Radiocarbon Dating for the Reconstruction of the 1717 CE Triolet Rock Avalanche in the Mont Blanc Massif, Italy

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Arp Nouva peat bog located in the upper Ferret Valley in the Mont Blanc massif was critically evaluated since published radiocarbon dates have led to controversial conclusions on the formation of this swamp. Radiocarbon dating of woody fragments from

Bioactivity of Nonedible Parts of Punica granatum L.: A Potential Source of Functional Ingredients

open access: yesInternational Journal of Food Science, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
Punica granatum L. has a long standing culinary and medicinal traditional use in Mauritius. This prompted a comparative study to determine the bioefficacy of the flower, peel, leaf, stem, and seed extracts of the Mauritian P. granatum. The flower and peel extracts resulting from organic solvent extraction exhibited strong antioxidant activities which ...

Development of a Control Banding Tool for Nanomaterials

open access: yesJournal of Nanomaterials, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Control banding (CB) can be a useful tool for managing the potential risks of nanomaterials. The here proposed CB, which should be part of an overall risk control strategy, groups materials by hazard and emission potential. The resulting decision matrix proposes control bands adapted to the risk potential levels and helps define an action plan. If this

Late Miocene high-angle faulting in the Cyclades: offshore–onshore tectonic studies and U-Pb calcite dating

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
Aegean extension began during Eocene-Oligocene times and led to the thinning of the upper plate into a retreating slab system. The style of extension during the Miocene remains controversial, with a majority of studies arguing for extension accommodated ...

Thermal evolution of a Variscan syn-orogenic intracontinental basin (Servoz basin, Western Alps): RSCM geothermometry and geochronology

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Geosciences, 2022
The Variscan basement of the Aiguilles-Rouges massif (Western Alps) exposes the Servoz syncline which consists of a metavolcano-sedimentary sequence composed of (i) a volcanic unit of unknown age and origin, (ii) Early Carboniferous sedimentary series ...

Beta-hydroxyphosphonate ribonucleoside analogues derived from 4-substituted-1,2,3-triazoles as IMP/GMP mimics: synthesis and biological evaluation

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2016
A series of seventeen β-hydroxyphosphonate ribonucleoside analogues containing 4-substituted-1,2,3-triazoles was synthesized and fully characterized. Such compounds were designed as potential inhibitors of the cytosolic 5’-nucleotidase II (cN-II), an ...

A mechanochemical approach to access the proline–proline diketopiperazine framework

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2017
Ball milling was exploited to prepare a substituted proline building block by mechanochemical nucleophilic substitution. Subsequently, the mechanocoupling of hindered proline amino acid derivatives was developed to provide proline–proline dipeptides ...

NCS1 overexpression restored mitochondrial activity and behavioral alterations in a zebrafish model of Wolfram syndrome

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2022
Wolfram syndrome (WS) is a rare neurodegenerative disease resulting in deafness, optic atrophy, diabetes, and neurological disorders. Currently, no treatment is available for patients. The mutated gene, WFS1, encodes an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protein,

“Lascivious Poison?” Street‐songs as a Source for Popular Expression: The Case of Jansenism, c. 1687–1737*

open access: yesJournal of Religious History, Volume 49, Issue 1, Page 21-40, March 2025.
Famed for its austerity, Jansenism nonetheless prompted a slew of salacious street‐songs throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. If historians have increasingly examined early modern urban singing practices, underlining the social porosity and intergenerational hold of many street‐songs, little research has been devoted to unpicking what ...
