Crustal Structure Beneath Mexico City From Joint Inversion of Receiver Functions and Dispersion Curves

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 128, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Over the years, it has been clear to seismologists that the crustal structure beneath Mexico City is highly complex. This fact may influence the seismic waves' behavior when traveling through it. Consequently, many studies have been done to understand this crustal structure.

Analysis of plant secondary metabolism using stable isotope‐labelled precursors

open access: yesPhytochemical Analysis, Volume 32, Issue 1, Page 62-68, January/February 2021., 2021
Abstract Introduction Analysis of biochemical pathways typically involves feeding a labelled precursor to an organism, and then monitoring the metabolic fate of the label. Initial studies used radioisotopes as a label and then monitored radioactivity in the metabolic products.

Airborne geoid determination [PDF]

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2014
Airborne geoid mapping techniques may provide the opportunity to improve the geoid over vast areas of the Earth, such as polar areas, tropical jungles and mountainous areas, and provide an accurate “seam-less” geoid model across most coastal regions. Determination of the geoid by airborne methods relies on the development of airborne gravimetry, which ...

Geoid or Quasi-Geoid? A Short Comparison

open access: yes, 2023
AbstractThis article is a short introduction to the debate on choosing the geoid and orthometric heights or the quasi-geoid and normal heights as the vertical coordinate system. It mainly compiles some more or less already known facts for comparing the two systems.

A Chilean Berry Concentrate Protects against Postprandial Oxidative Stress and Increases Plasma Antioxidant Activity in Healthy Humans

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
This study formulated and characterized an antioxidant‐rich concentrate of berries (BPC‐350) produced in Chile, which was used to perform a crossover study aimed at determining the effect of the berries on the modulation of plasma postprandial oxidative stress and antioxidant status.

Medicinal Plants from North and Central America and the Caribbean Considered Toxic for Humans: The Other Side of the Coin

open access: yesEvidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
The consumption of medicinal plants has notably increased over the past two decades. People consider herbal products as safe because of their natural origin, without taking into consideration whether these plants contain a toxic principle. This represents a serious health problem.

Cytoprotective Mechanisms Mediated by Polyphenols from Chilean Native Berries against Free Radical‐Induced Damage on AGS Cells

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
The prevalence of cytoprotective mechanisms induced by polyphenols such as activation of intracellular antioxidant responses (ICM) and direct free radical scavenging was investigated in native Chilean species of strawberries, raspberries, and currants.

Bioassay Directed Isolation and Biological Evaluation of Compounds Isolated from Rubus fairholmianus Gard.

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The in vitro and in silico analysis of Rubus fairholmianus acetone extract for antioxidant, antiproliferative, and anti‐inflammatory activity led to the isolation of six compounds. Amongst all the six isolated compounds tested, 1‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐4‐methylpentan‐1‐one (compound 1) and 2‐[(3‐methylbutoxy) carbonyl] benzoic acid (compound 2) were found ...
