    Nell’ambito di un progetto integrato del Centro di Cosmetologia Chimica dell’Università di Padova sono state messe in evidenza le correlazioni esistenti tra lo sbilanciamento delle forze inter e intramolecolari dovute al turnover cellulare epidermico ed il riflesso energetico da esse indotte a livello superficiale

    Il TVS skin test

    No full text
    L’applicazione topica per sua natura provoca delle perturbazioni che coinvolgono il dominio strutturale e superficiale del sistema-pelle con cui si viene a contatto. Il TVS skin test si basa sulla misura del riflesso energetico superficiale indotto dallo sbilanciamento delle forze attrattive di coesione. L’attività biosintetica epidermica e il turnover cellulare provocano uno sbilanciamento delle forze inter e intramolecolari che a livello superficiale si riflettono sottoforma di energia libera superficiale (ELS) nelle sue due componenti fondamentali dispersa (CD) e polare (CP). Tale riflesso è stato misurato in vivo e in vitro per la prima volta nel Centro di Cosmetologia Chimica C.A. Benassi dell’Università di Padova

    Bioadhesive topical application of tryptophan derivatives

    Innovative formulations with high affinity for biological substrates can be designed by exploiting the TVS tensiometric versus skin approach. Combining a compressed air continous-spray application system with biomimetic agents modulating the epidermal barrier (badsystem), bioadhesive topical application of tryptophan derivatives are well obtained without side effects. The biomimetic effect of tryptophan-badsystem was observed

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
