Notas de Población Vol.36 N° 88

En este número especial de Notas de Población se da a conocer una selección de los trabajos presentados durante el Seminario-Taller “Los censos de 2010 y la migración interna, internacional y otras formas de movilidad territorial”, que se llevó a cabo en la sede de la Comisión Económica para América Latina y el Caribe (CEPAL), en Santiago de Chile, los días 10, 11 y 12 de diciembre de 2008. El seminario se enfocó en la revisión de la experiencia regional en el tratamiento de la migración interna, internacional y otras formas de movilidad territorial en los censos recientes, y en la realización de recomendaciones para la próxima ronda censal. Sus objetivos específicos apuntaron a actualizar el estado del arte sobre la medición de estos procesos; revisar las recomendaciones vigentes de las Naciones Unidas así como las definiciones y prácticas nacionales al respecto; conocer los avances del grupo de trabajo de Migración y Remesas de la CEA-CEPAL y establecer recomendaciones técnicas en torno a los aspectos conceptuales y operativos de la medición censal y el análisis de la migración y la movilidad cotidiana. Así mismo, destinó un espacio para que los institutos nacionales de estadísticas pudieran describir el estado de las definiciones sobre el módulo de migración en sus respectivos censos de la ronda de 2010. Los artículos presentados en este número refuerzan la importancia de los censos de población en América Latina como fuente poderosa de información sobre la migración interna e internacional y otras formas de movilidad territorial de la población, y además validan la pertinencia de intercambiar experiencias recientes y lecciones aprendidas en la materia en vísperas de la ronda 2010 de los censos de la región. También reconocen y explicitan las dificultades y limitaciones de la información censal para la medición y la caracterización detallada de estos procesos.

Effect of argon ion bombardment on amorphous silicon carbonitride films

Amorphous silicon carbonitride (a-SiCN:H) films were synthesized by radiofrequency (RF) Plasma Enhanced Vapor Chemical Deposition (PECVD) using hexamethyldisilazane (HMDSN) as precursor compound. Then, the films were post-treated by Plasma Immersion Ion Implantation (PIII) in argon atmosphere from 15 to 60 min The hardness of the film enhanced after ion implantation, and the sample treated at 45 min process showed hardness greater than sixfold that of the untreated sample. This result is explained by the crosslinking and densification of the structure Films were exposed to oxygen plasma for determining of the etching rate. It decreased monotonically from 33 angstrom/min to 19 angstrom/min for the range of process time, confirming structural alterations. Hydrophobic character of the a-SiCN:H films were modified immediately after ion bombardment, due to incorporation of polar groups. However, the high wettability of the films acquired by the ion implantation was diminished after aging in air. Therefore, argon PIII made a-SiCN.H films mechanically more resistant and altered their hydrophobic character.

Efficiency of superstimulatory protocol P-36 associated with the administration of eCG and LH in Nelore cows

Recent work with P-36 demonstrates that the replacement of the last two doses of Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) with equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG) increases embryo yields. However, it is unclear if the positive effect of eCG is related to its FSH-like activity, LH-like activity, or both. This study aimed to verify the replacement of eCG with pLH on the last day of superstimulatory treatment. Twenty-five Nelore cows were allocated to four groups: P-36 (control), P-36/eCG, P-36/LH2, and P-36/LH4. All animals underwent four treatments in a crossover design. The control group cows were superstimulated with decreasing doses of porcine Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (pFSH, 133 mg, im). In the P-36/eCG, P-36/LH2, and P-36/LH4 groups, the last two doses of pFSH were replaced in the former group by two doses of eCG (200 IU each dose, im) and in the latter two groups by two doses of pLH (1 and 2 mg each dose, im), respectively. Donors received fixed-time artificial insemination 12 and 24 hours after pLH. Embryo flushing was performed on D16. Data were analyzed by ANOVA (Proc Mixed, SAS). There was a trend of decreasing ovulation rate when comparing groups LH2 and eCG (P = 0.06). However, there was no significant difference in the mean number of viable embryos among groups P-36 (3.3 ± 0.7), P-36/eCG (4.5 ± 0.5), P-36/LH2 (3.7 ± 0.8), and P-36/LH4 (4.2 ± 1.0). It is concluded that the replacement of eCG by pLH on the last day of superstimulatory treatment can be performed with no significant variation in the production of viable embryos.
