Servicio de visualización acorde con perfil INSPIRE de ISO 19128-WMS 1.3.0, IGNBase

El Centro Nacional de Información Geográfica (CNIG) publica en la web alrededor de unos cuarenta servicios web del Instituto Geográfico Nacional (IGN) de diferentes temáticas, siguiendo todos ellos las especificaciones del Open Geospatial Consortium. Pero desde la publicación en marzo del 2010 de la Guía Técnica para la implementación de Servicios de Visualización INSPIRE y en diciembre de ese mismo año del Reglamento acerca de la interoperabilidad de los conjuntos de datos y servicios espaciales, el CNIG ha comenzado por transformar primero sus servicios de visualización WMS en servicios de visualización acordes con INSPIRE, comenzando por el servicio llamado IDEE-Base y renombrado como IGN-Base. IGNBase es un servicio de visualización de mapas que permite el acceso a la cartografía oficial que produce el IGN a las escalas 1:25.000 y 1:200.000. Su principal característica es que cumple con los requisitos que establece Inspire en cuanto a los servicios de visualización, siguiendo las siguientes normas: Reglamento sobre interoperabilidad de los conjuntos y datos espaciales, Reglamento sobre servicios de red y Reglamento sobre metadatos. Además, para su implementación se han seguido la Guía técnica para la implementación de servicios de visualización Inspire y las Reglas de implementación de metadatos Inspire. Respecto a la tecnología, se ha utilizado principalmente fuentes abiertas, como Postgis y GeoServer. En este artículo se expone ventajas que proporciona el servicio elaborado así como las dificultades encontradas en la elaboración del servicio de visualización en cuanto a la gestión de los datos; como su gran volumen, la variedad de fuentes, los modelos de datos, que aún no están adaptados a la normativa europea, etc. y los inconvenientes de las herramientas de fuentes abiertas que no están del todo adaptadas al perfil Inspire de WMS 1.3.0 y a sus Reglamentos. IGN-Base no solo está disponible en su versión compatible con el perfil INSPIRE de ISO 19128-WMS 1.3.0, sino también con WMS 1.1

Enhanced Templating in the Crystallisation of Poly(E-caprolactone) Using 1,3:2,4-di(4-Chlorobenzylidene) Sorbitol

We show that small quantities of 1,3:2,4-di(4-chlorobenzylidene) sorbitol dispersed in poly(epsilon-caprolactone) provide a very effective self-assembling nanoscale framework which, with a flow field, yields extremely high levels of polymer crystal orientation. During modest shear flow of the polymer melt, the additive forms highly extended nano-particles which adopt a preferred alignment with respect to the flow field. On cooling, polymer crystallisation is directed by these particles. This chloro substituted dibenzylidene sorbitol is considerably more effective at directing the crystal growth of poly(epsilon-caprolactone) than the unsubstituted compound.

Down-regulation of the CSLF6 gene results in decreased (1,3;1,4)-beta-D-glucan in endosperm of wheat

(1,3;1,4)-beta-d-Glucan (beta-glucan) accounts for 20% of the total cell walls in the starchy endosperm of wheat (Triticum aestivum) and is an important source of dietary fiber for human nutrition with potential health benefits. Bioinformatic and array analyses of gene expression profiles in developing caryopses identified the CELLULOSE SYNTHASE-LIKE F6 (CSLF6) gene as encoding a putative beta-glucan synthase. RNA interference constructs were therefore designed to down-regulate CSLF6 gene expression and expressed in transgenic wheat under the control of a starchy endosperm-specific HMW subunit gene promoter. Analysis of wholemeal flours using an enzyme-based kit and by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography after digestion with lichenase showed decreases in total beta-glucan of between 30% and 52% and between 36% and 53%, respectively, in five transgenic lines compared to three control lines. The content of water-extractable beta-glucan was also reduced by about 50% in the transgenic lines, and the M(r) distribution of the fraction was decreased from an average of 79 to 85 x 10(4) g/mol in the controls and 36 to 57 x 10(4) g/mol in the transgenics. Immunolocalization of beta-glucan in semithin sections of mature and developing grains confirmed that the impact of the transgene was confined to the starchy endosperm with little or no effect on the aleurone or outer layers of the grain. The results confirm that the CSLF6 gene of wheat encodes a beta-glucan synthase and indicate that transgenic manipulation can be used to enhance the health benefits of wheat products.

Enhanced phosphopeptide isolation by Fe(III)-IMAC using 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol

IMAC can be used to selectively enrich phosphopeptides from complex peptide mixtures, but co-retention of acidic peptides together with the failure to retain some phosphopeptides restricts the general utility of the method. In this study Fe(III)-IMAC was qualitatively and quantitatively assessed using a panel of phosphopeptides, both synthetic and derived from proteolysis of known phosphoproteins, to identify the causes of success and failure in the application of this technique. Here we demonstrate that, as expected, peptides with a more acidic amino acid content are generally more efficiently purified and detected by MALDI-MS after Fe(III)-IMAC than those with a more basic content. Modulating the loading buffer used for Fe(III)-IMAC significantly affects phosphopeptide binding and suggests that conformational factors that lead to steric hindrance and reduced accessibility to the phosphate are important. The use of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol is shown here to significantly improve Fe(III)-IMAC enrichment and subsequent detection of phosphopeptides by MALDI-MS.

1,3-Dipolar cycloadditions to unsymmetrical ketone-derived chiral stabilized azomethine ylides: strategies for the synthesis of highly substituted amino acids

We report herein, the first generation of unsymmetrical ketone-derived chiral stabilized azomethine ylides. Intrairiolecular and intermolecular cycloaddition strategies have been utilized to synthesize both an enantiornerically pure bicyclic proline derivative and an enantionierically pure beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino acid.

Synthesis and photoreactivity of aryl substituted 4,5-dithienyl[1,3]dithiol-2-ones

UV irradiation of hitherto unknown 4,5-bis-benzol[b]thiophen-3-yl-[1,3]dithiol-2-one gave 3-(3-benzo[b]thienyl)-thieno[3,4-c]benzo[ e][1,2]dithine by loss of carbon monoxide and rearrangement, whereas 4,5-bis-(2-bromo-phenyl)-[1,3]dithiol-2-one gave a polymeric material containing S-S bridges. The Structures of both photoproducts were demonstrated on the basis of chemical behaviour and/or X-ray diffraction. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Formation of triple helical nanofibers using self-assembling chiral benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamides and reversal of the nanostructure's handedness using mirror image building blocks

Intertwining triple helical nanofibers with an overall handedness have been formed from self-assembling chiral benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamides 1, 2 and 3, whereas the achiralbenzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide 4 upon self-association gives rise to straight nanofibers without any twist and transmission electron microscopy images of chiral compounds clearly demonstrate that the handedness of the triple helical nanofibers can be reversed by using the enantiomeric benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide building blocks.

Azide 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions to N-propynoyl and N-propenoyl (5R)-5-phenylmorpholin-2-one: diastereocontrolled aziridine formation

N-Propynoyl (5R)-5-phenylmorpholin-2-one undergoes nonregioselective cycloaddition with aromatic azides to furnish mixtures of the corresponding triazoles, whereas N-propenoyl (5R)-5-phenylmorpholin-2-one reacts to furnish the corresponding diastereoisomerically pure aziridines in moderate to good yields, presumably via the intermediate triazolines.

Synthesis of enantiopure prolines via exo-stereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions to acetone-derived chiral stabilised azomethine ylides

The chiral stabilised azomethine ylide formed from condensation of the dimethyl acetal of acetone with (5S)-5-phenylmorpholinone undergoes stereoselective exo-cycloaddition reactions with a range of doubly and singly activated dipolarophiles when generated in the presence of excess (MgBr2OEt2)-O-.. The cycloadducts can be degraded to yield enantiomerically pure proline derivatives.

Solvent extraction and lanthanide complexation studies with new terdentate ligands containing two 1,3,5-triazine moieties

The extracting agent 2,6-bis(4,6-di-pivaloylamino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-pyridine (L-5) in n-octanol was found, in synergy with 2-bromodecanoic acid, to give D-Am/D-Eu separation factors (SFs) between 2.4 and 3.7 when used to extract the metal ions from 0.02-0.12 M HNO3. Slightly higher SFs (4-6) were obtained in the absence of the synergist when the ligand was used to extract Am(III) and Eu(III) from 0.98 M HNO3. In order to investigate the possible nature of the extracted species crystal structures of L-5 and the complex formed between Yb(III) with 2,6-bis(4,6-di-amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-pyridine (L-4) were also determined. The structure of L-5 shows 3 methanol solvent molecules all of which form 2 or 3 hydrogen bonds with triazine nitrogen atoms, amide nitrogen or oxygen atoms, or pyridine nitrogen atoms. However, L-5 is relatively unstable in metal complexation reactions and loses amide groups to form the parent tetramine L-4. The crystal structure of Yb(L-4)(NO3)(3) shows ytterbium in a 9-coordinate environment being bonded to three donor atoms of the ligand and three bidentate nitrate ions. The solvent extraction properties of L-4 and L-5 are far inferior to those found for the 2,6-bis-(1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)-pyridines (L-1) which have SF values of ca. 140 and theoretical calculations have been made to compare the electronic properties of the ligands. The electronic charge distribution in L-4 and L-5 is similar to that found in other terdentate ligands such as terpyridine which have equally poor extraction properties and suggests that the unique properties of L-1 evolve from the presence of two adjacent nitrogen atoms in the triazine rings.
