Centres de Recerca de Catalunya (CERCA)
La Institució CERCA és el mitjà propi i servei tècnic de l’Administració de la Generalitat de Catalunya per al seguiment, suport i facilitació de l’activitat dels centres de recerca del sistema CERCA.
Constituïda com a fundació el 16 de juny de 2010, té per missió garantir un desenvolupament adequat del sistema de centres de recerca català; afavorir i maximitzar les sinergies, la coordinació entre els centres i la cooperació estratègica; millorar el posicionament, la visibilitat i l’impacte de la recerca duta a terme i facilitar la interlocució amb els diferents agents públics i privats.

Directed hydrogen isotope exchange strategies have become an essential tool for accessing isotopically labelled organic scaffolds and interrogating the mechanisms of transition metal-catalysed C–H activation. However, the ...
Resource depletion, waste management, and climate change drives innovation towards bioplastics. Among the renewable cellulose derivatives, hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) stands out for its biocompatibility, ease of processing, ...
Methanol is a valuable chemical energy carrier and C1 feedstock, with significant research efforts directed toward its production via CO2 hydrogenation. Here, we report a surfactant-free, non-aqueous synthesis of Cu–ZnO ...
In the realm of organic chemistry, carbocations play a pivotal role as highly reactive intermediates in the synthesis of complex molecules. While cyclase enzymes construct terpenoid natural products through carbocation ...
We report a method for the base-mediated transformation of ether-tethered acrylic ester-based cyclic carbonates into functionalized cyclic acetals. The protocol builds on the use of hydroxyalkyl-substituted cyclic carbonates ...
Identifying molecular structures from vibrational spectra is central to chemical analysis but remains challenging due to spectral ambiguity and the limitations of single-modality methods. While deep learning has advanced ...
Herein, we disclose an enantioconvergent carbamoylation of racemic aziridines enabled by a dual catalytic strategy. The method offers a new entry point to highly enantioenriched β-amino amides from simple precursors and ...
We report the quantitative self-assembly of an endohedrally functionalized octa-imine cage from two calix[4]pyrrole scaffolds via dynamic covalent chemistry. The cavity combines size and shape complementarity with enzyme-like ...
The intentional use of biological control agents to manage arthropod pests dates back to as early as 304 AD, when Chinese farmers used weaver ants to manage citrus pests. Over time, biological control has evolved into ...
The alfalfa weevil Hypera postica Gyllenhal (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is one of the most destructive alfalfa pests in the world, resulting in substantial economic losses. However, the amount of damage can be reduced by ...
Understanding the relationship of root traits and crop performance under varying environmental conditions facilitates the exploitation of root characteristics in breeding and variety testing to maintain crop yields under ...
Growing Degree Days (GDD) are a fundamental tool for supporting crop and water management, estimating crop development and growth and, in particular, defining the crop coefficient curve, thus computing crop evapotranspiration ...
The increasing pressure on water resources caused by agricultural intensification, the rising food demand and climate change requires new irrigation strategies that improve the sustainability and efficiency of agricultural ...
La influenza aviar (InAv) o "gripe aviar" es una enfermedad viral aguda que afecta mayoritariamente las aves domesticas y esta causada por virus de influenza tipo A. A lo largo de las ultimas decadas, el numero y extension ...
Traditional methods for fruit quality assessment are labor-intensive, destructive, and result in the loss of marketable produce. Spectroscopy, especially near-infrared (NIR) and mid-infrared (MIR), has helped in the ...
Interfacial hydration layers critically determine energy and chemical conversion processes, notably influencing the kinetics of electrocatalytic reactions. Fundamental mechanisms of reactions such as CO2 electroreduction ...
Five different species of Gambierdiscus have been identified in La Réunion (G. belizeanus, G. balechii, G. pacificus, G. silvae and G. ribotype 2) by morphological observations in Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and ...
Fish larval rearing represents a critical stage due to the extreme fragility of larvae, small size, and specific nutritional needs during rapid growth. Successful larviculture requires understanding ontogenetic changes to ...
Background/Objectives: Maternally derived antibody (MDA) levels of porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) may eventually interfere with humoral response and vaccination efficacy. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a ...
