Paola Gianturco: Women Who Light the Dark
No full textPaola Gianturco is a photographer, author, and advocate for women\u27s rights world-wide. For the past thirteen years, she has worked as a photojournalist, documenting women’s lives in forty countries. She has published four acclaimed photo books which bring together inspiring stories with gorgeous photographs to motivate her readers to engage with, learn from and support women around the world. All of Gianturco’s books are philanthropic projects, for which she donates her royalties to carefully selected nonprofit organizations that relate to each book\u27s content. Paola\u27s most recent book, Women Who Light the Dark, tells the story of local women around the world who are helping one another tackle the problems that darken their lives—including violence, poverty, illiteracy and disease. Gianturco is giving 100% of her author royalties for this book to The Global Fund for Women.https://thekeep.eiu.edu/humanitiescenter_meaningfulwork1011/1002/thumbnail.jp
Cadmium-thionein in Tetrahymena thermophila and Tatrahymena pyriformis.
No full textSummary: The treatment of Tetrahymena thermophila with cadmium causes a reduction in growth rate according to dose; almost all the metal is accumulated in the cytosol where the Zn content is also increased threefold.
Bio-Gel and Water 160 (HPLC) column chromatography show that Cd and Zn are bound to a protein with an ultraviolet (UV) spectrum that appears to be similar to that of Cd-metallothioneins isolated by higher organisms, but its molecular weight is greater: about 28 000 D, comparable to that of metallothionein isolated from Tetrahymena pyriformis.
Further purification of these proteins by ion exchange chromatography revealed the presence of two peaks, considered as two isoforms of the metallothioneins present in both T. thermophila and T. pyriformis (MT 1 and MT 2). Their amino acid analyses confirmed that they are different isometallothioneins, MT 1 and MT 2, with about 30% cysteine, and aspartic acid, glycine and lysine as major amino acids. From our analyses we may conclude that Tetrahymena pyriformis MTs are similar to those present in invertebrates and vertebrates, while Tetrahymena thermophila MTs are peculiar in that they have cyclic amino acid histidine in both MT 1 and MT 2; furthermore, aromatic amino acid phenylalanine is also present in MT 2

No full text«Yo soy de Destierrolandia»: Fernando Arrabal y el límite
No full textFernando Arrabal is a Spanish author - actually, no, he isn't. He is a francophone writer, or, more accurately, a Spanish expatriate. Or, on the contrary, he is a traitor, an «afrancesado». In this paper Fernando Arrabal's case will be used as an example of the difficulties that an author has to face when he leaves his own country and moves to another different from a spatial, cultural, and linguistic point of view. Besides, I will analyze the unusual position of the critic in the reception and interpretation of a corpus that, while being obviously connected to its author, cannot refer to a precise national context
