Mixing brain cerebrosides with brain ceramides, cholesterol and phospholipids
(Nature Publishing, 2019-09-16)
The properties of bilayers composed of pure brain cerebroside (bCrb) or of binary mixtures of bCrb with brain ceramide, cholesterol, egg phosphatidylcholine or brain sphingomyelin have been studied using a combination of ...
Patches and Blebs: A Comparative Study of the Composition and Biophysical Properties of Two Plasma Membrane Preparations from CHO Cells
(MDPI, 2020-04-10)
This study was aimed at preparing and characterizing plasma membranes (PM) from Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells. Two methods of PM preparation were applied, one based on adhering cells to a poly-lysine-coated surface, ...
Multiple-Criteria Decision-Making Tool for Local Governments to Evaluate the Global and Local Sustainability of Transportation Systems in Urban Areas: Case Study
(ASCE, 2017-10-24)
Efficient management of urban transportation systems is a challenge for any local government that wishes to improve public wellbeing and comfort. With that end in mind, this paper proposes a tool for decision making and ...
Speed deficiency in shipbuilding contracts from the point of view of an efficient managing of the main engine
(University of Santander, 2010)
This article is related to the shipbuilding contracts and its purpose is to provide amethod of calculation of the economical damages sustained by a purchaser due tothe speed deficiency of the vessel delivered by the shipyard. ...
Some characterizations of the tensor product of complete lattices with applications to quantales
(Springer, 2018-09-17)
This paper examines tensor products of complete lattices in which one factor is com- pletely distributive. At least five characterizations of complete distributivity involving tensor products of complete lattices are given, ...
Combined Fluorescent-Chromogenic In Situ Hybridization for Identification and Laser Microdissection of Interphase Chromosomes
(Public Library of Science, 2013)
Chromosome territories constitute the most conspicuous feature of nuclear architecture, and they exhibit non-random distribution patterns in the interphase nucleus. We observed that in cell nuclei from humans with Down ...
Molecular recognition of a membrane-anchored HIV-1 pan-neutralizing epitope.
(Nature, 2022)
Antibodies against the carboxy-terminal section of the membrane-proximal external region (C-MPER) of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) are considered as nearly pan-neutralizing. Development of vaccines capable of ...
UV-curable acrylic end-capped amphoteric waterborne polyurethane coatings
(Elsevier, 2024-03)
Waterborne polyurethane dispersions (WPUs) are environmentally friendly coatings since they present low amount of volatile organic compound amounts (VOCs). In the majority of the WPUs the dispersions are balanced with ...
Stability of CuZnOAl2O3/HZSM-5 and CuFe2O4/HZSM-5 catalysts in dimethyl ether steam reforming operating in reaction-regeneration cycles
(Elsevier, 2014-05-21)
The study focuses on the regenerability of bifunctional catalysts prepared with different metallic functions (CuZnOAl2O3 and CuFe2O4 spinel) and HZSM-5 zeolite (SiO2/Al2O3 = 30) as the acid function. These catalysts have ...
Steam reforming of raw bio-oil in a fluidized bed reactor with prior separation of pyrolytic lignin
(ACS, 2013-11-11)
The effect operating conditions (temperature, steam/carbon molar ratio and space-velocity) have on the steam reforming of raw bio-oil has been studied in a two-step reaction unit. In the first step (operated at 500 ºC), a ...
