Study of a light hydrocarbon fraction spill migration that occurred in an area of the Mexican southeast using computational fluid dynamics.

The present work aimed to study, predict and understand benzene migration that occurred during an industrial spill using numerical simulation by computational fluid dynamics. Advection, diffusion and adsorption were the main mechanisms considered that governed the spill incident. The incident occurred due to a fracture under a fuel oil storage tank.

Bioaccessibility and Intestinal Permeability of a Recombinant Lectin from Tepary Bean () Using the Everted Intestine Assay.

Tepary bean () lectins exhibit differential and biological effects, but their gastrointestinal interactions and digestion have not yet been assessed. This work aimed to evaluate the changes of a recombinant Tepary bean lectin (rTBL-1) through an and gastrointestinal process. A polyclonal antibody was developed to selectively detect rTBL-1 by Western blot (WB) and immunohistochemical analysis.
