In this paper calculations of the adsorption of nitrogen, methane and hydrogen on carbonaceous surfaces that have different curvatures are presented. The density functional theory (DFT) was used including a functional PW91PW91 along with a set of 6-31G basis (d, p). The results were adjusted to the potential of 12-6 Lennard-Jones to get the interaction parameters. The parameters of the 12-6 Lennard-Jones potential show no important dependency on the curvature of the nanotubes in the range considered in this study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective was to determine to what extent the nitrogen and energy balance in the nutritional state of the children related to Chronic Renal Insufficiency in treatment of Peritoneal Dialysis. The study is of descriptive and co relational type. The population taken was that of 24 children in treatment of peritoneal dialysis in the area of nephrology from Bloom Hospital, who were studied to calculate the nitrogen and energy balance, as well as seric and Albumen examinations. The results showed that the children have different loss of proteins although they belong to the same etáreo group and also that their weight coincide since the protein loss seem increased due to the presence of peritonitis, uremia, frequency and quality of the dialysis treatment. This study has shown that the nitrogen balance has an impact on the nutritional state, but to obtain a nutritional improvement, the intake must be far beyond the value obtained in Catabolic Protein Rate. Since it was observed that although in some cases the ingestion was greater than the rate of protein catabolism, it was not sufficient to contribute to an improvement in the nutritional state and an increase of weight was not obtained.

Independently from the faith that one practices, it can be strongly affirmed that the Bible as a book, is abundant in lessons for daily life, which can well be applied to the areas of action of transverse axes that the educational curricula sets out to work on. These lessons appear when we specially look at the books of the prophets, the sapience literature (Psalms, Proverbs, and Ecclesiastes.), the Pauline letters, pastoral letters and/or the apostolic letters. But, for this work, the subject has been confined to the lessons of the gospel of Jesus. For that reason the objective of this writing is to establish a direct relation between the educational curricula and the gospel of Jesus Christ, in such a way that the pertinence of both elements demonstrate, for the establishment of good and healthy interpersonal relations in today's society.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of extracts from Brassica oleracea vars. capitata, gemmifera, italica, and acephala on growth of mycelial strands of Phymatotrichum omnivora and to determine the relationship between extract antifungal activity and extract sulphur content. The in vitro antifungal activity of crude extracts from varieties of Brassica was evaluated in a diffusion bioassay using potato-dextrose-agar medium, measuring growth emerged from mycelial strands. Sulphur content in crude extracts was evaluated using the lead-sulfur formation technique. The extract from Brassica oleracea var. gemmifera completely inhibited growth of mycelial strands at a concentration of 10 mg/mL; the extract from B. oleracea var. capitata gave 18% inhibition at the same concentration. The rest of the extracts from Brassica varieties did not affect fungal growth. A high correlation between extract antifungal activity and sulphur content was observed, which suggests that the greater sulphur content, the greater activity of extracts from Brassica against P. omnivora.
