One of the recurring topics in Latin American debates refers to the dynamics of accumulation and the current models of development. Critical categories such as Extractivism or Neoextractivism, as well as pro-positive ones like Buen Vivir, Common Goods, Rights of Nature, Post-extractivism, among others, traverse social struggles and debates, and are generating a new political grammar that questi...

a facile and simple method was proposed to control the size and shape of the mgo nano structures with high surface area in the presence of efficient and cheap templates like peg 200, peg 600, peg 4000 and sorbitol at low temperature within a little time. nano rods and nanoparticles have been achieved by applying these templates and altering other growth parameters. the products were characteriz...

Population of aggregation-prone conformers for the monomeric amyloid-β (Aβ) can dramatically speed up its fibrillar aggregation. In this work, we study the effect of preformed template on the conformational distributions of the monomeric Aβ by replica exchange molecular dynamics. Our results show that the template consisting of Aβ peptides with cross-β structure can induce the formation of β-ri...

bone like hydroxyapatite (nhap) was synthesized via an in situ biomimetic process in presence of wheat starch. the effect of polymer concentration alteration on the final structure of nhap was investigated. formation of the nhap at room temperature was confirmed by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir). size and morphology of the nhap samples were character...

Some new macrocyclic dibenzotrioxadiamides, dibenzotetraoxadiamide, dibenzopentaoxadiamide, dibenzothiatrioxadiamide, tribenzotrioxadiamides and tetrabenzohexaoxadiamide (14-21), (26) and (27) have been prepared. These compounds were obtained in the macrocyclization step by reacting the diamine (4) with appropriak dicaxboxylic acid dichlorides (5-13) and (24). The cyclization does not requ...

cr2o3 nanoparticles were prepared using cr(no3)3.9h2o as starting material, triethanolamine (tea) as template and water as green solvent under microwave irradiation. the products were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), transmission electron microscopy (tem), fourier transform infrared (ft-ir), photoluminescence (pl) and raman spectroscopy. the size distribution of individual particles we...

Some new macrocyclic dibenzotetraoxadiamides, tribenzotetraoxadimides, tribenzopentaoxadiamide, tribenzohexaoxadiamide, and tetrabenzoheptaoxadiamide 15-22 have been prepared. These compounds were obtained in the macrocyclization step by reacting the diamines 6 and 7 with appropriate dicarboxylic acid dichlorides 8-14. The cyclization does not require high dilution techniques or template ef...
