In order to understand what is the situation of entities that serve children and adolescents today, as well as the institutional plot that comprises these institutions, we aimed to formulate a set of paradigmatic possibilities that would allow us to understand the configuration of the dialectical field of various pulses, in which these entities are located. We detected the subjects we associate with counterparts paradigms of Charity, of Human Promotion, of Philanthropy, of assistentialist government patronage, of Social Work as a State Policy, and finally, another set of events that we propose to designate as the paradigm of Citizen Subjects we associate with the ethical perspective of People Education. These paradigmatic possibilities range from the simply various and contrasting ones, including the similar and competing ones, to the dialectically contradictory ones. Its spectrum oscillates between tutelage and citizenship. The characterization of these didactic paradigms can provide us a compass that is required in a highly complex social field, allowing us to understand the variety of ethical effects promoted by these paradigms in the social field.

Os vírus entéricos são importantes agentes de doenças de veiculação hídrica. Entre esses, os adenovirus humanos (HAdV) assumiram importância por serem um dos principais causadores de gastrenterite em crianças menores de cinco anos e pela sua maior resistência a fatores físicos e químicos em detrimento a outros vírus no ambiente. Várias pesquisas têm demonstrado ausência de relação entre a presença de bactérias indicadoras e vírus. Diante disso, diversos autores têm sugerido a inclusão desses agentes como potenciais indicadores de contaminação viral e fecal da água. O objetivo desse trabalho foi detectar a presença de HAdV em amostras de água e esgoto não tratado oriundas de diversos ecossistemas aquáticos da cidade de Belém-PA. Foram selecionados seis pontos de amostragem, dentre eles um esgoto não tratado: Esgoto do UNA e cinco coleções hídricas: Porto do Açaí, Ver-o-Peso, Igarapé Tucunduba, Lago Bolonha e Lago Água Preta. Foi feita uma coleta mensal de dois litros de água em cada ponto durante 24 meses consecutivos, de nov/2008 a out/2010, totalizando 144 amostras. Foi utilizada água destilada autoclavada para controle negativo de cada ponto em todos os testes utilizados. As amostras foram concentradas pelo método de adsorção-eluição e posteriormente centrifugadas para a obtenção de dois mL. O DNA foi extraído pelo kit comercial Qiagen. Para a detecção molecular foram empregadas a Reação em Cadeia Mediada pela Polimerase (PCR convencional) e a PCR em tempo real, sendo utilizados iniciadores e sondas específicos que amplificam um gene do hexon de 301 e 96 pb, respectivamente. Visando-se melhorar o produto amplificado para sequenciamento genômico, algumas amostras positivas pela PCR convencional foram submetidas à Nested-PCR com a utilização de mais um par de iniciadores que amplificam uma região interna de 171 pb. Amostras de água e esgoto foram sequenciadas, analisadas e comparadas a outras obtidas no GeneBank. Os HAdV foram detectados em 59% (85/144) das amostras de água superficial e esgoto não tratado, sendo que a positividade obtida pela PCR convencional foi de 22,9% (33/144) e pela PCR em tempo real de 58,7% (84/143). A primeira detectou o agente apenas nas amostras do igarapé Tucunduba (62,5%) e do esgoto do UNA (75%) e a segunda em amostras provenientes dos seis pontos de coleta (com uma variação de 25 a 100%). O agente foi detectado em todos os 24 meses do estudo, estando presentes em pelo menos dois pontos, mensalmente. A PCR em tempo real se mostrou mais sensível nesse estudo, tendo encontrado o agente em 36,4% (52/143) das amostras não detectadas pela PCR convencional. Das oito amostras genotipadas todas pertencem à espécie F, sendo quatro referentes ao sorotipo 40 e quatro ao 41. Nossos resultados confirmam a alta circulação desse patógeno nas águas superficiais e esgoto da cidade, sugerindo a inclusão dos HAdV como bons indicadores de contaminação viral e fecal da água. A pesquisa desses vírus em ambientes aquáticos é pioneira em Belém e tais resultados são de relevante importância para as políticas de saúde pública e ambiental, servindo como base para estudos complementares nessa área.

No presente trabalho foram analisadas as distribuições de probabilidade teórica Normal, Log-Normal, Exponencial, Gama e Weibull, para estimar as vazões máximas e mínimas anuais para o rio Paraguai, utilizando dados de uma estação fluviométrica localizado na cidade de Cáceres-MT. Os testes de Kolmogorov-Smirnov e Qui-Quadrado foram utilizados para verificar a aderência das probabilidades estimadas às freqüências observadas. A série utilizada compreende vazões máximas e mínimas anuais dos anos de 1966 a 2003, excluindo- se dados com falhas. Verificou-se que o melhor ajuste dos valores anuais de vazão máximas e mínimas são referentes a distribuição Gama e Weibull, respectivamente, conforme demonstrado pelo teste de Kolmogorov-Smirnov. Palavras-chave: Previsão de Vazão, teste de aderência.

The canine Transmissible Venereal Tumor (TVT) is a neoplasm of round cells that primarily affects the external genitalia of both male and female dogs with high casuistry. Its transmission occurs by the tumor cells’ implementation in the mucous membranes during the coitus or in other body parts through licking, scratching or direct contact with the tumor. The clinical manifestations vary according to the location. Despite being a malignant neoplasm, TVT’s metastatic potential is low. The diagnosis is based on macroscopic characteristics, clinical signs, cytology and/or histopathology exam, among which cytology is considered the best method. There are several treatment protocols for the TVT, among which, surgical excision, radiotherapy, immunotherapy and chemotherapy. Chemotherapy with vincristine sulfate is the elected treatment. However, more and more new alternatives have been developed, as the usage of natural products, homeopathy and ivermectina. They can be used as a unique treatment to neoplasm or combined to the chemotherapy in order to decrease the dose and the application number of the chemotherapic and its side effects

Accidents involving insects of the Hymenoptera order occur very often with both human beings and domestic pets and, in Brazil, they include aggravated cases with Africanized bees (Apis mellifera). The aggravation of deforestation and the lack of awareness regarding the subject are factors that contribute to the rise of the number of bees in the urban environment. This fact has been causing several derangements among the population because, once these insects are bothered, they become very aggressive. Considering the risks to population and the great amount of accidents that could be avoided, the development of researches with the goal of determining repelling substances is rather important. Therefore, this research evaluated the repelling action of essential natural oils obtained from rosemary (Rosmarinus oficinalis), lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus), thyme (Thymus vulgaris), cedar (Juniperus virginiana), clove (Syzygium aromaticum) and mint (Mentha piperita) on A. mellifera Africanized worker bees in both semi-field and aggressiveness tests. Among the evaluated composites, the lemongrass, mint and clove essential natural oils presented a grater repelling effect, inhibiting the bees’ visitation to the managed feeders almost completely. The cedar essential natural oil was the least effective composite, and the rest of the tested oils presented satisfactory repellency, which became less effective over time, according to non-parametric Mann-Whitney test. However, further tests showed that only the lemongrass essential natural oil caused a less aggressive response from the bees, which can confirm the repelling power of this composite. This way, according to the results obtained through this research, lemongrass presents a greater potential to the development of effective repelling formulas against Africanized bees (Apis mellifera)

This study aimed to develop, implement and evaluate the performance of a new type of bioreactor for anaerobic treatment of wastewater using different filling materials like trickling filters post-reactor. This bioreactor has mixed characteristics of the UASB reactors and horizontal flow from the point of view of removal of BOD (Biochemical Oxygen Demand) ssed (settled solids), TS (Total Solids), SS (Suspended Solid), SD (Dissolved Solids) and turbidity. The experimental model consists of a bioreactor with a volume of 12 m³, 2/3 filled by fluidized bed and 1/3 for fixed. The fluidized bed is made of polystyrene plates used as a system percolation and compartmentalized trickling filters, where each compartment was filled with a support medium with different characteristics (gravel number 4, plastic rings of polystyrene, PET and HDPE) . In addition, the output of a filter system was installed three entries filled with activated carbon. The bioreactor was installed in private residence in the city of Igarapava-SP (20° 02'40.18"S and 47° 45'01.36" W). The system was highly efficient as the removal of organic contaminant load 92% on average reducing the BOD, a significant result when compared to other anaerobic systems. For the other parameters, the mean reduction was 96% for turbidity, 99% ssed, 67.5% ST, 57% SD and 88% of SS. As for its operation the system was capable of operating in continuous flow without the need for maintenance during the entire period of evaluation and without energy, as it operates taking advantage of the natural slope of the terrain where it is installed. The environmental impacts were minimized due to the preservation of local vegetation allowing the ecosystem to remain unchanged beyond the prototype was completely sealed preventing exhalation of odors and therefore not causing inconvenience to neighboring populations. Given these facts it was concluded that the prototype is shown to be highly feasible deployed as a new alternative for treatment of sewage in rural and urban settings (individual homes, condos, farms, ranches, etc.) Due to ease of design and operability, and sustainability at all stages of execution.
