The present invention consists of functionalised NDs (fNDs) -housing stable fluorescent colour centres- with a bifunctional peptide capable of recognising extracellular amyloid-beta aggregates (Aß) and the accumulation thereof, which is considered the true cause of neuronal damage and cognitive decline in AD. fNDs are not cytotoxic and enable ultrasensitive detection (using picomolar Nd concentrations) of amyloid fibrils and amyloid aggregates. Moreover, the fluorescence of fNDs is more stable than the common colour markers used to dye Aß, such as Thioflavin T.

System and method for secure electronic communications through security hardware based on threshold cryptography
The present application is directed to a method and system for secure electronic communications using physically distributed security hardware and capable of operating by simulating a common or unitary HSM device. This is achieved by implementing the internal operations of the HSM using threshold cryptography on a set of internal nodes. In order to provide the necessary functionality, the keys and the required operations (such as the digital signature) are distributed among these nodes. In particular, the system provides digital signature capabilities through an efficient and modular application of Victor Shoup's schema referred to in the background. The digital signature process involves the steps of: 1) the signing agent receives a document to be signed and the alias of the key with which the document will be signed; 2) the signing agent place the document in the request queue; 3) the active nodes retrieve the request from the queue; 4) each node signs the request with its piece of key; 5) each node puts its partial signature in the response queue; 6) the signing agent receives the partial signatures and verifies them; 7) if at least k>n/2 valid partial signatures are received, the signature is validated and delivered to the client. Otherwise, an error message is generated.

Method for the early detection of acute kidney injury in critical patients, using fibroblast growth factor 23, klotho and erythropoietin as biomarkers
The invention is an ex vivo method for early detection of acute kidney injury in critical patients, which includes the measurements of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), klotho (KL) and erythropoietin (EPO) as biomarkers. These measurements are obtained from a venous blood sample or urine, and allow the determination of the following indicators: 1=([FGF23]p×[EPO]p); 2=([FGF23]p/[Klotho]p); 3=([EPO]p)/[Klotho]p); 4=([FGF23]p×[EPO]p)/[Klotho]p); where [X]p is defined as the plasma level of a specific molecule (X) which includes fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), klotho (KL) or erythropoietin (EPO). If the value of the indicator 1, 2, 3, 4 or two or more thereof, is equal or higher than a cut-off point (10 U), the indicator and/or indicators allow the identification of patients with high risk of developing AKI, with a high sensitivity/specificity. Therefore high levels of the indicator are associated to a high probability of the presence/development of AKI, which allows to perform specific clinical interventions for patients with AKI. If the value of the indicator 1, 2, 3, 4 or two or more thereof, is lower than the previously mentioned cut-off point, the probability of presence/development of AKI is low, therefore patients require only standard treatment.

MAGNETO-CENTRIFUGAL FLOTATION CELL FOR CONCENTRATING MATERIALS WHICH REDUCES WATER CONSUMPTION
The invention relates to a magneto-centrifugal flotation cell for ore concentration which reduces water consumption. A disadvantage of conventional flotation cells is the use of a large amount of water, some flotation cells requiring at least 60% water. The present invention uses ore pulp with increased density and viscosity, owing to the application of an axial magnetic field, wherein the Lorentz force, which is the force exerted by an electromagnetic field that receives a charged particle or an electrical current, can be used. The solution is a cell which, in addition to the forces that usually act on conventional flotation cells, uses external forces which, in principle, produce synergy in the separation of ore particles that have different gravitational and magnetic properties.
