El objetivo de este artículo es describir el proceso de creación y diseño de la base de datos terminológica para la traducción enallterm. Este recurso terminológico, de libre acceso, está dirigido a ...los estudiantes de traducción de la Escuela Nacional de Lenguas, Lingüística y Traducción (enallt) de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, pero también a usuarios externos interesados en la actividad de traducción. Este estudio interdisciplinario, basado en la teoría comunicativa de la terminología, de María Teresa Cabré, y en la lexicografía funcional, de Sven Tarp, se plantea suplir las deficiencias terminológicas que puede tener un traductor durante el proceso traductor. La metodología integra los trabajos de terminología de los estudiantes del Diplomado en Traducción de Textos Especializados de la enallt y de la Licenciatura en Traducción de la misma escuela. A través de la plataforma de enallterm, los alumnos pueden rellenar los diferentes campos de las fichas, en una combinación lingüística inglés, francés o alemán al español. Luego, las fichas pasan por un proceso de revisión externo, efectuado por un especialista en el ámbito temático en cuestión, y por una revisión interna, de tipo lingüístico, que la hacer el equipo de enallterm. Las fichas se centran en recopilar información traductológica como, por ejemplo, tipos de equivalentes, contextos de uso y contextos multimedia (fotos, audios, videos), opciones de traducción no recomendadas y comentarios para la traducción.

El objetivo de esta Tesis doctoral es identificar las unidades de conocimiento especializado del derecho de extranjería con el fin de ...representar la relación de la equivalencia en un diccionario bilingüe español-rumano para la traducción jurídica. Partimos de la premisa que el perfil del usuario y la situación de traducción determinan el tipo de unidades léxicas y la forma de representación de la equivalencia. Para ello, hemos sistematizado las necesidades lexicográficas del traductor jurídico rumano que nos ha permitido establecer las unidades de conocimiento especializado (UCE), como unidades útiles en una situación de traducción jurídica, debido a su condición cognitiva y pragmática. La identificación y extracción de las unidades de conocimiento especializado del corpus de referencia se basa en el concepto de palabra clave establecido según tres parámetros: frecuencia, posición destacable y representatividad conceptual. Un análisis contrastivo de una muestra de UCE a partir de sus características esenciales y complementarias revela una relación de equivalencia parcial que representamos lexicográficamente a través de diversos elementos informativos seleccionados en función del usuario y su situación de comunicación.
The aim of this dissertation is to identify the specialized knowledge units of Immigration law and to represent the relationship of equivalence in Spanish-Romanian bilingual dictionary for legal translation. I start from the premise that the user´s profile and the situations of translation process determine the type of lexical units and the form adopted by equivalence. As such, I have conducted a survey and systematized the lexicographical needs of the Romanian legal translator. The analysis established that the specialized knowledge units can be used as units for legal translation, due to their cognitive and pragmatic condition. The identification and extraction of specialized knowledge units from a reference corpus is based on the concept of keyword set according to three parameters: frequency, remarkable position and conceptual representation. I analyzed and compared the essential and complementary characteristics of a sample of specialized units that reveals a partial equivalence relation between them. Finally, I focus on the relationship of equivalence in the Spanish-Romanian bilingual dictionary for legal translation by looking at the user and the particular communication situation.
Honey adulteration generates low quality products on the market. The study aimed to find a simple, specific and less time-consuming method than standard melissopalynology only, for monitoring honey ...botanical and geographical origin. In this study 42 honey samples from different sources were examined for their botanical origin by using melissopalynology and their specific protein patterns by electrophoresis on SDS polyacrylamide gels (SDS-PAGE). The melissopalynological analysis consisted of counting all melliferous pollen, non-melliferous pollen and honeydew elements to identify the species of pollen present in each sample. The honey samples had predominant pollen from Apiaceae, Boraginaceae, Brassicaceae, Compositae H, Fabaceae (Trifolium sp.) and Fagaceae family. From the Fagaceae family, the most important species was Castanea sativa Mill., while the Boraginaceae was represented by Echium sp. and Myosotis sp. SDS-PAGE showed that the different origin honeys shared protein bands between 45 and 85 kDa (animal origin proteins, i.e. major royal jelly proteins, enzymes) and that specific proteins (presumably plant origin proteins) can be attributed to individual honey types. This study shows that the combination of melissopalynology and SDS-PAGE is a useful tool for modern discrimination between different kinds of honey, even without performing specific protein identification.
•Honeys of different origin share protein bands between 45 and 85 kDa.•Specific proteins can be attributed to individual honey types.•Floral origin and its associated proteins can be used for honey identification.•Melissopalynological analysis proved to be significant for accurate honey labeling.•Cluster analysis can discriminate honeys based on their geographic and botanical origin.
: primary thyroid lymphoma (PTL) is a rare neoplasm, displaying a variety of histological features. It is often a challenge for pathologists to diagnose this tumor.
: this study is a retrospective ...analysis of clinical and pathological characteristics of a group of eleven patients (eight women and three men, mean age 68 years, range 50-80 years) diagnosed with PTL.
: nine patients (81.81%) presented a tumor with progressive growth in the anterior cervical region, usually painless and accompanied by local compressive signs. Histologically, we identified six cases (55%) of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, three cases (27%) of extranodal marginal zone lymphoma, one case (9%) of follicular lymphoma, and one case (9%) of mixed follicular-diffuse lymphoma. PTL was associated with microscopic Hashimoto autoimmune thyroiditis in ten cases (90.9%). Ten patients (90.9%) presented with localized disease (stage I-IIE). A percentage of 60% of patients survived over 5 years. We observed an overall longer survival in patients under 70 years of age.
: PTL represents a diagnosis that needs to be taken into account, especially in women with a history of Hashimoto autoimmune thyroiditis, presenting a cervical tumor with progressive growth. PTL is a lymphoid neoplasia with favorable outcome, with relatively long survival if it is diagnosed at younger ages.
The current study was carried out to monitor the dynamics of phenolic compounds and vitamin C variations in Hippophae rhamnoides L. (sea buckthorn) under the influence of different color filters, as ...follows: yellow (590 nm), blue (450 nm), and violet (400 nm). The fruits were harvested at maturity from different parts of the canopy (i.e., base, middle, and top), immediately stored at −18 °C, and afterward lyophilized to reduce the loss of compounds for preparing the chemical assays that were carried out. HPLC-DAD-ESI+ was used to determine the phenolic compounds and vitamin C content of the fruits. EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance) measurements were also carried out to confirm the antioxidant character of the berries. This is the first study to examine the effect of different color filters on the accumulation of phenolic compounds and vitamin C content in the fruits of sea buckthorn. Among the three color filters used, the violet filter proved to be the most beneficial for the accumulation of total phenolic compounds (3.326 mg/g) and vitamin C (1.550 mg/g) in the berries. To reach high contents of phenolic compounds and vitamin C, the best setup included using very-high-energy emission LEDs as close as possible to blue and violet (400–450 nm). Therefore, the different light color intensities and temperatures on each level of a canopy play key roles in enhancing the phenolic compound content, antioxidant activity, and vitamin C content of sea buckthorn fruits. This knowledge will help provide insights into the accumulation of secondary metabolites and improve future production strategies in sea buckthorn.
A series of thiazolyl–catechol compounds with antioxidant and cytotoxic activities were synthesized by a Hantzsch heterocyclization, using diverse thioamides as the thiocarbonyl component and ...4-chloroacetyl-catechol as haloketone. These compounds were characterized by MS, IR spectroscopy, and NMR. Their antioxidant potential was evaluated by antiradical, electron transfer, and ferrous ion chelation assays using ascorbic acid, Trolox, and EDTA-Na2 as references. The cytotoxicity of the synthesized compounds was evaluated on two different cell types, normal human foreskin fibroblasts (BJ) and human pulmonary malignant cells (A549), using gefitinib as a reference anticancer drug. The results obtained from the tests highlighted compounds 3g and 3h with significant antioxidant activities. The highest cytotoxic potency against A549 cells was exhibited by compounds 3i and 3j, while compound 3g demonstrated exceptional selectivity on malignant cells compared to gefitinib. These promising results encourage further investigation into targeted modifications on position 2 of the thiazole ring, in order to develop novel therapeutic agents.
