Phase conversions in neutron stars: Implications for stellar stability and gravitational wave astrophysics
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2021-12)
We review the properties of hybrid stars with a quark matter core and a hadronic mantle, focusing on the role of key micro-physical properties such as the quark/hadron surface and curvature tensions and the conversion speed ...
Exploring the core level shift origin of sulfur and thiolates on Pd(111) surfaces
(Royal Society Of Chemistry, 2015-10)
Thiol molecules on planar metal surfaces are widely used for building sensing and electronic devices and also as capping agents to protect and to control the size and shape of nanoparticles. In the case of Pd the thiol ...
Assessing Different Ways of Bacillus subtilis Spreading over Abiotic Surfaces
(Bio-Protocol LLC, 2019-11)
Surface-associate motility on biotic and abiotic environments is a key mechanism used by the model bacterium Bacillus subtilis and its closest relatives (i.e., B. amyloliquefaciens, B. thuringiensis, B. cereus, B. pumilus) ...
Bioremediation of a petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated Antarctic soil: Optimization of a biostimulation strategy using response-surface methodology (RSM)
(Elsevier Science, 2015-11)
Bioremediation is a biotechnological approach to clean up contaminated soils. Among bioremediation strategies, biostimulation is a simple method which involves the modification of the soil physicochemical conditions in ...
Relationship between sea surface temperature anomalies in the Southwestern Atlantic Continental Shelf and atmospheric variability on intraseasonal timescales
(Springer-v D I Verlag Gmbh, 2022-09)
The intraseasonal (IS) variability of the sea surface temperature (SST) in the Southwestern Atlantic Continental Shelf (SWACS, 45–33° S—70–50° W), and its relationship with that in the atmosphere, was studied for the austral ...
Modelling of bioprocess non-linear fluorescence data for at-line prediction of etanercept based on artificial neural networks optimized by response surface methodology
(Elsevier Science, 2020-04)
In the last years, regulatory agencies in biopharmaceutical industry have promoted the design and implementation of Process Analytical Technology (PAT), which aims to develop rapid and high-throughput strategies for real-time ...
Surface-enhanced vibrational spectroscopy for probing transient interactions of proteins with biomimetic interfaces: Electric field effects on structure, dynamics and function of cytochrome c
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2011-05)
Most of the biochemical and biophysical processes of proteins take place at membranes, and are thus under the influence of strong local electric fields, which are likely to affect the structure as well as the reaction ...
High predation is of key importance for dominance of small-bodied zooplankton in warm shallow lakes: Evidence from lakes, fish exclosures and surface sediments
(Springer, 2011-06)
The mean body size of limnetic cladocerans decreases from cold temperate to tropical regions, in both the northern and the southern hemisphere. This size shift has been attributed to both direct (e.g. physiological) or ...
The surface salinity maximum of the South Atlantic
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-02)
Like most other ocean basins, the maximum sea surface salinity region (MSR) in the South Atlantic shows a large displacement from the region of maximum difference between evaporation and precipitation (E-P), suggesting ...
Evolution of adsorbed CO on Pt and Pt/Au surface
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-04-20)
In this work, we studied in detail one of the possible limiting-steps during CO oxidation at Pt and Pt/Au electrodes, namely CO adsorption and diffusion at the electrode's surface. With this aim, we used an electroless ...
