Evaluation of the resistance of Acetobacter aceti to the major chemicals found ...

The wine industry generates between 0.2 and 4 L of wastewater per liter of wine produced, although this figure can exceed 14 L, depending on several factors. Wine effluent typically has high salinity and organic load, containing various organic compounds such as carboxylic acids, sugars, alcohols, and phenolic compounds. These compounds can inhibit microbial growth, compromising biological treatment processes. ...

Warthin’s Tumor: A Rare Case Report of a Bilateral Multifocal Parotid Tumor Ass...

Warthin’s tumor is the second most common benign neoplasm of the parotid gland and frequently presents with multifocal and bilateral involvement, either synchronously or metachronously, up to 20% - 30% of cases. More rarely, extraparotid locations may also occur. This case report describes a Warthin’s tumor presenting synchronously as a multifocal bilateral parotid tumor in association with an extraparotid loca...

Peças antropomórficas da necrópole megalítica de Alto de Madorras: abordagem pr...

The aim of this text is to present the preliminary results of an ongoing study of two anthropomorphic stone elements from the Alto das Madorras megalithic necropolis, in border between Murça and Alijó municipalities (Trás-os-Montes, Northern Portugal). The two stone elements are: an anthropomorphic orthostate-stelae from Dolmen 4 and a sub-rectangular granite slab from Dolmen 8, formerly referred to as an «idol...

Castro de Guifões: elementos para a reconstituição paleogeográfica e compreensã...

Documented since the middle of the 1st millennium BC, the occupation of Castro de Guifões extended to the ancient Leça estuary. The GUIFARQ Research Project has sought to clarify the importance of the site's relationship with the river and the Atlantic, attested by archaeological materials and described in historiographic sources. A research program at the intersection of Archaeology and Fluvial Geomorphology c...

Dual critic conditional wasserstein gAN for height-map generation

Traditionally, video-game maps are either made by hand, requiring many man-hours to produce good results, or made using Procedural Content Generation (PCG) techniques, which rely on a predetermined algorithm to generate every feature of the map. More recent studies have tried an approach using Deep Learning algorithms, which have their own limitations, in particular taking away the creative freedom of the desig...

Efficiency of Early Ureteric Stenting for Urosepsis Associated with Urinary Tra...

Introduction: Our objective was to evaluate the differences between the early or delayed placement of the ureteral stent in patients with urosepsis associated with urinary tract lithiasis. Material and Methods: Retrospective review of patients admitted to our institution between 2011 and 2015 with the diagnosis of urosepsis associated with urinary tract calculi, having ureteral stent placement. Early and delaye...

Toward spinning greener advanced silk fibers by feeding silkworms with nanomate...

Silk has been used in several biomedical applications, including tissue engineering, drug delivery systems, biomedical implants, and diagnostic medical devices, due to its attractive intrinsic properties such as biocompatibility, controllable biodegradability, and excellent mechanical properties. In recent years, several attempts have been made to produce silk fibers with improved properties and new functionali...
