Le renforcement du système immunitaire chez les espèces aviaires vulnérables est devenu une approche fortement recherchée pour les protéger contre les infections, surtout d’origine virale. La présente étude a eu pour objectif d’évaluer l’impact de quatre additifs alimentaires sur la modulation du système immunitaire, suite à des prises vaccinales contre la maladie de Gumboro [infec­tious bursal disease (IBD)] et de Newcastle [Newcastle disease (ND)] chez le poulet de chair (Gallus gallus). Le suivi expérimental a été fait sur 500 poussins d’un jour de type chair et de souche Ross, également répartis en cinq groupes (quatre traitements et un témoin). Les produits de traitements ont été à base d’antibiotiques, de phytobiotiques (cannelle et gingembre) et de probiotique (levure Saccharomyces cerevisiae), administrés par voie buccale et par l’eau de boisson. Les traitements ont été effectués en trois périodes d’âges différents : au jour (J) J6–J9, J21–J23 et J33–J35. Les doses primo vaccinales ont été adminis­trées simultanément au J7, et les rappels aux J14 et J21 respectivement contre IBD et ND. Des échantillons sériques ont été prélevés chez cinq poulets de chaque parquet aux J18 et J31. Les titres d’anticorps ont été analysés par le test Elisa pour le virus de l’IBD et par le test d’inhibition de l’hémagglutination pour le virus de la ND. Les résultats obtenus ont révélé qu’aucun effet immunostimu­lant vis-à-vis des titres d’anticorps contre le virus d’IBD n’était induit par l’ajout d’un des quatre adjuvants testés (p > 0,05). En revanche pour la ND, un effet immunostimulant a été observé, plus particulièrement chez les groupes traités au gingembre ou à la levure. Cette différence n’a cependant pas été significative par rapport au témoin (p > 0,05).
Variations de l’état corporel d’ovins et systèmes d’élevage dans la région de Chlef, Algérie

Published: May 2017

L’état corporel de lots de brebis mises à la reproduction a été noté dans des exploitations de la région de Chlef en Algérie de février 2012 à avril 2013. L’état corporel et les réserves des brebis ont varié selon, d’une part, la catégorie des femelles concernées (agnelages en septembre-octobre ou en mars-avril) et, d’autre part, l’exploitation. La prise en compte des quantités de fourrage distribuées en complément du pâturage et des réserves corporelles a permis d’établir un diagnostic sur l’alimentation dans chaque situation. L’interaction entre l’état corporel des brebis mises à la lutte et les performances de reproduction a été mise en évidence. En effet, à mesure que la note d’état corporel (NEC) à la mise à la lutte augmentait, la fertilité et la prolificité s’amélioraient. Les brebis dont la NEC à la mise à la lutte a été supérieure ou égale à 3 ont obtenu des taux de fertilité de 100 % et de prolificité de 130 %, contre respectivement 76 % et 100 % pour celles dont la NEC à la mise à la lutte a été inférieure à 3.

Published: May 2017

Les variations mensuelles du volume, de la motilité massale et de la concentration de la semence ont été étudiées pendant trois années chez quarante béliers Djallonké de la zone forestière de Côte d’Ivoire. Deux éjaculats ont été récoltés par semaine à l’aide d’un vagin artificiel. Pour chaque année, le volume a été plus faible avant mai (de 0,55 ± 0,03 à 0,75 ± 0,04 ml) qu’après (de 0,61 ± 0,8 à 0,9 ± 0,61 ml) où les variations ont été significatives, sauf en 1993. La motilité massale n’a enregistré que des baisses significatives dans l’année (de 4,42 ± 0,06 à 3,5 ± 0,2), mais avec un accroissement des valeurs entre avril et juillet (entre 3,85 ± 0,01 et 4,45 ± 0,03). La concentration a augmenté d’avril à août et significativement en juin et juillet [de 3,36 ± 0,12 × 10^9 à 3,8 ± 0,12 × 10^9 spermatozoïdes (spz)/ml)]. Les moyennes globales des trois années ont montré a) une augmentation du volume à partir de juin (de 0,71 ± 0,02 à 0,77 ± 0,02 ml), et b) une baisse de la motilité massale significative de février à avril (de 4,28 ± 0,06 à 4,01 ± 0,1), en juillet (3,9 ± 0,1), en septembre (4,1 ± 0,07) et en décembre (3,92 ± 0,1). La concentration a augmenté en juin (de 2,95 ± 0,05 × 10^9 à 3,52 ± 0,07 × 10^9 spz/ml) et juillet (3,18 ± 0,06 x 10^9 spz/ml). La variation de ces paramètres chez le Djallonké a donc été annuellement différente, non caractéristique et non-circannienne. Toutefois, la période entre avril et août a été plus favorable à l’augmentation des paramètres. Malgré les baisses significatives de la motilité massale, les paramètres ont été de bonne qualité pour l’insémination artificielle toute l’année.

Published: May 2017

Cette étude a eu pour but d’évaluer les effets de l’utilisation des graines torréfiées de niébé dans l’alimentation des pintadeaux de race locale, en substitution à celles de soja, sur leurs performances zootechniques et leur rentabilité économique. Trois cent pintadeaux de 12 jours d’âge ont été répartis en 12 lots. Quatre régimes alimentaires iso-énergétiques, incorporant 5,0 % et 10,0 % de graines torréfiées de niébé ou de soja respectivement au démarrage et à la croissance-finition ont été préparés. Ces régimes avaient des niveaux protéiques de 17,5 % ou 20,0 % au démarrage, puis de 15,0 % ou 17,5 %, pendant la croissance-finition. Les régimes démarrage ont été servis du 13e au 68e jour et ceux de croissance-finition du 69e au 222e jour. Les paramètres zootechniques (poids vif, gain de poids et ingérés alimentaires) ont été suivis toutes les deux semaines. A la fin de l’essai, quatre sujets par lot ont été abattus pour évaluer les rendements carcasses et de certains organes. La rentabilité économique des différents régimes a été évaluée. L’incorporation des graines torréfiées de niébé n’a induit des différences significatives pour aucun des paramètres étudiés, à l’exception de quelques paramètres des rendements carcasses. En revanche, la différence de niveaux de protéines a engendré des différences significatives en faveur des régimes les plus riches en protéines pour la plupart des paramètres mesurés ; la durée d’élevage des pintades des régimes plus riches a été réduite de deux semaines. Les graines torréfiées de niébé peuvent donc être utilisées dans l’alimentation des pintadeaux de race locale, en substitution à celles de soja.

Escolhas metodológicas nas pesquisas em cinema e educação: é possível falar em “Cinema de formação”?
Authors: Marcello Fabiana Amorim , Seibert Lisli
Published: May 2017

Neste texto, nosso objetivo é pensar alguns pontos de contato entre literatura e cinema – ou, mais precisamente, como um modo de ser da literatura pode dar pistas sobre um modo de ser do cinema. Neste sentido, apontamos para as possibilidades que o (sub)gênero literário “romance de formação” insinua em termos de possibilidades metodológicas de pesquisa para o campo do cinema e da educação. Assim, interessa-nos mostrar como, ao eleger como central um sujeito que se (trans)forma por meio de uma narrativa imagética singular, na qual forma e conteúdo fazem-se indissociáveis, alguns materiais nos sugerem elementos para a composição de uma categoria que denominamos “filmes de formação” – e que, com isso, abre caminhos de análise voltados para um conceito que a nós, do campo da educação, é bastante caro, qual seja, aquele mesmo de formação.

THE PRESENT STATE OF ECUMENISM
Authors: Rausch Thomas P.
Published: May 2017

ABSTRACT: The 500th Anniversary of the Reformation offers an occasion to reflect on the progress of the ecumenical movement, now over 100 years old. If a new atmosphere of respect and cooperation exists between many churches, there are new obstacles to reconciliation in the areas of demographics, institutional concerns, and theology, leading some to speak of a period of stagnation or “ecumenical winter.” The WCC’s convergence text, The Church: Towards a Common Vision, is a promising document, but it is seen by many of the “new” churches of the Global South as too Western and Eurocentric. This essay concludes with some suggestions for moving ahead of the present impasse.RESUMO: O 500º aniversário da Reforma oferece uma ocasião para refletir sobre o progresso do movimento ecumênico, hoje com mais de 100 anos. Se, por um lado, existe uma nova atmosfera de respeito e cooperação entre muitas igrejas, por outro, existem novos obstáculos à reconciliação nas áreas da demografia, dos interesses institucionais e da teologia, levando alguns a falar de um período de estagnação ou “inverno ecumênico”. O texto de convergência do Conselho Mundial de Igrejas (CMI), A Igreja: para uma visão comum, é um documento promissor, mas considerado por muitas das “novas” igrejas do Hemisfério Sul como demasiado Ocidental e eurocêntrico. O ensaio conclui com algumas sugestões para sair do impasse atual.

O presente artigo aborda o tema do controle de constitucionalidade na França. Examina-se inicialmente o histórico do modelo tradicional de controle de constitucionalidade francês. Na sequência, analisam-se as alterações promovidas pela revisão constitucional de 23 de julho de 2008, implementada pela Lei Orgânica 1523, de 10 de dezembro de 2009, que entrou em vigor em 1º de março de 2010. Essas importantes alterações alteraram o modelo de controle de constitucionalidade das leis na França, que deixou de ser exclusivamente prévio e criaram hipótese de controle a posteriori, ainda que limitado.
Direitos constitucionais de seguridade social no Brasil: uma abordagem orientada por direitos humanos
Authors: Strapazzon Carlos Luiz
Published: May 2017

No Brasil, os direitos a prestações de Seguridade Social podem ser compreendidos a partir de quatro diferentes fases.Três já experimentadas e uma ainda em desenvolvimento. O primeiro é o modelo legislativo de direitos previdenciários, de direito à saúde, do período anterior a 1988.  O segundo,é o modelo Constitucional de Seguridade Social,aprovado pela Assembleia Nacional Constituinte (ANC) de 1988.O terceiro é o modelo de regulação dos direitos constitucionais de seguridade social, da primeira década posterior à Constituição.O quarto é o modelo orientado pelos direitos humanos de segurança social e vem sendo construído progressivamente, a partir da crítica ao terceiro modelo e da releitura quanto à aplicação dos tratados de direitos humanos na interpretação do direito constitucional. É sobretudo sobre o sentido do terceiro e do quarto modelos que este artigo se ocupa.
Aborto e Congresso Nacional: uma análise crítica do cenário legislativo
Authors: Sganzerla Rogerio Barros
Published: May 2017

Usualmente, quando a questão do aborto é suscitada em qualquer debate, a sua criminalização (ou não) torna-se ponto principal da discussão. Entretanto, há questões que vão além do aspecto criminal, tais como o planejamento familiar e políticas públicas de intervenção, informação e prevenção ao aborto. De forma a entender como este tema é abordado pela Câmara dos Deputados e o Senado Federal, realizou-se uma análise empírica dos projetos de leisobre aborto. Após a análise e sistematização dos dados, pode-se constatar que o Congresso Nacional possui algumas orientações importantes sobre o aborto: (i) é uma questão com discussão recente; (ii) o foco principal do debate é o aspecto criminal do aborto (legalização ou criminalização); (iii) os projetos transitam e são deliberados essencialmente nas Comissões e não em Plenário; e (iv) há uma tendência em manter o status quo atual do aborto e somente vinte e cinto (25) projetos de lei, de um total de cento e vinte e nove (129), tratam de políticas públicas específicas para as mulheres. Constatou-se que somente um projeto foi transformado em Lei Ordinária e, mesmo assim, pretendendo retirar uma expressão específica do artigo 20 da Lei de Contravenções Penais.

One strategy of the Ministry of Finance in the institutional transformation is to strengthen the role of Financial Education and Training Agency (FETA) in the development of human resources is to become a corporate university. Furthermore, base on theory that one of the important elements that should exist in an organization to become a corporate university is knowledge management (KM). The problem which occurs in FETA is that the organization does not have specific mechanisms to manage the knowledge. Moreover, to overcome that problem, the organization need to build a KM system that allows each individual to share useful knowledge for the organization. As the first step, it needs a good preparation to lessen the failure in implementing it; which is by measuring the readiness level of knowledge management implementation. Therefore, this study aims to measure the readiness level of knowledge management implementation in FETA in order to provide recommendations for improving the readiness of it. The readiness level is measured based on the variables mapping including KM Infrastructure, KM Enabler, and KM Critical Success Factor  and then mapped into the KM aspects. The data were collected by using a sample survey method which were gathered from the employees of FETA. The data are then analyzed descriptively and inferentially to get the description about the readiness level of FETA in implementing knowledge management. Based on this research, it can be concluded that FETA is at the receptive level of readiness in implementing knowledge management. It indicates that all the indicators in KM, have been very supportive to the implementation of KM in FETA.

Published: May 2017

Fungal phytotoxins are natural secondary metabolites produced by plant pathogenic
fungi during host–pathogen interactions. They have received considerable particular attention
for elucidating disease etiology, and consequently to design strategies for disease control.
Due to wide differences in their chemical structures, these toxic metabolites have different
ecological and environmental roles and mechanisms of action. This review aims at summarizing
the studies on the possible use of these metabolites as tools in biological and integrated
weed management, e.g. as: novel and environmentally friendly herbicides; lead for
novel compounds; sources of novel mechanisms of action. Moreover, the limiting factors for
utilizing those metabolites in practice will also be briefly discussed.

Published: May 2017

This article presents an analysis of the distribution of green public spaces (GPS) in Mexico City as an urban environmental injustice case. Using spatial and demographic data, a Park Need Index (PNI) was calculated for the 16 boroughs of the city. Results show that distribution of GPS is directly correlated with demographic features usually present within low socioeconomic sectors of the city. Such findings align with the Environmental Justice Theory postulation that urban environmental amenities are inequitably distributed against marginal populations.

The transition of worker to formality: evidences from duration analysis
Authors: Romanello Michele , De Oliveira Gonçalves Flávio
Published: May 2017

This paper aims to evidence the characteristics of individuals that affect more the transition from informal to formal sector. The initial hypothesis is that the level of education of each individual is the most important characteristic explaining this transition. To achieve this purpose, we utilize parametric and non-parametric survival analysis: through the hazard function, it was possible to investigate what factors affect the risk of transiting to formality for a worker. For this analysis, we use the data from the Monthly Employment Survey (PME). The level of education appears to be the main characteristic that explains the exit of workers from informality.

Published: May 2017

Sebagai salah satu sumberdaya pesisir, hutan mangrove memiliki fungsi sosial ekonomi, fungsi ekologis, dan fungsi fisik. Namun demikian, sebagian hutan mangrove di pesisir Kabupaten Demak berada pada kondisi rusak. Menurut data dari Dinas Kelautan dan Perikanan Kabupaten Demak, pada tahun 2011 luas ekosistem mangrove di Kabupaten Demak sekitar 8 % dalam kondisi rusak. Sebagai salah satu upaya perlindungan wilayah pesisir di Kabupaten Demak, maka diperlukan revitalisasi hutan mangrove melalui kegiatan konservasi. Kegiatan konservasi dapat berjalan lebih efektif apabila diawali dengan proses perencanaan berdasarkan data-data, inventarisasi, dan pemantauan. Maksud penelitian ini adalah untuk memberikan kontribusi terkait arahan spasial perencanaan konservasi mangrove di wilayah pesisir Kabupaten Demak melalui identifikasi distribusi dan luas tutupan hutan mangrove serta dinamikanya dalam kurun waktu lima tahun terakhir. Analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis deskriptif kualitatif dan kuantitatif sederhana dengan bantuan data citra penginderaan jauh dan Sistem Informasi Geografis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam kurun waktu lima tahun terakhir (2010-2015), distribusi spasial dan luasan hutan mangrove di wilayah pesisir Kabupaten Demak secara umum tidak mengalami perubahan yang besar, yaitu hanya mengalami penurunan seluas 68,17 Ha. Akan tetapi, dalam pengamatan yang lebih detail pada lingkup kecamatan dan desa, perubahan distribusi dan luasan terlihat lebih variatif. As the one of coastal resource, mangrove has socio-economic, and physical functions. Unfortunately, certain extent of the mangrove forests in coastal area of Demak Regency has been degraded over time. Department of Marine and Fisheries of Demak Regency has been informed that at 2011, about 8 % of mangrove area in Demak Regency is in damaged condition. In order to protect the coastal area of Demak Regency, it necessary to revitalize mangrove forest by conservation programme. Conservation can be effective if started by data inventaritation and monitoring-based planning. The aim of this study is to give a contribution on spatial planning of mangrove conservation in coastal area of Demak Regency through mangrove distribution, area, and its dynamics identifications. The dynamics of the mangrove area will be identified for the last five years. The analysis method used in this study is based on qualitative assessment aided by support of remote sensing data and Geographic Information System. The study results show that in the last five years (2010-2015), mangrove forests in Demak Regency didn’t change drastically, instead it is only decreased around 68,17 Hectars.

Perkembangan Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) sebagai wahana dan kamera digital non-metrik sebagai sensor semakin mempermudah dalam akuisisi data foto udara Foto Udara Format Kecil (FUFK). Penelitian ini bertujuan menerapkan metode stereoplotting digital untuk menghasilkan Digital Elevation Model (DEM) dari FUFK hasil pemotretan udara dengan wahana UAV sebagian bukit Jering yang merupakan lokasi pembangunan perumahan murah bersubsidi Godean Jogja Hill’s. Metode penelitian ini meliputi: proses perencanaan (perencanaan jalur terbang, pelaksanaan pemotretan udara), pengolahan data (kalibrasi kamera, koreksi foto udara, stereoplotting, interpolasi), dan uji akurasi. Hasil penelitian adalah blok FUFK dan DEM dengan metode stereoplotting. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah FUFK yang diperoleh dari UAV memiliki distorsi lensa yang cukup besar, oleh karena itu stereoplotting interaktif dapat diterapkan pada FUFK dengan hasil yang cukup baik jika FUFK yang digunakan telah terkoreksi dari distorsi, terutama distorsi lensa. Akurasi absolut DEM yang dihasilkan memiliki HRMSE sebesar 0.073 meter dengan horizontal accuracy yang mencapai 0.121 meter, sedangkan RMSEz yang dimiliki hanya mampu mencapai 0.482 meter dengan vertical accurasi yang mencapai 0.793 meter pada tingkat kepercayaan 90%. Berdasarkan DEM yang diperoleh, maka dapat digunakan untuk merepresentasikan konfigurasi permukaan bukit dan menghitung volume sebagian bukit Jering yang telah dikeruk sebesar 55.953,813 m3. The development of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) as a vehicle and non-metric digital camera as a sensor further simplify the data acquisition of Small Format Aerial Photography (SFAP). This study aims to apply digital stereoplotting method for generating Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of SFAP results of aerial photography with UAV on the Jering hill which is cheap subsidized housing location named Godean Yogyakarta Hill’s. This research method includes: flight planning (flight paths, aerial photography acquisition), data processing (camera calibration, correction of aerial photographs, stereoplotting, interpolation), and accuracy test. Results of the research was SFAP block and DEM generated from stereoplotting method. The conclusion of this study is SFAP obtained from UAV has a lens distortion is large, and therefore can be applied to interactive stereoplotting SFAP with fairly good results if SFAP used has been corrected of distortion, especially distortion lens (idealized). The absolute accuracy of the resulting DEM have HRMSE of 0,073 meters with a horizontal accuracy which reaches 0,121 meters, while RMSEz only able to reach 0,482 meters with a vertical accuracy which reaches 0793 meters at 90% confidence level. Based on the DEM obtained, it can be used to represent the surface configuration and to calculate the volume partially Jering hill that has been dredged out for is 55.953,813 m3.

Objective: The present study was undertaken to prolong the release of orally administered drug. The aim is to formulate, develop, and evaluate theintragastric buoyant tablets of venlafaxine hydrochloride, which releases the drug in a sustained manner over a period of 12 hrs. Different formulationswere formulated using the polymers Carbopol 934 P, xanthan gum, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC K100M) with varying concentration ofdrug: Polymer ratio of 1:1, 1:1.5, 1:2, in which sodium bicarbonate acts as gas generating agent, and microcrystalline cellulose as a diluent.Methods: The tablets were prepared by direct compression and evaluated for tablet thickness, weight variation, tablet hardness, friability, in vitrobuoyancy test, in vitro drug release and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Formulations were evaluated by floating time, floating lag time and in vitro drug release. Dissolution profiles were subjected for various kinetic treatments to analyze the release pattern of drug.Results: It was found that drug release depends on swelling, erosion, and diffusion, thus following the non-Fickian/anomalous type of diffusion.Formulation F8 was considered as an optimized formulation for gastro retentive floating tablet of venlafaxine hydrochloride. The optimizedformulation showed sustained drug release and remained buoyant on the surface of the medium for more than 12 hrs. As the concentration of HPMCK100M increases in the formulation the drug release rate was found to be decreased. The optimized formulation was subjected for the stability studiesand was found to be stable as no significant change was observed in various evaluated parameters of the formulation.Conclusion: It can be concluded that floating drug delivery system of venlafaxine hydrochloride can be successfully formulated as an approach toincrease gastric residence time, thereby improving its bioavailability.Keywords: Venlafaxine hydrochloride, Intragastric buoyant, Floating drug delivery systems, Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose K100M, Carbopol 934 P,Xanthan gum.
