Visualizando o "eu": sobre a dimensão política das imagens cerebrais
Authors: Pimentel Cesar Pessoa , Vaz Paulo
Published: May 2019

As neurociências e as imagens cerebrais têm crescente prestígio social. O propósito do presente artigo é enviar as tecnologias contemporâneas de visualização do cérebro a uma dimensão política, investigando com base nos conceitos foucaultianos os regimes de visibilidade aos quais o corpo é submetido. A análise se faz por comparação histórica. Inicialmente, abordamos a experiência da doença calcada na medicina clínica para, em seguida, chegar à aliança entre meios de comunicação e neurociências que caracteriza uma das faces do cuidado com o corpo nas sociedades atuais. Argumenta-se que o processo cada vez mais intenso de visualização do corpo não pode ser reduzido ao refinamento dos aparatos tecnológicos, ocorrendo significativas transformações na experiência do adoecimento, experiência esta acompanhada pela fluidificação dos limites entre normalidade e anormalidade.
Significações do trabalho nas narrativas do eu: estratégias comunicacionais da marca Nextel na campanha “Bem-vindo ao Clube”
Authors: Casaqui Vander
Published: May 2019

A campanha publicitária da marca de serviços telefônicos Nextel é analisada sob a ótica das teorias do trabalho e do consumo. Discutimos os significados das narrativas construídas pelos sujeitos que protagonizam os filmes, ao apresentarem suas trajetórias erráticas de vida, em relação às expectativas do outro, como traços identitários associados ao universo simbólico de Nextel. Nessas narrativas, o trabalho é destaque, como esfera de desafio e de afirmação, de identificação e de estranhamento, de perspectivas de fracasso e de conquista do sucesso. A reflexão sobre a espetacularização e a estetização da intimidade, por meio da midiatização das narrativas do eu, serve como base para a compreensão do papel da atividade produtiva na vinculação de sujeitos em comunidades imaginadas pela linguagem publicitária.
Como consumir – com prazer estético - os testemunhos do Holocausto: uma avaliação crítica sobre a Fundação Survivors of the Shoah
Authors: Kurtz Adriana Schryver
Published: May 2019

O presente artigo reflete acerca do estatuto do testemunho do Holocausto judeu no âmbito de uma cultura de consumo, tendo como objeto de análise o projeto original de Steven Spielberg, Survivors of the Shoah, Visual History Fundation, hoje sob a guarda da Universidade da Califórnia do Sul, devidamente rebatizado de USC Shoah Fundation Institute for Visual History and Education. Defenderemos a tese de que mesmo o testemunho e a memória do Terror podem ser estetizados e absorvidos pelo mercado de bens culturais, em um formato saneado e consolador, passível de ser consumido por um público potencialmente massivo. Em que pesem as boas intenções – se é que existem –, Steven Spielberg configura-se como uma discutível “autoridade” – midiática – acerca do Holocausto, conformando o imaginário ocidental sobre a memória do genocídio com sua Fundação e o sucesso anterior do filme A lista de Schindler (1993).Palavras-Chave

O agenda-setting no Brasil: contradições entre o sucesso e os limites epistemológicos
Authors: Maia Kênia Beatriz Ferreira , Agnez Luciane Fassarella
Published: May 2019

Com a efervescência dos estudos em jornalismo, as constantes críticas e os sucessivos esforços de se delimitar epistemológica e metodologicamente a área, o presente artigo coloca em discussão os trabalhos sobre o agenda-setting, ou do agendamento da mídia, questionando o sucesso que a abordagem alcançou nacionalmente. A partir de uma análise empírica, com base em papers apresentados nos principais fóruns das ciências da comunicação no Brasil, examinamos como essa tradição é reapropriada pelos pesquisadores brasileiros, quais as metodologias usadas e se há acúmulo de conhecimento.
A reconfiguração da indústria da música
Authors: Kischinhevsky Marcelo , Herschmann Micael
Published: May 2019

O presente trabalho busca mapear as principais transformações nos negócios musicais – fonográficos e da música ao vivo – ocorridas ao longo da última década, com a prevalência das Novas Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação e as tentativas de reposicionamento da antiga indústria fonográfica. Em contraponto à profusão de sistemas de compartilhamento de arquivos digitais de áudio via internet, sem custo para o usuário, emergem novos canais de vendas, entre os quais se destacam a telefonia móvel, os jogos eletrônicos e as mídias sociais de base radiofônica. Discutiremos como se redesenham as relações entre companhias musicais e consumidores, a partir destas inovadoras estratégias de visibilidade adotadas por empresários, produtores e artistas – estratégias que privilegiam o acesso à música, num mercado sob pressão devido à commoditização do fonograma e no qual se revalorizam as apresentações ao vivo.
A participação do público no webjornalismo
Authors: De Quadros Claudia Irene
Published: May 2019

A participação do público no jornalismo realizado na rede mundial de computadores e o impacto causado na mídia tradicional são motivos desse artigo. Há dez anos o jornalismo digital prometia um diário na web cada vez mais interativo. Hoje a interatividade ainda não alcançou a sua plenitude no webjornalismo, mas entre as experiências já realizadas no ciberespaço é possível destacar algumas que provocaram transformações em todos os meios de comunicação, inclusive nos diários digitais. Aqui não se pretende analisar formas de navegação no jornalismo digital nesta última década, mas repercutir práticas interativas que propiciaram tais mudanças. Entre as mais recentes, está o blog, que despertou a atenção do internauta por sua informalidade e pelo livre fluxo de informação, além de inspirar outras formas de um jornalismo mais participativo. No open source journalism, por exemplo, o usuário também pode escrever uma notícia. Assim como em um software de fonte aberta, onde é possível acrescentar, alterar ou corrigir um dado, o público tem um certo domínio sobre a informação jornalística.

Conversação, telejornalismo, democracia e a retórica da participação do público
Authors: Silva Fernanda Mauricio
Published: May 2019

O presente artigo tem como objetivo discutir os modos de envolvimento dos telespectadores em programas televisivos que se sustentam no ideal da promoção de um debate público, a fim de problematizar o papel democrático que o telejornalismo pretende cumprir. Discute-se a centralidade da conversação como prática para formação e expressão da vontade pública nas perspectivas republicanas e deliberacionistas da democracia. Procura-se demonstrar, a partir da contribuição dos cultural studies, que o telejornalismo ainda se apresenta de maneira autoritária e excludente com relação à inserção do público nas conversas postas em cena.

Deslizes morais na cena midiática: reprodução da intolerância ou oportunidade para novas gramáticas morais?
Authors: Garcêz Regiane Lucas , Cal Danila Gentil Rodriguez
Published: May 2019

Discute-se de que forma deslizes morais veiculados nos media reforçam preconceitos ou desvelam questões pouco tematizadas na esfera pública. Qual o papel desses deslizes morais na ampliação das relações de reconhecimento e na

transformação das gramáticas morais que regem a sociedade? A partir de uma aproximação entre as teorias do reconhecimento e da deliberação, analisamos a repercussão, na internet, de dois artigos: um sobre o movimento gay, de J. R. Guzzo, publicado na revista Veja, e outro sobre os Guarani Kaiowá, publicado por Walter Navarro na versão on-line do jornal O Tempo. A análise levou em conta: a) o descortinamento de consensos tácitos; b) a possibilidade de discussão acerca de valores

com vistas à ampliação de gramáticas morais.

Authors: Moutinho de Oliveira Sofia Luisa , Massarani Luisa , Amorim Luis Henrique
Published: May 2019

Este artigo analisa a influência do sistema de embargo praticado por periódicos científicos sobre a cobertura de ciência dos jornais diários brasileiros O Globo e Folha de S. Paulo. Esse sistema permite que jornalistas recebam informações privilegiadas sobre artigos científicos ainda não publicados com a expectativa de que preparem melhor sua cobertura. Nesse estudo, realizamos uma análise quantitativa e qualitativa de notícias produzidas com base no sistema de embargo dos periódicos Science e Nature publicadas nas seções de ciência dos referidos jornais durante cinco meses de 2012. Em contraposição ao seu objetivo declarado, nossos resultados sugerem que este sistema não garante uma cobertura aprofundada da ciência, mas, sim, uma cobertura altamente influenciada pelos periódicos, com tom consensual, sem presença de controvérsias, e com baixa pluralidade de vozes.

The Syntax of Arabic Vocatives
Authors: Al-Bataineh Hussein
Published: May 2019

This paper examines the syntactic structure of Arabic vocatives, focusing on Case-marking of vocatives. The assignment of accusative and nominative Case can be accounted for in the light of Hill (2017) and Larson (2014)’s proposals. Hill (2017) provides the basic structure of the vocative phrase, and Larson (2014) proposes the internal structure of DP. The combination of these proposals explains the derivation of Arabic vocatives and their Case alternation. This paper argues that indefinite vocatives are assigned accusative Case only if they are merged with an overt D -n, otherwise a nominative Case surfaces on the noun by default. Proper names have the same analysis since the presence of the indefinite article-n is a prerequisite for accusative Case assignment. Concerning vocatives as heads of Construct States, N-to-D movement takes place in order to assign [+def] feature to D and is assigned accusative Case once D raises to the light d. Regarding vocatives in demonstrative phrases, D-to-d movement is blocked because of the intervening constituent Dem, indicating that this operation is subject to the adjacency condition. The same analysis is applicable to definite vocatives occurring with the particle ʡayyuha.

RECONCILIATION (Matt 5:21-26): INEVITABLE CONDITION FOR AUTHENTIC WORSHIP OF GOD.
Authors: Ezeogamba Anthony Ikechukwu
Published: May 2019

Remorse, forgiveness and reconciliation are three most inevitable and essential steps to peace. There can be no peace without remorse, forgiveness and reconciliation. The offender must be remorseful so as to elicit forgiveness in the offended and for reconciliation to exist between them. An offender must not pretend as if nothing happened. He must make the offended to drop his anger and release him, hence, peace and ability to make sacrifices that could be acceptable to God. Jesus did not come to abolish the Law or the Prophets, instead, he came to fulfill them (Matt 5:17). What Jesus actually meant by this fulfillment is the observance of the Spirit of the Law and not just the mere observance of the letters of the Law. One of the Laws that makes up the Decalogue says, "you shall not kill!" (Matt 5:21). Jesus expounded this Law to mean more than killing somebody physically. It involves also anything that might lead to some one's death either directly or indirectly. Such indirect killings include angry behaviour, and indeed any form of altercation. To emphasize this point he restrained his followers from worships/sacrifices when they are not at peace with their neighbours (Matt 5:21-26). The purpose of this article is to establish that sacrifices and offerings or worships done without reconciliation is hypocritical and God abhors such. The implication is that many of our worships are not acceptable to God because of lack of reconciliation or harmony between worshippers. The method to employ here is Library research which includes exegesis of Matt 5:21-26 from which we shall draw inference. This article argues that if the content of Matt 5:21-26 is properly understood and practiced by present day Christians in the world ; reconciliation and by implication peace would be easily achieved in the whole world. Then, majority of our sacrifices will be validly and adequately made through our conscious efforts. This article is relevant to every member of every Christian community because many of the present day Christians are not in harmony with one another yet they make sacrifices to God every Sunday and indeed every day. This is to the extent that majority of worshippers harbour anger for a very long time yet they make sacrifices (Eph 4:26-27). Hence majority will make amend .
Problem solvers adjust cognitive offloading based on performance goals
Authors: Weis Patrick P. , Wiese Eva
Published: May 2019

When incorporating the environment into mental processing (cf., cognitive offloading), one creates novel cognitive strategies that have the potential to improve task performance. Improved performance can, for example, mean faster problem solving, more accurate solutions, or even higher grades at university . Although cognitive offloading has frequently been associated with improved performance, it is yet unclear how flexible problem solvers are at matching their offloading habits with their current performance goals (can people improve goal-related instead of generic performance, e.g., when being in a hurry and aiming for a “quick and dirty” solution?). Here, we asked participants to solve a cognitive task, provided them with different goals – maximizing speed (SPD) or accuracy (ACC), respectively – and measured how frequently (Experiment 1) and how proficiently (Experiment 2) they made use of a novel external resource to support their cognitive processing. Experiment 1 showed that offloading behavior varied with goals: participants offloaded less in the SPD than in the ACC condition. Experiment 2 showed that this differential offloading behavior was associated with high goal-related performance: fast answers in the SPD, accurate answers in the ACC condition. Simultaneously, goal-unrelated performance was sacrificed: inaccurate answers in the SPD, slow answers in the ACC condition. The findings support the notion of humans as canny offloaders who are able to successfully incorporate their environment in pursuit of their current cognitive goals. Future efforts should be focused on the finding’s generalizability, e.g. to settings without feedback or with high mental workload.
Les fresques de Kaftoun au Liban : la cohabitation des deux traditions byzantine et orientale
Authors: Hélou Nada
Published: May 2019

Des peintures murales de qualité exceptionnelles ont été découvertes récemment (entre 2003 et 2007) dans l'église Saint-Serges-et-Bacchus de Kaftoun dans le Liban Nord. L'église, dédiée aux saints Serge et Bacchus, est de structure basilicale (Fig. I). Six piliers massifs divisent l'espace intérieur, trois de chaque côté. Mais les quatre piliers des extrémités est et ouest sont engagés dans les murs de telle sorte que les deux piliers centraux sont libres. De ce fait, l'intérieur est divisé en deux travées seulement. Le vaisseau central, dépourvu de l'étage de fenêtres (le clerestorium) dans sa partie supérieure, est couvert d'une voûte en berceau légèrement brisée et se termine par une abside semi-circulaire saillante à l'extérieur. La nef latérale nord, ayant été détruite et emmurée à une époque antérieure, a été dernièrement reconstruite selon le modèle de la nef sud2 (Fig. 2). Celle-ci, plus basse que la nef centrale est couverte de deux voûtes d'arêtes et se termine du côté est par un mur droit percé d'une niche. Un porche voûté en berceau et probablement plus tardif que l'église précède la partie centrale de l'entrée (Nordiguian et Voisin 1999 : 166). Le nombre d'ouvertures est très réduit • la baie en meurtrière percée dans l'abside, les deux petites ouvertures dans la partie inférieure de la voûte et l'oculus flanqué de deux fenestrons sur le mur ouest et qui rappelle le modèle des églises croisées (Nordiguian et Voisin 1999 : 217). Une semi-obscurité baigne l'intérieur.

Authors: Pollok-Waksmańska Wioletta , Słowiaczek Krystyna , Wijas Danuta
Published: May 2019

Introduction: Salmonella is a serious cause of gastroenteritis in children. Prevention through proper hygiene to minimize potential exposure is a key factor decreasing the number of morbidity. The aim of this study was the analysis of Salmonellosis incidence rate among children hospitalized in Pediatric Hospital in Bielsko-Biała, Poland, in the years 2014-2015 having regard to Salmonella’s serotype, symptoms at admission to hospital and changes of body weight during hospital stay.
Methods: The study was conducted on 79 children with Salmonellosis treated in years 2014-2015 in Pediatric Hospital in Bielsko-Biała, Poland. It was based on retrospective analysis of data from children’s medical history.
Results: In all age groups the most common serotype was Salmonella Entertidis. Analysis of children’s clinical symptoms at admission to hospital showed that all children, both male and female, had abdominal pains before defecation. The major symptoms included also diarrhea with blood and fever. Among half of observed group emesis were observed. The analysis of body weight at the hospital admission and discharge demonstrated that in majority of children the body weight increased during their stay in the hospital – the weight gain occurred in 68,8% of male and in 48,4% of female children.
Conclusions: The cases of Salmonella appeared comparatively often in children at the age of 0-2 years old and 3-5 years old. The most commonly isolated serotype of Salmonella was Salmonella Entertidis. In all age groups the most common symptoms were abdominal pain before defecation and diarrhea with blood. Due to high diarrhea prevalence it is advisable to introduce the education directed both to children and parents.
Effect of colloidal silver and copper nanoparticles on generation of radical oxygen species (ROS) in human neutrophils
Authors: Kosecka-Strojek Maja , Kaszycki Paweł , Regdos Kinga , Guzik Krzysztof , Ropek Dariusz , Międzobrodzki Jacek
Published: May 2019

Introduction: Silver and copper nanoparticles (AgNPs, CuNPs) applied as hydronanocolloids are known to produce strong antibacterial and antifungal activities. They are extensively used in a number of applications including pharmacy, medicine and cosmetology (especially for surface-applied treatment of skin lesions) as well as agriculture, industry (paint, construction, etc.) and home or office (mainly disinfection applications). Moreover, there is a promising perspective of an intra-systemic NP use, especially to optimize targeted drug delivery. For the above reasons NPs cause risk of penetrating human body and exerting toxic effects and/or stress reactions. This issue has inspired the authors to launch studies on the influence of colloidal AgNPs and CuNPs on physiological potential of neutrophils, blood-cells acting as the first line of immunological defense.
Methods: Physiological activity of neutrophils was evaluated by measuring their ability to generate oxygen radicals (radical oxygen species, ROS) due to the respiratory (oxidative) burst mechanism. Human, peripheral blood-isolated neutrophils were stimulated with a standard activating agent (polystyrene latex particles) to develop high physiological potential revealed by enhanced ability to produce oxygen radicals. The cells were treated with silver and copper hydronanocolloids (each applied at concentrations ranging from 0.4 to 50 mg/kg) alternatively: in the absence and presence of the mentioned activator. The level of generated ROS upon oxidative burst was monitored chemiluminometrically.
Results: The tested Ag and Cu-nanocolloids were not toxic against neutrophils although they hampered mitochondrial dehydrogenase activities when applied at higher levels. At lower concentrations they tended to stimulate ROS generation; however the treatment did not launch the oxidative burst. In the case of the latex-stimulated neutrophils, both types of nanoparticles in all experimental variants did not influence the levels of produced ROS.
Conclusions: The obtained results indicate that the exposure of human neutrophils to colloidal AgNPs and CuNPs does not lead to an enhanced ROS generation, which may enable direct intra-blood application of the tested nanostructures, provided further necessary toxicological studies are carried out.
Narasi Tragis Dalam Manga : Sebuah Kajian Estetika Aristotelian Terhadap Komik 5 Centimeters per Second

Published: May 2019

Comics, or in Indonesian, are often referred to as cergam (cerita bergambar), later they have found urgency in the science of art and literature as sequential art, whose existence can be appreciated both in art and literature. This study will highlight literary aspects or ideoplastic aspects of 5 Centimeters per Second, especially in flow and character . The purpose of this study is to reveal or explain how the tragedy was revealed in 5 Centimeters per Second. In achieving these objectives, the theorization in this study was done deductively to answer the research questions. The theory used to explain the problem is the concept of Aristoteles's Tragedy, which relates to his work Poetics as a work of classical Greek philosophy. With an explanation of the flow and the order of comics that have advantages in two respects (visual and literary technical achievements), the results of this study are expected to be a consideration in making comics. The results of this study can be concluded that the manga is present by imitating objects, events, actions, and character in a moral category that is better than humans or the world in general. In addition, in this manga story, almost all the characters (or 'actors' in Aristoteles's terminology) are aware of how to act, they really know but don't do it, eventually sinking into a puddle of suffering. According to Aristoteles, a tragic story like this is the worst.

The weight and shape of the gable and multi-span frames (mono and two-span pitched roof) with tapered members, as a familiar group of the pitched roof frames, are highly dependent on the properties of the member cross-section. In this work a quantum inspired evolutionary algorithms, so-called Quantum evolutionary algorithm (QEA) [1], are utilized for optimal design of one gable frame and a multi-span frame in five alternatives with tapered members. In order to optimize the frames, the design is performed using the AISC speciﬁcations for stress, displacement and stability constraints. The design constraints and weight of the gable and multi-span frames are computed from the cross-section of members. These optimum weights are obtained using aforementioned optimization algorithm considering the cross-section of members and design constraints as optimization variables and constraints, respectively. A comparative study of the QEA and some recently developed methods from literature is also performed to illustrate the performance of the utilized optimization algorithm and its featuring. Furthermore, optimal design of a multi-span frame is compared with the solution of other methods including the same conditions and constraints. This study indicates the power of QEA in exploring and exploitation due the search space with using Q-gate and binary code for individual representation and updating. Binary code helps the QEA to find optimal solution even with minimum number of Q-bit individuals. High speed of this method is because of such a feature.

Authors: Kos Marjanca , Jerman Janez
Published: May 2019

Learning through gardening is known to be an educational strategy in which a garden is used as a teaching tool. Systemic reviews of the impact of school gardening on academic performance and dietary habits foreground the need for additional quantitative studies that would use strong experimental designs. The aim of the present research was to establish the impact of school gardening on children’s knowledge of and attitude to the consumption of garden vegetables. A quasi-experiment was conducted including one control and one experimental group, with each group consisting of 15 children aged 6–7 years. The children’s prior knowledge and attitude toward the consumption of garden vegetables was identified through individual interviews. Participants in the experimental group then carried out their activities in a school garden that was built in co-operation with an organic farm located in close vicinity of the school. Following these activities, interviews were repeated in both groups to establish any newly acquired knowledge of and changes in the children’s attitude to garden vegetables. The results revealed that the children in both groups had poor general knowledge about garden vegetables at the beginning of the experiment. After their work in the garden was concluded, the knowledge of garden vegetables in the experimental group of children improved to a statistically significant degree. The children’s attitude to consuming garden vegetables also became more positive than before they engaged in the gardening activities. The results of this research indicated that school gardening activities improved academic outcomes and the children’s attitude to the consumption of vegetables. Therefore, the research suggests that gardening should be considered a vital part of school education.

Resumo: A Grounded theory possibilita a construção de uma teoria substantiva, abstraindo dados de casos a conceitos, convertendo-os num conjunto de afirmações que elucidam os acontecimentos. Este artigo objetiva descrever a elaboração de modelo teórico sobre o processo de cuidado à pessoa com tuberculose a partir dos pressupostos metodológicos da Grounded theory, segundo Anselm Strauss e Juliet Corbin. O número de participantes deu-se pela amostragem e saturação teórica, originando quatro grupos amostrais, por meio de questionamentos e análise comparativa dos dados. A coleta e análise ocorreram simultaneamente. Na codificação, teve-se: codificação aberta; codificação axial, regrupando conceitos em torno de assunto comum, originou-se as categorias e subcategorias; e com o refinamento e integração das categorias, chegou-se à codificação seletiva, e construção do modelo teórico. O modelo teórico elaborado constitui uma representação do fenômeno “cuidando da pessoa com tuberculose na atenção básica de saúde”. Configuram-se, neste modelo, as categorias referentes às condições causais, às interventoras, às contextuais, às ações/interações e às consequências deste fenômeno.Palavras-chave: Grounded theory; Pesquisa Qualitativa; Modelos de Enfermagem; Tuberculose. Construction of a theoretical model on taking care of tuberculosis in the perspective of Grounded TheoryAbstract: Grounded theory enables the construction of a substantive theory, abstracting data from cases to concepts, converting them into a set of statements that elucidate events.

Ambiguity, Ideology, and Doctrine Propagation in Qur'an Translation
Authors: Mustafa Burçin K.
Published: May 2019

The inability of translators to convey all aspects of the source text is often cited as an inherent flaw of the translation process. For example, with regard to Qur'an translation, the inability of the translator to transfer the linguistic ambiguity inherent in some specific verses, or to find equivalent target-language words for Qur'anic terms, is often seen as a drawback of translation. This is routinely referred to as ‘translation loss’ and is framed in a negative light, on the basis that facets of the source text are lost in translation. However, this article will argue that this limitation of translation can actually provide an advantage for those propagating a particular doctrine. In this sense, ambiguous terms can be exploited to impose on the reader of the target text a singular interpretation derived from a specific doctrine. To demonstrate this notion a number of examples from various English-language Qur'an translations will be presented, such as a variety of translations of khātama'l-nabiyyīn (Q. 33:40) and istawā (Q. 2:29 and Q. 20:5). The discussion will then explore translations of two Qur'anic phrases which have significance to contemporary discourses on Islam, lā taghlū fī dīnikum in Q. 4:171, and wa'ḍribūhunna in Q. 4:34.
Numerical Prediction of Microbubble Attachment in Biological Flows

Published: May 2019

Biofilm infections pose a major threat to human health and are difficult to detect. Microbubbles provide an effective and inexpensive method of detection for biofilm-based infections and other diseases such as cancer. The approach studied here examines the potential of targeted microbubbles, with specific antibodies covalently linked to their surfaces for use as ultrasound contrast agents and drug delivery vehicle. This work presents a novel numerical model for estimating the forces on microbubble conjugates in the vascular system. A full computational fluid dynamics simulation of biological fluid flow and the resulting forces on attached microbubbles is presented as well as comparisons with simplified analytical models. Both the computational and analytical predictions are compared with experimental measurements from Takalkar et al. and Schmidt et al., and these comparisons indicate stable microbubble attachment can be anticipated when the total hydrodynamic force on the microbubble is less than 100 pN. Through the examination of typical biological flows, microbubble attachment can be expected up to an average fluid velocity of 0.025 cm/s near the microbubble (i.e., a particle Reynolds number on the order of .001). The Stokes drag law was shown to predict the drag force (the dominant force) on the microbubble within an order of magnitude of the force predicted by the numerical model. Finally, it was found that the lift force on a microbubble was small relative to the drag force, and that the Saffman equation prediction differed from the numerical model by more than an order of magnitude for the biological flows examined.

The Effect of Umbellularia californica Essential Oil on Blood Vessel Diameter in Frogs

Published: May 2019

Plant essential oils contain many chemicals that are physiologically active in vertebrates. Terpenoids, which represent the largest category of these compounds, have been shown to lower blood pressure by reducing cardiac output and causing vasodilation. Most studies on the vasoactivity of terpenoids have been done on aortic rings and mesenteric artery preparations, and little is known about their effects on microvasculature. We applied Umbellularia californica essential oil, which contains several different terpenoids, to the cutaneous microvasculature of frogs and measured changes in blood vessel diameter. The U. californica oil caused a sustained, reversible vasoconstriction of these blood vessels, whereas no significant change in diameter was caused by medical grade sesame oil, which served as our control. The vasoconstriction we observed was therefore induced by compounds in the U. californica oil, many of which have previously been shown to cause vasodilation in arteries. Our results suggest that the vasoactive effects of terpenoids may differ across blood vessel types, and are more variable than previously thought.
