[EN] Senescent cells accumulate in multiple aging-associated diseases, and eliminating these cells has recently emerged as a promising therapeutic approach. Here, we take advantage of the high lysosomal beta-galactosidase ...
Pavement maintenance is one of the major issues of public agencies. Insufficient investment or inefficient maintenance strategies lead to high economic expenses in the long term. Under budgetary restrictions, the optimal ...
[EN] In recent years, geopolymers have become a widely researched binding material. There are technological and environmental advantages tousing this type of binder instead of Portland cement. In this study, binary systems ...

[EN] In the present work, ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) and sewage sludge ash (SSA) blends were assessed for the production of alkali-activated pastes and mortars. Percentages of SSA to substitute GGBS ranged ...
[EN] Single-stranded DNA-binding proteins (SSBs) play a key role in genome maintenance, binding and organizing single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) intermediates. Multimeric SSBs, such as the human mitochondrial SSB (HmtSSB), present ...

[EN] The trade-off between photobrightening and photobleaching controls the emission stability of colloidal quantum dots. This balance is critical in optical trapping configurations, where irradiances that confine and ...
[EN] Synthetic biology exploits the of mathematical modeling of synthetic circuits both to predict the behavior of the designed synthetic devices, and to help on the selection of their biological coin portents. The increasing ...
[EN] Multi-objective optimisation techniques have shown to be a useful tool for controller tuning applications. Such techniques are useful when: 1) it is difficult to find a controller with a desirable trade-off between ...
[EN] Fully bio-based materials based on thermoplastic starch (TPS) were developed starting from corn starch plasticized with glycerol. The obtained TPS was further blended with five pine resin derivatives: gum rosin (GR), ...
