Published: January 2022

The effective provision of basic education in Rwanda increases the competition level among graduates which promotionally improves the socio-economic transformation of communities. The purpose of this study therefore was to establish the effect of early childhood education on socio-economic transformation of communities in Nyamasheke district in Rwanda. The target population was 368 respondents that provided the sample size of 192 got using Yamane formula. Interview guide and questionnaire were used as data collection instruments. Correlation research design was also employed. The study findings revealed there is 31% of accessibility of ECE able to affect the level of socio-economic transformation of communities as indicated by the R square = .310 and the remaining 69% of socio-economic transformation of communities can be affected by other factors. However, it was found that, there is a statistically significant moderate relationship between accessibility ECE and socio-economic transformation of communities (P=.000 and r = .555). The study recommended the ministry of education which represents the government in the sector of Education should provide the adequate infrastructures of ECE schools in Nyamasheke district to improve and make easy accessibility of ECE in the area thus also increase the literacy level. The non-governmental organizations should invest more in ECE of Nyamasheke district in order to develop youth who are competent and able to compete at the labour market.

Published: January 2022

Background: Despite the wide application of Xanthan gum, its commercial production remains a global challenge. In recent years, considerable research has been carried out using agro-industrial wastes, which are renewable and abundantly available to produce value-added products. The present study was set out for molecular identification of Xanthomonas campestris from leaves of four different plants with indications of dark rot spots and evaluation of their xanthan gum production capacity. Methods: Twenty-five (25) samples of leaves from four different plants with indications of dark rot spots were collected from the study area and isolated for Xanthomonas campestris following standard microbiological methods. Cultural, morphological and biochemical tests were conducted to confirm the organism. Results: The results revealed that of the total 100 samples taken, 6 leaves (24%) were infected with Xanthomonas species in mint, 3(12%) were infected in mango, 1(4%) were infected in rice and 2(8%) were infected in pepper. Further molecular identification of the isolates was carried out to reveal Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria strain 85-10 and Xanthomonas perforans strain 91-118. These were further used for the production of xanthan gum using sugar cane molasses substrates extracted from sugar cane, which was used as fermentation medium for the production. Isolates from plants varying ability in Xanthan gum production, with the mint plant having the highest Xanthan gum production (0.10 ± 0.02 to 0.9 ± 0.00 g/l). Conclusion: The present study confirmed the high xanthan gum production capacity of Xanthomonas campestris from dark rot spots containing mint leaves and should be considered during local and industrial production of the xanthan gum

Acetyl salicylic acid (ASA) is widely used globally to treat pain, rheumatic fever and inflammation since more than a century. It is also a prototypical molecule categorized as a platelet aggregation inhibitor, that could be widely used to reduce the risk of arterial and venous thrombosis in long term therapy. Various ASA formulations are available in the market and estimation of their quantity and efficacy is of utmost importance since it is largely being produced by many pharmaceutical companies all over the world. Literature is supported with many analytical methods using UV-visible spectrophotometer, liquid chromatography, liquid chromatography integrated with mass spectrometer (LC-MS), UHPLCMS/MS, Gas chromatography, electrochemical and titrimetric methods. In this study, an Attenuated total Reflectance Fourier transform Infrared Spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) method was developed for the estimation of ASA in tablets and validated as per ICH guidelines. The calibration curve was constructed on peak height location at a specific wavenumber of 1750 cm-1 (Strong c=O stretching vibration of ASA) in the concentration range from 1-100 (%w/w) with a correlation coefficient of 1.000. the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were 0.94 (%w/w) and 0.31 (%w/w), respectively. the method was found to be precise over a range of 10- 100%, with intra-day and inter-day precision values were estimated as 0.94 and 8.26 respectively. The percentage of mean recovery was estimated at 103.04 ±2.58 with margin of error (± 2.50%) at 95% confidence interval. This new method was used for the quantification of ASA in tablets and percentage of labeled amount was found within the range of 103.04 ±2.58. No significant interference was observed by excipients in the tablet formulation during the spectral analysis.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive, neurodegenerative disease which is caused mainly due to accumulation of an aberrant protein known as β-amyloid in the form of senile plaques. However, over the past few years, network biology studies have indicated that classical “one drug-one target” hypothesis may not work in diseases such as AD where the biochemical disease mechanisms are intricately interconnected. therefore, multifunctional molecules which can modulate several targets could be the key towards finding the therapeutics for this debilitating disorder. Keeping this in mind, several pyrazoline containing molecules with promising Aβ aggregation inhibition potential were explored further against key targets involved in AD, such as cholinesterases, oxidative stress and advanced glycation end products (AGe). Some potential multifunctional molecules were identified as a result of this work.

Multi-dose dry powder inhaler (M-DPI) is a unique inhaler device from Teva Pharmaceutical developed for treatment of chronic respiratory diseases. It is a metered-dose dry powder inhaler system designed to appear as a typical pressurized metered-dose inhaler, but its internal geometry is very unique. The formulation of the inhaled corticosteroid and long-acting β2 agonist in M-DPI has been approved for use in the United States (US) [RespiClick®] and European Union (EU) [Spiromax®] as a treatment for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This M-DPI is easy to handle and does not need coordination between dose actuation and inhalation. The unique design of M-DPI ensures patients receive consistent doses of the drug with each actuation. The present article is a comprehensive account of the M-DPI with special emphasis on its dose metering system, deagglomeration mechanism and clinical outcomes.

Glucocorticoids (GCs) treatment has a profound effect on bone turnover and the mechanism is complex and not elucidated completely. One of the actions on bone explained by many studies is its effect on serum osteocalcin levels. To investigate changes in the osteocalcin levels among patients who are on GCs and to correlate these levels with various doses of different GCs, a prospective observational study on 88 subjects who were on GC therapy was undertaken. Mean age of subjects was 42.29 ±13.86 years, with a marginal female preponderance (58%). Median dose of glucocorticoids was 1mg/kg (0.89, 2.60). Median baseline serum osteocalcin concentration was 4.4ng/ml (2.2, 9.0), which reduced significantly after starting GC therapy to 2.2ng/ml (1.01, 4.74) (p value=0.009). The median dose of prednisolone was 0.9 (0.72, 0.90) and of methylprednisolone 2.6 (2.1, 3.4) mg/kg. The serum osteocalcin level was reduced significantly (p<0.01), irrespective of GCs. We found that osteocalcin levels were negatively correlated with the dose of prednisolone (r= -0.06, p=0.6) and methylprednisolone(r=-0.11 p=0.53). Further, a weak negative correlation was seen in patients taking less than 1mg/kg and more than 1 mg/kg (r=-0.21 p value=0.32 and r=-0.352 p value-0.005), showing greater reduction in patients on higher doses. Osteocalcin reduction is solely dependent on dose of glucocorticoids, not on type of glucocorticoids. This may have important clinical implications and may help to reduce bone related side effects.
O cerco rompido. (Leitura de O círculo, de Alina Paim)
Authors: Dal Farra Maria Lúcia
Published: January 2022

The text aims to draw attention to a novel that has gone completely unnoticed by criticism, relegated to oblivion. Even though its author, a Northeastern woman, was known at that time for another aspect of her work, the more political one, the novel, published in 1965, has not yet received the reading worthy of what it raises. This may be explained by the engendering of the questions posed, both concerning the feminine condition, and the narrative and discursive relationships. I try, then, to underline the labyrinthine exploration of time, semantic games, metaphorical inflections, improprieties, metonymic employment, etc., which could have given it the prominent place of a vanguard narrative.
Dois «sonhadores práticos» no campo de reformas sociais de medicina: Tomás Judym e José Tomás de Sousa Martins
Authors: Kalewska Anna
Published: January 2022

After Romanticism, the mythical-legendary past was questioned by Positivist Science and the spirit of social reforms, gaining new literary contours in patriotically and politically committed works that were sensitive to the problems of society. The work of Stefan Żeromski (1864-1925), who in the first decades of the twentieth century was considered the greatest Polish novelist, caused the purely aesthetic function of Literature to lose ground, instigating the emotional side and social consciousness of its readers, their compassion and willingness to act. The protagonist of the novel Ludzie bezdomni (1900) (Homeless Men), Doctor Tomás (Tomasz) Judym, is a self-made man who, assuming responsibility for the misery of the masses of the proletariat (first in Paris, then in Warsaw, in Cisy and Silesia), renounces his own happiness and the love of Joaninha, and dedicates his life as a doctor to the poor and to the fight against social injustice. The nonconformity and commitment of Dr. Judym as the first «practical dreamer» of the social cause became proverbial in Polish, characterizing the romantic attitude free of financial gain in the time of capitalism’s unbridled progress. José Tomás de Sousa Martins (1843-1897) was a real «practical dreamer», an unparalleled figure in Portuguese Science, a physician and professor at the Medical-Surgical School of Lisbon, who fought tuberculosis free of charge. In 1910, Jaime Cortesão outlined the profile of Sousa Martins, emphasizing that in Philosophy he was positivist, materialist and determinist-fatalist, going far beyond the scientific superstition that took those who prized Science beyond the limits of reasonable, beyond the limit of mankind. In fact, Sousa Martins was a committed pasteurian and shared the scientific ideas of the French master. For Sousa Martins, Pasteur was one of the saints to be worshiped in the vast religion of Science. Dr. Tomás Judym and Sousa Martins entered, respectively, in Polish Literature and in the History of Public Health in Portugal as «lay saints», paradigmatic figures of action in the field of social reforms, physicians at the service of Man, who did not see in religion the way to their salvation, but rather in Science. And so the figures of the two «practical dreamers» become even more fascinating and recommendable to the presentation of the debate over the spirit of reforms and the (re)construction of modernity.

COPROLITES FROM CALVERT CLIFFS: MIOCENE FECAL PELLETS AND BURROWED CROCODILIAN DROPPINGS FROM THE CHESAPEAKE GROUP OF MARYLAND, U.S.A.
Authors: GODFREY STEPHEN J. , COLLARETA ALBERTO , NANCE JOHN R.
Published: January 2022

New finds of remarkable coprolites (fossilized feces) are here reported from the famous Miocene marine sediments of the Chesapeake Group exposed along Calvert Cliffs (Maryland, U.S.A.).  Although vertebrate coprolites have been described from these deposits, here we provide the first description of tiny invertebrate fecal pellets. Thus far, these fecal pellets have only been found in the upper Miocene (Tortonian) St. Marys Formation. The micro-coprolites represent the coprulid ichnospecies Coprulus oblongus. The fecal pellets are found in small clusters or strings of dozens to masses of many hundreds. Pellets range in size from approximately 0.4 – 2.0 mm wide by 1.0 – 5.0 mm long, and range in color from gray to brownish black. Their length/diameter ratio is always very nearly 2. These coprulids have been found in a variety of Miocene fossils/concretions including a uranoscopid neurocranium, naticid gastropod, bivalve shells, barnacle tests, and in pellet-backfilled sinuous burrows through sediment. Because the fecal pellets are often found in tiny spaces or spaces thought to be inaccessible to shelled invertebrates, the coprulids are attributed to small and soft-bodied polychaetes or other annelids. Some coprolites attributed to crocodilians from the lower-middle Miocene Calvert Formation were tunneled into, presumably the result of coprophagy, by some unknown kind of organism(s). These compound trace fossils are in the form of burrows that excavate the coprolites, the sides of which are sculptured by scratch/gouge marks.

A study was conducted to understand the plant diversity along an altitudinal gradient with elevations varying from 2750 to 5000m above msl in Lippa – Asrang valley falling in cold desert area of Pooh sub division of district Kinnaur, Himachal Pradesh during 2007. The number of tree species at 2750-3200m and 3200-3650m elevations were 10 and 8 with the dominance of Cedrus deodara and Pinus wallichian respectively. The number of shrub species were 19, 17, 7 and 3 in the elevations of 2750-3200m, 3200-3650m, 3650-4100m and 4100-4550m respectively. Juniperus communis taking shape of the dominant shrub at 2750-3200 m, 3200-3650 m and 3650-4100m elevations. Rhododendron anthopogon was the dominant shrub at 4100-4550m elevation range. The number of herb species were 76, 73, 46, 39 and 33 at 2750-3200m, 3200-3650m, 3650-4100m, 4100-4550m and 4550-5000m elevational ranges respectively. On the basis of importance value index (IVI), Artemisia brevifolia, Heracleum candicans, Thymus linearis, Bergenia stracheyi and Bistorta affinis were the dominant herbs dotting different elevational ranges and distribution pattern of plant species was mostly contiguous in all the altitudes. Index of diversity for herb species in different elevational ranges was 3.89, 3.82, 3.47, 3.21 and 2.95. Out of 78 medicinal plant species as recorded from the area, 20 species fall in the category of threatened plants. The better conservation of natural resources can be well achieved through promotion of community based conservation stressing in-situ conservation through the establishment of nature reserves and ex-situ conservation through tissue culture, developing cultivation technologies and nurseries of medicinal plants and conducting regular trainings on the procedure of medicinal plants collection, processing amongst the end users/ the local people, traders and real stake holders.

Reconstruyendo el mundo desde la memoria: Análisis de la respuesta socioemocional en una comunidad afectada por la violencia política en Perú
Authors: Guerra Pallqui Luis Armando
Published: January 2022

El artículo se origina a partir de un estudio cualitativo sobre la condición social y económica que atraviesa la población altoandina en el Perú al haber sufrido la época del conflicto armado interno (1980-2000). De esta manera se aproximó, desde una perspectiva socioemocional y de memoria, al caso de una comunidad campesina que, durante este periodo, fue obligada a desplazarse, al atentar la violencia contra la vida de sus miembros, resquebrajando con ello su organización comunal. Como tesis se presenta que los efectos socioemocionales negativos (ansiedad, estrés post traumático, etc.) que produce el hecho del desplazamiento y la desestructuración del centro poblado pudieron ser mitigados por los efectos del compartir social y el afrontamiento comunal que produce el retorno a la comunidad y el trabajar en su reconstrucción. Sin embargo, se observa la subsistencia de problemas asociados a la pérdida de seres queridos y personas desaparecidas por el hecho de la violencia política.

An Imagined Worship: Localities and Creation of Representations in Contemporary Đạo Mẫu
Authors: Senepin Camille
Published: January 2022

The worship of the Four Palace [Tứ Phủ], recently named Đạo Mẫu [Mothers Godessess Religion] can be found in Vietnam and is mainly present in the Northern part of the country. After years of prohibition and stigmatization, this Four Palaces are inscribed as Intangible Cultural Heritage of the Unesco in December 2016. The worship and its possession ritual [ln đồng] were mostly analysed in Hanoi by Western and Vietnamese researchers. In this article, the author proposeses an analysis of the dynamics of the Four Palaces outside Hanoi, linked to the semantic transformation taking place within the worship. The importance of the locality and how specific places can create singular discourses about the deities, the mediums and the devotees are emphasized in this communication. The author demonstrates that the Đạo Mẫu community is imagined. Nevertheless, the author analyses how the locality can modify the representations and the perceptions of the spirits embodied by the medium, depending on the localisation of the speakers. This paper also highlighted the consequences of the heritagization on the vocabulary and the contemporary practices, and how it can change the ones that are considered unorthodox. In this analysis the author also mentions the significance of those discourses inside the social medias, mostly on Facebook, which is one of the contemporary challenges of the worship.

Central venous disease (CVD) is a serious complication in hemodialysis patients. Neurological manifestations are rare. We describe a female with end-stage renal disease with throbbing headache accompanied by paresthesia, weakness, and abnormal posture of her right hand during dialysis sessions. Motor symptoms completely resolved after each dialysis session, although the headaches persisted for several hours. No neurological deficit was evidenced on physical examination. Digital subtraction angiography identified an incomplete thrombosis of the left brachiocephalic vein with retrograde flow in the internal jugular vein, sigmoid sinus, and transverse sinus on the left side. This case illustrates that cerebral venous congestion due to CVD can produce neurological symptoms. Furthermore, we systematically review the literature to identify the characteristics of the cases described so far. This allows clinicians to know the entity and have a high index of suspicion in a hemodialysis patient who develops neurological symptoms.
Next-Wave of E-commerce: Mobile Customers Churn Prediction using Machine Learning
Authors: Asif Yaseen
Published: January 2022

With the swift increase of mobile devices such as personal digital assistants, smartphones and tablets, mobile commerce is broadly considered to be a driving force for the next wave of ecommerce. The power of mobile commerce is primarily due to the anytime-anywhere connectivity and the use of mobile technology, which creates enormous opportunities to attract and engage customers. Many believe that in an era of m-commerce especially in the telecommunication business retaining customers is a big challenge. In the face of an extremely competitive telecommunication industry, the value of acquiring new customers is very much expensive than retaining the existing customer. Therefore, it has become imperative to pay much attention to retaining the existing customers in order to get stabilized in a market comprised of vibrant service providers. In the current market, a number of prevailing statistical techniques for customer churn management are replaced by more machine learning and predictive analysis techniques. In this study, we employed the feature selection technique to identify the most influencing factors in customer churn prediction. We adopt the wrapper-based feature selection approach where Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is used for search purposes and different classifiers like Decision Tree (DT), Naïve Bayes, k-NN and Logistic regression is used for evaluation purposes to assess the enactment on optimally sampled and abridged dataset. Lastly, it is witnessed through simulations that our suggested method accomplishes fairly thriving for forecasting churners and hence could be advantageous for exponentially increasing competition in the telecommunication sector.

Au-delà des activités de lobbying qui ont œuvré pour qu’il en soit ainsi, il y a une explication plus rationnelle à l’échec climatique et environnemental de la PAC à ce jour, et à la difficulté pour qu’il n’en soit pas à nouveau ainsi dans la prochaine PAC. Cette explication tient au trade-off, au moins à court terme et au moins pour certains acteurs entre, d’une part, performances économiques, et, d’autre part, performances climatiques et environnementales. Ce trade-off requiert de trouver des financements additionnels, que ceux-ci soient liés aux marchés des biens et/ou des services, ou qu’ils résultent de financements publics. Une seconde difficulté, qui explique au moins pour partie la première, est d’ordre technique. Elle porte sur le fait que les connaissances relatives à la chaine causale qui, partant des instruments de la PAC, cherche à en apprécier les impacts sur les comportements, les changements de pratiques et de systèmes, et in fine le climat et l’environnement, sont trop lacunaires et trop partielles, en outre à des échelles souvent différentes, pour que lesdites connaissances puissent être facilement utilisées par les décideurs publics.

Le paiement pour service environnemental (PSE) Adour-Garonne : quels engagements ?
Authors: Pointereau Philippe , Gibert Caroline , René Laurent , Marty Nathalie , Jego Sylvie , Chayre Aurélien
Published: January 2022

Pour mettre en œuvre la mesure 24 du Plan Biodiversité, l’Agence de l’Eau Adour Garonne a expérimenté le dispositif « Paiements pour Services Environnementaux » (PSE) dès 2019 en utilisant le régime « de minimis » et en 2020 dans le cadre de la notification nationale obtenue auprès de la Commission européenne par l’Etat français. Ce dispositif sera poursuivi en 2021 et 2022. Cet article présente le dispositif mis en œuvre sur 30 territoires du bassin Adour-Garonne et les premiers résultats obtenus. Il est basé sur un système à points obtenus à partir de trois indicateurs : « La rotation longue et couverture du sol », « l’extensification des pratiques agricoles » au travers du niveau d’utilisation de l’azote chimique sur les surfaces fourragères et des produits phytosanitaires sur les cultures, et « la présence d’infrastructures agroécologiques (IAE) ». La rémunération est basée sur des conditions d’éligibilité, le score obtenu, une valeur du point de 5€, une note minimale de 16 points et un plafond d’aide. 382 PSE ont été signés en 2019 et 856 en 2020. Le montant moyen du PSE (y compris les GAEC) a été de 6250 € en 2019 et 7583 € en 2020. Les PSE de 2020 ont permis notamment de protéger et de valoriser 2500 ha de prairies humides, 4300 km de haies et 59 étangs anciens. Aucune évaluation ni de ce dispositif Adour-Garonne, ni du dispositif national n’a été effectuée à ce jour. Cependant il est apparu intéressant de présenter ces premiers résultats qui permettent d’alimenter le débat actuel sur les écorégimes de la future PAC en cours de discussion. Cet article présentera successivement le cadre du dispositif expérimental français, sa déclinaison dans le bassin Adour-Garonne et les premiers résultats obtenus après deux ans de mise en œuvre.
Oralidade nos Juizados Especiais Cíveis
Authors: Valente Cardoso Oscar
Published: January 2022

Os Juizados Especiais Cíveis designam, ao mesmo tempo, uma unidade jurisdicional e um procedimento diferenciado, que busca facilitar o acesso à justiça de pessoas com condições socioeconômicas reduzidas e conferir celeridade à prestação jurisdicional. O artigo aborda a oralidade, um dos valores que norteiam o procedimento dos Juizados Especiais no país, com o objetivo de verificar sua efetividade e influência na tramitação processual.
Juizados Especiais e variantes regionais
Authors: Jales Sokal Guilherme
Published: January 2022

O presente trabalho toma por subsídios as notórias variantes de estrutura e perfil dos juizados especiais cíveis no âmbito dos Estados, reveladas por recente pesquisa divulgada pelo CNJ/Ipea, para defender a necessidade de se reconhecer o importante papel da lei estadual fundada no art. 24, X, da Constituição. Para tanto, é feita a crítica da jurisprudência do STF que rejeita a competência concorrente da União e dos estados em matéria de processo dos Juizados Especiais, que não se harmoniza com a lógica, a história, os valores democráticos e o espírito do federalismo. Assim, defende-se no trabalho a validade da lei estadual que adeque o regime dos juizados à realidade local, como parâmetro mais adequado a pautar a atuação do CNJ e do STF.

Published: January 2022

O Tribunal do Júri possui uma longa história no país. A despeito dessa longevidade são poucos os estudos empíricos sobre a instituição judicial que conta com a participação de cidadãos. Esse texto procura contribuir para diminuir essa lacuna. Os principais objetivos são: a) analisar os fatores processuais que podem influenciar na condenação do réu nas sessões do Tribunal do Júri; b) criar um modelo com potencial de identificar a probabilidade de condenação ou de absolvição do réu. Para alcançar esses propósitos serão testadas as seguintes hipóteses: a) rés do gênero feminino tendem a ser menos condenadas do que réus do gênero masculino; b) réus denunciados tendo como vítimas mulheres tendem a ser mais condenados; c) sessões do Júri designadas em menos de um ano tendem a ser mais condenatórias.

General anesthesia has proved to be an ef- fective mean for treating patients in need of restorative and surgical treatment, when other methods have failed. Aim: The aim of this retrospective clinical-statistical study was to assess the characteristics, oral health management of special needs patients attending for DGA treatment at Agios Dimitrios General Hospital of Thessaloniki,. Patients and method: Medical files retrieved from 169 male and 129 female patients, from 5 to 63 years of age and 36,2% of them were children and adoles- cence.257 patients during a twelve year old period, from 01/01/2008 to 31/12/2019. Demographic, quantitative and qualitative data were obtained from patients’ files (e.g place of residence, gender, age, type of disability, comorbidity, amount and type of treatments provided and were analyzed by means of descriptive and comparative statistics.Results: 298 DGA treatments were performed to 169 males and 129 female patients, from 5 to 63 years of age and 63,8% of them were over 18 years old. 68,5% of the patients were mentally retarded, 17,8% were au- tistic, 7% had cerebral palsy, 3,5% suffered from vari- ous syndromes and 3,2% were patients with systemic diseases and other health issues. A total of 2787 treat- ments were provided, with higher prevalence of 49,8% for restorative treatments. Conclusions: In many patients with severe disability, DGA is the only treatment option. The number and the geographic distribution of dental departments of Greek NHS that provide DGA, does not guarantee the equal and unimpeded access of special needs patients. Therefore, implementation of organized oral preventive programs is necessary, along with investment on the appropriate infrastructure, that would allow the creation of additional dental departments providing DGA treatments within the NHS.
Marie Anne Paulze no descubrimento do osíxeno

Nunha comunicación presentada por nós no XXXII Congreso de ENCIGA, celebrado en Viveiro no ano 2019, titulada “MARIE ANNE e a TÁBOA PERIÓDICA” falabamos da vida desta científica para, comprendendo como fora a súa formación académico-científica, estar en condicións de asimilar mellor as súas contribucións ao desenvolvemento da Táboa Periódica, na celebración do “ Ano Internacional da Táboa Periódica”. Tamén pretendiamos comprender cal foi a contribución de Marie ao mundo da química axudando ao seu gran Pygmalion: Antoine Laurent Lavoisier. Nesa comunicación pódese entender cal é a nosa reflexión sobre a súa contribución ao desenvolvemento da táboa periódica ao longo do último terzo do século XVIII, de modo particular; canto debeu colaborar Marie Anne – sempre do lado e da man do seu admirado e idolatrado Lavoisier- ao establecemento da primeira táboa das “Substancias simples” que aparece no “Tratado Elemental de Química” publicado por Antoine no ano 1789. Debemos lembrar que a táboa periódica que hoxe coñecemos e celebramos é froito do xenio de Mendeleev; pero tamén debemos citar a importancia das contribucións de Julius Lothar Meyer (quen fai 150 anos chegou ás mesmas conclusións que Dimitri, pero non se atreveu a publicalas e, por iso, chegou tarde á historia).Tamén cómpre insistir en que houbo moitas outras achegas na historia da química á construción da táboa periódica definitiva. Hai algunha evidencia da posible contribución de Marie Anne á construción ou elaboración das distintas táboas periódicas da historia? Estivo presente ou actuou significativamente no descubrimento dalgún elemento químico? Verémolo logo.

Published: January 2022

Este ano 2019 estanse celebrando moitos acontecementos relacionados coa química: os 150 anos da creación da T. P. moderna, por Dimitri Mendeleev; os 1 00 nos da entrada en funcionamento da IUPAC; os 230 anos da publicación do “Tratado Elemental de Química”, de Antoine Lavoisier;…etc. Na nosa Asociación, ENCIGA, iniciamos o pasado ano 2018, no congreso XXXI que tivo lugar en Lalín, a antesala das celebracións deste ano e, entre outros moitos actos, publicamos un exemplar extraordinario do noso Boletín, o Nº 87, dedicado a lembrar, situar e comentar as diversas celebracións deste ano 2019. Este ano, tamén, escolleuse como científico do ano en Galicia a Tomás Batuecas Marugán. Ten algo que ver, este científico galego, coa táboa periódica? Terá algo que ver coa IUPAC? Cal é a posible razón da súa elección como galego do ano no mundo da ciencia? Sabemos cal é a súa transcendencia científica?. Con motivo da celebración do día da ciencia en Galicia, o Consello da Cultura Galega encargounos a realización dunha Unidade Didáctica dedicada a facer unha semblanza da contribución científica do personaxe homenaxeado. Neste artigo queremos lembrarvos a todos vos a valía científica deste destacado profesor universitario galego.
Química Analítica e Táboa Periódica e viceversa
Authors: Yebra M. Carmen
Published: January 2022

A Organización das Nacións Unidas para a Educación, a Ciencia e a Cultura (UNESCO) declarou 2019 Ano Internacional da Táboa Periódica (IYPT). Este acontecemento lembrou o 150 aniversario da creación da táboa periódica dos Elementos, xa que en febreiro de 1869 o químico ruso Dimitri Mendeleev (1834-1907) comunica á Sociedade Química Rusa de San Petersburgo a presentación da súa táboa periódica baseada na orde crecente dos pesos atómicos. Por tanto, esta celebración é motivo para que se reflexione sobre a relación existente entre a Química Analítica e a Táboa Periódica, é dicir o que esta disciplina da Química contribuíu para que fose posible establecer a Táboa Periódica, e o que esta achegou á Química Analítica. Un exemplo diso son os editoriais publicados sobre este tema en dous das revistas máis prestixiosas de Química Analítica como son Analytical Chemistry e Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry.
