Published: January 2024

Este estudo tem como objetivo desenvolver e avaliar a aceitabilidade sensorial e físico química de uma barra de cereais com Produto Alimentício Natural Rico em Fibras e adição de diferentes níveis de cacau. Foram utilizados na preparação aveia, chia, proteína texturizada de soja, quinoa, linhaça marrom, farinha de banana verde, mel e cacau. Foram elaboradas três formulações de barra de cereais: F1 (0% de cacau), F2 (3%) e F3 (5%) . Participaram da análise sensorial 74 julgadores não treinados que avaliaram os atributos de aparência, aroma, sabor, sabor residual, textura e cor, e aceitação global. As análises físico químicas foram realizadas em triplicata e determinou-se umidade, cinzas, proteínas, lipídios, carboidrato e fibra total nas barras de cereais. Todas as formulações tiveram índice de aceitação sensorial acima de 70% exceto aroma na F1, pois a adição de cacau aumentou estatisticamente (p<0,05) os escores de aceitação nas formulações F2 e F3. Maiores teores de umidade, cinzas e fibras foram verificados em F2 e F3. Todas as formulações apresentaram propriedade funcional devido ao seu alto teor de fibra alimentar pois pode se afirmar que uma barra de cereal de 30g oferece 6,73g (F1) a 7,16g (F3) na porção, apresentando alto teor de fibra alimentar em relação a outras barras de cereais no mercado. Um nível de adição de 3 a 5% de cacau em barra de cereais melhora o perfil nutricional e sensorial do produto. Além disso, apresenta aceitabilidade semelhante ao produto padrão, com boas expectativas de comercialização.

Authors: Stigliano Daniel Ernesto
Published: January 2024

Las escuelas, institutos, facultades y departamentos de toda universidad, tienen entre sus principales funciones la distribución y transmisión del conocimiento. Pero ¿Cuáles conocimientos? ¿Para quién?, ¿De qué forma? ¿Con qué intenciones educativas? En este artículo, se invita a pensar en los diseños curriculares no sólo como políticas públicas que aseguran el desarrollo de una nación sino como políticas públicas que aseguren el cumplimiento de todos los proyectos de vida que quieran emprender sus habitantes para transitar una vida plena. Para ello, desde el enfoque de capacidades se fundamenta la necesidad de descentrarse de los contenidos a enseñar para adoptar un modelo de enseñanza que dé prioridad al desarrollo humano de los y las estudiantes. Finalmente, se reflexiona acerca de la manera de planificar la enseñanza partiendo ya no de lo que se cree que es necesario aprender sino más bien de las capacidades que asegurarán la formación de profesionales universitarios.

IMIGRANTES E REFUGIADOS COMO DESAFIO PEDAGÓGICO
Authors: Silva Rodrigo Manoel Dias da , Torres Ana Carolina
Published: January 2024

É possível identificar os fluxos migratórios em uma ampla crescente, especialmente a migração de Sul-Sul Global entre países da América Latina. Nesse contexto, o Brasil se constituiu como um dos maiores anfitriões por apresentar uma das mais avançadas legislações para imigrantes e refugiados. Os desafios pedagógicos para garantir o direito à educação do estrangeiro, comumente, são postos pela dificuldade de falar o idioma, pela cultura e atitudes discriminatórias – xenofobia, adaptação, a desinformação e a falta de formação adequada dos profissionais docentes para receber e conduzir acertadamente esses alunos em espaços educativos. A pesquisa emerge dos desafios colocados pelo fluxo migratório e o processo de escolarização da população estrangeira no ensino público e visa analisar práticas docentes em contextos interculturais com o propósito de ressignificar a educação de imigrantes, apátridas e refugiados (genericamente definidos como estrangeiros) em escolas públicas, partindo das reflexões e análise das entrevistas realizadas na escola EMEF Olímpio Vianna Albrecht no município de São Leopoldo, região do Vale do Rio dos Sinos - RS.
DEL FALLIDO MODELO DE LA INCLUSIÓN POR NECESIDAD AL FRACASO DE LA EXCLUSIÓN POR CAPACIDAD
Authors: Gutiérrez Miguel Francisco
Published: January 2024

En el desarrollo humano, la expansión de las capacidades individuales está intrínsecamente vinculada a las condiciones regulatorias en un contexto territorial. Las instituciones

desempeñan un papel crucial al construir incentivos y permitir el despliegue a lo largo del tiempo de las capacidades sociales. En particular, el acceso a la educación y la salud son vectores fundamentales que determinan las posibilidades a largo plazo de los actores. El artículo se propone presentar una aproximación a dos modelos morales de inclusión social. Por un lado, se explora la interpretación que busca garantizar la inclusión en función de las diversas necesidades, respaldada por la multiplicidad de deseos propios de la posmodernidad. Por otro lado, se examina una perspectiva que enfatiza el acceso al mercado a través de competencias, donde la eficiencia determina la asignación de bienes y servicios. Estos enfoques se confrontan en relación con la variable que condiciona el equilibrio a largo plazo: la demanda para la inclusión y la oferta para la eficiencia. En el contexto post-pandemia, las políticas públicas dependerán de la correcta identificación de objetivos para conformar una sociedad de libertad, igualdad y fraternidad. El trabajo no busca realizar un análisis exhaustivo del devenir histórico de estas aproximaciones, sino recuperar sus características principales y destacar la relevancia de sus dinámicas dialécticas en los procesos sociales y económicos. Aunque la coyuntura actual limita la visión completa de sus dinámicas, estudiar los principios de ambas aproximaciones proporciona herramientas para evaluar los acuerdos sociales que conforman los mecanismos de inclusión e igualdad.
EDUCACIÓN A DISTANCIA, NO DISTANTE
Authors: Ledezma Iván Carlos Arandia
Published: January 2024

La educación presencial e inmediata siempre ha sido entendida como la manera ‘natural’ de enseñar y aprender, pues se sustenta en las formas primarias de la comunicación humana, el habla directa y la gestualidad. De ahí que cualquier manera diferente de aprender y enseñar que afecte la inmediatez aludida, sea vista con un cierto grado de desconfianza. Este es un elemento que, junto a otros, genera ciertos prejuicios, a los que alegóricamente tomamos en este texto como 'mitos', que terminan por dificultar y ralentizar el proceso de integración de la tecnología en las nuevas formas de enseñar y aprender, unas veces de forma presencial y otras mediante métodos remotos, o ambas en procesos b-learning. El objetivo de este artículo es analizar y responder, de forma argumentada, a dichos cuestionamientos, considerando que pueden facilitar o paralizar cuanta iniciativa de política pública se intente implementar sobre la temática.

Authors: Cardoso Silvana Aparecida Plastina , Costa Leonardo Bocchi , Bonavides Samia Saad Gallotti
Published: January 2024

Este artigo objetivou analisar a importância da ressignificação do instituto da pena a partir da justiça restaurativa no Direito Penal. Utilizou-se como métodos de levantamento de dados a pesquisa indireta bibliográfica e documental. Para realizar a abordagem da pesquisa, utilizou-se o método dedutivo. Inicialmente foi abordada a necessidade de real análise do Direito Penal como último recurso da pacificação social, de modo que haja mínima intervenção de seus mecanismos de repressão na sociedade. Abordar-se-á, a justiça restaurativa como forma alternativa de resolução de conflitos na esfera penal, despontando como uma nova possibilidade de concretizar a pacificação das relações sociais de forma menos arbitrária. Por fim, o potencial revolucionário da justiça restaurativa - já que essa nova forma de resolução de conflitos traz consigo o rompimento do paradigma da pena como consequência necessária e obrigatória da prática de um delito - viabilizando-se a redução da penalização dos indivíduos na sociedade brasileira visando contribuir com a redução da população carcerária, o enfrentamento à superlotação de unidades prisionais e possibilitar o vislumbre de um novo sistema penal em construção, com compromissos humanitários. Conclui-se que o rompimento da justiça restaurativa com o paradigma da obrigatoriedade da pena aflitiva viabiliza reflexões significativas na sociedade brasileira, a apresentar potencial combate a problemas estruturais relevantes como a expansão do Direito Penal e os anseios punitivistas.
OS USOS E COBERTURA DA TERRA INFLUENCIAM A COMUNIDADE DE MACROINVERTEBRADOS BENTÔNICOS EM RIACHOS?
Authors: Pastore Bruna Luisa , Ebling Lucas Abbadi , Restello Rozane Maria
Published: January 2024

O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar a influência dos usos e cobertura da terra sobre a estrutura da comunidade e composição dos grupos tróficos funcionais de macroinvertebrados bentônicos em riachos do Alto Uruguai gaúcho. Foram definidos 9 riachos (<3ª ordem), com diferentes porcentagens de vegetação arbórea nativa, agricultura e urbanização na área de drenagem. Estes, foram classificados em riachos naturais, agrícolas e urbanos. Os organismos foram coletados com um amostrador Surber (malha 250 mm e área de 0,09 m2) em substrato pedregoso na primavera de 2021. Foram coletados 7.741 organismos, distribuídos em 42 famílias. A estrutura da comunidade diferiu entre os riachos, mostrando maior abundância nos riachos agrícolas e menor riqueza nos riachos urbanos. As famílias mais abundantes foram Chironomidae (43,48%) e Baetidae (19,42% dos organismos). A comunidade amostrada nos riachos agrícolas e urbanos foi marcada pela presença de táxons tolerantes e generalistas. Coletor-catador foi o grupo trófico mais abundante em todos os riachos, e o único que diferiu entre os usos da terra, onde a agricultura contribuiu para o aumento deste grupo. Os riachos naturais tiveram maior abundância de fragmentadores. Os resultados indicam que os processos de agricultura e urbanização modificam a estrutura das comunidades de macroinvertebrados bentônicos e afetam a distribuição e composição dos grupos tróficos destes ambientes. Assim, destaca-se a importância de integrar abordagens funcionais, como os grupos tróficos, às abordagens taxonômicas, para um melhor entendimento das condições ecológicas dos riachos frente aos impactos antrópicos.

Published: January 2024

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo trazer os principais vantagens e desvantagens da utilização de lipossomas no processo de criopreservação do sêmen suíno através dessa revisão bibliográfica. Pois a utilização do sêmen criopreservado na suinocultura representa 1% apenas, por causa dos danos que ocorrem durante o processo de criopreservação, no qual o sêmen passa por três etapas antes de ocorrer o congelamento, e nelas ocorre a diminuição da temperatura. Dessa forma, ocorre alterações físicas e químicas dos espermatozoides, deixando-os suscetíveis a sérios danos causados pelo frio. Além disso, a redução da temperatura, leva a mudança de fase fluida para a fase gel, ocorrendo uma maior desidratação celular, decorrente da remoção de moléculas polares dos fosfolipídios, acarretando em alterações de funcionalidade. Decorrente disso, busca-se novos crioprotetores, antioxidantes para reduzir/reparar os danos aos espermatozoides de suínos desde do processo de refrigeração até o processo de descongelamento do sêmen congelado. Em vista disso, destaca-se os lipossomas, que são vesículas coloidais compostas de lipídeos anfipáticos que em excesso de água se agregam formando bicamadas lipídicas esféricas com compartimento interno aquoso, podendo carregar antioxidantes, ATP. No entanto, eles podem ser fabricados de diferentes fosfolipídios, desde da gema de ovo até lecitina de soja, e até mesmo o processo de fabricação podem ser diferentes. Nota-se que a utilização de lipossomas no processo de criopreservação de sêmen, é uma alternativa para evitar/reparar os danos que ocorrem aos espermatozoides durante esse processo.
DOCTOR JEKYLL E MISTER HYDE NO CONTEXTO DAS REDES SOCIAIS
Authors: Hack Josias Ricardo
Published: January 2024

O presente ensaio acadêmico trilha caminhos que se aproximam do contexto da motivação, necessidade ou preferência que impulsiona as pessoas no âmbito das interações que ocorrem nas redes sociais. O intuito é provocar reflexões sobre o “médico” e o “monstro” que habitam a Psique de cada pessoa para, então, perceber que o todo está para além de papeis sociais como aqueles traduzidos pelas palavras bom/boa ou mau/má garoto/garota. Para alcançar esse objetivo, a ancoragem metodológica e o embasamento teórico estão principalmente, mas não exclusivamente, na Psicologia da Gestalt e na abordagem gestáltica enunciada por Fritz Perls. O texto expõe certas transposições do campo da Gestalt, bem como de autores como Huxley, Maslow, Rogers e Arnheim, ao contexto das redes sociais, explicitando categorias como: figura/fundo; autorregulação organísmica; holismo; aqui e agora. Nas conclusões, o leitor encontra um exercício prático, com sugestões de perguntas àqueles que gostariam de experienciar estados de equilíbrio consciente entre organismo e meio no contexto das mídias sociais.

Aceh Province, especially Langsa City, has a tourist attraction, namely the Langsa City Forest Park House (RTH). One of the most interesting rides in Langsa City Forest Park is Rumoh Aceh. Based on the results of visits and interviews by Rumoh Aceh officers, the large number of visitors from outside Aceh with one officer sometimes made it difficult for the officers to explain the information available about Rumoh Aceh, especially Acehnese traditional clothes, which were only displayed from a printed image, and provided no other information about these traditional clothes, so that many visitors did not know the diversity of designs and motifs of traditional clothes in Aceh. So, a medium was formed that could display Acehnese traditional clothing. The media uses augmented reality technology so that users can add virtual objects to the real environment to make it easier to use. This application uses the Speed Up Robust Featured (SURF) algorithm, which can process marker tracking quickly so that it can obtain better tracking speed times. The shortest distance from the marker to the camera that can show 3D objects is 20 cm, whereas the farthest distance that cannot show 3D objects is 100 cm. The best distance at which a marker can be detected is 20–80 cm. The best average detection time is 0.00049 s, and the average speed obtained is 1261.22 m/s at a distance of 60 cm. The Speed Up Robust Featured (SURF) algorithm can be used in the Augmented Reality-based Aceh Traditional Clothing Recognition application.

Foot odor or bromhidrosis occurs due to the activity of bacteria that convert leucine in sweat into isovaleric acid which results in unpleasant odors. Honey pineapple skin (Ananas comosus [L.] Merr) is generally waste, whereas honey pineapple skin is known to contain antibacterial compounds. The aim of this study is to determine the potential of honey pineapple peel as an active ingredient in footspray based on the results of phytochemical screening and physical evaluation. Honey pineapple peel was extracted by maceration method using ethanol 70% then phytochemical test. Footspray preparations were made with various extract concentrations of 0%, 25%, 35% and 45% then tested for organoleptic, pH, specific gravity, viscosity, homogeneity, spreadability, and dry time during storage period of 0, 7, 14 and 21 days at room temperature. This study showed that honey pineapple peel extract contained flavonoids, tannins, phenols and alkaloids. The footspray has brown color with honey pineapple scent, pH of 5.71-6.37, specific gravity 1.05-1.09 g/mL, viscosity 7.2-13.2 cP, spreadability 6.67-7.60 cm, and the dry time is 4-5 minutes. Footspray containing honey pineapple peel extract with concentrations of 25%, 35% and 45% has a pH value that is safe for the skin, with good specific gravity, viscosity, homogeneity and spreadability, also stable during storage. Formula 1 (25% extract concentration) tends to be preferred because its texture is soft and not too sticky when applied to the skin when compared with formula 2 and 3.

Published: January 2024

The offence of blasphemy is one that elicits strong feelings. Every time it comes up, it kicks off a highly contentious discussion in Pakistan. Every time a new event takes place in Pakistan, the country's blasphemy laws are thrust into the spotlight. After doing an in-depth investigation into the matter, one discovers that it is a very serious crime, and as a result, strong action needs to be taken against the person responsible for it. The blasphemer is subject to the mandatory death sentence under Islamic law. In a similar way, the legislation of Pakistan calls for the imposition of a fine in addition to the death penalty and life imprisonment. This law has received a great deal of criticism, the most common of which is the assertion that it is used to target and persecute members of minority groups as well as adversaries on the basis of personal grudges.

Authors: Khilji Miftahuddin , Fayaz Muhammad
Published: January 2024

Human rights are closely interlinked with business, and this relationship has extensively been of fundamental emphasis to international law. Multinational corporations (hereinafter, MNCs) and business enterprises, due to their influential nature, often escape weak domestic regulations. This article examines international law governing BHR and explores the reasons for the convergence from voluntary measures to binding law. It elaborates on the role of the International Bill of Rights in addressing human rights protection in the context of business activities. It then delves into UN non-binding measures that have been endorsed in the past, highlighting their significant standards and the ongoing relevant debate. Furthermore, the article examines the progression towards a binding treaty. While acknowledging that a binding treaty may not completely solve the complex issue of BHR violations, it argues that it can encourage states to align their national legislations and strengthen existing non-binding instruments such as ‘National Action Plans’.

Authors: Hussain Fahad , Ziaullah Muhammad , Hayyat Asghar
Published: January 2024

This study explores the interplay between macroeconomic stability, government policies (transparency, anti-monopoly measures, legal frameworks), and financial market development. Drawing data from 125 countries over 11 years (2007-2017) with both parliamentary and presidential systems, various regression models are employed, including Ordinary Least Squares, Random and Fixed Effect Models. Prais-Winsten Regression addresses heteroskedasticity and autocorrelation. Results show a strong positive correlation between macroeconomic stability and financial market development. Transparent governance, anti-monopoly measures, and robust legal frameworks contribute significantly to both stability and financial growth. Transparent governance notably enhances the relationship between macroeconomic stability and financial market development globally and in presidential systems, but not in parliamentary systems. Effective anti-monopoly policies play a notable role in parliamentary systems, while legal frameworks maintain a positive influence across all scenarios. These findings are valuable for policymakers, investors, and researchers, informing their decision-making processes.
