ABSTRACT

The objective was to evaluate the effects of different levels of banana peel inclusion on the physiological variables of lactating F1 Holstein × Zebu cows. Ten cows distributed in two 5 × 5 Latin squares were used. Five experimental diets were tested: sorghum silage (control group); and the addition of 15%, 30%, 45%, and 60% of banana peel to replace sorghum silage. The experiment lasted 80 days. The environmental and physiological variables of the animals were measured. The Black Globe-Humidity Index presented an alert situation in the morning shift and a dangerous situation in the afternoon shift. The respiratory rate was not influenced by the levels of banana peel inclusion (P > 0.05) in the morning shift. However, it was influenced (P < 0.05) in the afternoon shift. The levels of banana peel inclusion in the diet did not affect the rectal temperature. Under the study environmental conditions, the level of up to 60% of banana peel replacing sorghum silage did not alter the physiological variables of thermoregulation in F1 Holstein × Zebu cows.


Objetivou-se avaliar níveis de inclusão da casca de banana sobre as variáveis fisiológicas de vacas F1 Holandesas × Zebu em lactação. Foram utilizadas 10 vacas distribuídas em dois quadrados latinos 5×5. Sendo cinco dietas experimentais: silagem de sorgo (grupo controle); e a inserção de 15, 30, 45 e 60% da casca de banana em substituição a silagem de sorgo. O experimento teve duração de 80 dias. Mensuraram-se as variáveis ambientais e fisiológicas dos animais. O índice de temperatura de globo negro e umidade encontrada no turno matutino apresentou uma situação de alerta e no turno vespertino uma situação perigosa. A frequência respiratória foi influenciada pelos níveis de inclusão de casca de banana no turno vespertino. A temperatura retal não foi influenciada pelos níveis de inclusão de casca de banana na dieta. Sob as condições ambientais estudadas, o nível de até 60% de casca de banana, em substituição a silagem de sorgo, não alterou as variáveis fisiológicas de termorregulação em vacas F1 Holandesas × Zebu.

ABSTRACT

We studied the molecular taxonomy and diversity of cultivable rock fungi from Antarctic islands. From 50 rock samples, 386 fungal isolates were obtained and identified as 33 taxa of 20 genera. The genera Cladophialophora, Cladosporium, Cyphellophora, Eichleriella, Paracladophialophora, and Penicillium displayed the highest densities. Ecological diversity indices showed that the fungal assemblages are diverse and rich with low dominance. The genera Cladophialophora, Cladosporium, and Penicillium showed a broad distribution from rocks of the various islands. One hundred and fifty-nine fungi, grown at 37 °C, were identified as Penicillium chrysogenum, Fusarium sp., and Rhodotorula mucilaginosa. One hundred and three fungi displayed haemolytic activity, 81 produced proteinase, 9 produced phospholipase, and 25 presented dimorphism and a spore diameter ≤ 4 µm. The Antarctic Peninsula region appears to be under the effects of global climate changes, which may expose and accelerate the rock's weathering processes, and expose and release cryptic fungi and other microbes, especially those with innate pathogenic potential, previously arrested in rocks. Consequently, these rocks and their particles may represent a vehicle for the dispersal of microbial propagules, including those able to spread pathogens, along, across, and out of Antarctica.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to evaluate the behavioral and physiological responses of dairy cows and their interaction with the milker in two types of milking systems. The experiment was conducted in two farms, in the Coração de Jesus city, Brazil, where the surface temperature (TS, °C), rectal temperature (TR, °C), respiratory rate (RR, breaths.min-1) and heart rate (HR, beats.min-1) of 44 crossbred cows during the morning shift on twelve days of data collection at each farm. It was monitored the meteorological variables: the black globe temperature (TGN, °C), air temperature (TAR, °C), relative humidity (RH, %) and wind speed (V, m.s-1). Observations about human behavior, negative patterns (tapping, yelling, and pushing) and positive patterns (talking, groping, and naming) were made without people being aware of their nature. The behavioral data observed in the animals were: vocalization (VOC), defecation (DEF), micturition (MIC) and movement (MOV) and milking time (TOR) was also recorded. The physiological variables were significant among farms, except heart rate. The talking, naming, pushing and shouting actions were not significant, only groping and hitting. The behavior occurrences VOC, MIC, and MOV of cows were low. The TO presented a positive correlation (P <0.01) with TS, TR, and HR and negative correlation (P <0.01) with RR. Under the conditions of this experiment, the type of milking system influenced the physiological responses. The milking system of type "bucket at the bottom" provided greater contact between the milker and the cow, leading to a greater negative interaction reflected by the defecation behavior.(AU)

ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito do material genético, clones e espécies, e da classe de diâmetro nas características de crescimento, composição química, densidade básica e a estimativa de massa seca de madeira. Foram avaliados quatro clones e cinco espécies, aos quatro anos de idade, de Eucalyptus procedentes da empresa RIMA Industrial S.A. Foram avaliadas cinco árvores por clone e espécie em três e quatro classes diamétricas, respectivamente. Avaliaram-se as características individuais de crescimento da árvore, a densidade básica, a estimativa de massa seca, o teor de lignina, extrativos totais, holocelulose e cinzas. O volume, com e sem casca, e a estimativa de massa seca apresentaram efeito significativo de material genético (clone e espécie) e classe diamétrica. O teor de lignina não foi influenciado significativamente pelo material genético e classe diamétrica. A densidade básica apresentou efeito significativo de classe diamétrica para os clones e de material genético para as espécies. O teste de identidade de modelos somente foi não significativo para a estimativa de massa seca para as espécies, possibilitando usar a equação comum independente da espécie. Os clones apresentaram madeira mais homogênea, com menor densidade básica, extrativos totais e lignina total e maior teor de holocelulose, características mais adequadas à produção de polpa celulósica. As espécies apresentaram madeira mais heterogênea, com maior densidade básica, estimativa de massa seca, extrativos totais e lignina total e menor teor de cinzas e holocelulose, características desejáveis à produção de bioenergia.(AU)


This research aimed to determine the basic density, the estimate of dry mass and the chemical composition of clones and Eucalyptus species. Four clones and five species of Eucalyptus were appraised, with four years old, coming from the RIMA Industrial Company S.A. Five trees were sampled for clone and species in three and four diametric classes, respectively. Wood characteristics as the basic density, the insoluble and soluble lignin in acid sulfuric, extractive total and ash content in the wood were available. The results showed that the volume, with or without bark, and estimated dry mass showed significant effects of genetic material (clone and species) and diameter class. The lignin content was not significantly influenced by both genetic material and diameter class. Wood basic density had a significant effect of diameter class for clones and genetic material for the species. The identity test for linear models was only not significant for estimated dry mass of the species, indicating to be possible to use the common equation independent of the species. The clones showed a more homogeneous wood with lower average basic density, extractives and total lignin content and higher holocellulose content, characteristics which are suitable for pulp production. The wood species showed more heterogeneous with highest average basic density, estimated dry weight, total lignin and extractives content and lower ash and holocellulose content, characteristics desirable for bioenergy production.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Anopheles (Kerteszia) cruzii has been implicated as the primary vector of human and simian malarias out of the Brazilian Amazon and specifically in the Atlantic Forest regions. The presence of asymptomatic human cases, parasite-positive wild monkeys and the similarity between the parasites infecting them support the discussion whether these infections can be considered as a zoonosis. Although many aspects of the biology of An. cruzii have already been addressed, studies conducted during outbreaks of malaria transmission, aiming at the analysis of blood feeding and infectivity, are missing in the Atlantic Forest. This study was conducted in the location of Palestina, Juquitiba, where annually the majority of autochthonous human cases are notified in the Atlantic Forest of the state of São Paulo. Peridomiciliary sites were selected for collection of mosquitoes in a perimeter of up to 100 m around the residences of human malaria cases. The mosquitoes were analyzed with the purpose of molecular identification of blood-meal sources and to examine the prevalence of Plasmodium. A total of 13,441 females of An. (Ker.) cruzii were collected. The minimum infection rate was calculated at 0.03% and 0.01%, respectively, for P. vivax and P. malariae and only human blood was detected in the blood-fed mosquitoes analyzed. This data reinforce the hypothesis that asymptomatic human carriers are the main source of anopheline infection in the peridomiciliary area, making the probability of zoonotic transmission less likely to happen.

Anopheles (Kerteszia) cruzii é o vetor primário das malárias humana e simiana fora da Amazônia Brasileira e especificamente nas regiões de Mata Atlântica. A presença de casos humanos assintomáticos, macacos silvestres positivos para Plasmodium e a similaridade entre os parasitas que os infectam suportam a discussão se essas infecções podem ser consideradas como zoonoses. Embora muitos aspectos da biologia de An. cruzii já tenham sido abordados, estudos conduzidos durante surtos de transmissão de malária, visando a análise de repasto sanguíneo e infectividade, são ausentes na Mata Atlântica. Este estudo foi conduzido na localidade de Palestina, Juquitiba, Mata Atlântica do Estado de São Paulo, onde anualmente a maioria dos casos humanos autóctones é notificada. Locais em peridomicílio foram selecionados para coleta de mosquitos em um perímetro de até 100 m em torno das residências de casos humanos de malária e da floresta circundante. Os mosquitos foram analisados com o objetivo de identificação molecular das fontes de repasto sanguíneo e para examinar a prevalência de Plasmodium. Um total de 13.441 fêmeas de An. (Ker.) cruzii foi coletado. A taxa de infecção mínima foi calculada a 0,03% e 0,01%, respectivamente, para P. vivax e P. malariae e somente sangue humano foi detectado nos mosquitos analisados que se alimentaram com sangue. Nossos dados reforçam a hipótese de que os portadores humanos assintomáticos são a principal fonte de infecção para os anofelinos na área do peridomicílio, tornando a transmissão zoonótica improvável.

ABSTRACT

Autochthonous malaria cases in the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil, are distributed in mountainous regions surrounded by the Atlantic Forest. While some aspects of this disease are unclear, detection of possible vector species can help to elucidate epidemiological uncertainties. Entomological and natural infection studies were carried out using anophelines (Diptera: Culicidae) captured in the municipality of Santa Tereza, ES. Monthly captures were made from March 2004 to February 2006. CDC-CO2 traps were used from dusk (6:00 P.M.) to dawn (6:00 A.M.) to capture anophelines in the following habitats: near the houses, in open areas (at ground level) and inside, and at the margins of the forest (canopy and ground level). Shannon light traps were also used at the same locations of the CDC-CO2 traps. A total of 2,290 anophelines within 10 species were captured. The relative frequency of Anopheles (Kerteszia) cruzii Dyar & Knab / A.(K.) homunculus Komp was the highest, with the majority captured in CDC-CO2 traps installed in the forest canopy. The main species captured in Shannon traps was A.(Nyssorhynchus) strodei Root. The largest number of anophelines was captured from July to September and from 6:00 P.M. to 10:00 P.M. Anopheles (K.) cruzii is the probable vector for malaria transmission inside or near the Atlantic Forest fragments, but the role of other species cannot be ignored, as 53% of the sampled anophelines belonged to the subgenus Nyssorhynchus. The natural infection of A. cruzii, A. parvus (Chagas) and A. galvaoi Causey, Deane & Deane by Plasmodium vivax detected by PCR from DNA extracted from their thoraxes supports this view.

No Espírito Santo, os casos de malária autóctone estão distribuídos na região serrana próximo aos fragmentos de Mata Atlântica. Uma vez que alguns aspectos da doença são obscuros, a detecção das possíveis espécies de vetores pode auxiliar na elucidação de incertezas epidemiológicas. Estudos entomológicos e de infecção natural foram realizados com anofelinos (Diptera: Culicidae) capturados no município de Santa Tereza, ES. Capturas mensais foram realizadas de março de 2004 a fevereiro de 2006. Armadilhas CDC-CO2 foram utilizadas do crepúsculo (18:00h) ao amanhecer (6:00h), para capturar anofelinos nos seguintes habitats: próximo ao domicílio e área aberta (solo), margem e interior da mata (solo e copa). Armadilhas Shannon também foram utilizadas nos mesmos locais que as de CDC-CO2. Capturou-se o total de 2.290 anofelinos distribuídos em 10 espécies. A maior frequência relativa foi de Anopheles (Kerteszia) cruzii Dyar & Knab / A. (K.) homunculus Komp, sendo a maioria capturada em CDC-CO2 instalada na copa da mata. A principal espécie capturada em armadilha Shannon foi A.(Nyssorhynchus) strodei Root. O maior número de anofelinos foi capturado entre julho e setembro das 18:00h às 22:00h. Provavelmente A. (K.) cruzii é responsável pela transmissão da malária dentro ou próximo aos fragmentos de Mata Atlântica. Entretanto, a participação de outras espécies não pode ser ignorada, visto que 53 por cento da amostragem foi constituída pelo subgênero Nyssorhynchus. A detecção de Plasmodium vivax no tórax de A. cruzii, A. parvus (Chagas) e A. galvaoi Causey, Deane & Deane por meio de PCR reforça esse argumento.

ABSTRACT

Pentavalent antimonial drugs are habitually the first choice for treating leishmaniasis, although they possess well-known toxicity and may present some therapeutic failure. Lipid formulations of amphotericin B (LFAB) have been increasingly used for treating several types of leishmaniasis. However, the administration of such lipid formulations specifically to patients with cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is still rare, including immunocompromised patients to whom standard treatments are more frequently contraindicated. We describe here two cases of immunocompromised patients with CL, one of them with AIDS, representing the first case of AIDS and CL co-infection treated with LFAB described in the literature. The patient achieved therapeutic success with a total 1.500 mg dose of amphotericin B colloidal dispersion. The other had diabetes mellitus as well as kidney failure and was under dialysis, having obtained the healing of lesion with a total dose of 600 mg of liposomal amphotericin B. Thus, the authors suggest that LFAB can represent a safe, efficient and less toxic therapeutic alternative to pentavalent antimonials, as well as to the so-called second line drugs, pentamidine and amphotericin B deoxycholate.

ABSTRACT

Estudo exploratório, descritivo, qualitativo sobre práticas de cuidado da equipe de enfermagem para portadores de HIV/AIDS, que tem como objetivos: identificar o conhecimento da equipe de enfermagem e de clientes portadores de HIV/AIDS internados sobre AIDS e cuidado: e analisar de que modo se evidenciam as ações de cuidado e não cuidado. Participaram da entrevista 16 membros da equipe de enfermagem e 15 clientes internados em hospital de Florianópolis, em 2002. Como resultados, percebeu-se que o convívio com a doença continua produzindo reações diversas tanto para o indivíduo quanto para familiares, amigos, assim como para o próprio profissional, de acordo com o universo sociocultural de cada um. Percebe-se na relação de cuidado dificuldades no âmbito educativo, assim como no enfrentamento das situações mais críticas, destacando-se entre elas o cuidado na condição de terminalidade e morte.
