O uso corporativo do território brasileiro no período técnico-científico-informacional: o circuito espacial produtivo e círculos de cooperação da empresa Natura

In the current historical period marked by globalization and neoliberal policies have seen the pursuit of expanded reproduction of capital by corporations, which make from the deepening territorial division of labor, ie, the increasing presence of its circuit productive space within steps towards the relations between capital and labor. This capital increase is made possible mainly by exploiting precarious forms of labor. In Brazil today, much of the population enjoys the possibilities of consumption, due mainly to the policy measures implemented in the last decade, this situation favors further expansion of large companies in our territory, thus the circuit analysis of spatial production of cosmetics contributes to a political debate about the uses of the national territory. Given that companies are organizations whose actions occur inseparably technical systems that make up the territory, this course conclusion work seeks to understand the circuit of production space and cooperation circles cosmetics company Natura Cosmetics S/A

Reciclagem de poliestireno expandido: compósito com fibras de algodão para a confecção de placas de circuito impresso

In this work polymeric composites reinforced with cotton fibers, from the textile industry, were developed in order to manufacture printed circuit boards. It was used expanded polystyrene (EPS) as a thermoplastic matrix by melting it. For the obtention of 10% and 15% of fiber volume fraction in cotton fibers composites, it was used wasted cotton fibers as an incentive of recycling and reusing of the domestic and industrial wastes as well as for Expanded Polystyrene(EPS). The mechanical properties of the composites were evaluated by tensile and flexural strength from standardized test methods. Composites were characterized by a Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Thermogravimetry (TG/DTG), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and dielectric analysis. The analysis of the results showed that fiber in the composite directly influenced in the thermal and mechanical properties

Reciclagem de poliestireno expandido: compósito com fibras de sisal para confecção de placas de circuito impresso

In this work polystyrene composites reinforced with recycled sisal fibers were processed, in order to apply in the manufacture of printed circuit boards. A thermoplastic matrix of recycled polystyrene was used, this material came from waste expanded polystyrene (EPS) used in appliance's packages. Composites were prepared with 15% and 25% of sisal fibers. To obtain the composites, wasted EPS and natural sisal fibers were chosen, to encourage recycling and reuse of household waste and also the use of renewable resources. The composites were analyzed by standard tensile and flexural test, in order to verify the mechanical properties of the material. The characterization of the composite was done by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) , thermogravimetry (TGA / DTG) , differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dielectric analysis . The analysis of the results showed that the percentage of fibers in the composite influences directly the thermal and mechanical properties. Plates with a lower percentage of fibers showed superior properties at a higher percentage. The composite material obtained is easy to process and it's use is feasible for the confection of printed circuit boards, considering it's mechanical, thermal and insulative properties

O circuito espacial produtivo dos fertilizantes no território brasileiro

This paper has two main objective the study of the productive space circuit of fertilizers in Brazil. For this, we study the company's operations Vale Fertilizers SA More specifically, the production and consumption of fertilizers in Brazil. In the current globalization the Brazilian countryside know new ways of doing (SANTOS, 1994). This, with less roughness, adopts the Green Revolution package, and introduces inputs to the soil, such as seeders, combines, tractors, herbicides, fungicides and fertilizers (Santos & Silveira, 2001). The examination of the Brazilian case as the agricultural modernization reveals the great vulnerability of modern agricultural regions in the face of globalizing modernization (Santos, 2000: 92). The places that receive capital reproduction of imperatives gain a new medium, is the formation of informational scientific technical means, are the bright spots corresponding to other places (Santos, 1994). Thus, the productive circuits are no longer confined to the environment, but establish connections with distant places (Santos, 1986; Frederick & CASTILLO, 2004). What's more, the policy is now made in the market (Santos, 2000, p.67) and the adoption by the Brazilian government's neoliberal policies, the Brazilian state-owned companies related to fertilizer production circuit are privatized, thereby Brazil makes It is further more dependent on inputs used in the field, including fertilizers

Analisi del circuito di regolazione responsabile del controllo trascrizionale dei geni Heat-Shock in Helicobacter pylori

Helicobacter pylori, un patogeno umano in grado di colonizzare la nicchia gastrica, è associato a patologie del tratto gastrointestinale di varia gravità. Per sopravvivere nell’ambiente ostile dello stomaco dell’ospite, e mettere in atto un’infezione persistente, il batterio si serve di una serie di fattori di virulenza che includono anche le proteine Heat Shock (chaperone). I principali geni codificanti le proteine chaperone in H. pylori sono organizzati in tre operoni trascritti dall’RNA polimerasi contenente il fattore sigma vegetativo σ80. La trascrizione di due dei tre operoni è regolata negativamente da due regolatori trascrizionali, HspR e HrcA, mentre il terzo operone è represso solo da HspR. Fino ad ora, studi molecolari per la comprensione del ruolo di ciascuna proteina nel controllo trascrizionale dei geni heat shock sono stati ostacolati dalla citotossicità ed insolubilità di HrcA quando espressa in sistemi eterologhi. In questo lavoro, è stata analizzata la sequenza amminoacidica di HrcA ed è stata confermata sperimentalmente la predizione bioinformatica della sua associazione con la membrana interna. La citotossicità e l’insolubilità di HrcA in E. coli sono state alleviate inducendone l’espressione a 42°C. Saggi in vitro con le proteine ricombinanti purificate, HspR e HrcA, hanno consentito di definire i siti di legame dei due repressori sui promotori degli operoni heat shock. Ulteriori saggi in vitro hanno suggerito che l’affinità di HrcA per gli operatori è aumentata dalla chaperonina GroESL. Questi dati contribuiscono parzialmente alla comprensione del meccanismo di repressione della trascrizione espletato da HrcA e HspR e permettono di ipotizzare il coinvolgimento di altri regolatori trascrizionali. L’analisi di RNA estratti dal ceppo selvatico e dai mutanti hrcA, hspR e hrcA/hspR di H.pylori su DNAmacroarrays non ha evidenziato il coinvolgimento di altri regolatori trascrizionali, ma ha permesso l’identificazione di un gruppo di geni indotti da HrcA e/ HspR. Questi geni sono coinvolti nella biosintesi e regolazione dell’apparato flagellare, suggerendo un’interconnessione tra la risposta heat shock e la motilità e chemiotassi del batterio.
