Tropical dry forests and savannas provide important ecosystem services and harbor high biodiversity, yet are globally under pressure from land-use change. Mapping changes in the condition of dry forests and savannas is t...

The coherent manipulation of acoustic waves on the nanoscale usually requires multilayers with thicknesses and interface roughness defined down to the atomic monolayer. This results in expensive devices with predetermine...

A method to monitor seed germination that combines isothermal calorimetry and imbibition measurements is reported. Individual seeds of three cultivars of soybean seeds (A7636RG, Munasqa and DM5.8RR) and one of radish...

In this paper we present a summary of numerical methods for solving free surface and two fluid flow problems. We will focus the attention on level set formulations extensively used in the context of the finite element me...

In this work, we apply the recently developed frequency shift of nanoantennas (FRESA) technique to measure the Young’s modulus of thin mesoporous films at GHz frequencies as a function of porosity with local precision....

The materials that compose the urban envelope are determinant for the reduction of heat gains and overheating of a city. Increasing the solar reflection of vertical materials is an efficient strategy to reduce urban temp...

Ovitraps are a widely used method for mosquito detection and monitoring, especially Aedes mosquitoes. Eggs present in ovitraps must be routinely counted to generate up-to-date information on potential spread of mosquito-...

Functionalizacion of epoxy-based networks by the preferential surface enrichment of perfluorinated tails to achieve hydrophobic surface is described. The selected fluorinated epoxies (FE) were: 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,...

Kinetic studies of 2-chlorophenol photocatalytic degradation are carried out in a batch stirred built in quartz laboratory scale, using TiO2 as catalyst photoactived with ultraviolet light. Experimental design is per...

Green laser irradiation successfully activated self-healing processes in epoxy-acid networks modified with low amounts of gold nanoparticles (NPs). A bio-based polymer matrix, obtained by crosslinking epoxidized soybean ...

Our understanding of the distribution of integrons associated with multidrug resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii isolates around the world remains incomplete. The association between the class 1 and 2 integron A. bau...

Se investigó el hinchamiento de la madera de Eucalytus grandis de Argentina, utilizando muestras seleccionadas al azar de plantaciones ubicadas en las provincias de Corrientes y Entre Ríos. Los materiales y los método...

En el presente estudio se investiga la influencia de la estructura de entrenamiento en la formación de relaciones de equivalencia y de “equivalencia-equivalencia”. Se estudiaron tres grupos de sujetos los cuales fue...

We developed a new multiplexed-PCR assay to accurately classify Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC) isolates at the sublineage level by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). This method relies on 7 SNPs located in...

Rural abandonment is a global phenomenon promoted by biophysical, socio-economic, and socio-productive causes, leading to the disappearance of traditional agricultural practices and serious impacts on food security and l...

El cinturón hortícola de La Plata es uno de los más importantes de la Argentina por el volumen de la producción. La mayoría de los productores son migrantes bolivianos, que atraviesan dificultades para acceder a la ...

We report here the virtual screening design, synthesis and activity of eight new inhibitors of SphK1. For this study we used a pre-trained Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) combined with docking calculations. This explor...

Los espantos, salamancas, tembladerales y mujeres del río aparecen como espacios, eventos y/o seres que, según el contexto de aparición, son reflexionados e interpretados de diferentes maneras por los habitantes cotid...

South American camelids comprise the wild species guanaco and vicuña and their respective domestic relatives llama and alpaca. The aim of the present study was to determine by DNA analysis to which of these species belo...

Macrofossil impressions of caytonialean leaves and micro- and megasporangiate organs from the Early Jurassic Taquetrén locality in Patagonia, Argentina, are described based on more than 300 hand specimens. Leaves of the...

La coexistencia de especies ecológicamente similares es facilitada por el uso diferencial de recursos como el hábitat, la dieta y/o los gradientes temporales. Utilizamos heces de las especies no nativa conejo (Oryctola...

The aerobic degradation of phenol (PH), catechol (CA), resorcinol (RE), pyrogallol (PY), and hydroquinone (HY) by phenol-acclimated activated sludge was investigated. A Haldane-type dependence of the respiration rate on ...

A novel closed-loop control methodology is introduced to stabilize a cylinder wake flow based on images of streaklines. Passive scalar tracers are injected upstream the cylinder and their concentration is monitored downs...

The dielectric properties of electrochemically grown zirconium oxide films by anodisation of zirconium in 1.0 mol dm?3 phosphoric acid solution were investigated in a 3 to 30 V potential range with a view to inducing su...
