World War I record of service for Arnold D. Amoroso, signed by Amoroso on 24 October 1922
No full textQuestionnaire with information about Arnold Dante Amoroso's service in World War I, 1917-1919, signed by Amoroso on 24 October 1922.Questionnaire originally part of a survey of Norwich University alumni conducted by a “Norwich in the World War” committee consisting of Charles N. Barber (chairman), Carl V. Woodbury, K.R.B. Flint, and Gustaf A. Nelson. Data from these questionnaires may have been used in a chapter of "Vermont in the world war, 1917-1919" by Harold P. Sheldon (1928). Transcription by Carina Berg. Transcriptions may be subject to error
Inhibition of PPARγ by Natural Compounds as a Promising Strategy in Obesity and Diabetes
No full textA wide group of natural compounds (flavonoids, stilbenes, neolignans and others) has been identified as Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor (PPAR) agonists, with a large variety of chemical structure and different activity versus the three PPAR subtypes. These receptors are transcription factors controlling metabolic pathways in the organism, involved in lipid and glucose metabolism, cell differentiation and energy homeostasis. Otherwise, very little is known about natural compounds able to inhibit PPARs. A number of studies demonstrate that PPARγ repression has a beneficial effect in reducing body weight and improving insulin sensitivity, suggesting a potential clinical role in obesity and type 2 diabetes. This review analyzes natural compounds able to repress PPAR activity and their potential use in metabolic disorders. © 2019 Ammazzalorso and Amoroso

Lindane Removal Using Streptomyces Strains and Maize (Zeas mays) Plants
No full textThe organochlorine pesticide (OP) lindane was removed from minimal medium (MM) by two Streptomyces native strains, while growing on maize root exudates (REs) as a primary carbon and energy source. REs supported 55 and 35% of lindane removal by Streptomyces sp. strains A5 and M7, respectively; corroborating the hypothesis that co-metabolism may be a plant/microbe interaction important to bioremediation. In addition, residual lindane concentration was more than half of the amount in MM supplemented with glucose compared to MM supplemented with REs, suggesting that exudates could be more appropriate carbon source to support aerobic dehalogenation of the pesticide. Lindane-degrading activity was detected in REs, which could explain 42% of lindane removal in REs-lindane assay, without microorganisms. Because Streptomyces sp. A5 showed maximum biomass and the highest pesticide removal in REs-lindane assay, it was found to be the most promising strain regarding their future application. These results showed that phytostimulation of OP-degrading actinobacteria by maize REs are therefore likely to be a successful strategy for the remediation of lindane-contaminated environments.Fil: Alvarez, Analia.

A Modeling Framework Capable of Characterizing the Dynamics of POGO Oscillations in Space Rocket Turbopumps
No full textA modeling framework defined in the time-domain has
been developed to characterize the steady state and dynamic
behavior of each component of a typical feeding system for
liquid rocket engine. A typical water loop for experimental
characterization of liquid rocket turbopumps has been modeled
according to the modeling framework in order to understand
which is the best way to perform forced experiments for the
characterization of the transfer matrix of cavitating
turbopumps necessary for understanding the POGO instability
phenomena that affect rocket launchers. The best results in
terms of capability of generating mass flow rate and pressure
oscillations at the inlet of the inducer have been obtained by
means of a device that produces a volume oscillation located
downstream of the pump
Acerca del discurso poético amoroso de Eduardo García
No full textThe article offers a brief tour of the poetic work of Eduardo García’s amorous cut to infer his vision of the world and poetry from his love speech. Beyond the meta-poetic dimension, the love poetry of Eduardo García is marked by a kind of temporal obsession; but not in the manner of the topics Tempus fugit, Colligo virgo roses etc., since it is not the passage of time or the physical degradation that torments our poet, but the simultaneous coexistence of several temporal layers, of various amorous feelings, of sentimental stories that overlap: the real woman and the dreamed, the daily and the inaccessible, the future and the already lost forever, the one that coexists with the self in the space of the house and the one that is invariably found in distant paradises.El artículo ofrece un breve recorrido por la obra poética de corte amoroso de Eduardo García para inferir de su discurso amoroso su visión del mundo y de la poesía. Más allá de la dimensión meta-poética, la poesía amorosa de Eduardo García está marcada por una especie de obsesión temporal; pero no a la manera de los tópicos Tempus fugit, Colligo virgo rosas, etc., puesto que no es el paso del tiempo ni la degradación física lo que atormenta a nuestro poeta, sino la coexistencia simultánea de varios estratos temporales, de varios sentimientos amorosos, de historias sentimentales que se superponen: la mujer real y la soñada, la cotidiana y la inaccesible, la futura y la ya perdida para siempre, la que convive con el yo en el espacio de la casa y la que se encuentra invariablemente en paraísos lejanos
Strutture neolitiche a Villanova di Cepagatti
No full textLe recenti ricerche nel sito di Villanova di Cepagatti hanno portato alla luce quattro strutture neolitiche scavate nel terreno, il cui primo impianto può forse essere ricondotto ad attività di estrazione di materiale argilloso. Il riempimento delle strutture ha restituito frammenti ceramici attribuibili all’aspetto della ceramica impressa medio-adriatica, con particolari confronti con i siti dell’Abruzzo meridionale.Recent research at the site of Masseria Obletter (Villanova di Cepagatti) has brought in light four neolithic structures, which had been dug into the ground. They were probably excavated for the extraction of clayish material. The fill of these structures contained fragments of central adriatic impressed ware pottery, with specific aspects comparable to the sites in southern Abruzzo
Schiller e il secolo d'oro dell'estetica tedesca
No full textIl saggio argomenta la centralità e l’importanza di Schiller nel “secolo d’oro dell’estetica tedesca”, quello che va dalla prima proposta, da parte di Baumgarten, di una nuova disciplina (l’estetica, appunto) fino alla pubblicazione (postuma) delle lezioni di estetica di Hegel. La prima parte del saggio ripercorre brevemente i testi teorici di Schiller, contestualizzandoli soprattutto in riferimento a Kant; la seconda parte discute la recezione di Schiller nell’estetica romantica e idealistica
