monoculture in order to assess their influence on soil ...
FTIR characterization of stress response to acetic acid in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells. Role of MCR1 to counteract the oxidative stress
(2017-01-10)
Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells are widely employed as microbial factories for the production of bioethanol through the alcoholic fermentation. One of the main bottlenecks of the process is the formation of toxic metabolites, ...
