Spanish to English: Asymmetric Catalysis General field: Tech/Engineering Detailed field: Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng
Source text - Spanish Dentro de esta última, la estrategia más interesante es la catálisis asimétrica. Un catalizador es una sustancia, que sin formar parte de los reactivos de una transformación química, participa en la misma, haciéndola posible multitud de veces. Idealmente debería ser recuperado inalterado y durar infinitamente.
Si se utilizan catalizadores quirales, es posible obtener productos ópticamente activos a partir de otros que no lo son, con formación preferente de uno de los dos enantiómeros. En la naturaleza, las enzimas son los catalizadores responsables de la síntesis de compuestos ópticamente activos y por tanto, también son quirales. Desde un punto de vista químico, el catalizador puede ser una molécula orgánica, un centro metálico y también un enzima.
Una estrategia particularmente atractiva dentro de la catálisis asimétrica consiste en transformar una mezcla racémica en un único producto enantiopuro utilizando un catalizador quiral. Esto ocurre debido a que este último es capaz de reaccionar de forma preferente con uno de los enantiómeros de la mezcla y además, existe un mecanismo que permite que ambos enantiómeros se interconviertan entre sí en presencia del catalizador. Mientras que sin este mecanismo solo se podría alcanzar hasta un 50 % del producto deseado, con esta estrategia se puede llegar a rendimientos cercanos al 100%. Esto se denomina proceso estereoconvergente.
Translation - English As part of the asymmetric synthesis, the most interesting strategy is the asymmetric catalysis. A catalyst is a substance that, although it does not form part of the reagents of a chemical transformation, participates in it, allowing it to occur many times. Ideally, it must be recovered unchanged and last endlessly.
If chiral catalysts are used, it is feasible to produce products that are optically active based on others that are not, with the preferential formation of one of two enantiomers. In nature, enzymes are catalysts in charge of the synthesis of optically active compounds, and they are also chiral. From a chemical perspective, the catalyst can be an organic molecule, a metallic center and also an enzyme.
A specifically attractive strategy of asymmetric catalysis is the transformation of a racemic mixture into a single enantiopure product, by using a chiral catalyst. This occurs since the latter is able to preferentially react with one of the enantiomers of the mixture and also because there is a mechanism that allows both enantiomers to interconvert into each other when there is a catalyst. Whereas without this mechanism only a 50% of the sought-after product could be obtained, with this strategy, yields of around 100% could be achieved. This process is called a stereoconvergent process.

English to Spanish: Python - How to build first Slack Bot General field: Tech/Engineering Detailed field: Computers: Software
Source text - English The Slack client connects to the Slack RTM API. Once it's connected, it calls a Web API method (auth.test) to find Starter Bot's user ID.
Each bot user has a user ID for each workspace the Slack App is installed within. Storing this user ID will help the program understand if someone has mentioned the bot in a message.
Next, the program enters an infinite loop, where each time the loop runs the client receives any events that arrived from Slack's RTM API. Notice that before the loop ends, the program pauses for one second so that it doesn't loop too fast and waste your CPU time.
For each event that is read, the parse_bot_commands() function determines if the event contains a command for Starter Bot. If it does, then command will contain a value and the handle_command() function determines what to do with the command.
We've laid the groundwork for processing Slack events and calling Slack methods in the program. Next, add three new functions above the previous snippet to complete handling commands:
Translation - Spanish El cliente de Slack se conecta con el API de RTM. Después de este paso, llama a un método del API Web API (auth.test) con el fin de encontrar la ID de usuario de Starter Bot.
Cada usuario de bot tiene una ID de usuario asignada a cada espacio de trabajo en el cual está instalado el aplicativo Slack.
A continuación, el programa ingresa a un bucle infinito, en el cual, por cada ejecución del bucle, el cliente recibe cualquier evento que llegó del API de RTM de Slack. Tome en cuenta de que antes de que termine el bucle, el programa se detiene por un segundo para que el bucle no se ejecute muy rápidamente y se desperdicie el tiempo de la UCP (unidad central de procesamiento).
Para cada evento leído, la función parse_bot_commands() determina si el evento incluye un comando de Starter Bot. Si es que está incluido, el command (comando) tendrá un valor y la función handle_command() determina lo que se hará con el comando.
Hemos establecido las bases para procesar eventos de Slack y llamar a métodos de Slack desde el programa. Ahora, agregue tres funciones nuevas encima del fragmento de código con el objetivo de completar los comandos de manipulación:
