For differences between C. wanda wanda and C. arida cakana, see under C. arida cakana. For differences between C. wanda wanda and C. adelaidae adelaidae, see under C. adelaidae adelaidae. Identification. The photos of the type specimens of both Colias wanda and C. baeckeri presented by Grieshuber (2015, 2016a, 2020) on the internet are consulted. One of the male specimens from Tongren area (Fig. 7 - Specimen C27), neighbouring to the type locality of C. wanda, is almost identical with the lectotype of C. wanda in the wing-characters. Male and female specimens from Qilian County are in common with some of the type specimens of C. baeckeri. The authors agree with Grieshuber & Churkin (2003) in synonymizing C. baeckeri with C. wanda, considering the great individual variations in male and the consistence of the wing characters in female. The male specimens from Huashixia area are a little different in the more frequently greenish ground color on hindwing underside, but such difference is not out of the individual variations of C. wanda wanda. The female specimens from Huashixia are in common with the females from the other localities in Qinghai. Specimens from Dulan area are larger than in other populations of C. wanda, often as large as the specimens of C. arida cakana; they are identified as C. wanda wanda on the female characters.

Electrochemical detection of miRNA using commercial and hand‐made screen‐printed electrodes: liquid biopsy for cancer management as case of study
No full textThe growth of liquid biopsy, i. e., the possibility of obtaining health information by analysing circulating species (nucleic acids, cells, proteins, and vesicles) in peripheric biofluids, is pushing the field of sensors and biosensors beyond the limit to provide decentralised solutions for nonspecialists. In particular, among all the circulating species that can be adopted in managing cancer evolution, both for diagnostic and prognostic applications, microRNAs have been highly studied and detected. The development of electrochemical devices is particularly relevant for liquid biopsy purposes, and the screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) represent one of the building blocks for producing novel portable devices. In this work, we have taken miR-2115-3p as model target (it is related to lung cancer), and we have developed a biosensor by exploiting the use of a complementary DNA probe modified with methylene blue as redox mediator. In particular, the chosen sensing architecture was applied to serum measurements of the selected miRNA, obtaining a detection limit within the low nanomolar range; in addition, various platforms were interrogated, namely commercial and hand-made SPEs, with the aim of providing the reader with some insights about the optimal platform to be used by considering both the cost and the analytical performance.Screen-printed electrodes are able to offer potent tools for detecting miRNAs in liquid biopsy: commercial or handmade? imag

MIMESIS PADA GAMELAN WANDA ANYAR
No full textKoko Koswara (Mang Koko) which is a reformer figure in Sundanese music (karawitan) able to create a new genre art that remains oriented to the aesthetics of Sundanese gamelan. The genre is called Gamelan Wanda Anyar created around the 70s. The authors are interested to study the instrument / gending of this art which has a dynamic musical form structure. The phenomenon of sound that occurs in Gamelan Wanda Anyar dish stimulates the writer to trace it further in both textual and contextual. In dissecting this case the author uses the aesthetic theory that Aristotle devised about mimesis (imitation). The purpose of this paper is to provide cm overview of the work of Mang Koko mean poured in the Gamelan Wanda Anyar which until now is still a benchmark of the artists in developing Sundanese music(karawitan
Wanda, królowa sarmacka – próba epopei
No full text1809 saw an anonymous publication of a fragment of the poem Wanda, królowa sarmacka [Wanda, the Queen of Sarmathians]. We read that Wanda, the daughter of Krakus, wanders with her companions as an envoy to the Jazyges to ask them for help against the Germanic invaders led by Rotygar. On their way they meet a pious hermit who advises them on the value of virtue and predicts the princess’s future. During their further voyage, as they are sailing down the Danube, a storm caused by the wind god Pochwist on request of the love goddess Dzidziela destroys their barge. Wanda’s companions die while she survives and travels on, holding on to a piece of the barge. Wanda recalls the tradition of epic; the author introduces motifs typical for this genre, including the epic machinery, replacing the ancient gods with characters from the Slavic mythology, opposing the decrees of the Christian God. The work, however, has also some distinct features of a descriptive poem. Wanda is a very good indication of changes which occurred in epic poetry in early 19th century

Bioactive Secondary Metabolites Produced by the Oak Pathogen Diplodia corticola
No full textThree new lactones and a new fatty acid ester, named sapinofuranones C and D, diplopyrone B, and diplobifuranylone C, respectively, were isolated from Diplodia corticola, together with sphaeropsidins A and C, diplopyrone, diplobifuranylones A and B, diplofuranone A, and the (S,S)-enantiomer of sapinofuranone B. Sapinofuranones C and D, diplopyrone B, and diplobifuranylone C were characterized as (5S)-5-((1,S-1,6-dihydroxyhexa-2,4-dienyl)-dihydrofuran-2-one, 4,5-dihydroxy-deca-6,8-dienoic acid methyl ester, (5S)-5-hydroxy-6-(penta-1,3-dienyl)-5,6-dihydro-pyran-2-one, and 5′-((1R)-1-hydroxyethyl)-2′,5′-dihydro-2H-[2,2′]bifuranyl-5-one by spectroscopic and chemical methods, respectively. The relative configuration of sapinofuranone C was assigned by X-ray diffraction analysis, whereas its absolute configuration was determined by applying the advanced Mosher's method to its 11-O-p-bromobenzoyl derivative. The same method was used to assign the absolute configuration to C-5 of diplopyrone B and to that of the hydroxyethyl of the side chain of diplobifuranylone C, respectively. The metabolites isolated were tested at 1 mg/mL on leaves of cork oak, grapevine cv. 'Cannonau', and tomato using the leaf puncture assay. They were also tested on tomato cuttings at 0.2, 0.1, and 0.05 mg/mL. Each compound was tested for zootoxic activity on Artemia salina L. larvae. The efficacy of sapinofuranone C and diplopyrone B on three plant pathogens, namely, Athelia rolfsii, Fusarium avenaceum, and Phytophthora nicotianae was also evaluated. In all phytotoxic assays only diplopyrone B was found to be active. It also showed strong inhibition on the vegetative growth of A. rolfsii and P. nicotianae. All metabolites were inactive in the assay performed for the zootoxic activity (A. salina) even at the highest concentration used (200 μg/mL). Diplopyrone B showed a promising antioomycete activity for the control of Phytophthora spp. also taking into account the absence of zootoxic activity
L’obbligatorietà della rinnovazione della prova dichiarativa nel giudizio di rinvio
No full textPer la Corte di cassazione il giudice del rinvio ha il dovere di riacquisire la prova dichiarativa, ai sensi del
comma 3-bis dell’art. 603 c.p.p., sempre che sussistano i presupposti normativi, ovvero si tratti di un
overturnig “verticale” e non, invece, di un ribaltamento decisorio tra la sentenza rescindente e quella
rescissoria. L’Autore, dopo aver individuato la fonte del potere/dovere della riassunzione della prova
orale in fase di rinvio nell’art. 627, comma 2, c.p.p., si sofferma sui limiti di applicabilità dei principi
europei in materia di immediatezza nel rito rescissorio. L’obiettivo è l’individuazione di una soluzione
di compromesso tra la funzione di controllo - propria di ogni impugnazione - e l’esigenza di oralità e di
immediatezza che deve permeare tali giudizi.For the Court of Cassation the referring judge has the duty to regain the declaratory proof, pursuant to
paragraph 3-bis of art. 603 c.p.p, provided that the normative presuppositions exist, that is to say that
it is an overturnig “vertical” and not, instead, a reversal of the decision between the rescindent and
the rescissoria sentence. The Author, after having identified the source of the power/duty of the
reassignment of the oral test during referral in art. 627, paragraph 2, c.p.p., focuses on the limits of
applicability of European principles in the field of immediacy in the rescissory rite. The aim is to find a
compromise solution between the control function - specific to every appeal - and the need for orality
and immediacy that must permeate these judgments
