Three endemic vulture species Gyps bengalensis, Gyps indicus and Gyps tenuirostris are critically endangered following dramatic declines in South Asia resulting from exposure to diclofenac, a veterinary drug present in the livestock carcasses that they scavenge. Diclofenac is widely used globally and could present a risk to Gyps species from other regions. In this study, we test the toxicity of diclofenac to a Eurasian (Gyps fulvus) and an African (Gyps africanus) species, neither of which is threatened. A dose of 0.8 mg kg(-1) of diclofenac was highly toxic to both species, indicating that they are at least as sensitive to diclofenac as G. bengalensis, for which we estimate an LD50 of 0.1-0.2 mg kg(-1). We suggest that diclofenac is likely to be toxic to all eight Gyps species, and that G. africanus, which is phylogenetically close to G. bengalensis, would be a suitable surrogate for the safety testing of alternative drugs to diclofenac.

A highly sensitive and specific competitive ELISA on 96-microwell plates was developed for the analysis of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug diclofenac. Within the water cycle in Europe, this is one of the most frequently detected pharmaceutically active compounds. The LOD at a signal-tonoise ratio (S/N) of 3, and the IC 50, were found to be 6 ng/L and 60 ng/L respectively in tap water. In a comparative study using ELISA and GC-MS, diclofenac levels in wastewater from 21 sewage treatment plants were determined and a good correlation between these methods was found (ELISA vs. GCMS: r = 0.70, slope = 0,90, intercept = 0.37, n = 24). An average degradation rate of -25% can be calculated. Labscale-experiments on the elimination of diclofenac in continuous pilot sewage plants revealed a removal rate of only 5% over a period of 13 weeks. In a further study, the ELISA was applied to a number of extracts of various animal tissues from a range of species, and again a very good relationship between ELISA and LC-ESI/MS data sets was obtained (r = 0.90, p<0.0001; n = 117). The ELISA has proven to be a simple, rapid, reliable and affordable alternative to otherwise costly and advanced techniques for the detection of diclofenac in matrix diverse water samples and tissue extracts after only relatively simple sample preparation. © 2007 American Chemical Society.

El proyecto de 3R-Red de Repositorios Universitarios de Recursos Digitales es un trabajo de investigación orientado a desarrollar un prototipo de Repositorios Universitarios (RU) dentro de la UNAM. Parte de su trabajo se centra en la elaboración de políticas de descripción bibliográfica para aquellos objetos digitales que conforman los RU adscritos al proyecto. Actualmente esta labor ha consistido en el análisis y valoración de la Iniciativa de Metadatos Dublin Core (DCMI por sus siglas en inglés), en tanto que es un protocolo de transferencia de metadatos adecuado a los requerimientos de 3R. Sin embargo, dada la ambigüedad que DCMI presenta al momento de asentar información en algunos de sus elementos —tales como título, creador, editor y colaborador—, se previó la necesidad de utilizar esquemas alternos que coadyuven a la consignación y normalización de la información sobre los objetos digitales que conforman los RU. Por lo tanto, el presente trabajo aborda de manera concreta el problema de la descripción bibliográfica y de información en los quince elementos que componen el núcleo de Dublin Core, en paticular cuatro de ellos, al tiempo que propone la utilización de esquemas de codificación alternos para la descripción bibliográfica, como es el caso de las Reglas de Catalogación Angloamericanas 2a. edición (RCA2) y diferentes normas ISO, con el fin de obtener un cuerpo de metadatos que permita la recuperación y el intercambio de información entre los distintos Repositorios Universitarios que integran el proyecto de 3R.
