Un Fantasma recorre el mundo: El fantasma de las privatizaciones. Balance del cambio y continuidad en las asociaciones publico-privadas bajo el gobierno de izquierda de México(2018-2021)

The purpose of this article is to analyze the politics around privatizations in the left-wing government of Andrés Manuel López Obrador (Amlo). The aim is to identify the ideational mark and the possible breaks or continuities of the infrastructure policy in a global context characterized by the promotion of the Public-Private Parnerships (ppps) -as a modality of the privatization of public goods and services-. It is argued that the ideas around the State in the current administration do not approve the participation of the private sector in the prison, and hospital sectors, freezing, to some extent, the privatization inertia promoted since the 1980s. We concluded that despite its open opposition, the Amlo government has had to use ppps in sectors such as road, energy infraestructure, and transport, due to budget restrictions that will be aggravated by the Covid-19 pandemic.

This research is based on the operation tube heat exchangers, their use and problematic on hydroelectric power plants. It is based on the design heat exchanger tubes for industrial use, which took the parameters of operation, design, working fluids (air and water) and conditions to assemble a monitoring equipment at appropriate scale for the laboratory, with the necessary measurement instruments to analyze the behavior of heat energy transfer by means of thermocouples, the velocity of the air with a hot wire anemometer and the flow of water with a turbine flow meter, in pipes of different materials: copper, steel 1018 and stainless steel 316L, all in ideal conditions, and with this to found a comparative parameter with pipes of the same materials but under conditions of deterioration with the presence of forced oxidation and with the data mining and support vector machine can be minimized the corrosion problems in pipes.

Evaluación de la cinética de liberación de compuestos hidrofílicos y lipofílicos a partir de nanopartículas híbridas polímero-lípido

Evaluation of the release kinetics of hydrophilic and lipophilic compounds from polymer-lipid hybrid nanoparticles

Juan Pablo Carmona Almazán (2023, [Tesis de maestría])

En el tratamiento de enfermedades, la administración de dosis múltiples es una estrategia común para mantener la concentración de los fármacos dentro de un margen terapéutico. Sin embargo, la adherencia de los pacientes a este tipo de tratamiento puede ser un desafío, llevando a una administración irregular de dosis. Una alternativa utilizada para abordar este reto son las nanopartículas híbridas polímero/lípido(NPPLs), las cuales, con menos administraciones, tienen el potencial de alcanzar la dosis necesaria en el tratamiento, posibilitando entonces el incremento del apego al tratamiento. En nuestro proyecto, se llevó a cabo la síntesis de nanopartículas de ácido poli láctico-co-glicólico (PLGA) recubiertas de lecitina de soya, por medio de técnicas de nanoprecipitación y autoensamblaje. Además, integramos estas nanopartículas en una matriz polimérica a base de aerogeles de gelatina de manera que estuvieran distribuidas de manera homogénea y concentrada. Nuestro enfoque central radica en entender la cinética de liberación de un compuesto hidrofílico (ácido gálico) y uno lipofílico (quercetina) a partir de este sistema. Logramos sintetizar nanopartículas con un diámetro hidrodinámico de 100 ± 15 nm, 153 ± 33 y149±21 nm, en el caso de las nanopartículas vacías y cargadas con ácido gálico y cargadas con quercetina, respectivamente. La eficiencia de encapsulación del ácido gálico fue del 90 ± 5 % y de la quercetina fue del 70 ± 10 %. Los resultados que obtuvimos muestran que el ácido gálico sigue una cinética del modelo de Korsmeyer-Peppas, con un valor de n = 1.01 y la quercetina una cinética de primer orden. Dado que los compuestos encapsulados tuvieron una liberación más lenta con respecto a los compuestos libres en los aerogeles de gelatina, nuestro trabajo indica que el encapsulamiento en NPPLs de un compuesto bioactivo, independientemente de su naturaleza química, puede ayudar a retrasar su liberación y reducir el número de dosis administradas, en consecuencia, esto pudiera contribuir a incrementar el apego de un paciente al tratamiento.

In the treatment of diseases, the administration of multiple doses is a common strategy to maintain drug concentrations within a therapeutic range. However, patient adherence to this type of treatment can be challenging, resulting in irregular dosing. An alternative approach used to address this challenge involves polymer/lipid hybrid nanoparticles (NPPLs), which have the potential to achieve the necessary drug dose with fewer administrations, thereby increasing treatment adherence. In our project, we synthesized poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles coated with soy lecithin using nanoprecipitation and self-assembly techniques. These nanoparticles were then integrated into a polymer matrix based on gelatin aerogels to ensure homogeneous and concentrated distribution. Our main focus was to understand the release kinetics of a hydrophilic compound (gallic acid) and a lipophilic one (quercetin) from this system. We successfully synthesized nanoparticles with a hydrodynamic diameter of 100 ± 15 nm, 153 ± 33 nm, and 149 ± 21 nm for empty nanoparticles, gallic acid-loaded, and quercetin-loaded nanoparticles, respectively. The encapsulation efficiency was 90 ± 5 % for gallic acid and 70 ± 10 % for quercetin. The results we obtained indicate that gallic acid follows Korsmeyer-Peppas kinetics with a value of n = 1.01, while quercetin exhibits first-order kinetics. Since the encapsulated compounds showed slower release compared to free compounds in gelatin aerogels, our work suggests that encapsulation in NPPLs with a bioactive compound, regardless of its chemical nature, can help delay its release and reduce the number of doses administered. Consequently, this could contribute to improve patient treatment adherence.

Data for the synthesis, characterization, and use of xerogels as adsorbents for the removal of fluoride and bromide in aqueous phase

NAHUM ANDRES MEDELLIN CASTILLO ELIZABETH DIANE ISAACS PAEZ Liliana Giraldo Gutiérrez JUAN CARLOS MORENO-PIRAJAN ITZIA RODRIGUEZ MENDEZ SIMON YOBANNY REYES LOPEZ JAIME REYES HERNANDEZ SONIA JUDITH SEGOVIA SANDOVAL (2022, [Artículo])

"Groundwater with high fluoride concentrations has been recognized as one of the serious concerns worldwide. Besides, the fluoride released into the groundwater by slow dissolution of fluoride-containing rocks, various industries also contribute to fluoride pollution [1]. Excess intake of fluoride leads to various health problems such as dental and skeletal fluorosis, cancer, infertility, brain damage, thyroid diseases, etc. [2]. On the other hand, bromide is naturally present in surface and groundwater sources. However, during the chlorination process, bromide can be oxidized to HOBr, which can react with natural organic matter in water to form brominated organic disinfection byproducts, which are very harmful to human health [3]. Among various methods for water treatment, the adsorption process has been widely used and seems to be an efficient and attractive method for the removal of many contaminants in water, such as anions, in terms of cost, simplicity of design, and operation [4,5]. In the past years, xerogels and carbon xerogels, a new type of adsorbents, which are synthesized by the sol-gel polycondensation of resorcinol and formaldehyde, have gained attention due to their moldable texture and chemical properties [6]. Moreover, melamine addition in resorcinol and formaldehyde xerogels adds basic groups on its surface, favouring Lewis acid-base interactions between xerogels and other components by adsorption [7]. In this data article, the synthesis of three resorcinolformaldehyde (R/F) xerogels with an increasing amount of melamine (M) was carried out by colloidal polymerization (molar ratios of M/R = 0.5, M/R = 1.0, and M/R = 2.0). Additionally, samples of M/R = 0.5 xerogel were carbonized at 400, 450, and 550 degrees C under an inert atmosphere to increase their specific area. Organic and carbon xerogels obtained were characterized by FTIR, TGA, SEM, Physisorption of N 2, and the pH at the point of zero charge (pH PZC). All organic xerogels were also tested as adsorbents on the removal of fluoride and bromide ions from aqueous phase. The Freundlich, Langmuir, and Radke-Prausnitz isotherm models were applied to interpret the experimental data from adsorption equilibrium. Additionally, the data of the mass of the xerogel needed to remove fluoride and bromide from groundwater and fulfill the maximum concentration levels are also included."
