O programa de aquisição de alimentos (PAA) e as transformações socioterritoriais no Rio Grande do Norte

The Acquisition Food Program (Programa de Aquisição de Alimentos – PAA) is one of the governmental public politics proposed, in the year of 2003, that has the focus in the family-run farm in Brazil. This Program has as objectives: commercialize the familyrun farm products, bought by the government agencies; to encourage production, and promoting actions that improve quality food of people facing starving risk. This Program has been working, to some extent, as complement to the Program of family-run farm Enhancement (PRONAF). The present study has as its focus to analyse the social territorials changes observed in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, as a result of the PAA implementation. In this sense, it was promoted a discussion between territory and rules. I this work, public politics are understood as rules. This procedure was important in order to understand how the rules have influenced territorial changes, creating new social and territorial relations. In the research process was used scientific and institutional texts on the subject. It was applied a quiz with 97 PAA’s supplying farmers, and interviews were done with the Program managers in Federal (MDA), State (CONAB and EMATER) and municipal (local office of EMATER and Departments of Agriculture) levels. Social public politics were also analyzed with the aim of understand the context where PAA is situated in relation with the public politics directed to familyrun farm as a whole since 1980, within new Brazilian democratization process. With the information collected in the field, plus the secondary data, maps, charts, tables and cartograms were made. With all of this, a socio-economical profile of the family-run farm in the Rio Grande do Norte was traced, as well as the included in this research. Before this picture, we concluded that PAA indeed represents a forward in public politics directed to family-run farm. However, in spite of the importance of the Program for the family-run farmers to come of age, but in order to the rural and family-run farm reality in the Rio Grande do Norte come to present meaningful changes much still remain to be done.

Thermodynamic Study Of The Micellization Of Zwitterionic Surfactants And Their Interaction With Polymers In Water By Isothermal Titration Calorimetry.

The micellization of a homologous series of zwitterionic surfactants, a group of sulfobetaines, was studied using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) in the temperature range from 15 to 65 °C. The increase in both temperature and the alkyl chain length leads to more negative values of ΔGmic(0) , favoring the micellization. The entropic term (ΔSmic(0)) is predominant at lower temperatures, and above ca. 55-65 °C, the enthalpic term (ΔHmic(0)) becomes prevalent, figuring a jointly driven process as the temperature increases. The interaction of these sulfobetaines with different polymers was also studied by ITC. Among the polymers studied, only two induced the formation of micellar aggregates at lower surfactant concentration: poly(acrylic acid), PAA, probably due to the formation of hydrogen bonds between the carboxylic group of the polymer and the sulfonate group of the surfactant, and poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate), PSS, probably due to the incorporation of the hydrophobic styrene group into the micelles. The prevalence of the hydrophobic and not the electrostatic contributions to the interaction between sulfobetaine and PSS was confirmed by an increased interaction enthalpy in the presence of electrolytes (NaCl) and by the observation of a significant temperature dependence, the latter consistent with the proposed removal of hydrophobic groups from water.

Sensitivity and specificity of machine learning classifiers for glaucoma diagnosis using Spectral Domain OCT and standard automated perimetry

PURPOSE: To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of machine learning classifiers (MLCs) for glaucoma diagnosis using Spectral Domain OCT (SD-OCT) and standard automated perimetry (SAP). METHODS: Observational cross-sectional study. Sixty two glaucoma patients and 48 healthy individuals were included. All patients underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination, achromatic standard automated perimetry (SAP) and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) imaging with SD-OCT (Cirrus HD-OCT; Carl Zeiss Meditec Inc., Dublin, California). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were obtained for all SD-OCT parameters and global indices of SAP. Subsequently, the following MLCs were tested using parameters from the SD-OCT and SAP: Bagging (BAG), Naive-Bayes (NB), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Radial Basis Function (RBF), Random Forest (RAN), Ensemble Selection (ENS), Classification Tree (CTREE), Ada Boost M1(ADA),Support Vector Machine Linear (SVML) and Support Vector Machine Gaussian (SVMG). Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (aROC) obtained for isolated SAP and OCT parameters were compared with MLCs using OCT+SAP data. RESULTS: Combining OCT and SAP data, MLCs' aROCs varied from 0.777(CTREE) to 0.946 (RAN).The best OCT+SAP aROC obtained with RAN (0.946) was significantly larger the best single OCT parameter (p<0.05), but was not significantly different from the aROC obtained with the best single SAP parameter (p=0.19). CONCLUSION: Machine learning classifiers trained on OCT and SAP data can successfully discriminate between healthy and glaucomatous eyes. The combination of OCT and SAP measurements improved the diagnostic accuracy compared with OCT data alone.

Encoding combinatorial libraries: A novel application of fluorescent silica colloids

A major challenge associated with using large chemical libraries synthesized on microscopic solid support beads is the rapid discrimination of individual compounds in these libraries. This challenge can be overcome by encoding the beads with 1 mum silica colloidal particles (reporters) that contain specific and identifiable combinations of fluorescent byes. The colored bar code generated on support beads during combinatorial library synthesis can be easily, rapidly, and inexpensively decoded through the use of fluorescence microscopy. All reporters are precoated with polyelectrolytes [poly(acrylic acid), PAA, poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate PSSS, polyethylenimine, PEI, and/or poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride), PDADMAC] with the aim of enhancing surface charge, promoting electrostatic attraction to the bead, and facilitating polymer bridging between the bead and reporter for permanent adhesion. As shown in this article, reporters coated with polyelectrolytes clearly outperform uncoated reporters with regard to quantity of attached reporters per bead (54 +/- 23 in 2500 mum(2) area for PEI/PAA coated and 11 +/- 6 for uncoated reporters) and minimization of cross-contamination (1 red reporter in 2500 mum(2) area of green-labeled bead for PEI/PAA coated and 26 +/- 15 red reporters on green-labeled beads for uncoated reporters after 10 days). Examination of various polyelectrolyte systems shows that the magnitude of the xi -potential of polyelectrolyte-coated reporters (-64 mV for PDADMAC/PSSS and -42 mV for PEI/PAA-coated reporters) has no correlation with the number of reporters that adhere to the solid support beads (21 +/- 16 in 2500 mum(2) area for PDADMAC/PSSS and 54 +/- 23 for PEI/PAA-coated reporters). The contribution of polymer bridging to the adhesion has a far greater influence than electrostatic attraction and is demonstrated by modification of the polyelectrolyte multilayers using gamma irradiation of precoated reporters either in aqueous solution or in polyelectrolyte solution.

An efficient Fmoc strategy for the rapid synthesis of peptide para-nitroanilides

A new strategy has been developed for the rapid synthesis of peptide para-nitroanilides (pNA). The method involves derivatization of commercially available tritylchloride resin (TCP-resin) with 1,4-phenylenediamine, subsequent coupling with desired amino acids by the standard Fmoc protocol, and oxidation of the intermediate para-aminoanilides (pAA) with Oxone(R). This procedure allows easy assembly of the desired para-aminoanilides (pAA) on standard resin and efficient oxidation and purification of the corresponding para-nitroanilides (pNA). The method allows easy access to any desired peptide para-nitroanilides, which are useful substrates for the characterization and study of proteolytic enzymes.

Programa Eurosocial II: plan anual de acci??n 2014

O presente Plano Anual de A????o (PAA 2014) inscreve-se em clara continuidade com os precedentes exerc??cios program??ticos do programa EUROsocial II. No entanto, na medida que se passou o equador e se entra na reta final do Programa, se realizou um grande esfor??o para concentrar a????es e se focar em pa??ses que apresentam menos riscos e maiores condi????es de viabilidade para o alcance dos resultados esperados. Neste sentido, no ano 2014 vai representar um ponto de inflex??o, no que culminar?? grande parte das a????es do Programa, documentar-se-?? uma boa parte dos resultados conseguidos, projetando para o ano 2015 linhas de trabalho mais intersetoriais e estrat??gicas. Por conseguinte tem-se um PAA mais simplificado e melhor estruturado (de 10 ??reas tem??ticas passou-se a 4 macro-??reas), com uma dimens??o regional mais potente que tem permitido elevar a dimens??o estrat??gica do programa, e com a????es mais interconectadas e coerentes que respondem melhor a uma vis??o unit??ria do Programa. Neste exerc??cio de programa????o tanto os s??cios operativos como os s??cios coordenadores t??m sabido conjugar melhor os dif??ceis equil??brios que deve manter o programa: orienta????o a demanda vs. gest??o para resultados; dimens??o regional vs. abordagem de problem??ticas a n??vel nacional; dimens??o estrat??gica vs. dimens??o operativa. Tamb??m se incorporou algumas das recomenda????es realizadas por parte da avalia????o de meio de percurso que se realizou no segundo semestre do 2013.

Detecção e caracterização de patotipos diarreiogênicos de Escherichia coli por métodos fenotípicos e genotípicos em indivíduos de todas as idades atendidos nas unidades de saúde de Vitória-ES

A diarreia é a segunda causa de mortalidade em <5 anos e é responsável pela diminuição da produtividade na população economicamente ativa. Dentre os agentes infecciosos envolvidos, seis patotipos diarreiogênicos de Escherichia coli (DEC) merecem destaque: E. coli enteropatogênica (EPEC), E.coli enteroinvasora (EIEC), E. coli enterotoxigênica (ETEC), E. coli enteroemorrágica ou produtora de toxina de Shiga (EHEC/STEC), E. coli enteroagregativa (EAEC) e E. coli de aderência difusa (DAEC). O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar a frequência dos patotipos de DEC e caracterizar fenotípica e genotipicamente EAEC, DAEC, aEPEC e E. coli chain-like adhesion (CLA) isolados de fezes indivíduos de todas as idades atendidos nas Unidades de Saúde do município de Vitória, ES, entre janeiro de 2008 e junho de 2011. Os isolados de E. coli foram submetidos à: (i) PCR para detecção dos genes eae, bfpA, aat, lt, st, ipaH, stx1 e stx2; (ii) hibridização de colônia com as sondas eae, aat e daaC; (iii) adesão em cultura de células HEp-2 para evidenciar padrão de aderência agregativa (AA), difusa (DA) e chain-like adhesion (CLA). PCR para detecção de genes de virulência foi realizado em isolados de EAEC, CLA, DAEC e aEPEC. Isolados de EAEC e CLA, foram submetidos a testes de formação de biofilme e de película. Foram obtidos 328 espécimes fecais e E. coli foi isolada de 85,7%. Os seguintes patotipos foram identificados: EAEC (18,3%), DAEC (11%), aEPEC (2,6%), ETEC (0,7%). CLA foi identificada em 4,9% e EIEC, tEPEC e STEC não foram detectados. Dos 60 isolados de EAEC (AA) (25% aat+ por PCR e 35% por hibridização), fímbrias de aderência agregativa foram evidenciadas em baixa frequência (aggA- 1,7%, aafA- 0%, agg3A- 11,7%, hdA- 8,3%). EAEC típica correspondeu a 31,7% dos isolados de EAEC (aggR+), e foram significantes nestas a formação de biofilme, escore 3+ de produção de película e presença dos genes aat, agg3A, hdA, aap, sat, pet, set1A e iucA. Todos os isolados CLA apresentaram o gene pet, 87,5%, foram aggR-, formaram película e nenhum produziu biofilme. Dentre dos 42 isolados de DAEC (DA), a sonda daaC detectou 52,4%. PCR evidenciou adesinas afa/Dr (daaD e afa) em 59,5% e adesina AIDA-I não foi encontrada, sugerindo que outras adesinas estejam envolvidas na adesão da DAEC. Isolados de DAEC afa/Dr + foram estatisticamente mais isolados de <5 anos. Em aEPEC, os genes da ilha de patogenicidade OI-122 pesquisados, nleE, efa1/lifA e paa foram evidenciados em 30% dos isolados, todos provenientes de <5 anos. Características de virulência de tEAEC e DAEC Afa/Dr sugerem que sejam subpopulações relacionadas com diarreia. CLA não parece ser variante de EAEC.

Carbon dots: nanopartículas de carbono fluorescentes para marcação e visualização de células

A imagiologia por fluorescência é uma técnica extremamente útil em investigação biomédica. Actualmente existe uma vasta gama de fluoróforos disponíveis para marcação por fluorescência. Contudo estes marcadores possuem limitações que condicionam a sua aplicação em sistemas biológicos. As nanopartículas de carbono fluorescentes (CNPs) constituem uma recente classe de marcadores fluorescentes com elevada biocompatibilidade. O objectivo deste trabalho consistiu em produzir de CNPs através de métodos simples, a sua caracterização e aplicação como marcadores celulares para visualização de células em microscopia de fluorescência. Inicialmente foram produzidas nanopartículas (NPs) seguindo métodos mencionados na literatura. Seguidamente foram produzidas CNPs a partir de PAA, por via hidrotérmica, e a partir da carbonização de grãos de cortiça para as quais foi feito um estudo do efeito da variável temperatura de carbonização. Das amostras produzidas, nove foram devidamente estudadas. A espectroscopia de absorção no UV-Vis revelou perfis de absorção característicos para este tipo de NPs. A emissão de fluorescência das CNPs caracterizadada por espectroscopia de fluorescência evidenciou comportamentos emissivos típicos destas NPs tais como dependência do máximo de emissão com o comprimento de onda de excitação. A intensidade da fluorescência das CNPs sintetizadas por via hidrotérmica é, em geral, maior com rendimentos quânticos de fluorescência a variar entre 4 e 11%. Os rendimentos quânticos das CNPs produzidas por carbonização variam entre 2 e 5%. As imagens de microscopia electrónica demonstram que as CNPs possuíam formas esféricas. Os tamanhos determinados por SEM, TEM e DLS revelaram que as dimensões das NPs caem entre os 2 e 150nm. Por DRX constatou-se que as CNPs possuem uma estrutura atómica desorganizada. A análise FTIR mostrou que as amostras de CNPs produzidas a partir de macromoléculas pelo método hidrotérmico possuíam uma grande quantidade de precursor não degradado. Para as restantes CNPs foi verificada a presença de grupos funcionais polares que lhes conferem solubilidade em meio aquoso. Com 1H-RMN verificou-se uma diminuição de grupos alifáticos e aumento de grupos aromáticos nas CNPs de cortiça carbonizada, com o aumento da temperatura de carbonização. O potencial ζ da amostra obtida com maior temperatura de carbonização foi -25,7mV. Nos estudos in vitro realizados apenas as NPs produzidas a partir de ácido cítrico e etilenodiamina por via hidrotérmica marcaram eficazmente as linhas celulares de osteoblastos e de fibroblastos. A eficiência da marcação aparenta ser dependente do tempo de incubação com CNPs.

Consulta de enfermagem a pacientes alcoolistas em um programa de assistência ao alcoolismo

OBJETIVO: Descrever e analisar as atividades desenvolvidas pela enfermagem na consulta dirigida a alcoolistas do Programa de Atendimento ao Alcoolista do Hospital Universitário Cassiano Antônio Moraes da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (PAA/HUCAM/UFES). MÉTODOS: O estudo foi desenvolvido no PAA/HUCAM/UFES a partir de um levantamento das consultas de enfermagem (CE) realizadas com pacientes alcoolistas no período de janeiro a dezembro de 2002. A coleta de dados deu-se por meio de um questionário contendo dados de identificação e do seguimento de enfermagem. Foram empregadas as análises quantitativa, através da estatística descritiva, e qualitativa nas etapas da CE. RESULTADOS: Foram realizadas 603 CE (28,7% em primeiro atendimento e 71,3% em retornos). Quanto ao perfil da clientela, 28% eram da região metropolitana; 94% do sexo masculino e 6% do feminino; 50,6% casados, na faixa etária de 40 a 60 anos; e 73,6% apresentaram grau de severidade grave de dependência alcoólica. Nas orientações para o autocuidado na primeira consulta, priorizou-se a diminuição dos sinais e sintomas da síndrome de abstinência, e nas de seguimento, o alcoolismo como doença e suas complicações. CONCLUSÃO: A CE no PAA/HUCAM/UFES tem sido desenvolvida através do atendimento prioritário das necessidades humanas básicas (teoria de Horta), concentrando a atenção de enfermagem no autocuidado (teoria de Orem). Dessa forma, a enfermagem vem propiciando condições facilitadoras por meio de uma informação qualificada e contínua que vise a manutenção da abstinência do álcool e a reformulação no estilo de vida, objetivando uma melhor reinserção do usuário na sociedade.

Classical predictive electrodynamics of two charges with radiation: Energy and 3. momentum balance and scattering crossections-II

We deal with a classical predictive mechanical system of two spinless charges where radiation is considered and there are no external fields. The terms (2,2)Paa of the expansion in the charges of the HamiltonJacobi momenta are calculated. Using these, together with known previous results, we can obtain the paa up to the fourth order. Then we have calculated the radiated energy and the 3-momentum in a scattering process as functions of the impact parameter and the incident energy for the former and 3-momentum for the latter. Scattering cross-sections are also calculated. Good agreement with well known results, including those of quantum electrodynamics, has been found.

Morphology and segregation in two-component diffusion-limited aggregation

A diffusion-limited-aggregation (DLA) model with two components (A and B species) is presented to investigate the structure of the composite deposits. The sticking probability PAB (=PBA) between the different species is introduced into the original DLA model. By using computer simulation it is shown that various patterns are produced with varying the sticking probabilities PAB (=PBA) and PAA (= PBB), where PAA (=PBB) is the sticking probability between the same species. Segregated patterns can be analyzed under the condition PAB < PAA, assumed throughout the paper. With decreasing sticking probability PAB, a clustering of the same species occurs. With sufficiently small values of both sticking probabilities PAB and PAA, the deposit becomes dense and the segregated patterns of the composite deposit show a striped structure. The effect of the concentration on the pattern morphology is also shown.

Gas-chromatography mass-spectrometry determination of phthalic acid in human urine as a biomarker of folpet exposure.

Agricultural workers are exposed to folpet, but biomonitoring data are limited. Phthalimide (PI), phthalamic acid (PAA), and phthalic acid (PA) are the ring metabolites of this fungicide according to animal studies, but they have not yet been measured in human urine as metabolites of folpet, only PA as a metabolite of phthalates. The objective of this study was thus to develop a reliable gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method to quantify the sum of PI, PAA, and PA ring-metabolites of folpet in human urine. Briefly, the method consisted of adding p-methylhippuric acid as an internal standard, performing an acid hydrolysis at 100 °C to convert ring-metabolites into PA, purifying samples by ethyl acetate extraction, and derivatizing with N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoro acetamide prior to GC-MS analysis. The method had a detection limit of 60.2 nmol/L (10 ng/mL); it was found to be accurate (mean recovery, 97%), precise (inter- and intra-day percentage relative standard deviations <13%), and with a good linearity (R (2) > 0.98). Validation was conducted using unexposed peoples urine spiked at concentrations ranging from 4.0 to 16.1 μmol/L, along with urine samples of volunteers dosed with folpet, and of exposed workers. The method proved to be (1) suitable and accurate to determine the kinetic profile of PA equivalents in the urine of volunteers orally and dermally administered folpet and (2) relevant for the biomonitoring of exposure in workers.

Effect of drift on segregation in two-component diffusion-limited aggregation

An effect of drift is investigated on the segregation pattern in diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA) with two components (A and B species). The sticking probability PAB (=PBA) between the different species is introduced into the DLA model with drift, where the sticking probability PAA (=PBB) between the same species equals 1. By using computer simulation it is found that the drift has an important effect on not only the morphology but also the segregation pattern. Under the drift and the small sticking probability, a characteristic pattern appears where elongated clusters of A species and of B species are periodically dispersed. The period decreases with increasing drift. The periodic structure of the deposits is characterized by an autocorrelation function. The shape of the cluster consisting of only A species (or B species) shows a vertically elongated filamentlike structure. Each cluster becomes vertically longer with decreasing sticking probability PAB. The segregation pattern is distinctly different from that with no drift and a small sticking probability PAA. The effect of the concentration on the segregation pattern is also shown.
