BUSINESS MODEL OF GREEN CROWDFUNDING: BUILDING SUSTAINABLE ECONOMY THROUGH CONSUMER INVOLVEMENT
Natalia Maehle,Ingeborg A. Kleppe,Natalia Drozdova 글로벌지식마케팅경영학회 2018 Global Marketing Conference Vol.2018 No.07
Green crowdfunding – fundraising for green initiatives – has become a growing source of alternative finance for sustainable entrepreneurs. The current paper explores the business model of green crowdfunding from three perspectives, i.e. funders, founders and platform. We pay special attention to how green crowdfunding extends consumers‘ involvement in sustainable economy.
Adjuvant therapy with 1% alendronate gel for experimental periodontitis treatment in rats
de Campos Kajimoto, Natalia,de Paiva Buischi, Yvonne,Loomer, Peter Michael,Bromage, Timothy G.,Ervolino, Edilson,Fucini, Stephen Enrico,Pola, Natalia Marcumini,Pirovani, Beatriz Ommati,Morabito, Maria Korean Academy of Periodontology 2021 Journal of Periodontal & Implant Science Vol.51 No.-
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of locally delivered 1% alendronate (ALN) gel used as an adjunct to non-invasive periodontal therapy. Methods: Ligature-induced periodontitis was performed in 96 rats. The ligature was tied in the cervical area of the mandibular left first molar. The animals were randomly divided into 4 groups: 1) NT, no treatment; 2) SRP, scaling and root planning; 3) SRP/PLA, SRP followed by filling the periodontal pocket with placebo gel (PLA); and 4) SRP/ALN, SRP followed by filling the periodontal pockets with 1% ALN gel. Histomorphometric (percentage of bone in the furcation region [PBF]) and immunohistochemical (receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand, osteoprotegerin, and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase) analyses were performed. Data were statistically analyzed, with the threshold of statistical significance set at P≤0.05. Results: The SRP, SRP/PLA, and SRP/ALN groups presented a higher PBF than the NT group (P≤0.01) at 7, 15, and 30 days. The SRP/ALN group presented a higher PBF than the SRP/PLA group in all experimental periods, as well as a higher PBF than the SRP group at 15 and 30 days. No differences were observed in the immunohistochemical analyses (P>0.05 for all). Conclusions: Locally delivered 1% ALN gel used as an adjunct to SRP enhanced bone regeneration in the furcation region in a rat model of experimental periodontitis.
Turnera subulata Anti-Inflammatory Properties in Lipopolysaccharide-Stimulated RAW 264.7 Macrophages
Natalia Cabral Souza,Juliana Medeiros de Oliveira,Maurilio da Silva Morrone,Ricardo D’Oliveira Albanus,Maria do Socorro Medeiros Amarante,Christina da Silva Camillo,Silvana Maria Zucolotto Langassner 한국식품영양과학회 2016 Journal of medicinal food Vol.19 No.10
In South America, particularly in the Northeastern regions of Brazil, Turnera subulata leaf extract is used as an alternative traditional medicine approach for several types of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, chronic pain, and general inflammation. Despite its widespread use, little is known about the medicinal properties of the plants of this genus. In this study, we evaluate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory of T. subulata leaf extract in an in vitro model of inflammation, using lipopolysaccharide-stimulated RAW-264.7 macrophage cell line. We observed that cotreatment with T. subulata leaf extract was able to reduce the oxidative stress in cells due to inflammatory response. More importantly, we observed that the leaf extract was able to directly modulate inflammatory response by altering activity of members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways. Our results demonstrate for the first time that T. subulata have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which warrant further investigation of the medicinal potential of this species.
Public Perceptions of the EU in South Korea: Longitudinal Study (2004-2006)
( Natalia Chaban ),( Sae Won Chung ) 한국EU학회 2009 Asia-Pacific Journal of EU Studies Vol.7 No.1
This paper focuses on the external perceptions on the European Union (EU)-a relatively new political entity which has already become one of the global economic centres and is growing in its international political importance. More specifically, this paper investigates dynamics of the general public`s views on the EU in one Asian country-South Korea. The data for this research came from two trans-national comparative projects investigating public, media and elite perceptions of the EU in the Asia-Pacific, one of them being supported by the Asia Europe Foundation (ASEF). Analysing results of two general public opinion surveys conducted in South Korea in 2004 and 2006, this paper examines shifts and changes in Korean public perceptions of the EU when it comes to its perceived importance (in the present and in the future); the views on state of the relationship with the EU; spontaneous images of the EU; and finally, perceptions of the EU`s impacts on Korea.
Can Monetary union Enhance Banking Competition?: A Multicase Study
( Natalia Utrero Gonzalez ),( Francisco J. Callado Munoz ) 세종대학교 경제통합연구소 (구 세종대학교 국제경제연구소) 2007 Journal of Economic Integration Vol.22 No.1
The deregulation of financial services in the European Union and the development of information technology have fostered recent changes in the European banking industry. This process, that has affected market competition, has been accelerated by the establishment of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). This paper makes a comparative analysis of the market conditions for banking sectors in Spain and France (EMU participation countries) and UK and Denmark (not participating in EMU) in order to assess the effects of the adoption of the Single currency in banking market conditions. This comparison is made distinguishing between commercial banks and non-profit financial institutions.

in the microbial biomass and community structure found in sediment of heavily polluted bays and the adjacent unpolluted areas were examined using phospholipid fatty acid analysis. Total microbial biomass and microbial community structure were responding to environmental determinants, sediment grain size, depth of sediment, and pollution due to petroleum hydrocarbons. The marker fatty acids of microeukaryotes and prokaryotes-aerobic, anaerobic, and sulfate-reducing bacteria- were detected in sediments of the areas studied. Analysis of the fatty acid profiles revealed wide variations in the community structure in sediments, depending on the extent of pollution, sediment depth, and sediment grain size. The abundance of specific bacterial fatty acids points to the dominance of prokaryotic organisms, whose composition differed among the stations. Fatty acid distributions in sediments suggest the high contribution of aerobic bacteria. Sediments of polluted sites were significantly enriched with anaerobic bacteria in comparison with clean areas. The contribution of this bacterial group increased with the depth of sediments. Anaerobic bacteria were predominantly present in muddy sediments, as evidenced from the fatty acid profiles. Relatively high concentrations of marker fatty acids of sulfate-reducing bacteria were associated with organic pollution in this site. Specific fatty acids of microeukaryotes were more abundant in surface sediments than in deeper sediment layers. Among the microeukaryotes, diatoms were an important component. Significant amounts of bacterial biomass, the predominance of bacterial biomarker fatty acids with abundance of anaerobic and sulfate-reducing bacteria are indicative of a prokaryotic consortium responsive to organic pollution.
