Microwave-assisted synthesis of nanocatalysts in batch conditions
(Universidad de Córdoba, UCOPress, 2020)
The development of intensified processes for the preparation of novel catalytically active nanodimensional materials is a captivating challenge getting more attention day-by-day.1, 2 In fact, nanoparticle systems offer the ...
Distribution of Foxp3+ T cells in the liver and hepatic lymph nodes of goats and sheep experimentally infected with Fasciola hepatica
(Elsevier, 2016)
Foxp3 regulatory T cells (Tregs) are now considered to play a key role in modulation of immune responses during parasitic helminth infections. Immunomodulation is a key factor in Fasciola hepatica infection; however, the ...
The dark side of biomass valorization: A laboratory experiment to understand humins formation, catalysis and green chemistry
(ACS Publications, 2019)
This laboratory experiment introduces students to an important reaction in biomass valorization and allows them to gain a practical understanding of green chemistry. Acid-catalyzed dehydration reactions of fructose to ...
Sequential Exposure to Obesogenic Factors in Females Rats: From Physiological Changes to Lipid Metabolism in Liver and Mesenteric Adipose Tissue
(Nature Research, 2017)
During their lifetime, females are subjected to different nutritional and hormonal factors that could increase the risk of obesity and associated comorbidities. From early postnatal periods until the postmenopausal phase, ...
Scrap waste automotive converters as efficient catalysts for the continuous-flow hydrogenations of biomass derived chemicals
(RSC, 2020)
The catalytic activity of the scrap ceramic-core of automotive catalytic converters (SCATs) was investigated in the continuous-flow hydrogenation of different biomass derived chemicals. The waste SCATs powders were deeply ...
A Conserved Microbial Motif ‘Traps’ Protease Activation in Host Immunity
(Cell Press, 2019)
A recent study (Misas-Villamil et al., Nat. Commun., 2019) reveals that Pit2, an apoplastic effector of the corn smut fungus Ustilago maydis, contains an embedded motif of 14 amino acids that binds to and inhibits plant ...
Unraveling determinants of inferred and stated attribute non-attendance: effects on farmers’ willingness to accept to join agri-environmental schemes
(Wiley, 2019)
Attribute non-attendance (ANA) has received very little attention in the context of willingness to accept (WTA), although an increasing number of studies analyze the preferences of ecosystem service providers towards ...
Experimental energy performance assessment of a solar desiccant cooling system in Southern Europe climates
(Elsevier, 2019)
Solar desiccant cooling systems, SDEC, could be an effective alternative to conventional cooling systems, which mainly depend on electrical energy. The main objective of this work was to determine experimentally the seasonal ...
Influence of Obesity and Metabolic Disease on Carotid Atherosclerosis in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease (CordioPrev Study)
(Public Library of Science, 2016)
Background
Recent data suggest that the presence of associated metabolic abnormalities may be
important modifiers of the association of obesity with a poorer prognosis in coronary heart
disease. We determined the influence ...
Reconstruction of humins formation mechanism from decomposition products: A GC-MS study based on catalytic continuous flow depolymerizations
(Elsevier, 2019)
Humins, a by-product of biomass chemical conversion technologies, still present controversies in their structural and mechanistic identification. Traditional studies of the structure and mechanism have focused so far on ...
