Pesquisa do Paracoccidioides brasiliensis em aerossóis ambientais: padronização de metodologia e avaliação de amostras relacionadas ao habitat de tatus positivos

P.brasiliensis é o agente etiológico da Paracoccidioidomicose, micose sistêmica mais importante na América Latina. A fase saprofítica produtora dos propágulos infectantes e outros aspectos ecológicos deste patógeno são ainda pouco conhecidos, o que impede a adoção de medidas preventivas. Diversas evidências indicam que o fungo se desenvolve no solo, porém o seu isolamento a partir destes materiais é raro e apenas eventual. O presente projeto visou desenvolver uma metodologia para obtenção de amostras ambientais na forma de aerossóis em locais onde a ocorrência do fungo já foi evidenciada pelo seu isolamento em tatus Dasypus novemcinctus e avaliar a ocorrência do patógeno nestes materiais por cultura direta e por biologia molecular em reações de PCR com “primers” específicos, já desenvolvidos em nosso laboratório. Para tal, avaliamos o padrão de crescimento do P. brasiliensis em quatro diferentes meios ditos como seletivos. Entre estes meios, encontra-se o Meio Sólido de amônia que, por nunca ter sido testado em P. brasiliensis, necessitava de testes quanto à viabilidade de uso e ajuste de concentração. Depois de testado a funcionalidade dos meios e observado o padrão de crescimento que o fungo exibe nesses diferentes meios, partimos para a tentativa de isolamento ambiental do P. brasiliensis através de amostras de solo em forma de aerossóis com o auxílio deles. Tendo em vista os resultados obtidos, optamos, também, por realizar a coleta de teias de aranhas, devido a grande aderência que exerce sobre aerossóis ambientais. Os isolados de P. brasiliensis cultivados apresentaram desenvolvimento semelhante nos quatro meios utilizados, indicando a possibilidade de uso destes meios seletivos para estudos ambientais. P.brasiliensis não foi isolado nestas amostras ambientais... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

Perfil de pesquisa dos departamentos da Faculdade de Engenharia do Campus de Guaratinguetá

To know the profile of research of each Department of Education is of utmost importance for future actions of improvements. This type of study must be made continuously of form to evaluate Departments´ trends as well as the College´s as a whole, besides stimulating the activities of research and formation of human resources of the Departments. In this work is quantified activity of orientation and research of the Departments of the College of Engineering of Guaratinguetá - UNESP, through national and international publications in periodic, congresses and supervisions of graduation works, masters, doctoral, post doctoral, and scientific initiation, in a period five years (2007 through 2012). For balance of points to the considered issues, a criterion based on the CAPES qualification of periodic has been assumed. On the basis of the results of this work, has been observed enormous differences and particularities between the seven analyzed Departments of Education. In a general way, some Departments presented good performance in the three criteria, whereas others obtained a good performance in only one of them. The Department of Materials and Technology was the only one in which 25% of the professors obtained maximum note for the publication in periodic, while in the Departments of Civil, Electric Engineering and Mechanics 75% of the professors did not reach sufficient punctuation in order to equal a publication in periodic with B2 extract

História de vida e formação: educando o olhar e percebendo pesquisa enquanto experiência

Way in the theme of the story of my life and training and electingchildhood as a guide in the works of Benjamin. Narrating a series of reflections on childhood and experience, taking for reading and interpretation of aphorisms that make up my childhood and training as a fellow researcher, a full text simultaneously, is juxtaposed with other texts and authors, intertwining with Benjamin, memory and history in my narrative, in a singular moment, an event. In this course highlight the place ofexperience and their languages, between the know-how, andknowing how to express thinking about childhood and educationevent in the making, which announces the issue of impoverishment and destitution of the experience of life ineducational practice, indicating the possibility resume thembetween school knowledge and practices through different view of childhood and the event, as a teacher. I will continue outliningmy experience in research groups choosing the language and itsinterfaces specifically with art cinema / pictures in the construction of our subjectivity in postmodernity. The methodology is qualitative, will take place within what we call the ethical self. Transcendence is an act and not a process, and yetas an overshooting of history is always historically situated and,therefore, has a concrete context. Using my own journey as an educator / researcher in my path as an area of passage / travel / experience / track / time in the constitution of my subjectivity in my own life story

Perfil sanitário e pesquisa de Salmonella em frangos e lingüiças pela metodologia tradicional e pela PCR

Novos hábitos alimentares da população e as mudanças nos sistemas de produção e distribuição dos alimentos podem estar fortemente relacionados aos casos de doenças transmitidas pelo consumo de alimentos contaminados por microorganismos. Isso faz com que a preocupação com a qualidade microbiológica dos alimentos aumente mundialmente. Dentre os principais patógenos, destaca-se a Salmonella sp, que pertence à microbiota gatrentestinal de animais silvestres e de animais domésticos criados para o consumo humano (aves, bovinos e suínos). Este fato torna o problema de grande relevância para as autoridades de saúde pública, pois esses microrganismos podem estar associados às infecções ou surtos provocados pela ingestão de alimentos contaminados. Foram coletadas 35 amostras de lingüiças e 25 cortes de frango, nos principais supermercados do município de Botucatu-SP e avaliados quanto à qualidade higiênico-sanitária através da determinação do número mais provável de coliformes termotolerantes (CT), além da presença de Salmonella sp. Os resultados obtidos mostram que 31% das lingüiças e 84% das amostras de frango estavam fora dos padrões higiênico-sanitários estabelecido pela ANVISA (RDC n° 12), que determina uma quantidade máxima de 5x103 CT/g em lingüiça e 104 /g em carne de aves. Em relação à Salmonella sp, estabeleceu-se a ausência dessa bactéria em 25g de lingüiça e não determina nenhum parâmetro para o frango. Entre as 25 amostras de frango analisadas, duas (8%) foram positivas pela metodologia tradicional. Esse... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

Cultivo celular in vitro: importância para a pesquisa biomédica e dimensão da problemática de autenticação de linhagens celulares

Experimental models composed by human and animal cell lines are simplified and informative, allowing them to be widely used for biomedical research. Most laboratories that use in vitro cultivated cells maintain a variation of cell lines stored and cultivated. Therefore, misidentification and cross-contamination events can happen during cell lines handling. This problem can generate a repertoire of dubious results and papers, which may prejudice biomedical research. Recently it was created the International Cell Line Authentication Committee (ICLAC), which aims to spread knowledge about cross-contamination and misidentification of in vitro cell lines. Despite of the efforts spent trying to aware scientific community about the importance of the correct identification of cells, the number of papers based on misidentified cell lines it´s still worrying, compromising the reliability of out coming results and conclusions regarding them. The present study aims to analyze and discuss the main advantages and limitations of eukaryote in vitro cell lines use, characterizing the cell lines authentication problems. Therefore, compilation and critical analyses of literature data was realized, aiming to improve the understanding about this subject. Based on information about 445 cell lines with issues published by ICLAC it´s clear that contamination in human cell lines represented 89,2 % of mentioned problems. HeLa cell line was the responsible for most contamination, especially in 92 normal tissue cell lines, representing 44,6% of the contamination. These results reinforce the importance of periodic maintenance of cell lines cultures by labs and implementation of authentication methods as polymorphic STRs, besides obtaining cell lines from reliable sources and cell banks

Pesquisa e experiência: linhas de fuga e dramaturgia científica

The discussions waged by several authors in the field of philosophy of science about scientificity and scientific work often fall to the shock of Sciences, who had long substantiate their studies from the perspective of Natural Sciences. Fact that the man away from research, transforming it into a simple object of study. Among these questions, it is necessary to think in a very scientificity of the humanities, which considers the various types of knowledge that makes up the formation of the individual. In this way, approaching the experience, treated by Agambem Benjamin Larrosa and the educational research with children presents itself as a chance to rethink the current paradigm of Sciences. This gives rise to the objective of this work reflect, based on a research conducted with children and imagetic production, the idea of 'research and its relation to the concept of experience'. We will take as its starting point the elaborations on this concept as presented by Giorgio Agamben. We are assuming that the images of that research, are configured as research papers or research and, in this sense, the research is defined as a documentary research

Geologia e pesquisa mineral na região oeste do maciço Caritianas, municípios de Alto Paraíso e Itapuã D'Oeste, Rondônia

The granites Rondonianos, located in Rondônia Tin Pronvíncia, the southwestern portion of the Amazonian Craton, have great economic importance due to its large potential metallogenic. These granites stands out Intrusive Suite or Suite Granites Latest Rondônia Rondônia, with approximately 997-998 Ma (Bettencourt et al., 1997, 1999), for their tin mineralization having the largest reserves of this ore from Brazil. These tin mineralization in veins greissen are genetically related to these granites, deposits with different structural styles both within granitic plutons (endogreissen) as the host rocks (exogreissen). The western region of the Massif Caritianas has few published works, and the geology and potential econômicoão that were never fully known, now with the recovery of tin in the world market need new campaigns and prospective discoveries of new deposits
