Many structures are subjected to impact and diverse alternatives to measure the concrete performance under these loads have been developed. In this paper a test procedure for evaluating the contribution of different type...

Aging is one of the main risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, and oxidative stress is a key element responsible for the development of age-related pathologies. In addition, the alteration of circadian rhythms also c...

The aim of this work is to assess the risk of groundwater contamination associated with BTEX dissolution from fuels as a residual phase. Numerical simulations of sixty scenarios were carried out with the software HYDRUS ...

Lactic acid bacteria can be considered as natural biopreservative and good biotechnological alternative to food safety. In this study, the antilisterial compounds produced by Enterococcus isolates from the Patagonian env...

The Southern Annular Mode (SAM) is the main mode of variability in the Southern Hemisphere extra-tropical circulation and it is so called because of its zonally symmetric ring-like shape. However, the SAM pattern actuall...

In this work we search for boundedness results for operators related to the semigroup generated by the degenerate Schrödinger operator Lu=−1ωdivA⋅∇u+Vu, where ω is a weight, A is a matrix depending on x and sati...

The aim of this work is to evaluate the dynamics of dust deposition and characterize its elemental composition in case study at Chubut coastal Patagonia in Argentina after a shrubland fire. On 22 December 2016, a fire to...

The study of the pre-Mesozoic geological history of NE Mexico offers the opportunity to reconstruct the processes that occurred at the NW margin of Gondwana. The Huizachal–Peregrina Anticlinorium, which is located west...

The increase in consumer requirements for safe and high-quality food has promoted the development of active and edible packaging materials based on biopolymers. In this study, composite tapioca starch films by addition o...

This study shows that some species of fungi are affected by the magnetic field, which should be taken into account in studies of airborne fungal and air quality. The aim of this paper was to evaluate the effect of the os...

In this paper, an efficient and robust methodology to simulate saturated soils subjected to low-medium frequency dynamic loadings under large deformation regime is presented. The coupling between solid and fluid phases i...

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out on hydroxylated and solvated (H&S) Fe substrates. Fe (110) and (111) extended surfaces as well as clusters of 32 and 59 atoms, and a nanoparticle of 80 atoms ...

Thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) are major pests of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.). They cause feeding damage and indirect injuries transmitting plant viruses. In Argentina, peanut is commonly affected by thrips. The crop ...

We propose an extended General Relativistic formalism with boundary terms included, that describes the dynamics of quantum spinor fields, which can take intermediate values, named (3 + 1) -anyons. In the approach here wo...

Introduction: Though interest is growing for trials comparing planned delivery mode (vaginal delivery [VD]; cesarean section [CS]) in low-risk nulliparous women, appropriate study design is unclear. Our objective was to ...

One way to transfer apomixis (asexual reproduction through seeds) to major crops could be through genetic transformation, but for this a set of transgenes that triggers each of the involved processes should be generated....

Natural hydrogels are widely used for 3D-bioprinting because of their qualities fortissue engineering. Recently, hydrogels have been combined with bioactive glasses,due to their angiogenic properties that aid tissue rege...

Background: Heregulin is a ligand for the protooncogene product ErbB/HER that acts as a key mitogenic factor for human Schwann cells (hSCs). Heregulin is required for sustained hSC growth in vitro but must be thorough...

Fusarium graminearum is considered the main causative agent of Fusarium Head Blight in wheat. The fungus produces mycotoxins of the trichothecene family that pose a significant threat to the health of animals and humans....

In this article we show that the only 2-step nilpotent Lie groups which carry a non-degenerate left invariant Killing–Yano 2-form are the complex Lie groups. In the case of 2-step nilpotent complex Lie groups arising f...

The lectotypification of the Linnaean name Verbena orubica L. is discussed. Based on thorough study of original material and pertinent literature, a critical review is provided and a lectotype is designated upon a specim...

Since the adoption of portable devices like smartphones or smartwatches, the usage of applications has rapidly increased for supporting diverse daily activities from connecting with friends to measuring running distance....

The objective of this study was to evaluate the occurrence of pesticides in surface and groundwater of agricultural areas of the Pampas region of Argentina and to develop an ecological risk assessment (ERA) of pesticides...

The post-harvest processing of strawberries generates considerable amounts of by-products that consist of the inedible parts of the fruit (sepal, calyx, stem, and non-marketable portion of the fruit), which is an environ...
