Cru ; suivi de Cruauté nécessaire : le devoir d'une vérité autobiographique chez Guibert, Dustan et Rémès

Situé entre entre le roman et le récit personnel, Cru. prend la forme d'un aller-retour entre fiction et autobiographie. Le texte, construit à l'aide d'une écriture syncopée et brute, présente deux personnages homosexuels à l'ère « post-sida », alors que ceux-ci tentent de comprendre ce que veut dire « être un homme » dans un contexte social où le mépris (envers les autres et soi-même) est encore présent, mais peut-être encore plus pernicieux qu'auparavant, parce que camouflé sous l'idée d'une acceptation globale. Au final, Cru. soulève la délicate question du droit à la vérité dans une démarche autobiographique et celle de l'implication de la cruauté dans un récit qui ne concerne pas que l'auteur, mais son entourage aussi. Cruauté nécessaire : le devoir d'une vérité autobiographique chez Guibert, Dustan et Rémès est un essai qui vise l'analyse de différents procédés se rattachant à l'écriture autobiographique homosexuelle des années 1990, particulièrement aux textes appartenant à la littérature du sida. Si l'autobiographie vise, dans une certaine mesure, le dévoilement de la vérité, comment ne pas parler de cruauté alors que les auteurs qui la pratiquent y vont de révélations qui ne concernent pas qu'eux? Si le processus d'écriture autobiographique se veut bénéfique, le résultat est-il purement diabolique? Il faudra d'abord, évidemment, définir ce que l'on entend par « vérité » et « cruauté » (lire « bénéfique » et « maléfique »). En ce qui concerne le Bien et le Mal, les textes de Bataille et Nietzsche contribueront à définir deux concepts qui peuvent, souvent, être relatifs. En confrontant les textes des trois auteurs français – tous séropositifs au moment de l'écriture – à différentes théories autobiographiques (Doubrovsky, Lejeune, Miraux) et identitaires (Foucault, Schecter, Butler), et à certains écrits sur le devoir et la responsabilité (Donner, Brooks), l'on tentera de démontrer que la cruauté dont Guibert, Dustan et Rémès font preuve est essentielle à l'écriture autobiographique.

Revista semanario El presunto.

Proyecto de elaboración de una revista semanal en la que participan todos los alumnos del centro. Los objetivos generales son: mejorar la expresión escrita de los alumnos; incentivar la lectura y la utilización de medios de comunicación; formar su espíritu crítico; potenciar el trabajo en equipo; desarrollar su creatividad y activar la observación del entorno. Los encargados del montaje, redacción y correción de las distintas secciones de las revistas son los dos grupos de octavo en semanas alternas. Ellos seleccionan los trabajos presentados por los alumnos de todos los niveles, padres y profesores (dibujos, poesías, cuentos, juegos, artículos de opinión, etc.), y los corrigen. Posteriormente realizan una primera prueba de la revista y, una vez aprobada por todos los miembros, se mecanografía. La revista se distribuye a un precio simbólico que sirve para sostener los gastos de la tirada. La valoración del proyecto es positiva aunque se destaca la escasa colaboración por parte de algunos profesores y la falta de medios técnicos.

Risco à saúde representado pelo consumo de leite cru comercializado clandestinamente

Foram submetidas às contagens de microrganismos mesófilos, Staphylococccus coagulase positiva, e às determinações do número mais provável (NMP) de coliformes totais e de coliformes fecais, 60 amostras de leite cru comercializado clandestinamente nos Municípios de Botucatu e de São Manuel, Estado de São Paulo, Brasil. Os resultados obtidos evidenciaram a ocorrência de 41 (68,3%) e 50 (83,3%) amostras com contagens de microrganismos mesófilos e de coliformes totais, respectivamente, acima dos limites máximos estabelecidos pelo Ministério da Saúde para o leite pasteurizado tipo C. Evidenciaram, ainda, a presença de 30 (50,0%) e 11 (18,3%) amostras contaminadas por cepas de Staphylococcus coagulase positiva e por coliformes fecais, respectivamente. Apenas 5 (8,3%) amostras mostraram-se dentro dos referidos padrões legais.

Avaliação, identificação e atividade enzimática de bactérias psicotróficas presentes no leite cru refrigerado

Extended storage of refrigerated milk can lead to reduced quality of raw and processed milk, which is a consequence of the growth and metabolic activities of psychrotrophic bacteria, able to grow under 7oC or lower temperatures. Although most of these microorganisms are destroyed by heat treatment, some have the potential to produce termoresistant proteolytic and lipolytic enzymes that can survive even UHT processing and reduce the processed products quality. Recently, the IN 51 determineds that milk should be refrigerated and stored at the farm what increased the importance of this group of microorganisms. In this work, psychrotrophic bacteria were isolated from 20 communitarian bulk tanks and 23 individual bulk tanks from dairy farms located at Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais State and from southeastern Rio de Janeiro. Selected milk dilutions were plated on standard agar and after incubation for 10 days at 7oC, five colonies were isolated, firstly using nutrient agar and after using McConkey agar for 24 hours at 21oC. The isolates were identified by morphology, Gram stain method, catalase production, fermentative/oxidative metabolism and by API 20E, API 20NE, API Staph, API Coryne or API 50 CH (BioMerieux). In order to ensure reproductibility, API was repeated for 50% of the isolates. Species identification was considered when APILAB indexes reached 75% or higher. 309 strains were isolated, 250 Gram negative and 59 Gram positive. 250 Gram negative isolates were identified as: Acinetobacter spp. (39), Aeromonas spp. (07), A. Hydrophila (16), A. sobria (1), A. caviae (1), Alcaligenes feacalis (1), Burkholderia cepacia (12), Chryseomonas luteola (3), Enterobacter sp. (1), Ewingella americana(6), Hafnia alvei (7), Klebsiella sp. (1), Klebsiella oxytoca (10), Yersinia spp. (2), Methylobacterium mesophilicum (1), Moraxella spp. (4), Pantoea spp. (16), Pasteurella sp. (1), Pseudomonas spp. (10), P. fluorescens (94), P. putida (3), Serratia spp. (3), Sphigomonas paucomobilis (1). Five isolates kept unidentified. Pseudomonas was the predominant bacteria found (43%) and P. fluorescens the predominant species (37.6%), in accordance with previous reports. Qualitative analysis of proteolytic and lipolytic activity was based on halo formation using caseinate agar and tributirina agar during 72 hours at 21oC and during 10 days at 4°C, 10oC and 7°C. Among 250 Gram negative bacteria found, 104 were identified as Pseudomonas spp. and 60,57% of this group showed proteolytic and lipolytic acitivities over all four studied temperatures. 20% of Acinetobacter, Aeromonas, Alcaligenes, Burkholderia, Chryseomonas, Methylobacterium, Moraxella presented only lipolytic activity. Some isolates presented enzymatic activity in one or more studied temperatures. Among Gram positive bacteria, 30.51% were proteolytic and lipolytic at 10oC, 8.47% were proteolytic at 7oC, 10oC, and 21oC, 8.47% were proteolytic at all studied temperatures (4oC, 7oC, 10oC and 21oC) and 3.38% were proteolytic only at 21oC. At 4oC, only one isolate showed proteolytic activity and six isolates were lipolytic. In relation to Gram negative microorganisms, 4% were proteolytic and lipolytic at 7oC, 10oC and 21oC, 10% were proteolytic at 10oC and 4.4% were lipolytic at 4oC, 7oC, 10oC and 21oC, while 6.4% of all isolates were proteolytic and lipolytic at 10oC and 21oC as well as lipolytic at 4oC and 7oC. These findings are in accordance with previous researches that pointed out Pseudomonas as the predominant psycrotrophic flora in stored refrigerated raw milk

Avaliação de métodos de análises para determinação da contagem de células somáticas no leite cru, mantido em tanque de resfriamento

We analyzed the quality of raw milk from eight dairy farms in Rio Grande do Norte stored in a cooling tank , in order to evaluate methods for determining somatic cell counts (SCC). The Somaticell® kit and a portable Direct Cell Counter (DCC) were compared with each other and with the MilkoScanTM FT+ (FOSS Denmark), which uses Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy). Direct cell counter data were processed for somatic cell scores (log-transformed somatic cell count) and analyzed with the SAS®, statistical package , Statistical Analysis System, (SAS, INSTITUTE, 1998). Comparison of means and correlation of somatic cell scores were conducted using Pearson s correlation coefficient and the Tukey Test at 1 %. No significant difference was observed for comparison of means. The correlation between somatic cell scores was significant, that is, 0.907 and 0.876 between the MilkoScanTM FT+ and the Somaticell® kit and Direct Cell Count (DCC) respectively, and 0.943 between the Somaticell® kit and Direct Cell Count (DCC). The methods can be recommended for monitoring the quality of raw milk kept in a cooling tank in the production unit

Leite cru de quatro regiões leiteiras brasileiras: perspectivas de atendimento dos requisitos microbiológicos estabelecidos pela Instrução Normativa 51

Evidências que o leite produzido e consumido no Brasil nem sempre apresenta a qualidade desejada têm gerado a discussão e desenvolvimento de novas políticas de incentivo à produção leiteira, resultando no desenvolvimento do Programa Nacional de Melhoria da Qualidade do Leite. em complementação, em 2002 o Ministério da Agricultura publicou a Instrução Normativa 51 (IN51), com importantes inovações em relação à conservação e transporte do leite cru, além de estabelecimento de um padrão de qualidade para esse tipo de leite (10(6) UFC/mL), a ser implantado em diferentes prazos nas diferentes regiões do país, a partir de 2005. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo verificar se o leite cru produzido em quatro áreas de quatro estados produtores de leite no Brasil estaria, nesse momento, em condições de cumprir o estabelecido na IN 51, especialmente quanto ao atendimento dos padrões microbiológicos previstos. Amostras de leite cru, coletadas em 210 diferentes propriedades nas regiões de Viçosa, MG (47), Pelotas, RS (50), Londrina, PR (63) e Botucatu, SP (50), foram analisadas quanto aos níveis de contaminação por aeróbios mesófilos, utilizando o PetrifilmTM AC. Parcela significativa das amostras (48,6%) apresentaram contagens acima do determinado pela IN51, sendo 21,3% na região de Viçosa (MG), 56,0% na região de Pelotas (RS), 47,6% na região de Londrina (PR) e 68,0% na região de Botucatu (SP). Considerando as diferenças de cada região, foi possível observar a importância da refrigeração na conservação e transporte da produção, bem como da implantação de boas práticas e assistência técnica nas propriedades. Os resultados obtidos permitem concluir que a adequação às normas estabelecidas pela IN51 pode ser mais difícil em algumas regiões do que em outras, sendo fundamental a adoção da refrigeração na conservação e no transporte da produção, e de programas regionais de assistência a produtores leiteiros.

CONDICOES BACTERIOLOGICAS DE LEITE CRU E DE LEITE PASTEURIZADO NA REGIAO DE ARARAQUARA, SP, BRASIL

Milk can be an important spreading vehicle of pathogenic agents mainly for young children who are an important group of milk consumers. 135 milk samples (77 of raw milk and 58 of pasteurized milk) were analysed in order to verify the number of heterotrophic bacteria, of Staphylococcus aureus and of total coliforms, as well as to determine presence of Salmonella, Shigella, enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) and enteroinvasive Escherichia coli (EIEC). The results were negative for Salmonella, Shigella and EIEC. EPEC serotypes 0:28, 0:111 and 0:55 were isolated in 4 of raw milk samples. The heterotrophic bacteria was found in counts over 30.000 UFC/mL in 91%, 25% and 68,75% respectively of raw milk, milk grade B and grade C. Counts over 30.000 coliforms/mL were found in 70,13%, 6,25% and 6,24% of the raw milk, B and C, respectively. 32,40% of the raw milk had counts of S. aureus over 3.000 UFC/mL.

Eficácia do tetra-test como ferramenta de gestão da qualidade do leite cru refrigerado

The effectiveness of a new management tool for screening refrigerated raw milk quality in a dairy industry is provided. Three hundred and seventy-four samples of raw milk from individual producers and 125 samples from bulk milk carriers from the same producers were analyzed. Producers' samples underwent a fast tube reduction test, or Tetra-Test, to estimate total bacteriological charge and their predominant microbiota. Bulk milk samples underwent standard plate count (SPC) as reference method. Tetra-test was effective in screening and assessing the microbiological quality of refrigerated raw milk, since 82.4% of samples with more than 106UFC/mL were readily detected (5 minutes to 2h). The test may be employed as a management tool either in screening or in interventions on the detected problem. In fact, its results provided complementary information on the characteristics of dominant microbiota. Most samples failed in compliance to IN 51 requirements. Further, 211 samples (56.4%) showed high microbial charge and, consequently, poor quality raw milk. Psychrotrophic groups were not yet the main degrading factors of cooled raw milk, albeit present in 76.8% of samples.
