Barrera Vilarmau, Susana (Date of defense: 2022-03-15)
La abrazadera deslizante eucariota (PCNA), juega un papel esencial como componente del replisoma. PCNA, de forma toroidal, rodea el DNA y ata las polimerasas y otros factores a la plantilla genómica para una síntesis ...
Vega Domínguez, Lorena (Date of defense: 2021-12-21)
Nanoparticles are highly relevant for catalysis due to their nanostructure, which increases the fraction of surface atoms, and the size dependent morphology and properties. Catalytic properties of nanoalloys also depend ...
García Vara, Manuel (Date of defense: 2023-06-13)
[eng] This doctoral thesis aims at providing novel analytical tools for the environmental control of CECs in waters and crops and generating new knowledge about i) the occurrence and fate of CECs in the agricultural ...
Matencio Lloberas, Sonia (Date of defense: 2015-10-29)
Organic/inorganic interfaces play a key role in organic electronic devices such as organic light emitting diodes (OLED), organic field effect transistors (OFET) and organic solar cells (OSC). In these interfaces crucial ...
Otero Rodríguez, Ana Mª (Date of defense: 2023-11-28)
[eng] Meat industry and particularly pig slaughterhouses produce huge amounts of animal by- products not intended for human consumption. This residual stream appears as a potential raw material for anaerobic digestion and ...
Peña Herrera, Juan Manuel (Date of defense: 2020-05-04)
En la presente tesis doctoral se desarrollaron métodos analíticos para la determinación de fármacos de uso humanos en el tejido muscular de los peces, incluyendo la comparación y optimización de diferentes tipos de ...
Casas Papell, Gemma (Date of defense: 2022-07-19)
Since the industrial revolution, we have introduced thousands or tens of thousands of new synthetic compounds, originating a new environmental perturbation in the Earth’s system. Among these, there are the so-called ...
Zhang, Xin (Date of defense: 2015-07-07)
This Thesis deals with the resolution of hyperspectral imaging data by using chemometric methods, in particular by using appropriate data pretreatment methods and by using Multivariate Curve Resolution (MCR) methods. The ...
Gorrochategui Matas, Eva (Date of defense: 2018-04-20)
Lipidomics is a subset of metabolomics, which in turn, is one of the categorical platforms that constitute omics. Omic sciences aim at the study of the abundance and (or) structural characterization of a broad range of ...
Garrido Domínguez, Beatriz (Date of defense: 2022-06-22)
Bone tissue has an excellent healing response, recovering functional and structural properties when damaged. Notwithstanding, severe damage to the bone implies the need for surgery to recover. Different orthopaedic devices ...
Schirinzi, Gabriella Francesca (Date of defense: 2020-06-10)
In recent decades, global plastics production and consumption have continued to increase. Although many policy strategies on waste prevention and recycling have been implemented, much of the plastic waste is dispersed in ...
Guixer, Bernat (Date of defense: 2014-03-31)
The blood-brain barrier (888) is a biological barrier that plays a crucial role protecting the brain from neurotoxic agents and regulating the influx and efflux of molecules required for the correct function of this organ. ...
Pereira de Magalhaes e Couto, Miguel (Date of defense: 2014-11-10)
