In Argentina, there is an important potential to utilize organic waste to generate bioenergy. This work analyzes the environmental impacts and the energetic and economic requirements of the biogas produced by digesting t...

The production of flexible polyurethane foams (FPF) with good acoustical performance to control sound and noise and incorporating bio/recycled raw materials is an interesting alternative to conventional acoustic absorben...

In this work, alumina-supported platinum catalysts promoted with cobalt were analyzed in the preferential CO oxidation (PROX) reaction. The addition of Co represents a significant catalytic improvement with regard to the...

The objective of this study focused on the comparative morphological and histochemical analysis of the duodenum of fetuses, juveniles and adult coypu (Myocastor coypus bonariensis), the major socioeconomic wildlife resou...

Introduction and objectives We explored the differences between atherosclerotic burden with invasive coronary angiography and virtual monochromatic imaging derived from dual-energy computed tomography coronary angiograp...

A facile method for the preparation of cobalt ferrite nanotubes by use of bacterial cellulose nanoribbons as a template is described. The proposed method relays on a simple coprecipitation operation, which is a technique...

In the present work, mechanical properties and failure modes of natural and synthetic fiber reinforced composite sandwich panels under three point bending were studied. Analytical models were developed in order to predic...

Biodegradable polymeric blends based on poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and polylactic acid (PLA) were prepared by melt mixing. Trybutyrin, a bio-based plasticizer, was added at a fixed proportion in all blends. Crystal st...

Grazing by domestic livestock in the Caldenal rangelands has been threatening the ecological balance of this unique biome located in the semiarid zone of central Argentina. The aim of this review was to describe and expl...

Potential nutraceutical properties of hydrophilic antioxidants in fruits of tomato landraces collected in Andean valleys were characterised. Antioxidant metabolites were measured by HPLC-DAD-MS/MS in mature fruits and th...

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Cirrhosis associated immune dysfunction has been proposed to switch from a pro-inflammatory phenotype in stable cirrhosis to an immunodeficient one in patients with decompensated cirrhosis and acut...

A strategy to stabilize octyl (OC)-Rhizomucor miehei lipase (RML) and OC-Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) at pH 10 is necessary to take full advantage of the immobilization of these enzymes on OC-glyoxyl (OCGLX) supports. CaC...

The incidence of metabolic disorders including obesity, type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome have seriously increased in the last decades. These diseases - with growing impact in modern societies - constitute major ris...

Bacterial cellulose (BC) films modified by the in situ method with the addition of alginate (Alg) during the microbial cultivation of Gluconacetobacter hansenii under static conditions increased the loading of doxorubici...

A series of bimetallic Pd-Pb catalysts with a constant Pd content of 1 wt% and Pb/Pd atomic ratio from 0 to 1.6 supported on γ-Al2O3 were prepared and used for glycerol oxidation with H2O2 as the oxidizing agent at atmo...

The relative permittivity of biodiesel-rich blends, from pure biodiesel to 50% blends with diesel fossil fuel, were determined at temperatures between 303.0 K and 343.0 K (controlled within ±0.1 K). Measurements were ma...

The aim of this paper is to contribute to the characterization of the general properties of the Long Period Comets (LPCs) family, and in particular to report on the dust environment of comet C/2009 P1 (Garradd).The comet...

Fossil fuels will be consumed in few decades, so attention is focused on renewable energy sources, among which microalgae are very promising. Neochloris oleoabundans (Chlorophyta) is one of the most interesting organisms...

Gymnopilus pampeanus (GP) is a mushroom consumed in Argentina. Spent Populus sawdust (SPS) obtained from the cultivation of GP was used to test methane production. The effect of two substrate/inoculums (S/I) ratios was a...

El reconocimiento facial de emociones básicas (RFEB) se ha estudiado en la variante conductual de la demencia frontotemporal (DFTvc) y en la demencia tipo Alzheimer(DTA), con hallazgos contradictorios, especialmente al ...

In October 2012, a new law was approved in Uruguay that allows abortion on demand during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, 14 weeks in the case of rape, and without a time limit when the woman's health is at risk or in th...

This paper explores the determinants of firm survival in export markets. We build an exporter dynamics model where firms need to pay market-specific sunk and fixed costs to operate abroad and where firm export profitabil...

A novel ionic material from thiophene and bromobutane was synthesized using ultrasound assistance as an alternative energy source. The optimal sonochemical reaction was carried out at 185 W, 20% duty cycle, 60 min in an ...
