A multi-tissue study of immune gene expression profiling highlights the key role of the nasal epithelium in COVID-19 severity
(Elsevier, 2022)
Coronavirus Disease-19 (COVID-19) symptoms range from mild to severe illness; the cause for this differential response to infection remains unknown. Unravelling the immune mechanisms acting at different levels of the ...
Tuning coherent-phonon heat transport in LaCoO3/SrTiO3 Superlattices
(ACS Publications, 2021)
Accessing the regime of coherent phonon propagation in nanostructures opens enormous possibilities to control the thermal conductivity in energy harvesting devices, phononic circuits, etc. In this paper we show that coherent ...
Potent and subtype-selective dopamine D2 receptor biased partial agonists discovered via an Ugi-based approach
(ACS Publications, 2021)
Using a previously unexplored, efficient, and versatile multicomponent method, we herein report the rapid generation of novel potent and subtype-selective DRD2 biased partial agonists. This strategy exemplifies the search ...
Lactoferrin-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) as a new formulation for optimized ocular drug delivery
(Elsevier, 2022)
Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) are novel lipidic nanosystems that provide significant improvements in terms of high drug loading capacity and controlled drug release. The purpose of the present work was based on the ...
Merging supramolecular and covalent helical polymers: four helices within a single scaffold
(ACS Publications, 2021)
Supramolecular and covalent polymers share multiple structural effects such as chiral amplification, helical inversion, sergeants and soldiers, or majority rules, among others. These features are related to the axial helical ...
Dynamic chiral PPA–AgNP nanocomposites: aligned silver nanoparticles decorating helical polymers
(ACS Publications, 2021)
A novel approach to prepare stimulus-sensitive nanocomposites is described, based on a dynamic helical polymer, chiral poly(phenylacetylene) (PPA), and silver nanoparticles. To preserve the dynamic helical behavior of PPA ...
Unveiling an NMR-invisible fraction of polymers in solution by saturation transfer difference
(ACS Publications, 2021)
The observation of signals in solution NMR requires nuclei with sufficiently large transverse relaxation times (T2). Otherwise, broad signals embedded in the baseline afford an invisible fraction of nuclei (IF). Based on ...
Criptografía simétrica vs. asimétrica
(2021-07)
[GL] A criptografía clásica xorde no século V a.C. ligada ao mundo militar e co único fin de
ocultar mensaxes dun xeito rudimentario. Non é ata arredor do 1948, cando esta se sitúa
nun contexto computacional e matemático ...
Effect of the addition of different sodium alginates on viscoelastic, structural features and hydrolysis kinetics of corn starch gels
(Elsevier, 2022)
Corn starch gels (1:4 w:w) were made with the addition (up to 2% w/w starch basis) of sodium alginates of different average molecular sizes and nature. Rheology of the starchy gels were characterized to evaluate their ...
A QIM-based evaluation of sensory quality of frozen–thawed roundnose grenadier (Coryphaenoides rupestris) and its applications
(ACS Publications, 2021)
The quality index method (QIM) is widely used for fish sensory assessment, but there are hardly any studies on quality changes in fish that have been previously frozen. A QIM scheme was developed for frozen Roundnose ...
