Os saberes em potencial da atividade policial ostensiva: sistematizando modelos a partir da experiência potiguar

This work of research presents an investigation into the knowledge related to the ostensive policing activities of a group of the Rio Grande do Norte State Military Police Captains. This knowledge, which is decisive and part of Brazilian Military Police Constitutional matters, must be taken into consideration when it comes down to planning and putting into force the services related to ostensive public security. Thus, a historical and social analysis about the formation of the police by starting from foreigner experiences down to Rio Grande do Norte s reality, led by such knowledge, was made. Further, studying Brazilian and local scene, this knowledge was analyzed on the ostensive policing activities as for the principles of the Brazilian National Public Security Plan, Brazilian Classification of Occupations / CBO 2002, the reference documents and studies for police graduation Curricular Basis and Matrix; the Variables of Ostensive Policing, as well as some important competences of police service. Arguing that this knowledge is somehow related to what is presented in this work as Orientation Axis to Military Police Service , research tools such as Critical Case Solution and the answers to the Questionnaire on Fundamental Areas of Military Police Service , having in the end six knowledge models related to ostensive policing activities were used within that group. This knowledge can be classified in three distinct categories of connotations within the military police activity: one with reactive/repressive characteristics being the most predominant; the second as preventive; and another one that revealed that the military police activity is being misused for actions and/or missions outside the scope of action of military police

Avaliação in vitro da atividade antifúngica de extratos de plantas e óleo de eucalipto sobre Trichophyton mentagrophytes

O presente estudo teve como objetivo determinar a ação antifúngica de extratos de plantas medicinais e óleo de eucalipto frente ao dermatófito Trichophyton mentagropytes, visando a utilização da fitoterapia no controle. As plantas utilizadas na obtenção dos extratos foram arruda (Ruta graveolens), citronela (Cymbopogon nardus), cravo de defunto (Tagetes minuta), eucalipto (Eucalyptus spp), graviola (Annona muricata), fruta do conde (Annona spp), manga (Mangifera indica), romã (Punica granatum), flores e folhas de primavera (Bougainvillea spectabilis). Verificou-se que uso de 0,5% óleo de eucalipto no combate ao T. mentagropytes foi eficaz, já os extratos de citronela (4%) eucalipto (5%) e romã (8%) atuaram como fungistáticos e os restantes não devem ser usados contra este dermatófito porque não causaram nenhum efeito.

A história escolar e a teoria da atividade: relações e possibilidades formativas no ensinar e aprender

This study investigates the manner in which the Activity Theory by Alexei Nikolaevich Leontiev contributed to the performance of a teacher who teaches History at the 8th year of elementary school, Escola Estadual Coronel Fernandes, in Luís Gomes - RN city. Her goal is to analyze the contributions of this theory in her teaching practice. It was opted by collaborative approach as formative strategy and was used as procedures for training of knowing the courses of study and thoughtful reflection sessions. It was used as techniques in the development of these cycles, the semistructured interview and the reflection sessions, the autoscopy and observation in real life. Regarding the theoretical foundation, held in these cycles, the teacher demonstrated to have appropriated some contributions from Activity Theory, besides relating them to her practice and understanding her importance to the improvement of teaching and learning of History. Concerning to the reflection sessions, the analysis showed that the participant has used of constructions of this theory and improved their practice, developing lessons of History so as to encourage student participation in oral and promote his integral development. The educational process, carried out on the practice of teacher, has shown an increase in her conscious learning that contributed to the improvement in their professional development. Before these findings, as needs for new thinking, this research recommends, especially the organization of teaching activities, based on this theory, which allows the teacher to improve the teaching and learning process contributing to student's full education

Um estudo sobre a apreciação do raciocínio matemático na formação inicial de professores

The present work focused on developing teaching activities that would provide to the student in initial teacher training, improving the ability of mathematical reasoning and hence a greater appreciation of the concepts related to the golden section, the irrational numbers, and the incommensurability the demonstration from the reduction to the nonsensical. This survey is classified itself as a field one which data collection were inserted within a quantitative and qualitative approach. Acted in this research, two classes in initial teacher training. These were teachers and employees of public schools and local governments, living in the capital, in Natal Metropolitan Region - and within the country. The empirical part of the research took place in Pedagogy and Mathematics courses, IFESP in Natal - RN. The theoretical and methodological way construction aimed to present a teaching situation, based on history, involving mathematics and architecture, derived from a concrete context - Andrea Palladio s Villa Emo. Focused discussions on current studies of Rachel Fletcher stating that the architect used the golden section in this village construction. As a result, it was observed that the proposal to conduct a study on the mathematical reasoning assessment provided, in teaching and activity sequences, several theoretical and practical reflections. These applications, together with four sessions of study in the classroom, turned on to a mathematical thinking organization capable to develop in academic students, the investigative and logical reasoning and mathematical proof. By bringing ancient Greece and Andrea Palladio s aspects of the mathematics, in teaching activities for teachers and future teachers of basic education, it was promoted on them, an improvement in mathematical reasoning ability. Therefore, this work came from concerns as opportunity to the surveyed students, thinking mathematically. In fact, one of the most famous irrational, the golden section, was defined by a certain geometric construction, which is reflected by the Greek phrase (the name "golden section" becomes quite later) used to describe the same: division of a segment - on average and extreme right. Later, the golden section was once considered a standard of beauty in the arts. This is reflected in how to treat the statement questioning by current Palladio s scholars, regarding the use of the golden section in their architectural designs, in our case, in Villa Emo

Associação entre consumo alimentar e atividade física com a síndrome metabólica em mulheres na pós-menopausa

Post-menopause is characterized as the period beginning one year after the permanent cessation of menstrual cycles, which is typically related to medical disorders that, in association with Metabolic Syndrome (MS), represent a set of cardiovascular risk factors. Objective: To assess dietary intake and the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal women, according to the level of physical activity. Methods: The sample consisted of 82 women, evaluated in the Northern Zone of the city of Natal / RN who were participants in the Natal Active Program. People completed a Food Frequency Consumption Questionnaire (FFCQ) and were interviewed about physical activity. Anthropometric measurements and biochemical tests were used to diagnose MS (Metabolic Syndrome). Result: The active women consumed more protective foods (flaxseed, nuts, whole wheat bread, brown rice and olive oil) than inactive women. Risky foods (sugar, crackers, white bread, white rice, margarine and beef) were consumed more by the group of inactive women. The prevalence of MS was higher in inactive women (53.30%) than in physically active women (46.70%). Conclusion: Active post-menopausal women had a higher daily intake of protective foods in relation to cardiovascular disease, while the inactive post-menopausal women had higher intake of risky foods for such diseases

Enxofre disponível para a soja e atividade de arilsulfatase em solo tratado com gesso agrícola

O constante uso de fertilizantes que não contêm S, aliado ao baixo teor de matéria orgânica de alguns solos, pode resultar em limitação desse nutriente para as culturas. Graças à alta mobilidade do íon sulfato no perfil da maioria dos solos, é importante conhecer o efeito residual da aplicação do gesso agrícola feita com a finalidade de fornecimento de S, visando estimar sua freqüência de realização. em dois anos agrícolas, foram efetuados experimentos em campo para avaliar o efeito da aplicação de gesso agrícola nos teores de S-sulfato, S-reserva e atividade da arilsulfatase de um Latossolo Vermelho distrófico cultivado com soja, bem como nos teores de macronutrientes nas folhas e na produtividade de grãos da cultura. Os tratamentos consistiram na aplicação de: 0, 67, 133, 267, 533 e 1.067 kg ha-1 de gesso agrícola, em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com quatro repetições. Realizaram-se amostragens de solo nas profundidades de 0-20 e 20-40 cm a cada 21 dias durante o ciclo da cultura, totalizando seis por ano. A primeira amostragem de cada ano foi feita antes da aplicação do gesso. No segundo ano, a distribuição dos tratamentos foi feita sobre as mesmas parcelas do ano anterior. O gesso agrícola aumentou os teores de S-sulfato no solo nas épocas próximas à aplicação, os quais diminuíram com o tempo, em decorrência da precipitação pluvial. No primeiro ano, o S-sulfato foi lixiviado para além da profundidade de 20-40 cm, sem efeito residual de um ano para o outro. A atividade da arilsulfatase foi maior a 0-20 cm, de forma semelhante ao observado para o S-reserva, havendo correlação positiva entre essas variáveis. A aplicação de gesso agrícola não influenciou a produção de grãos e, à exceção do teor de S no segundo ano, não alterou os teores de macronutrientes nas folhas de soja.

Atividade de proteases e disponibilidade de nitrogênio para laranjeira cultivada em Latossolo Vermelho distrófico

O conhecimento do potencial da mineralização dos compostos orgânicos nitrogenados do solo é fundamental para o uso eficiente do N em sistemas de produção agrícola. Com o objetivo de avaliar a atividade de proteases e suas relações com os teores de diferentes formas de N em Latossolo Vermelho distrófico cultivado com laranjeira, foram coletadas amostras de solo em duas profundidades (0-10 e 10-20 cm), na linha de projeção da copa e nas entrelinhas, nos meses de novembro e dezembro/98, fevereiro e março/99. em março/99, época recomendada para a diagnose foliar, também foram coletadas amostras de folhas. As amostras de solo foram avaliadas com relação à atividade de proteases e aos teores de N-amoniacal, N-nitrato, N-total, N-amoniacal obtido após incubação anaeróbia (N-pot) e N-amoniacal extraído por solução de CaCl2 sob autoclavagem (N-autoclave). Nas amostras de folha, determinou-se o teor de N-total. A atividade de proteases foi influenciada pelo local e pela profundidade de amostragem, tendo sido mais elevada na linha de projeção da copa e profundidade de 0-10 cm. A aplicação de fertilizante orgânico causou aumento na atividade de proteases, principalmente na camada de 0-10 cm. O coeficiente de correlação entre atividade de proteases e outros métodos para avaliação da disponibilidade de N dependeu da época, do local e da profundidade de amostragem. A correlação entre o N-foliar, obtido na época indicada para diagnose foliar, a atividade de proteases e as demais formas para avaliar disponibilidade de N (N-amoniacal, N-nitrato, N-autoclave e N-pot) variou com a época de amostragem. A atividade de proteases foi positiva e altamente correlacionada com o N-foliar, obtido na época indicada para fins de diagnose foliar, para amostras de terra retiradas nas entrelinhas (0-10 cm), no mês de dezembro/1998.

Avaliação da atividade dos inibidores de tripsina após digestão enzimática em grãos de soja tratados termicamente

Este trabalho avalia a reativação dos inibidores de tripsina, após proteólise in vitro, de grãos de soja tratados termicamente. Para a inativação térmica dos inibidores, os grãos foram embebidos em água destilada (1:5 p/v) durante 12 horas e aquecidos em placas sob refluxo por 30 minutos. A reativação dos inibidores foi avaliada em comparação com a atividade das amostras cruas e aquecidas. A digestibilidade in vitro das proteínas variou de 47% ('OC-13') a 59% (Paraná), apresentando uma melhora, em média, de 32,6% com o aquecimento. A atividade dos inibidores de tripsina para os grãos crus variou de 122 a 206 UTI/mg de amostra, e os valores correlacionaram-se negativamente com a porcentagem de digestibilidade (r = -0,9177). Os inibidores tiveram suas atividades totalmente inativadas com o aquecimento dos grãos, os quais apresentaram porcentagem de recuperação, em média, de 40%. Com o aquecimento, a inativação dos inibidores provavelmente ocorre por complexação com os componentes do grão, o que leva à recuperação da atividade com o processo de digestão enzimática.

Atividade enzimática pancreática de frangos de corte alimentados com dietas contendo enzima ou probiótico

Este trabalho foi realizado para avaliar o efeito da adição de enzima e/ou probiótico, bem como do estresse calórico sobre a atividade de enzimas digestivas de frangos de corte aos 7, 14, 28 e 42 dias de idade. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi o inteiramente casualizado em parcelas subdivididas com 6 tratamentos primários, constituindo um esquema fatorial 6x2 (rações x temperatura) e 4 tratamentos secundários (idades de amostragem), com 2 repetições. Não foi verificado efeito significativo dos tratamentos sobre a atividade específica das enzimas, exceto para as atividades de amilase aos 14 dias e tripsina aos 28 dias de idade, nas quais a adição de enzima proporcionou maiores atividades. Já a idade de criação afetou significativamente todas as enzimas quantificadas, sendo que a atividade específica de lipase diminuiu e as atividades específicas de amilase, tripsina e quimotripsina aumentaram com a idade das aves. A temperatura ambiente (calor) também afetou a produção enzimática de acordo com a idade dos frangos de corte, com um aumento na atividade de lipase e redução na tripsina e amilase.

Efeito dos taninos condensados de forrageiras nativas do semi-árido nordestino sobre o crescimento e atividade celulolítica de Ruminococcus flavefaciens FD1

Avaliaram-se o crescimento da população, a atividade in vitro da enzima 1,4-b-endoglucanase e a taxa de digestão de celulose em culturas de Ruminococcus flavefaciens FD1 na presença de 50, 100, 200 e 400µg/ml de taninos purificado das leguminosas Mimosa hostilis (Jurema Preta), Mimosa caesalpinifolia (Sabiá) e Bauhinia cheilantha (Mororó). O crescimento bacteriano, a atividade da endoglucanase e a digestão de celulose foram fortemente inibidos pela presença dos taninos condensados purificados das três espécies, entretanto, a intensidade da inibição foi variável em função da espécie da leguminosa e da concentração de tanino.

Ergonomia, sustentabilidade sócio-ambiental e atividade de pesca artesanal com jangadas: estudo de caso na Praia de Ponta Negra, Natal-RN

The fishing is made possible by the handiwork of a fisherman, not using appliances that achieve the same levels of industrial fishing productivity and not causing environmental impacts on fish stocks with the same intensity. The adoption of sustainability practices in this type of fishing has been requested for the achievement of environmental and socioeconomic improvements, since its production has been decreasing over the years and overfishing has led to reduced stocks also stand out environmental aggressions such as pollution. Thus, this research aims to analyze the interference of environmental aspects/impacts that permeate the activity performed by fisherman on the beach of Ponta Negra, Natal-RN, in order to propose recommendations for environmental sustainability. We used a methodology based on the ergonomic work analysis (WISNER, 1987; GUERIN, 2001; VIDAL, 2008) using techniques such as observational and interactional observation protocols, photographs, videos, conversational action, and listening to verbalizations. To understand the vulnerability of the environment in which the activity is carried fisherman and the interferences that it suffers, we used the study of environmental aspects/impacts (SÁNCHEZ 2008). As a result, it appears that from the observations located and reports raftsmen, changes in the sea, the search for new fishing grounds farther from the coast, reducing fishery production, waste generation and pollution of the workplace, and the difficulty in docking rafts, factors arising from the pressures both for society as Seen by fisherman, denoting the necessity of drawing up recommendations and actions proposed by management activity by promoting discussion among raftsmen and accountable institutions, and training through workshops on environmental education, aiming to positive changes in the activity fisherman from Ponta Negra and the environment in which raftsmen are inserted in order to seek a sustainable activity, preserving its characteristics

A oficina como método de desenvolvimento de projeto do produto aplicado à atividade jangadeira de Ponta Negra Natal-RN

The jangadas (brazilian fishing rafts) are rudimentary artisanal vessels intrinsic to the Northeast of Brazil. The fishery with jangadas is highly representative in the State of Rio Grande do Norte, and source of income for many families in addition to being a strong cultural icon. Is still alive despite the difficulties, bringing the history and customs of the fishermen and their people. However, is in process of extinction due to factors such as the low profitability of the activity, tourism and urbanization. From the understanding of activity involving their context and circumstances, based on identified problems regarding the conditions of use of jangadas as the unpredictability, the risk of accidents, poor working conditions, hygiene and housing, this dissertation aims to: analyzing the design of the jangada on the beach of Ponta Negra and its relationship with the activity in relation to health, safety, productivity and environment, and from such assessments, together with the results achieved during the workshops of the project, proposing a cart to move the raft, adapted to the local fisherman activity studied. To perform analysis of jangadeira activity, we used a methodology based on ergonomic work analysis - AET (WISNER, 1987; GUÈRIN, 2001; VIDAL, 2008, SALDANHA, 2004 and Carvalho, 2005). For data collection were used observational and interaction methods as a conversational action, verbalizations, photographs and video. It is emphasized that the search for solutions appropriate to the jangadeira activity was possible through the collaboration of several people, not just an informational level and understanding during the work activity, but effectively contributing to the making decisions
