«Soy vampiro, pero también una chica»: vampiros regenerados en True Blood

En la literatura y el cine góticos clásicos, el vampiro se concebía como un monstruo al que cabía eliminar. Sin embargo, en los últimos cuarenta años, novelas, películas y series revelan una voluntad de asimilarlo a la sociedad humana, un proceso conocido como domesticación o regeneración. Como metáfora de la diferencia sexual, racial, de género o de clase, tal asimilación representa, de acuerdo con los postulados de Foucault, una operación que lleva a cabo el poder para someterlas, integrándolas en el orden social y cultural establecido. La serie estadounidense True Blood (2008-2014) refleja a la perfección este proceso dual de regeneración que implica, a su vez, sometimiento. Relacionado con los supuestos de la corrección política, el nuevo monstruo ya no simboliza al «perverso» sino al «diferente» que se debe proteger y aceptar en el seno de la sociedad, pese al riesgo de cohesión social y amenaza para la familia que comporta.

Effect of soy on faecal dry matter content and excretion of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae in pigs.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a soy diet on the excretion of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae in five farms with subclinically infected pigs. The effects on general health, faecal consistency and dry matter were analysed. In total, 200 pigs of different ages (group 1 <100 days of age (n=120) and group 2 ≥100 days (n=80)) were randomly assigned to the control (C) and the treatment (T) groups. Group C received the farm's standard diet. In group T half of the daily feed ration was replaced by pure soy on two consecutive days. Faecal scores were used to determine faecal consistency and a microwave method to assess faecal dry matter content (FDMC). In age group 1, soy feeding resulted in a statistically significant decrease of the FDMC of 2.5 per cent compared with group C and in age group 2 in a significant increase of 2.2 per cent compared with group C at day 2. Overall seven (T: 5, C: 2) out of 597 faecal samples tested positive for B hyodysenteriae by PCR. In conclusion, a high soy diet applied over two days influenced the faecal consistency and the FDMC in growers, finishers and sows under field conditions. Further investigations with more sensitive diagnostic methods are needed to prove a potential influence of a high soy diet on the detection rate of B hyodysenteriae in subclinically infected herds.

Particle formation during soy protein precipitation

The current success of soy foods is driving soy ingredient manufacturers to develop innovative products for food manufacturers. One such innovation is separating the soy proteins glycinin and beta-conglycinin to take advantage of their individual functional and nutritional properties. Precipitation by acidification is a low-cost method for separating these two proteins. Separation is achieved by preferentially precipitating glycinin at pH ~ 6 while beta-conglycinin remains in solution. Understanding the particle formation during protein precipitation is important as it can influence the efficiency of the precipitation process as well as subsequent downstream processes such as the particle-liquid separation step, usually achieved by centrifugation. Most of the previous soy protein precipitation studies are limited to precipitation at pH 4 as this is the pH range most commonly used in the commercial manufacturing of soy protein isolates. To date, there have been no studies on the particle formation during precipitation at pH > 5.Precipitation of soy protein is generally thought to occur by the rapid formation of primary particles in the size range of 0.1 - 0.3 microns followed by aggregation of these particles via collision to aggregates of size about 1 - 50 microns. The formation of the primary particles occurs on a time scale much shorter than that of the overall precipitation process (Nelson and Glatz, 1985). This study shows that precipitation of soy protein is indeed rapid. At high pH levels, binary liquid-liquid separation occurs forming a protein-rich heavy phase. The protein-rich phase appears as droplets which can be coalesced to form a uniform bulk layer under centrifugation forces. Upon lowering the pH level by the addition of acid, further protein is precipitated as amorphous material which binds the droplets together to form aggregates of amorphous precipitates. Liquid-liquid separation has been observed in many protein solutions but this phenomenon has only scarcely been reported in the literature for soy proteins. It presents an exciting opportunity for an innovative product. Features of the liquid-phase protein such as protein yield and purity will be characterized.
