Indicadores de qualidade e composição de leite informal comercializado na região Sudeste do Estado de São Paulo

The informal milk is recognized as the product marketed without inspection. We evaluated the microbiological quality, nutritional ingredients and substances inhibiting bacterial growth in 100 informal samples from cows milk, marketed in the southwest region of the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil. It was found that 77% of Somatic Cell Count (SCC) and 86% of Total Bacterial Count (TBC) of the samples were at odds with the maximum values required by Instruction Rules 62 of the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Supply. It was identified to solids contents in disagreement (36%), protein (23%), fat (38%), nonfat dry extract (43%) and 73% urea nitrogen. In 59% of the samples was detected residues of the bacterial growth inhibitors. Were isolated 240 strains of micro-organisms with a prevalence of enterobacteria, streptococci, staphylococci and fungi. The informal milk is marketed in the region without the minimum hygienic conditions and present risks to public health, and represents serious socio-economic problem for the region.

Fauna de dípteros de morcegos (Chiroptera, Phyllostomidae): composição, taxa de infestação e prevalência em cinco áreas no estado de São Paulo

As taxas de infestação de dípteros ectoparasitos de Chiropteros foram estudadas em cinco regiões do Estado de São Paulo, os aspectos ecológicos da relação hospedeiro/parasitas em Chiroptera são pouco explorados em relação aos ectoparasitos e carecem de mais informações. Tendo tais aspectos em vista os objetivos desse trabalho foram: (1) listar a composição da fauna de dípteros ectoparasitos associados aos morcegos filostomídeos; e (2) examinar se houve diferenças nos valores de prevalência e incidência nas diferentes áreas de estudo (relacionando tais fatores também ao sexo e idade do hospedeiro).. No presente estudo foram coletados 378 indivíduos de dez espécies de dípteros ectoparasitas, sendo setes delas pertencentes a família Streblidae, uma a família Nycteribiidae, e ainda duas espécies de ácaros pertencentes a família dos Spinturnicidae. As espécies de ectoparasitas mais abundantes foram Pararichobius longincrus (21,9%), Trichobius joblingi (17,4%) e Megistopoda proxima (33,7%). As análises estáticas parasitológicas foram feitas as espécies mais abundantes, calculou-se o valor da prevalência, taxa média de infestação, e os diferentes valores relativos ao status reprodutivo, sexo e idade do hospedeiro., as taxas de prevalência encontradas no presente estudo foram similares a estudos anteriores feitos na região de São Paulo e no geral houve uma tendência as taxas de infestação e prevalência serem maiores em jovens e fêmeas grávidas e lactantes. Apesar de tal constatação não é possível afirmar que haja uma correlação estatística entre hospediros mais jovens e fêmeas grávidas e maiores taxas de prevalência. O estudo ajuda a elucidar a composição faunística dos ectoparasitos de Chiropteros, e a esclarecer alguns aspectos da relação ecológica entre parasita hospedeiro

Tratamento de superfície de implantes dentários: SBF

Various surface treatments of dental implants have been developed in order to ensure anchorage to bone tissue, optimization of the determinants of electronic structure, crystallinity, composition and properties. Coating techniques have been proposed in order tocreate unionbiochemicalable to accelerate the early stages ofbone tissue, combining the positive properties of titanium and its alloys bioactivity of ceramic materials. This paper discusses protocol for handling the SBF coating of titanium alloys. The apatite phase nucleation occurs by immersing the substrate in synthetic solution simulating blood plasma (Simulated Body Fluid). The protocol allows manipulation of the SBF solution to establish guidelines regarding the usestreamlinedand organized to make practical application.

Avaliação da composição química, proteólise e propriedades funcionais do queijo mussarela comercial com teor reduzido de gordura

Chemical composition, proteolysis and functional properties of commercial Mozzarella cheese with reduced fat content found in the market of Londrina – PR were evaluated. The cheeses were analyzed for chemical composition, meltability, free oil formation, and the indexes of extension and depth of proteolysis during 30, 45 and 60 days of storage at 5°C. The samples showed no significant difference in chemical composition. The fat content of all samples complied with current legislation regarding the minimum percentage (25%) of fat reduction. Among the three brands tested, the cheeses of brand C showed the highest depth index of proteolysis. In all chesses, the meltability has increased during storage period. The, the brand C had significantly higher (p <0.05) free oil content when compared to other brands tested.

A influência da prática de atividade regular na composição corporal de pacientes com osteoartrite

Introduction: Osteoarthritis, osteoarthrosis or degenerative joint disease characterized by progressive loss of articular cartilage, pain, changes in subchondral bone, osteophyte formation and proliferation. Age, bone mineral density, joint instability, excess weight among others, are risk factors. Methods: To check the influence os physical exercise in patients with the disease were evaluated 39 patients over 50 years, both genders, with clinical and / or radiographic osteoarthritis were divided into experimental group (EG) and control group (CG). EG performed regular physical activity (aerobics) three times a week for four months, while CG was submitted to physical therapy painkiller in the same period. We analyzed demographics, BMI, basal metabolic rate and percentage of fat mass. Results: The results showed that regular physical activity reduced the body fat, but because of their characteristics and low-impact aerobics was not observed consistent benefits in muscle component. However, compared with the CG demonstrated a positive impact on other parameters of body composition.

Cryptococcus: isolamento ambiental e caracterização bioquímica

Cryptococcosis is an opportunistic fungal infection caused by Cryptococcus yeasts, especially C. neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii. The fungus is found in substrates of animal and vegetable origin, and infection occurs through inhalation and seedlings present in the environment. The present study aimed to investigate the existence of microfocus Cryptococcus sp. from the environmental samples of Araçatuba city, São Paulo, featuring new niches, by decoupling the direct relationship between fungus and host in order to minimize the risk of contamination of man and animals, understanding the ecoepidemiology of Cryptococcus. Fifty samples from hollows and tree trunks were harvested (Cassia sp., Ficus sp., Caesalpinea peltophorides) from ten representatives in the urban perimeter. The samples were immediately sent to the Laboratory of Bacteriology and Mycology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Araçatuba - Unesp where they were processed and plated on Petri dishes containing agar seed Niger and Sabouraud dextrose agar with chloramphenicol, incubated at 30ºC for a period of no less than 5 days. Afterwards they were subimitted to biochemical tests: urease production, thermotolerance at 37°C and quimiotipagem in CGB agar (L- Canavanine-Glycine-Bromothymol blue). The results showed that 17 (34%) cultures were positive for Cryptococcus, 9 (18%) for Cryptococcus gattii and 8 (16%) for Cryptococcus neoformans. Other yeast correlated as Rhodotorula sp. and Candida sp. were isolated. We conclude that the infectious propagules of Cryptococcus are dispersed in nature and constitute an environmental microfocus, not necessarily being bound to a single host.
