Ultraproductos de C*-álgebras, su semigrupo de Cuntz y sus (cuasi)trazas
No full textDiscutiremos cómo el semigrupo de Cuntz de un ultraproducto de C*-álgebras se puede determinar en función del semigrupo de las álgebras individuales. En este proceso se usa la noción de escala en el semigrupo así como un proceso de completación que es muy útil en el estudio de semigrupos de Cuntz abstractos. Como aplicación, se mencionará como este resultado se puede usar para caracterizar cuándo cuasitrazas límite són densas en el espacio de todas la cuasitrazas en un ultraproducto libre.

Nurturing Supportive and Engaging Induction Environments for Distance-learning Students
No full textAbstractDistance learning (DL) students typically learn with very limited or no requirements for physical presence and this often means that learning may be perceived as a more isolating or less ‘natural’ experience. Postgraduate (PG) DL students are particularly vulnerable as mature students with working and family commitments who require more support in their transition to a DL PG study, having experienced a longer break in education. This paper presents the main findings of a survey of 82 students and semi-structured interviews with 11 students studying at the Robert Gordon University (Aberdeen, Scotland). The research explored their expectations and challenges encountered in transitioning to a DL PG study across a number of different subject areas. The study found that the online induction process should meet a variety of expectations and needs, focusing primarily on academic and social aspects. DL study can be an isolating experience, which can be made less alienating when there is a chance for students to get to know their peers and teaching staff. An inclusive approach to online induction geared towards flexible support and interactive, engaging content is an important consideration
Cultivation of Tuber melanosporum in firebreaks: Short-term persistence of the fungus and effect of seedling age and soil treatment
No full text[EN] Wildfires are a major threat to Mediterranean forests. Firebreaks are built as a prevention measure, but require a periodic and expensive maintenance. Cultivating the ectomycorrhizal mushroom Tuber melanosporum Vitt. in firebreaks could reduce costs and improve their sustainability. But firebreaks are built on forest soil, considered nonoptimum for T. melanosporum cultivation. A pot experiment was used to study the persistence of T. melanosporum in firebreak soils in the short term, as a first step to assess the viability of these plantations. The influence of seedlings, soil heating, and liming was also tested. During the 2 y after plantation, T. melanosporum mycorrhizas increased their number, showing its ability to proliferate. Percent root colonisation by native fungi importantly increased from month 12 to 22; although T. melanosporum remained dominant, with a colonisation level similar to those in standard truffle plantations. The age of seedlings at the time of planting influenced T. melanosporum proliferation, supporting a key role for nursery seedling quality in the performance of young plantations. Heating the soil before planting reduced the richness of native fungi, suggesting that this could increase plantation success. The results tend to support the viability of T. melanosporum cultivation in firebreaks, and encourage experimental field plantations. (C) 2013 The British Mycological Society.

ESTUDIO TÉCNICO Y PROCESO DE INTERVENCIÓN DE TRES YUGOS DE PRINCIPIOS DEL S. XX
No full text[ES] En este trabajo de fin de grado se presenta el caso de estudio de tres yugos de principios del siglo XX, de los cuales se desconoce el autor o taller de procedencia. Este se aborda mediante la contextualización de las piezas a través de su registro técnico-histórico. Al desconocer su procedencia, se realiza una aproximación documental de su origen y cronología por medio de
la comparación con piezas similares y la búsqueda bibliográfica.
En base a los datos obtenidos sobre este tipo de instrumentos, se lleva a cabo un análisis de su estado de conservación y la detección de los factores de degradación tanto extrínsecos como intrínsecos. Atendiendo a sus patologías y los estudios previos, se desarrolla una metodología de intervención, planteando los posibles tratamientos idóneos para cada caso.
Esta propuesta de conservación pretende favorecer la perdurabilidad de las tres piezas. El proyecto se lleva a cabo porque pese a que ya no se emplean este tipo de aparejos, forman una parte importante del desarrollo histórico del instrumental empleado en la labor agrícola en nuestra cultura.[EN] This end-of-degree work presents the case study of three yokes from the early XX century, whose author or workshop of origin is unknown. This is approached through the contextualization of the pieces through their technical-historical register. Since we do not know its origin, we make a
documentary approximation of its origin and chronology by means of comparison with similar pieces and a bibliographic search.
Based on the data obtained on this type of instruments, an analysis of their state of conservation and the detection of both extrinsic and intrinsic degradation factors is carried out. Taking into account their pathologies and previous studies, an intervention methodology is developed, considering the possible ideal treatments for each case.
This conservation proposal aims to promote the durability of the three pieces. The project is carried out because although this type of equipment is no longer used, it forms an important part of the historical development of the instruments used in agricultural work.Martín Domenech, A.

PCV13 vaccine prevents pneumococcal biofilms without affecting Staphylococcus aureus population within the polymicrobial biofilm

This work was supported by Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (MICINN) (grant PID2020-119298RB-100 and grant CPP2022-009574).In respiratory pathogens such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, biofilm formation is associated with the colonization of the nasopharynx and chronic respiratory infection. Previous data have shown that pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) had an impact on S. pneumoniae colonization and a potential replacement by other respiratory pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus. The objective of this work was to evaluate the evasion of the immune system by monospecific biofilms and by S. aureus-S. pneumoniae mixed biofilms. We performed opsonophagocytosis assays (OPA) using human HL-60 against previously disaggregated monospecific biofilms of MSSA, MRSA and S. aureus-S. pneumoniae mixed biofilms. We used pre-immune and post-immune serum from immunocompetent adult patients vaccinated with PCV13. Immune sera had a clear effect in reducing pneumococcal biofilms of serotypes 3, 14, 18C, 19F and 19A, whereas had no effect in non-PCV13 serotypes such as 8, 11A and 24F. Our study confirmed that serum from vaccinated patients with PCV13 did not have any effect in reducing S. aureus population in monospecific biofilms, regardless the methicillin resistance phenotype. Moreover, immunized sera from vaccinated patients with PCV13 did not have any effect in S. aureus population in the mixed biofilm, whereas significantly reduced the population of pneumococcal serotype 19A strain in the mixed biofilm which is of great interest because this serotype is included in PCV13, and it is associated with vaccine failures.Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (España)Depto. de Genética, Fisiología y MicrobiologíaFac. de Ciencias BiológicasTRUEpu
