Seguridad e interacciones de los Inhibidores de la Bomba de Protones (IBP)
Los IBP han demostrado ser fármacos relativamente seguros después de muchos años de una amplia utilización. Las reacciones adversas con las que más frecuentemente se han asociado son leves y con escasa repercusión clínica. Inducen hipergastrinemia pero esta no se ha relacionado con una capacidad para inducir lesiones malignas Parece que pueden facilitar determinadas infecciones bacterianas a nivel digestivo y del aparato respiratorio, aunque este hecho no limita su prescripción dada la facilidad de su tratamiento.
Desde el punto de vista farmacocinético se han descrito la posibilidad de interacciones con otros fármacos a nivel del citocromo P450, pero ello no parece tener mayor trascendencia clínica y terapéutica en general. Sin embargo, recientemente se está incidiendo por las agencias reguladoras en la hipotética interacción de los IBP (sobre todo omeprazol) con el clopidogrel generando una reducción en su efecto antiagregante. Aunque se debe seguir esta recomendación, necesitaria ser evaluado de forma específica para poder determinar su realidad clínica y las posibles alternativas existentes en los pacientes con riesgo de sangrado gastrointestinal.
En último lugar se revisa su administración en situaciones especiales, objeto de discusión, como en la mujer embarazada o durante la lactancia materna

Compositionally and density stratified igneous terrain in Jezero crater, Mars
Before Perseverance, Jezero crater's floor was variably hypothesized to have a lacustrine, lava, volcanic airfall, or aeolian origin. SuperCam observations in the first 286 Mars days on Mars revealed a volcanic and intrusive terrain with compositional and density stratification.The dominant lithology along the traverse is basaltic, with plagioclase enrichment in stratigraphically higher locations. Stratigraphically lower, layered rocks are richer in normative pyroxene. The lowest observed unit has the highest inferred density and is olivine-rich with coarse (1.5 millimeters) euhedral, relatively unweathered grains, suggesting a cumulate origin. This is the first martian cumulate and shows similarities to martian meteorites, which also express olivine disequilibrium. Alteration materials including carbonates, sulfates, perchlorates, hydrated silicates, and iron oxides are pervasive but low in abundance, suggesting relatively brief lacustrine conditions. Orbital observations link the Jezero floor lithology to the broader Nili-Syrtis region, suggesting that density-driven compositional stratification is a regional characteristic.Funding was provided by the following sources: NASA's Mars exploration program, including contracts NNH15AZ24I and NNH13ZDA018O to LANL.

Size-Controlled Water-Soluble Ag Nanoparticles
Ag nanoparticles of two different sizes (1 and 4 nm) were prepared within an apoferritin cavity by using an Ag+-loaded apoferritin as a nanoconfined environment for their construction. The initial amount of Ag' ions injected in the apoferritin cavity dictates the size of the final Ag particles. The protein shell prevents bulk aggregation of the metal particles, which renders them water soluble and extremely stable
Use of portable devices and confocal Raman spectrometers at different wavelength to obtain the spectral information of the main organic components in tomatoes (Solanum Lycopersicum) fruits
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit samples, in two ripening stages, ripe (red) and unripe (green), collected from a cultivar in the North of Spain (Barrika, Basque Country), were analyzed directly, without any sample pretreatment, with two different Raman instruments (portable spectrometer coupled to a micro-videocamera and a confocal Raman microscope), using two different laser excitation wavelengths (514 and 785 nm, only for the confocal microscope). The combined use of these laser excitation wavelengths allows obtaining, in a short period of time, the maximum spectral information about the main organic compounds present in this fruit. The major identified components of unripe tomatoes were cutin and cuticular waxes. On the other hand, the main components on ripe tomatoes were carotenes, polyphenoles and polysaccharides. Among the carotenes, it was possible to distinguish the presence of lycopene from b-carotene with the help of both excitation wavelengths, but specially using the 514 nm one, which revealed specific overtones and combination tones of this type of carotene.This work has been financially supported by Research Project S-PE11-UN128 of the Basque Country government.
