Nowadays mono- and multicrystalline silicon have the highest market share of all PV technologies but thin film solar cells based on CdTe or Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) absorbers recently show promising high power conversion ...
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disease, accounting for 30% of all non-Hodgkin lymphoma cases. Although the addition of rituximab to standard treatment (CHOP: cyclophosphamide, ...
[eng] Epigenetic mechanisms play a vital role in gene expression regulation and phenotype determination. This thesis aimed to comprehensively investigate the transcriptome, the methylome and the influence of intrinsic (such ...
The general aim of this PhD thesis was to study, develop and apply different breeding techniques in melon species in order to produce new commercial cultivars. The three specific objectives of this thesis are: 1. To ...
The present doctoral thesis is framed in the research and development (R & D) project between a private biotechnology company of molecular diagnostics Genomica SAU, the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC), the ...
El estudio de muestras de pintura persigue diferentes objetivos. Por un lado, identificar los materiales y técnica de la pintura de una época y por lo tanto el know-how de un período histórico. Por otra parte, estudiar la ...
[eng] Heat, moisture, gas, and momentum exchanges at the oceanic and atmospheric interface modulate, inter alia, the Earth’s heat and carbon budgets, global circulation, and dynamical modes. Sea surface winds are fundamental ...
Olive oil (OO) is a highly appreciated food product due to its nutritional value and organoleptic properties, marketed worldwide. In spite of being one of the most regulated food products, its high economic value becomes ...
In the brain events happen in the scale of milliseconds, and the fine processes of neurons and neuroglia are highly compartmentalized at a microscopic level. These exclusive features of the brain define extremely precise ...
Metabolism is a hallmark of life and underlies most biological processes in both health and disease. For instance, dysregulation of liver metabolism underlies multifactorial disorders such as diabetes or obesity. Similarly, ...
Multifunctional polymeric nanoparticles (NP) represent a promising alternative for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases using the intravenous route (i.v.). In current treatments, the effects of the intravenously ...
Malaria is arguably one of the main medical concerns worldwide because of the numbers of people affected, the severity of the disease, and the complexity of the life cycle of its causative agent, the protozoan Plasmodium ...
Nowadays in the world there is a very big problem associated with two factors related to each other. The first factor is the increase in the resistant of certain bacteria, especially the bacteria from the ESKPAE group. The ...
1. It was observed that the interaction of imines and isocyanides in the presence of a Lewis acid can lead to a variety of scaffolds including α-aminoamides, α-aminoamidines, indoles and diiminoazetidines. The reaction ...
The known as "difficult peptides", as well as those sequences that aggregate in solution, are some of those molecules with high applicability as nanomaterials or even in medicine field. This thesis has addressed to overcome ...
This thesis focuses on the search for new methodologies for the direct, stereoselective and catalytic formation of carbon-carbon bonds through the formation of chiral nickel(II) enolate species and the application of such ...
[eng] The aim of this thesis has been two-fold. First, to develop new processing and analysis tools and strategies for extracting information from EELS data, and second, to apply the methods to different nanoparticle systems ...
Flow cells are on their way to become a key player for electrical energy storage (EES) thanks to their suitability as load-levelling devices thus contributing to the development of smart grid and to offset the intermittency ...
[eng] Nanomedicine is one of the cutting-edge fields in most of medical applications, specially, in oncology. The possibility to selectively vehiculize and specifically release a wide range of anticancer compounds gained ...
Detailed modelling of the present-day lithospheric structure is of paramount importance to understand the evolution of the Earth in the context of plate tectonics. The objectives of this thesis are twofold: the development ...
