Espaço e memória em o Vice-Cônsul de Marguerite Duras

No presente estudo pretendemos analisar o romance O Vice-cônsul, de Marguerite Duras, a partir dos temas memória e espaço, em que a relação entre esses temas perece ser desvendada à medida que percorremos a trajetória das principais personagens – mendiga, Anne-Marie Stretter e vice-cônsul. Nossa pesquisa faz também referência a diversas obras da autora – como O Amante, O deslumbramento de Lol V. Stein, Les lieux de Marguerite Duras, Boas falas: conversas sem compromisso – que servem de suporte a nossa análise, principalmente por que tais obras trazem à tona o universo literário durassiano que, em nosso entendimento, está vinculado às memórias da infância e da adolescência, fase que corresponde ao período passado na Indochina. Lugares e personagens, portanto, são constantemente reencontrados tendo suas histórias sempre utilizadas como matéria-prima para uma nova criação, negando inclusive qualquer fronteira entre as artes.

Carcass and meat traits of lambs fed by-products from the processing of oil seeds

We evaluated the effect of adding by-products from the processing of oil seeds in the diet of lambs on the carcass and meat traits. Twenty-four non-castrated weaned male Santa Inês lambs with approximately 70 days of age and initial average weight of 19.11 ± 2.12 kg were distributed into a completely randomized design. Treatments consisted of diets containing by-products with 70% of concentrate and 30% of tifton hay (Cynodon spp.) and were termed SM: control with soybean meal; SC: formulated with soybean cake; SUC: formulated with sunflower cake and PC: formulated with peanut cake. Diets had no effects on the carcass traits evaluated. There was no significant effect on the mean values of perirenal, omental and mesenteric fats (0.267, 0.552 and 0.470 kg, respectively) and there was no influence on the percentages of moisture, ether extract, crude protein or ash in the loin between experimental diets. Diets containing by-products from the processing of oil seeds did not change fatty acids found in lamb meat. The use of by-products from oil seeds provided similar carcass and meat traits, thus their use can be recommended as eventual protein and energy sources for feedlot lambs.

Anti dermatophytic therapy: prospects for the discovery of new drugs from natural products

Millions of people and animals suffer from superficial infections caused by a group of highly specialized filamentous fungi, the dermatophytes, which only infect keratinized structures. With the appearance of AIDS, the incidence of dermatophytosis has increased. Current drug therapy used for these infections is often toxic, long-term, and expensive and has limited effectiveness; therefore, the discovery of new anti dermatophytic compounds is a necessity. Natural products have been the most productive source for new drug development. This paper provides a brief review of the current literature regarding the presence of dermatophytes in immunocompromised patients, drug resistance to conventional treatments and new anti dermatophytic treatments.
