Comúnmente es normal escuchar que las empresas que quieren obtener resultados diferentes deben de actuar de manera diferente, adoptando nuevas y mejores prácticas que les permitan enfrentar las nuevas exigencias del mercado y alcanzar los objetivos trazados. Todo esto en cabeza de los líderes de las organizaciones, quienes junto con sus empleados deben de generar nuevas estrategias que les permitan tener una trasformación positiva hacia el desarrollo de nuevas competencias y mejora de sus procesos tanto internos como externos. Incluso si estos no se manejan de manera presencial y gracias a los avances tecnológicos se manejan de manera remota o a distancia. Introducción Tesis Conclusión Referencias bibliográficas It is common to hear that companies that want to obtain different results must act differently, adopting new and better practices that allow them to face the new demands of the market and achieve the objectives set. All this at the head of the leaders of the organizations, who together with their employees must generate new strategies that allow them to have a positive transformation towards the development of new skills and improvement of their internal and external processes. Even if these are not handled in person and thanks to technological advances they are handled remotely or remotely.

The use of fossil fuels has been strongly related to critical problems currently affecting society, such as: global warming, global greenhouse effects and pollution. These problems have affected the homeostasis of living organisms worldwide at an alarming rate. Due to this, it is imperative to look for alternatives to the use of fossil fuels and one of the relevant substitutes are biofuels. There are different types of biofuels (categories and generations) that have been previously explored, but recently, the use of microalgae has been strongly considered for the production of biofuels since they present a series of advantages over other biofuel production sources: (a) they don’t need arable land to grow and therefore do not compete with food crops (like biofuels produced from corn, sugar cane and other plants) and; (b) they exhibit rapid biomass production containing high oil contents, at least 15 to 20 times higher than land based oleaginous crops. Hence, these unicellular photosynthetic microorganisms have received great attention from researches to use them in the large-scale production of biofuels. However, one disadvantage of using microalgae is the high economic cost due to the low-yields of lipid content in the microalgae biomass. Thus, development of different methods to enhance microalgae biomass, as well as lipid content in the microalgae cells, would lead to the development of a sustainable low-cost process to produce biofuels. Within the last 10 years, many studies have reported different methods and strategies to induce lipid production to obtain higher lipid accumulation in the biomass of microalgae cells; however, there is not a comprehensive review in the literature that highlights, compares and discusses these strategies. Here, we review these strategies which include modulating light intensity in cultures, controlling and varying CO2 levels and temperature, inducing nutrient starvation in the culture, the implementation of stress by incorporating heavy metal or inducing a high salinity condition, and the use of metabolic and genetic engineering techniques coupled with nanotechnology.

Microwave-assisted extraction is compared with a more classical technique, Soxhlet extraction, to determine the content of triterpene acids in olive skins. The samples used in their original unmilled state and milled were extracted with ethyl acetate or methanol as solvents. The optimized operating conditions (e.g., amount and type of solvent, and time and temperature of extractions) to attain the better extraction yields have been established. For the identification and quantitation of the target compounds, an ultra high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry method was employed. The best results were achieved using the microwave-assisted extraction technique, which was much faster than the Soxhlet extraction method, and showed higher efficiency in the extraction of the triterpenic acids (oleanolic and maslinic).
