Wine is a complex matrix in which aroma compounds play an important role in the characterization of the flavor pattern of a given wine. Twelve volatile compounds were determined in 244 samples of Spanish red wines from different denominations of origin: Rioja, Navarra, Valdepeñas, La Mancha, and Cariñena. The samples were analyzed by GC using headspace solid-phase microextraction. The concentration (mg/mL) intervals obtained were 3-methyl-butyl acetate (3.9 to 116), 3-methyl-1-butanol (93 to 724), ethyl hexanoate (0.8 to 39), 1-hexanol (0.3 to 6.7), ethyl octanoate (1.4 to 41), diethyl succinate (0.2 to 13), 2-phenyl ethyl acetate (0 to 5.3), hexanoic acid (0 to 8.3), geraniol (0 to 3.0), 2-phenylethanol (1.5 to 56), octanoic acid (0 to 20), and decanoic acid (0 to 3.3). Wines were classified by multivariate statistical methods: principal component analysis, and lineal discriminant analysis. A correct differentiation among wines according to their origin was obtained by lineal discriminant analysis.

Catheter ablation (CA) is a commonly used treatment for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). Since its medium/long-term success rate remains limited, preoperative prediction of its outcome is gaining clinical interest to optimally select candidates for the procedure. Among predictors based on the surface electrocardiogram, the dominant frequency (DF) and harmonic exponential decay (γ) of the fibrillatory waves (-waves) have reported promising but clinically insufficient results.

Introduction: The rapid identification and detection of carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (CPKP) isolates is crucial to ascertain outbreaks, as well as to limit their spread. The current reference method for this purpose is multilocus sequence typing (MLST), which is laborious and expensive. Consequently, alternative typing methods are gaining attention, such as Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time Of Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS).

In this work, an unprecedented study exploring the role that slight changes into the Pd/Au proportion have in the electrocatalytic activity of bimetallic Pd-AuNPs toward the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is conducted. In particular, a careful control of the amount of Au atoms introduced in the cluster and the evaluation of the optimum Pd:Au ratio for getting the maximum catalytic activity is performed for the first time. First, PdNPs are synthesized by alcohol reduction in the presence of polyvinylpyrrolidone, and gold atoms are selectively introduced on vertex or corner positions of the cluster in different amounts following a galvanic substitution procedure.

It is well known that the degeneracy of two-phase microstructures with the same volume fraction and two-point correlation function S_{2}(r) is generally infinite. To elucidate the degeneracy problem explicitly, we examine Debye random media, which are entirely defined by a purely exponentially decaying two-point correlation function S_{2}(r). In this work, we consider three different classes of Debye random media.
