Synthetic Melatoninergic Ligands: Achievements and Prospects

TesisLa investigación que se presenta tiene como objetivo principal analizar las ventajas competitivas de las empresas representativas de bebidas gaseosas en el Perú durante el periodo 2015-2016. Se trabajó con un diseño de investigación no experimental porque la variable no se ve afectada por la investigación a estudiar, el tipo de diseño es transversal porque se ciñe al estudio en un tiempo determinado; descriptiva porque solo se realizó el análisis y descripción de las teorías de las ventajas competitivas en las empresas representativas de bebidas gaseosas en el Perú durante el periodo 2015-2016 y cualitativo porque se basa en recolección de datos sin medición numérica como el análisis documental, memoria anual y entrevistas de profundidad a colaboradores estratégicos de las empresas Arca Continental Lindley y Aje Group

Non-obvious Problems in Clark Electrode Application at Elevated Temperature and Ways of Their Elimination

Well-known cause of frequent failures of closed oxygen sensors is the appearance of gas bubbles in the electrolyte. The problem is traditionally associated with insufficient sealing of the sensor that is not always true. Study of a typical temperature regime of measurement system based on Clark sensor showed that spontaneous release of the gas phase is a natural effect caused by periodic warming of the sensor to a temperature of the test liquid. The warming of the sensor together with the incubation medium causes oversaturation of electrolyte by dissolved gases and the allocation of gas bubbles. The lower rate of sensor heating in comparison with the medium reduces but does not eliminate the manifestation of this effect. It is experimentally established, that with each cycle of heating of measuring system up to 37 ∘ C followed by cooling the volume of gas phase in the electrolyte (KCl; 60 g/L; 400 L) increased by 0.6 L approximately. Thus, during just several cycles it can dramatically degrade the characteristics of the sensor. A method was developed in which the oxygen sensor is heated in contact with the liquid, (depleted of dissolved gases), allowing complete exclusion of the above-mentioned effect

False Oxygen Consumption Effect and Factors Causing It

False oxygen consumption effect characterized by a decrease of the polarographic sensor readings by the introduction of neutral microadditives into the incubation medium was modeled and tested. These neutral microadditives neither consume oxygen nor cause its consumption by other components of the medium. It is shown that microadditives less than 3% of the volume of incubation medium can cause statistically significant effect of false oxygen consumption more than 4% of the initial oxygen content. The effect can reach more than 15% at higher volumes of additives. The most important properties of additives enhancing the effect are low oxygen content, low temperature, and low concentration of oxygen salting out components
