[en] The cryopreservation of semen in fish, as in many species even shows effects that decrease sperm quality and directly engage cell ability to successfully participate in the processes of fertilization and embryonic development. the characteristics such as mobility and fertilizing capacity of fertilization of sperm are considered to be quality criteria that allow to measure the success or failure of the process, since they are considered integrative variables, being indicators that depend not on a single factor, but on the stability and welfare of all structures, enzymes and subcellular functional compounds that give place to these spermatic characteristics. membrane damage (Adenylate cyclase, ion channels, grouping of other proteins, among others) and their implication in the route of signaling pathway leading to spermatic activation, ATP degradation and fragmentation of nuclear and mitochondrial DNA (genome), degradation of kinase enzymes and other cytosolic proteins (proteome) are considered today, as some of the molecular factors that most affect during cryopreservation and markedly decreasing the fertilizing capacity and mobility of sperm in fish. Proposals on the molecular mechanisms, by which these subcellular factors interact and act as consequence of cryopreservation, are some of the topics covered in this review. Understanding the principles and factors that are involved in the origin of such damages, will allow to improved cryopreservation processes, making them less harmful and more efficient.

[en] Littoral macrophytes from the La Fe reservoir (El Retiro, Antioquia) were sampled for ostracoda during June and September of 2008. This allowed the identification of four genera and six species of ostracoda belonging to the Cyprididae and Candonidae families, where Chlamydotheca and Cypridopsis were found to be the dominant genera. Chlamydotheca unispinosa was the most abundant species in the assemblage. Furthermore, the environmental variables: temperature, electric conductivity, dissolved oxygen, and pH were also measured, in order to establish their relation to ostracoda taxa, using Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA). Results confirm the cosmopolitan character of Cypridopsis vidua and evidence the importance of plant substrate on the occurrence and distribution of the Cyprididae family. The possible application of the recorded ostracoda assemblage in paleoenvironmental interpretations is discussed.

[en] The RTS-1 ''Galileo Galilei'' is an open pool research reactor with light water as moderator and coolant; it has a nominal power of 5 MWth. It went critical for the first time on April 1963 and it was definitely shutdown in March 1980. The RTS-1 is located in the “Centro Interforze Studi per la Applicazioni Militari” (CISAM) in San Piero a Grado (Pisa). This paper concerns the first phase of the decommissioning project which consists of the removal of the reactor pool water and the dismantling of all the submerged metallic components among others elements present in the reactor building.

[en] A 56 years old woman with systemic sclerosis consult by rapidly progressive deterioration of his pulmonary and renal function developing a superposition syndrome with systemic lupus erythematosus, unusual presentation that respond to high doses of corticosteroid and ciclophos- phamide. This is the first reported case in the literature of a superposition syndrome that begins with systemic sclerosis. The clinical finding, immunologic profile and its possible association are discussed

[en] Polymyalgia rheumatica is a disorder with defined clinical characteristics and may be the initial expression or to be associated to other diseases. Although it is not associated to neoplastic diseases, may be their initial manifestation. We report a patient who presented the initial complaining of polymyalgia rheumatica as a manifestation of another illness, amyloidosis associated to multiple myeloma. We also discuss the clinical characteristics of these entities and revised the available literature with regard to this association

[en] Since reliable program execution is necessary for the experiment integrity, new Fault Tolerant Local Monitoring Control (FTLMC) board for high energy particle detectors was developed to operate in harsh environments, taking into account the challenges that high energy physics experiments represent, a Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) Micro Controller (MC), previously tested in accelerated particle beam, was populated in such board. The MC is the TMS570 conceived for safety and critical applications. The FTLMC provide the necessary interfaces such as SPI, I2C, CAN bus and others for detector parameter surveillance in experimental physics applications. Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS), a commonly used SCADA for physics experiments, is ported to the MC where pre-built specific mechanisms are used to apply redundancy to programs executing with insignificant amount of CPU overhead.

[en] Nuclear muon capture on the proton and 3 He is considered both within and beyond the standard model in terms as general as is possible. Explicit and precise analytic expressions for all possible observables are given, assuming only a Dirac neutrino in the limit of vanishing mass. These results allow both for precision tests of the standard model and new physics, as well as for the assessment of the potential physics reach of experiments designed to measure specific observables. Using these expressions, stringent constraints can already be inferred from a recent precision measurement of the statistical capture rate on 3 He. Likewise, similar constraints should follow the completion of a precision measurement in progress of the singlet capture rate on the proton
