description: Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in mice using DNA-fragmented sperm (DFS) has been linked to an increased risk of
genetic and epigenetic abnormalities both in embryos and offspring. This study examines: whether embryonic stem cells
(ESCs) derived from DFS-ICSI embryos reflect the abnormalities observed in the DFS-ICSI progeny; the effect of DFS-ICSI on
male fertility; and whether DFS-ICSI induces epigenetic changes that lead to a modified heritable phenotype. DFS-ICSIproduced
embryos showed a low potential to generate ESC lines. However, these lines had normal karyotype accompanied
by early gene expression alterations, though a normal expression pattern was observed after several passages. The fertility
of males in the DFS-ICSI and control groups was compared by mating test. Sperm quantity, vaginal plug and pregnancy
rates were significantly lower for the DFS-ICSI-produced males compared to in vivo-produced mice, while the number of
females showing resorptions was higher. The epigenetic effects of DFS-ICSI were assessed by analyzing the phenotype
rendered by the Axin1Fu allele, a locus that is highly sensitive to epigenetic perturbations. Oocytes were injected with
spermatozoa from Axin1Fu/+ mice and the DFS-ICSI-generated embryos were transferred to females. A significantly higher
proportion of pups expressed the active kinky-tail epiallele in the DFS-ICSI group than the controls. In conclusion: 1) ESCs
cannot be used as a model of DFS-ICSI; 2) DFS-ICSI reduces sperm production and fertility in the male progeny; and 3) DFSICSI
affects the postnatal expression of a defined epigenetically sensitive allele and this modification may be inherited across
generations.

description: Οι τοπικές εδαφικές συνθήκες διαμορφώνουν το πλάτος και τα χαρακτηριστικά της αναμενόμενης ισχυρής σεισμικής κίνησης. Το υπέδαφος και οι ιδιότητές του καθορίζουν τη μεταβολή από θέση σε θέση του είδους και της έκτασης των σεισμικών βλαβών αναδεικνύοντας τη μεγάλη επιρροή στο μέγεθος και το φασματικό περιεχόμενο της εδαφικής κίνησης στην επιφάνεια. Τα τελευταία 40 χρόνια μεγάλος αριθμός ερευνών πραγματοποιήθηκε στην εκτίμηση της σημασίας των διαφόρων παραγόντων που σχετίζονται με τη σεισμική απόκριση. Παρόλα αυτά υπάρχει ακόμη πολύς δρόμος ακόμη μέχρι η επιρροή των τοπικών συνθηκών στη σεισμική κίνηση να περιγραφεί στους αντισεισμικούς κανονισμούς ή ακόμη σε μικροζωνικές μελέτες και ιδιαίτερης σημασίας έργα πολιτικού μηχανικού. Μια σημαντική αιτία για αυτό είναι η ελλιπής γνώση της εδαφικής δομής ως προς τη γεωμετρία και τις δυναμικές ιδιότητές της σε συνδυασμό με υψηλής ποιότητας καταγραφές σε διαφορετικές εδαφικές συνθήκες. Η περίπτωση της Θεσσαλονίκης προσφέρει τη δυνατότητα για μια ολοκληρωμένη μελέτη της σεισμικής απόκρισης που θα έχει ως βάση την πολύ καλή γνώση της εδαφικής δομής και των δυναμικών ιδιοτήτων των εδαφικών στρώσεων. Η βασική παράμετρος που περιγράφει την ενίσχυση στα αναμενόμενα σεισμικά φορτία που δίδονται στους σύγχρονους αντισεισμικούς κανονισμούς είναι ο συντελεστής ενίσχυσης ο οποίος εξαρτάται τόσο από την περίοδο όσο και από το πλάτος της επιτάχυνσης
description: Local ground conditions shape the amplitude and characteristics of expected strong seismic motion. The subsoil and its properties determine the variation from place to place in the type and extent of seismic damage highlighting the great influence on the magnitude and spectral content of ground motion at the surface. In the last 40 years a large amount of research has been carried out on the assessment of the importance of various factors related to the seismic response. However, there is still a long way to go before the influence of local conditions on seismic motion is described in earthquake regulations or even in microzonations studies and major civil engineering projects. An important reason for this is the incomplete knowledge of the soil structure in terms of its geometry and dynamic properties combined with high-quality recordings in different soil conditions. The case of Thessaloniki offers the possibility for a comprehensive study of the seismic response that will be based on a very good knowledge of the soil structure and the dynamic properties of the soil layers. The key parameter describing the amplification to the expected seismic loads given in the modern seismic regulations is the amplification factor which depends on both the period and the amplitude of the acceleration

description: A novel printed film consisting of multiwalled carbon nanotubes was fabricated on a polyethylene terephthalate substrate by means of a mass flexographic printing process. Potential applications of this film for electrochemical biosensing were examined through the oxidation of acetaminophen, dopamine, and uric acid in phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). The results demonstrate that the printed carbon nanotube film exhibits an enhanced electrochemical response towards these molecules. Dopamine and uric acid did not interfere with each other, and thus, their simultaneous determination may be performed. The results suggest the mass flexographic printing technique has potential application for the construction of low-cost, precise, and disposable multiwalled carbon nanotube films.

Ειδικότερα, κατά τη διεξαγωγή της συγκεκριμένης έρευνας χρειάστηκε, αρχικά, να ελεγχθούν οι ερωτήσεις που περιλαμβάνονται στο ερωτηματολόγιο της Διεθνούς Κοινωνικής Έρευνας ISSP 2022, ώστε να διαπιστωθεί η καταλληλότητά τους για το ελληνικό κοινό και να μεταφραστούν στην ελληνική γλώσσα. Οι ερωτήσεις που περιλαμβάνονται στο ερωτηματολόγιο σχετίζονται με τον γάμο, τα εναλλακτικά μοντέλα οικογένειας, τα παιδιά, την κοινωνική πολιτική, την κατανομή της αμειβόμενης και της μη αμειβόμενης εργασίας σε μοντέλα οικογενειών, τη διαχείριση του οικογενειακού εισοδήματος και των εργασιών του σπιτιού, τη σύγκρουση εργασίας-οικογένειας κτλ. Στην εργασία, στη συνέχεια, περιγράφεται αναλυτικά η διαδικασία επιλογής των ερωτήσεων, οι λόγοι επιλογής τους από την αρμόδια συντακτική ομάδα του ISSP και η διαδικασία υλοποίησης του ερωτηματολογίου σε ελληνικό επίπεδο. Τέλος, γίνεται παρουσίαση των πινάκων συνάφειας ή διπλής εισόδου και πινάκων ανεξαρτησίας, οι οποίοι δημιουργήθηκαν, με σκοπό την εξέταση πιθανών συσχετίσεων μεταξύ ορισμένων μεταβλητών της έρευνας
description: The aim of the present thesis was to collect and investigate data, which will result from the responses of the Greek public to questionnaire, based on the International Social Survey 2022, regarding to the Family and Changing Gender Roles (Family and Changing Gender Roles V-2022). In particular, during the conduct of the research, it was necessary, firstly, to check the questions included in the questionnaire of the International Social Survey 2022, in order to establish their suitability for the Greek public and to translate them into the Greek language. These questions are about marriage, alternative family models, children, social policy, the allocation between paid and unpaid work in model families, managing family income and housework, work-family conflict etc. The paper, subsequently, describes in detail the process of selecting the questions, the reasoning of them and the process of implementing the questionnaire to the Greek citizens who participated in the survey. Finally, there is a presentation of Crosstabs and Chi-Square Tests created, in order to examine possible correlations between certain survey variables

description: This research work examines the way of organizing the pilot research that will be carried out within the framework of the International Social Survey Programme (ISSP) and has as its focus the issue of digital societies (Digital Societies). The specific survey is planned to be conducted in 2024, while the pilot survey was carried out in Greece in 2023. The basic exploratory hypothesis of this paper is the interpretation of political behavior based on the answers of Greek citizens to specific questions of the questionnaire on the digital societies concerning, for example, personal access and use of the Internet and digital technologies, the impact of digitization on communication patterns, citizens' participation in the digital age and their attitudes towards artificial intelligence (AI). For this purpose, a first analysis of the pilot survey data will be carried out using the statistical data analysis program, SPSS. In order to select the questions that will be used in the work, it becomes necessary in the first phase to translate the questionnaire into Greek and then to select the questions that will be appropriately applied to the Greek data

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: The use of sheep wool as reinforcement of cement in order to produce mortar or plaster involves several advantages for environment and energy. Moreover, in several regions it is treated as a waste and, consequently, its employ is characterized by low cost. Aim of this paper is to evaluate the influence of wool fibres on thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of cement. The samples were prepared using wool fibres, obtained from a breed of Sicilian sheep, with three different length (i.e. 1 mm, 6 mm and 20 mm). Moreover, in order to evaluate the influence of fibre content, the samples were prepared by varying the fibres weight fraction up to maximum level. The thermal conductivity of samples was analyzed by using a heat flow meter, whereas the mechanical behavior was studied through compressive tests. In order to validate the thermal measurements, two theoretical models were applied. The results showed that wool fibres could be considered as a valid reinforcement in cementitious matrix to obtain mortars or plasters with both enhanced thermal insulation properties and good mechanical ones.

description: Palaeoproterozoic mafic dike swarms of different ages are well exposed in the eastern Dharwar craton of India. Available U-Pb mineral ages on these dikes indicate four discrete episodes, viz. (1) ~2.37 Ga Bangalore swarm, (2) ~2.21 Ga Kunigal swarm, (3) ~2.18 Ga Mahbubnagar swarm, and (4) ~1.89 Ga Bastar-Dharwar swarm. These are mostly sub-alkaline tholeiitic suites, with ~1.89 Ga samples having a slightly higher concentration of high-field strength elements than other swarms with a similar MgO contents. Mg number (Mg#) in the four swarms suggest that the two older swarms were derived from primary mantle melts, whereas the two younger swarms were derived from slightly evolved mantle melt. Trace element petrogenetic models suggest that magmas of the ~2.37 Ga swarm were generated within the spinel stability field by ~15–20% melting of a depleted mantle source, whereas magmas of the other three swarms may have been generated within the garnet stability field with percentage of melting lowering from the ~2.21 Ga swarm (~25%), ~2.18 Ga swarm (~15–20%), to ~1.89 Ga swarm (~10–12%). These observations indicate that the melting depth increased with time for mafic dike magmas. Large igneous province (LIP) records of the eastern Dharwar craton are compared to those of similar mafic events observed from other shield areas. The Dharwar and the North Atlantic cratons were probably together at ~2.37 Ga, although such an episode is not found in any other craton. The ~2.21 Ga mafic magmatic event is reported from the Dharwar, Superior, North Atlantic, and Slave cratons, suggesting the presence of a supercontinent, ‘Superia’. It is difficult to find any match for the ~2.18 Ga mafic dikes of the eastern Dharwar craton, except in the Superior Province. The ~1.88–1.90 Ga mafic magmatic event is reported from many different blocks, and therefore may not be very useful for supercontinent reconstructions.

Older adults at home frequently rely on ‘circles of support’ which range from relatives and neighbours, to the voluntary sector, social workers, paid carers, and medical professionals. Creating, maintaining, and coordinating these circles of support has often been done manually and in an ad hoc manner. We argue that a socio-technical system that assists in creating, maintaining, and coordinating circles of support is a key enabler of community healthcare for older adults.In this paper we propose a framework called SERVICE (Socio-Technical Resilience for the Vulnerable) to help represent, reason about, and coordinate these circles of support and strengthen their capacity to deal with variations in care needs and environment. The objective is to make these circles resilient to changes in the needs and circumstances of older adults. Early results show that older adults appreciate the ability to represent and reflect on their circle of support.

description: Thiazolidin-4-ones assembled through one-pot three-component (carbonyl compound, amine and ethyl mercaptoacetate) reactions in the presence of dicyclohexyl carbodiimide, on simultaneous treatment with dimethyl formamide dimethylacetal and Lawesson's reagent furnished 5-dimethylaminomethylene thiazolidin-4-thiones. These thiones on condensation with hydrazine derivatives afforded 2,5,6-trisubstituted-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]thiazoles 4 and not their possible 1,5,6-trisubstituted regioisomers 5. Results of single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies of thiazolidin-4-one 1b have been reported. The structures of all the synthesized compounds were established by spectral data. DFT studies on regioisomers were carried out using B3LYP with the 6-31G** basis set and carbon NMR shifts of 4 show good correlation with experimental values.

description: A review of the literature on the history of Trichomonas vaginalis and studies on differences among T. vaginalis strains was carried out. A need for the study of the characteristics that might help identification of trichomonads in general and T. vaginalis in particular was noted. Studies on isoenzyme variants revealed four enzymes that could be useful in distinguishing between different trichomonads and among different strains of T. vaginalis. These were lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, hexokinase and glucose phosphate isomerase. Using these four enzymes, it was possible to divide most strains of T. vaginalis into 5 groups. the isoenzyme results is discussed. It was possible to seek correlation between iso-enzyme differences and other biological properties such as concanavalin A-induced agglutination and generation time of the parasites; stroni correlation between these pro-perties and the previously divided group were found. Isoenzyme studies on flagellates isolated from faeces of monkey showed them to be very different from T. vaginalis; electron microscopy revealed that these organisms are probably a Trichomitus species. The results of isocnzyme and other studies on some unusual T. vaginalis strains are also discussed. Investigation into isolation, cloning and staining for light microscopy studies were also under-taken.
From back-arc rifting to arc accretion: the Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous evolution of the Guerrero terrane recorded by a major provenance change in sandstones from the Sierra de los Cuarzos area, central Mexico

description: The Guerrero terrane is composed of Middle Jurassic–Lower Cretaceous arc assemblages that were rifted from the North American continental mainland during Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous back-arc spreading within the Arperos Basin, and subsequently accreted back to the continental margin in the late Aptian. The Sierra de los Cuarzos area is located just 50 km east of the Guerrero terrane suture belt and, therefore, its stratigraphic record should be highly sensitive to first-order tectonic changes. Two Upper Jurassic–Lower Cretaceous clastic units were recognized in the Sierra de los Cuarzos area. The Sierra de los Cuarzos Formation is the lowermost exposed stratigraphic unit. Petrographic data and U-Pb zircon ages suggest that the Sierra de los Cuarzos Formation was derived from quartz-rich sedimentary and igneous sources within the North American continental mainland. The Sierra de los Cuarzos Formation is overlain by the Pelones Formation, which is composed of volcanoclastic sandstones derived from a mix of sources that include the mafic arc assemblages of the Guerrero terrane and quartz-rich sedimentary and volcanic rocks exposed in the continental mainland. The provenance change documented in the Sierra de los Cuarzos area suggests that the Pelones Formation was deposited when the Arperos Basin was closed and the Guerrero terrane was colliding with the North American continental mainland. Based on these data, we interpret the Pelones Formation as the syn-tectonic stratigraphic record associated with the accretion of the Guerrero terrane.

description: The Guerrero terrane is composed of Middle Jurassic–Lower Cretaceous arc assemblages that were rifted from the North American continental mainland during Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous back-arc spreading within the Arperos Basin, and subsequently accreted back to the continental margin in the late Aptian. The Sierra de los Cuarzos area is located just 50 km east of the Guerrero terrane suture belt and, therefore, its stratigraphic record should be highly sensitive to first-order tectonic changes. Two Upper Jurassic–Lower Cretaceous clastic units were recognized in the Sierra de los Cuarzos area. The Sierra de los Cuarzos Formation is the lowermost exposed stratigraphic unit. Petrographic data and U-Pb zircon ages suggest that the Sierra de los Cuarzos Formation was derived from quartz-rich sedimentary and igneous sources within the North American continental mainland. The Sierra de los Cuarzos Formation is overlain by the Pelones Formation, which is composed of volcanoclastic sandstones derived from a mix of sources that include the mafic arc assemblages of the Guerrero terrane and quartz-rich sedimentary and volcanic rocks exposed in the continental mainland. The provenance change documented in the Sierra de los Cuarzos area suggests that the Pelones Formation was deposited when the Arperos Basin was closed and the Guerrero terrane was colliding with the North American continental mainland. Based on these data, we interpret the Pelones Formation as the syn-tectonic stratigraphic record associated with the accretion of the Guerrero terrane.

description: Traditionally, architectural materials performance was the key point for developing materials; but nowadays, other criteria’s as sustainability, availability and recyclability are being considered. By the other hand, the addition of fibres as polymers, steel or glass on cement based materials was proved to enhance their performance in terms of ductility, tensile strength, toughness, fatigue strength, impact resistance and energy absorption capacity of matrices. Actually, the use of vegetable fibres as reinforcement for cement composites is particularly attractive since they are widely available, are biodegradable, and inexpensive. The attractive mechanical and physical properties joint to their environmental benefits combination are the main drivers to use them as alternatives for conventional reinforcements. Bio-fibres as flax fibres have been large used mainly for automotive products. Plus other mentioned properties, the low density of these vegetable fibre composites induces to consider them as an interesting architectural material for envelope skill applications. This research deals with the manufacturing of façade pieces from white Portland cement and treated flax nonwoven fibre composites. The study of the physical properties, i.e. flexural, water permeability, dimensional change of these façade components were also analysed before and after 60 days outdoor exposition.

description: Motor impairment is one of the most common defects after stroke, which could seriously affect the life quality of stroke patients. Exercise intervention gradually becomes a popular alternative rehabilitation therapy because of its safety and applicability. To systematically assess the effect of Qigong exercise on motor function in stroke patients. Randomized controlled trials that evaluated the effect of Qigong on motor function of stroke patients were obtained from PubMed and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure through May 2022. Mean values and standard deviations of the post-intervention score in both experimental group and control group were collected to calculate the mean difference (MD) and corresponkding 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of each study, which were quantificationally summarized using the Review Manager 5.3 software. Nineteen randomized controlled trials enrolling 1487 stroke patients were included. Pooled results indicated that Qigong exercise had beneficial effect on balance function (Berg Balance Scale [MD: 7.56, 95% CI: 4.09–11.02]), limb motor function (Fugl-Meyer Assessment [total score: MD: 7.54, 95% CI: 6.38–8.69; upper limb: MD: 3.57, 95% CI: 0.71–6.43; lower limb: MD: 2.44, 95% CI: 0.59–4.29]) and walking function (6-min walking test [MD: 62.21, 95% CI: 11.70–112.73]) of stroke patients. It was also found to be associated with an improvement in trunk function as indicated by the Trunk Impairment Scale. Available evidence supported potential benefits of Qigong exercise for improving motor functions of stroke patients. As a safe and widely applicable exercise, Qigong is worthy of further promotion in the rehabilitation of stroke patients.

description: The incidence of stroke in younger adults is rising, particularly among women living with stroke who face multiple physical, psychological, and social challenges that negatively affect their quality of life. Consequently, women’s roles in life would be negatively affected at home, work, and in society. This study aimed to explore the lived experience of women suffering from a stroke in Jordan. This paper uses semi-structured interviews to present a descriptive phenomenological study of eight young women suffering from a stroke. The Colaizzi (1978) method was used to analyze interview transcripts. Three main emerging themes that describe the lived experiences of women with a stroke: 1) Experiencing stroke as a woman; 2) Stroke and the intimate relationship with the spouse; 3) Challenges of women’s journey while receiving health care. After their stroke, Jordanian women have experienced profound, interrelated, and multifaceted difficulties in all aspects of their life and relationships inside and outside the family. Whilst healthcare providers recognize these stressful symptoms; however, there is a lack of attention and care to meet these needs.

description: Intermolecular interactions in three dimers, CO···H2O, CO···SO2, and CO···NO+, were studied at the CCSD(T) level of theory, using a series of the augmented correlation consistent polarised basis sets. Interaction energy and its components as well as vibrational spectra for local minima were computed using both harmonic and anharmonic approximations. While CO···H2O and CO···SO2 are weakly bound with the binding energies −7.4 and −6.4 kJ/mol, CO···NO+ is much more stable with the binding energy of −32.8 kJ/mol corresponding to ΔG = −4.7 kJ/mol at 254 K.

description: An N3O Schiff base (L), 1 : 1 condensate of benzil monohydrazone and 4-pyridine carboxaldehyde, and its Zn(II), Cd(II), and Ag(I) complexes were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses and various spectroscopic techniques. The crystal structures of [ZnL2Br2] (1), [CdL2I2]·CH2Cl2, (2)·CH2Cl2, and [Ag(L)2]ClO4 (3) have been determined using X-ray crystallography. The Zn(II) and Cd(II) complexes show a tetrahedral configuration whereas in the asymmetric unit of 3, two independent coordination units of Ag(I) are present. Carbonyl–silver interaction, weak C–H⋯O interaction, and also π–π interaction are present in 3 in the solid state. The synthesized complexes have antibacterial activity against Klebsiella pneumoniae 114, Escherichia coli K88, Salmonella typhi ATCC 34, Bacillus subtilis UC564, and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923. The results showed that in some cases the antibacterial activities of the complexes were comparable to standard antibiotics Tetracycline and Streptomycin. The antifungal activities of the complexes were also studied for Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus oryzae, Penicillium notatum, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. MIC values of 1, 2·CH2Cl2, and 3 are less than the Nystatin standard.

description: A recent study examines the features of a dusty Carreau nanofluid over a flat surface with allowance for mixed convection that is not linear and heat radiation. It also examines how these factors affect fluid movement due to temperature differences (thermal Marangoni effect). The change in surface tension levels causes Marangoni convection, which finds applications in scientific areas like making crystals, keeping soap bubbles steady, drying thin wafers and dry silicon. Similarity transformations have been incorporated to create ODEs from PDEs. The complex non-dimensional differential equations are then solved using a numerical method called shooting method (with RKF-45 approach). For the momentum and heat distribution analysis, physical parameters are expressed in detail. The findings show that the Marangoni flow makes heat move quicker. In the same way, there is a decrease in the fluid’s velocity due to magnetic effects.

description: [FeL3]·H2O (1) and [FeL2Q]·3H2O (2) (HL = sulfamethazine and HQ = 8-hydroxyquinoline) have been synthesized, characterized (elemental analysis, FT IR, UV–vis, TGA, magnetic and conductivity), and tested for their antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Theoretical calculations involving geometry optimization, natural orbital analysis, electronic spectra, and molecular electrostatic potential have been done at the DFT/B3LYP level of theory. The high 3d-electron contribution of 6.71 is accounted to L → dFe charge transfer. Coordination of HL to Fe(III) in 1 led to a significant decrease in the antibacterial activity, and presence of a secondary ligand in 2 completely abolished it.

description: The advantage of natural fiber reinforced cement composites (NFRC), especially flax fibers based composites, lies in the improvement of mechanical and thermal properties of the matrix, and in the reasonable cost. However, the wide use of these materials is hampered by their low stability. The natural fiber in the porous alkaline matrix is slowly damaged and the reinforcing effect of the fiber decreases. Fiber treatment can be used to improve aging of the NFRC. This approach can have the advantage of improving the fiber–matrix interface and the hydrophobicity of the fiber. Chemical grafting of functional groups at the surface of fibers is a promising process for improving durability and adhesion of flax fibers used as reinforcement material in a cementitious matrix. This research gives an insight into the effect of chemical modification of flax fibers by two different sizings: (1) alkyltrialkoxysilane (RSi(OR′)3) and (2) zirconium butoxide (Zr(OCH2CH2CH2CH3)4). Chemical treatments at the fiber surface were characterized by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Moisture absorption measurements at room temperature and 80% of relative humidity were carried out in order to study the hydrophobicity of the modified fibers. Tensile tests were performed on fibers to determine the sizing effects on mechanical properties of the treated flax fibers. Fibers degradation was evaluated by measuring the variations in tensile strength after exposing them to alkaline solutions. The results show significant effects of the surface treatments on the hydrophobicity of the flax fibers and the prevention of their degradation in a cementitious simulated environment. In particular, surface treatment with zirconates significantly improves the water resistance of the fibers, while silane efficiently improves the resistance of the fibers against degradation when immersed in an alkaline solution.
