      This paper reports a DFT modelling of SERS spectra for benzene and benzonitrile on the basis of a simple noncoordinate substrate-adsorbate model. Assignment of normal modes was obtained from internal force constants and ...
    • Toral Ponce, María; Rivas, Jorge; Sadías, Marta; Soto Salazar, César; Orellana, Sandra (SOC CHILENA QUIMICA, 2008-06)
      A rapid method for the simultaneous determination of acetaminophen (A) and tramadol (T) by second derivative spectrophotometric has been developed. From a solvent effect studies and the spectral behaviours of A and T, ...
    • Fernández, Eduardo J.; Laguna, Antonio; López de Luzuriaga, José M.; Monge, Miguel; Mendizábal Emaldía, Fernando (ELSEVIER, 2008)
      Model compounds are used to study the metallophilic attraction between gold and thallium atoms. Ab initio calculations on dimers and tetramers in different distributions of the minimal units are analyzed. An attraction is ...
    • Faure-André, Gabrielle; Vargas, Pablo; Yuseff, Maria-Isabel; Heuzé, Mélina; Diaz, Jheimmy; Lankar, Danielle; Steri, Veronica; Manry, Jeremy; Hugues, Stéphanie; Vascotto, Fulvia; Boulanger, Jérôme; Raposo, Graça; Bono Merino, María Rosa; Rosemblatt Silber, Mario César; Piel, Matthieu; Lennon Duménil, Ana María (AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2008-12-12)
      Dendritic cells ( DCs) sample peripheral tissues of the body in search of antigens to present to T cells. This requires two processes, antigen processing and cell motility, originally thought to occur independently. We ...
    • Fariña, José M.; Sepúlveda, M.; Reyna, M. V.; Wallem, K. P.; Ossa-Zazzali, P. G. (BLACKWELL, 2008-05)
      The movement of materials and organisms between ecosystems is a common process in nature. In the present study we investigate the hypothesis that the movement of consumers between ecosystems depends not only on the ...
    • Merino, Santiago; Vásquez Salfate, Rodrigo; Martínez, Javier; Celis Diez, Juan Luis; Martínez de la Fuente, Josué; Marín Vial, Paula; Sánchez Monsalvez, Inocencia; Peirce, Michael A. (BLACKWELL, 2008-12)
      The blood of 21 adult South American mouse opossums (Thylamys elegans) captured from April through August of 2005 in central Chile was examined for parasites. Light microscopic analysis of blood smears initially suggested ...
    • Merino, Santiago; Moreno, Juan; Vásquez Salfate, Rodrigo; Martínez, Javier; Sánchez Monsalvez, Inocencia; Estades Marfán, Cristián; Ippi, Silvina; Sabat Kirkwood, Alejandro Pablo; Rozzi, Ricardo; Mcgehee, Steven (BLACKWELL, 2008-05)
      The existence of latitudinal gradients in species richness and their abundance is known for many free living organisms but few cases have been reported for parasitic diseases. In addition, asymmetries between the Northern ...
    • Stange Klein, Claudia; Fuentes, Paulina; Handford, Michael; PIizarro, Lorena (SOC BIOLGIA CHILE, 2008)
      Carotenoids are synthesized in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. In plants and algae, these lipophilic molecules possess antioxidant properties acting as reactive oxygen species scavengers and exert functional roles ...
