Em prosseguimento ao estudo da biologia do Triatoma vitticeps (Gonçalves et al., 1988), foram feitas observações sobre a sua resistência ao jejum. Dos 286 ovos obtidos, apenas 201 eclodiram e atingiram o estádio pretendido para as observações. Os demais não eclodiram, não completaram a muda ou morreram sem motivo aparente. As ninfas foram acondicionadas, individualmente em frascos de Borrel, devidamente registrados. Para a alimentação foram utilizados camundongos e a medida que as ninfas atingiam o estágio pretendido a alimentação era suspensa até ocorrer a morte. A avaliação da resistência ao jejum foi feita da seguinte forma: o intervalo de dias entre o último repasto e a morte e entre a muda e a morte. Verificou-se que a resistência está diretamente relacionada com a fase de desenvolvimento. Para os parâmetros último repasto/morte e muda/morte, ambos os sexos foram menos resistentes do que as ninfas de 3º e 2º estádios, respectivamente. O experimento teve duração de 15 meses e neste período as temperaturas máxima e mínima e a umidade relativa do ar variaram em média de 25 ± 2ºC e 81 ± 3% UR, respectivamente. O material foi proveniente da criação de triatomíneos mantida no Departamento de Entomologia do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz.

Observation about conhabitation among B. glabrata and B. tenagophila revealed a greater vulnerability of B. tenagophila population during the process of competition when its density was severaly decreased in 12 trials, moderate in 2 trials. It was higher than B. glabrata in only one trial. Some snail water chemical parameters analysed such as pH, alkalinity, conductivity and oxygen dissolve, an the viability rate of batch of eggs didn't give subsidy to explain the competition mechanism. The newly-born survival, in the situation of cohabitation, was low for both species. This reveals the existence of intra and interspecific competitive interacition. The fertility rate reduction of B. tenagophila during the cohabitation was considered as a cause of its exlusion. One of the factors that seems to have influenced the fertility rate was a possible wrong crossing.

Proyecto de investigación realizado a partir de una estancia en la Uppsala University entre octubre y noviembre del 2007. El proyecto se ha centrado en la utilización de métodos combinatorios para el cribado de ligandotecas quirales para la hidrogenación asimétrica de olefinas no funcionalizadas y iminas. Concretamente, se han cribado cuatro ligandotecas utilizando un multireactor de 12 reactores independientes con controlador de temperatura, agitación y presión. Este equipo permitió la toma y análisis de las muestras de forma automática por cromatrografía. Las ligandotecas contemplaban una variación sistemática de varios parámetros estructurales y/o electrónicos (módulos), que permitieron correlacionar las variaciones en los módulos con los cambios de actividad y selectividad del catalizador. Esto llevó a optimizar los modulos del ligando y la obtención de resultados excelentes en la hidrogenació asimétrica de diferentes olefinas no funcionalizadas. Los resultados superan a los mejores descritos en la bibliografía en esta reacción con la ventaja añadida del uso de ligandos de bajo coste y fáciles de sintetizar. Este trabajo representa la primera aplicación de ligandos fosfito para hidrogenación asimétrica.

Existen en el medio teatral varias técnicas de entrenamiento vocal para el actor de teatro. ¿Pueden usarse siempre las mismas técnicas indiferentemente del sujeto? ¿Es posible obtener de un ejercicio vocal siempre los mismos resultados o beneficios? Al analizar las rutinas básicas utilizadas en la preparación vocal para teatro desde las patologías funcionales de la voz, es posible afirmar que no todos los sujetos están en disposición física de cumplir con determinadas exigencias particulares. Este trabajo analiza las diferentes patologías funcionales de la voz partiendo de algunos ejercicios en los entrenamientos de Linklater y Houseman enfocados desde el manejo de patologías.

The biology immature stage of Stomoxys calcitrans (L.) was studied in the laboratory under four constant temperature. The study was carried out in biological incubators at 20, 25, 30 and 35-C; 65 ñ 10% relative humidity and 14 hours of photophase. The most favorable temperature for developing eggs, larval and pupal was 25-C, while 35-C proved to be harmful for a normal developing of S. calcitrans in larval stage. The incubation periods for egg were 69.90, 42.58, 26.10, 21.78 hours and 2.91, 1.77, 1.08, 0.90 days at 20, 25, 30, 35-C, respectively . The larval stage was 18.40, 11.63, 8.55 days and, the pupal stage, 8.60, 4.54, 3.60 days at 20, 25, 30-C, respectively. Threshold temperatures for males were a little higher than for females, however, this difference was lesser than 1-C. On the other hand, the quantity of energy (GD) for developing females was a little higher than for males. No difference was observed between the two methods used for calculating the above mentioned biological parameters of S. calcitrans.

Triatoma nitida is a wild species occurring in Mexico and Central America. In order to establish the length of its life cycle and transmission potential, the following parameters were observed: the incubation period, the interval between hatching, or moulting, and the first feeding; the number of blood meals and the time of development. The time-lapse before the bite, the length of feeding and the interval between the end of the blood meal and defecation, as well as the site of defecation were also analyzed. Average length of the egg incubation period was 18.2 days. Time interval between the food source offering and the bite was less than 4 min in 60//of the analyzed cases, except in the fifth instar, where only 38//of the insects began feeding in less than 5 min. The blood-sucking period was long and rising until the fifth instar, decreasing in adults, and ranging from 1 min to 2 and a half hours. Only 26//of the blood meals were followed by defecations within 20 min. The average length of the life cycle was 897.5 days.

Las células madre embrionarias (Embryonic Stem Cells; ESC) son células pluripotentes que presentan la capacidad de dividirse indefinidamente a la vez que mantienen la habilidad para diferenciarse a cualquier tipo celular. Aunque de manera rutinaria se derivan a partir de la masa celular interna de embriones en estadio de blastocisto, también pueden derivarse a partir de embriones en estadios precompactacionales y de embriones reconstruidos por procesos de transferencia nuclear. Debido a que durante el desarrollo embrionario temprano, momento en el que se derivan las ESC, tienen lugar profundos cambios de metilación en el genoma, tanto la derivación como el cultivo se consagran como técnicas que pueden alterar los patrones de metilación en genes regulados por impronta genómica. Con el objetivo de analizar la estabilidad epigenética de embriones preimplantacionales y ESC murinas, en este trabajo se ha optimizado un protocolo de anàlisis de los niveles de metilación mediante pirosecuenciación. Para ello se han seleccionado tres genes regulados por impronta genómica (H19/Igf2, Snrpn and Peg3), dos genes relacionados con el mantenimiento de pluripotencia en ESC (Oct4, Nanog y Sox2) y dos genes marcadores de diferenciación temprana (Cdx2 y Gata6). Nuestros resultados muestran que algunos grupos de embriones preimplantacionales presentan una hipo e hipermetilación en las regiones diferencialmente metiladas (Differentially Methylated Regions, DMRs) de los genes Snrpn y Peg3. Además, la línea de ESC analizada presentó anomalías en los tres genes regulados por impronta genómica. No obstante, el hecho de que esta línea fuera inestable a nivel cariotípico no permite establecer una relación entre el cultivo in vitro o la técnica de derivación y la inestabilidad epigenética demostrada. Por todo esto, parece pertinente analizar tanto la integridad epigenética como la estabilidad cromosómica de ESC antes de proceder a realizar ensayos clínicos en humanos.

How adult females of calyptrate Diptera recognize the appropriate breeding substrate is a matter of controversy. Among holometabolic insects, the feeding opportunities of immature stages are generally determined by the adult female choice of an oviposition site. The ovipositional and larvipositional substrate preference for the synanthropic flies (Chrysomya megacephala, C. putoria, Phaenicia cuprina: Calliphoridae; Atherigona orientalis, Synthesiomyia nudiseta: Muscidae; Ravinia belforti, Parasarcophaga ruficornis, Peckia chrysostoma: Sarcophagidae) is presented in this work. The substrate used for testing were the following: bovine minced meat, fish (sardine), bovine liver, shrimp, squid, human faeces and banana. Bovine minced meat was the ovipositional and larvipositional substrate preferred by seven species. Human faeces were preferred by R. belforti.

Experiments with Squamatoides trivitattus were carried out in two different controlled temperatures (16±1°C/50-60% RH and 27±1°C/70-80% RH). The viability of larvae and pupae at 27°C was 89.82% and 92.75% respectively. Larvae did not develop at 16°C. Larval development lasted for 20±4 hr, 16±8 hr and 60±7 hr for the first, second and third instars, respectively, completing a total of 96±6 hr. The mean pupal period lasted for 15.7±1.6 days. In longevity tables for the adults, life-expectancy for 50% of the colony submitted to 16°C was of 1.78 weeks for males and 2.42 for females. At 27°C a life-expectancy of 1.15 weeks for males and 0.78 week for females was recorded. The average life-spans for males and females at 16°C were 3.5±2.0 and 3.8±2.6 weeks, respectively, and 1.9±1.2 weeks for both sexes. At 27°C, the longevity recorded was of 2.1±1.3 weeks for males and 1.7±1.1 week for females.
