This paper develops a device capable of confirming the minimum coverage area on a thermistor by a thermal paste dispensed and cured in the manufacturing process of Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) temperature sensors to provide the required fixation in the presence of mechanical shock conditions. Such a device leverages the thermistor’s self-heating effect and the thermal conductivity of the paste to read the voltage drop from the sensor, which translates into paste coverage area. The methodology follows a synthesized procedure to develop equipment and processes, considering an early phase for concept confirmation to demonstrate the feasibility of the device development. In a later phase, the optimal parameters are calculated and set to the device for delivering the corresponding classification of the sensors during the test. Once launched in production, the device demonstrates high effectiveness in screening out the sensors with rejectable paste coverage area on the thermistor.

Survival of Artemia franciscana in coculture with Vibrio campbellii and Nitzschia thermalis f. kurta
Dalia Azucena Verde Inzunza (2023, [Tesis de maestría])
La acuicultura es uno de los sectores más importantes y de mayor producción alimentaria. Sin embargo, se ve afectada por enfermedades bacterianas como la vibriosis, la cual puede ocasionar pérdidas totales en los cultivos. El método más utilizado para controlar la vibriosis es el uso de antibióticos, lo cual ha contribuido al desarrollo de cepas bacterianas resistentes. Por ello, se buscan medios de control naturales para inhibir el crecimiento de Vibrio, como el uso de aguas verdes. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar el efecto inhibitorio de Nitzschia thermalis f. kurta en la concentración de V. campbellii y en la supervivencia de nauplios de Artemia franciscana al estar en cocultivo. Se realizó un bioensayo de inhibición de V. campbellii en cocultivo con N. thermalis y nauplios de A. franciscana. Se mantuvieron cultivos monoespecíficos, no axénicos y por triplicado en medio “f” con una densidad celular de 250,000 cél. mL-1 de N. thermalis. Los cultivos fueron inoculados con una concentración inicial de 1 x105 V. campbellii mL-1 y una densidad de 1 nauplio de A. franciscana mL-1. Para cada tratamiento se evaluó la densidad celular de N. thermalis, conteo de bacterias heterotróficas, cuantificación de la concentración de V. campbellii y la supervivencia de nauplios de A. franciscana durante 5 días. Se obtuvo una supervivencia promedio de 55% de nauplios de A. franciscana al estar en cocultivo con N. thermalis. Mientras que el tratamiento control sin la presencia de N. thermalis obtuvo una supervivencia de nauplios de A. franciscana del 0%. El contenido de bacterias heterotróficas se presentó en todos los tratamientos en un orden de magnitud de 106 UFC mL-1, lo cual nos indica que el efecto inhibitorio de N. thermalis es específico para V. campbellii. La concentración de V. campbellii disminuyó a 53 V. campbellii mL-1 al día 5 en el cocultivo de V. campbellii con N. thermalis y nauplios de A. franciscana. Se concluye que N. thermalis tiene un efecto inhibitorio contra V. campbellii y brinda protección a los nauplios de A. franciscana en cocultivo con V. campbellii.
Aquaculture is one of the most important sectors with the highest food production. However, it is affected by bacterial diseases such as vibriosis, which can cause total crop losses. The most used method to control vibriosis is antibiotics, which have contributed to the developing of resistant bacterial strains. For this reason, natural control means are sought to inhibit Vibrio growth, such as using green water. This work aimed to evaluate the inhibitory effect of Nitzschia thermalis f. kurta in the concentration of V. campbellii and the survival of Artemia franciscana nauplii when in coculture. An inhibition bioassay of V. campbellii was carried out in coculture with N. thermalis and nauplii of A. franciscana. Monospecific, non-axenic cultures were maintained in triplicate in “f” medium with a cell density of 250,000 cells mL-1 of N. thermalis. The cultures were inoculated with an initial concentration of 1 x105 V. campbellii mL-1 and a density of 1 nauplius of A. franciscana mL-1. For each treatment, the cell density of N. thermalis, count of heterotrophic bacteria, quantification of the concentration of V. campbellii, and the survival of A. franciscana nauplii were evaluated for 5 days. Was obtained an average survival of 55% of A. franciscana nauplii when cocultured with N. thermalis. In contrast, the control treatment without the presence of N. thermalis obtained a survival of A. franciscana nauplii of 0%. The content of heterotrophic bacteria was present in all treatments in order of magnitude of 106 CFU mL-1, which indicates that the inhibitory effect of N. thermalis is specific to V. campbellii. The concentration of V. campbellii decreased to 53 V. campbellii mL-1 on day 5 in the co-culture of V. campbellii with N. thermalis and A. franciscana nauplii. It is concluded that N. thermalis has an inhibitory effect against V. campbellii and provides protection to A. franciscana nauplii in coculture with V. campbellii.

Development of a thermoelectric test for electrical contactors
PABLO OROZCO CORRAL FRANCISCO JAVIER IBARRA VILLEGAS NOE VILLA VILLASEÑOR (2023, [Artículo])
In the economic model in which we develop, there is a dependence on the means of transport that every day is increasing and due to the importance of electrification in the issue of efficient and clean transportation, has caused the need for companies supplying components for automotive manufacturers to evolve and develop new technologies to stay ahead of the needs of their customers being in full evolution towards electrified transport. This evolution extends not only to manufacturing but to the test methods that currently exist, since automotive standards require suppliers to test in laboratory, the components they sell to their customers to ensure their correct operation.

Low thermal conductivity solar domestic water heater
MIGUEL ANGEL PORTA GANDARA JOSE LUIS FERNANDEZ ZAYAS JUAN FRANCISCO VILLA MEDINA NORBERTO CHARGOY DEL VALLE (2022, [Artículo])
"Solar domestic water heaters (SWH) with thermosyphon circulation are the most common commercial applications of solar energy in Mexico. They are also becoming popular in the rest of the world, given their simplicity, good economic returns, and sustainability. Traditionally the solar collector, the piping, and the storage tank are built of copper and steel. However, wáter quality in many parts of the Mexican Northwest has high mineral contents and, when heated, results in early metal pitting corrosion of SWH parts. Short-lived water heaters are bad promoters of the technology. In this work, a SWH thermoplastic Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC) is built and tested under real operating conditions in La Paz, BCS, Mexico. The optimal design is detected with the aid of a suitable numerical model. Results reveal that a full SWH-CPVC can be technically and economically convenient for the weather conditions of the Northwestern states of Mexico."

Development of P22 viral capsid nanocomposites for enzymatic prodrug therapy in breast cancer
Astrid Rebeca Luna Rios (2024, [Tesis de maestría])
Las estrategias actuales contra el cáncer de mama presentan limitaciones debido a la falta de selectividad, disminuyendo su efectividad. La mayoría de los fármacos, como el tamoxifeno, requieren la activación metabólica por parte de las enzimas de la familia citocromo P450 (CYP) para ejercer mayores efectos anticancerígenos. Sin embargo, la concentración del CYP es variable y baja en las células tumorales, especialmente en el cáncer de mama, lo que provoca efectos secundarios. En la terapia de activación enzimática de profármacos (EPT), las enzimas se dirigen al tumor para transformar el profármaco, lo que normalmente implica la administración de la enzima seguida del profármaco. Sin embargo, las diferencias entre la farmacocinética y farmacodinamia son un obstáculo para mejorar el tratamiento. Por lo tanto, la administración conjunta de profármaco y enzima es esencial para garantizar su interacción favorable en el tumor. Este trabajo reporta una nueva clase de nanocompositos terapéuticos basados en partículas tipo virus P22 confinando CYP, funcionalizadas superficialmente con glucosa oxidasa (GOx) que transforma la glucosa en D-glucono-δ-lactona produciendo H2O2, el aceptor final de electrones en la transformación de tamoxifeno mediado por CYP, y conjugadas con un derivado de tamoxifeno como profármaco y ligando dirigido utilizando polietilenglicol como conector. En un microambiente tumoral rico en glucosa, estos nanocompuestos pueden producir fármaco activo in situ. Se caracterizaron las propiedades fisicoquímicas y la catálisis secuencial mediada por glucosa de los nanocompositos. Los estudios in vitro demostraron una disminución en la viabilidad celular en líneas celulares de cáncer de mama ER+ y ER-. Sin embargo, la internalización celular en ausencia de glucosa mostró ser preferencial con las VLPs dirigidas en ambas líneas celulares. La administración conjunta de enzimas y profármacos con una localización mejorada de las VLPs desarrolladas después de la funcionalización del tamoxifeno, lo que sugiere el potencial de los nanocompositos desarrollados para superar los desafíos existentes de la EPT y mejorar los resultados terapéuticos con efectos secundarios reducidos.
Current treatment strategies against breast cancer have limitations due to lack in selectivity. Most drugs, such as tamoxifen, require metabolic activation by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes to perform greater anticancer effects. However, the concentration of CYP varies and is low in tumor cells, especially in breast cancer, resulting in side-effects. In enzyme prodrug therapy (EPT), enzymes are targeted to the tumor cells for prodrug transformation, typically involving the sequential delivery of the enzyme followed by the prodrug. However, differences in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics are a major hindrance for improving treatment. Therefore, co-delivery of prodrug and enzyme is essential to ensure their favorable interaction in tumor. This work reports a new class of therapeutic nanocomposites based on P22 virus like particles (VLPs) confining the CYP activity, surface functionalized with glucose oxidase (GOx) that transforms glucose into D-glucono-δ-lactone producing hydrogen peroxide, the final electron acceptor in the CYP-mediated transformation of tamoxifen, and together conjugated with a tamoxifen derivative as prodrug and targeting ligand using polyethylene glycol as a linker. In glucose-rich tumor microenvironment, these nanocomposites can produce active drug in situ. The physicochemical properties and sequential glucose-mediated catalysis of the nanocomposites were characterized. In vitro studies demonstrated a decrease in cell viability in both ER+ and ER- breast cancer cell lines. However, cellular internalization in the absence of glucose showed improved uptake of targeted VLPs in both cell lines. The co-delivery of enzymes and prodrug with improved localization of developed VLPs after tamoxifen functionalization, suggests the potential of developed nanocomposites to overcome the existing challenges of EPT and improve the therapeutic outcomes with reduced side effects.

"Competition and facilitation are important factors affecting seedling survival. These factors probably affect plant distribution and abundance. Interactions between species relate to phylogeny, in that closely related species are likely to compete more for resources and facilitation is expected between more distantly related species. We tested for Tamaulipan thornscrub plants, grown with close and distant relatives if they differed in survival, length and weight of shoots and roots, assuming that closely related species would compete more than distant ones. We also explored whether seed mass was associated with plant size from 1-24 months after germination. We grew plants from Tamaulipan thornscrub, with a sibling or with one individual from other species from 1-24 months. Seedling survival was similar for all species when their seedlings grew alone or under competition, at 1, 6 and 12 months. At 24 months seedling survival of Vachellia farnesiana was lower when grown with Havardia pallens. There was no evidence of stronger competition or facilitation for phylogenetically closer species. Seedling size correlated with seed mass one month after germination but not after 6 months. Maximum and mean adult plant height did not correlate with seed mass or with plant height in our trials. We found no evidence of phylogeny explaining nearest neighbors in competition during germination for Tamaulipan thornscrub."
"La competencia y la facilitación son factores importantes que afectan la supervivencia de las plántulas y probablemente afectan la distribución y abundancia de las plantas. Las interacciones entre especies se relacionan con la filogenia, es probable que las especies estrechamente relacionadas compitan más por recursos y que en las menos emparentadas ocurra facilitación. Se investigó si plantas de matorral tamaulipeco creciendo junto a parientes cercanos y lejanos diferían en supervivencia, longitud y peso de tallos y raíces, asumiendo que las especies estrechamente relacionadas competirían más que las lejanas. También se exploró si el peso de semillas se asoció con el tamaño de la planta entre 1 y 24 meses de edad. Se pusieron a crecer plantas de matorral tamaulipeco, con un hermano o con un individuo de otras especies, de 1-24 meses. La supervivencia de plántulas fue similar para todas las especies cuando éstas crecieron solas o en competencia, a los 1, 6 y 12 meses. A los 24 meses, la supervivencia de plántulas de Vachellia farnesiana fue menor cuando creció con Havardia pallens. No hubo evidencia de una competencia o facilitación fuerte para especies filogenéticamente más cercanas. El tamaño de la plántula se correlacionó con el peso de la semilla únicamente al mes de germinadas. La altura máxima y promedio de la planta adulta no se correlacionó con el peso de semillas o con la altura de la planta. La filogenia no explicó la competencia con los vecinos más cercanos durante la germinación de especies del matorral tamaulipeco."

Genomic selection (GS) is a predictive methodology that trains statistical machine-learning models with a reference population that is used to perform genome-enabled predictions of new lines. In plant breeding, it has the potential to increase the speed and reduce the cost of selection. However, to optimize resources, sparse testing methods have been proposed. A common approach is to guarantee a proportion of nonoverlapping and overlapping lines allocated randomly in locations, that is, lines appearing in some locations but not in all. In this study we propose using incomplete block designs (IBD), principally, for the allocation of lines to locations in such a way that not all lines are observed in all locations. We compare this allocation with a random allocation of lines to locations guaranteeing that the lines are allocated to
the same number of locations as under the IBD design. We implemented this benchmarking on several crop data sets under the Bayesian genomic best linear unbiased predictor (GBLUP) model, finding that allocation under the principle of IBD outperformed random allocation by between 1.4% and 26.5% across locations, traits, and data sets in terms of mean square error. Although a wide range of performance improvements were observed, our results provide evidence that using IBD for the allocation of lines to locations can help improve predictive performance compared with random allocation. This has the potential to be applied to large-scale plant breeding programs.

The automatic identification of catalytic residues still remains an important challenge in structural bioinformatics. Sequence-based methods are good alternatives when the query shares a high percentage of identity with a well-annotated enzyme. However, when the homology is not apparent, which occurs with many structures from the structural genome initiative, structural information should be exploited. A local structural comparison is preferred to a global structural comparison when predicting functional residues. CMASA is a recently proposed method for predicting catalytic residues based on a local structure comparison. The method achieves high accuracy and a high value for the Matthews correlation coefficient. However, point substitutions or a lack of relevant data strongly affect the performance of the method. In the present study, we propose a simple extension to the CMASA method to overcome this difficulty. Extensive computational experiments are shown as proof of concept instances, as well as for a few real cases. The results show that the extension performs well when the catalytic site contains mutated residues or when some residues are missing. The proposed modification could correctly predict the catalytic residues of a mutant thymidylate synthase, 1EVF. It also successfully predicted the catalytic residues for 3HRC despite the lack of information for a relevant side chain atom in the PDB file. © 2014 Flores et al.
