Published: August 2016

Micro, Small, and Medium-Sized Enteprises (UMKM) have a significant potential in contribution to local economic development in Indonesia. Within the development of economic sector and a dynamic population in Kecamatan Ciparay, UMKM of manufacturing industry is increasing as well, especially the small and home industries. Nevertheless, the industries still not put into practice optimally yet and give less contribution to the local economy. This article aims to analyze the development of the small and home industries in Kecamatan Ciparay with an analysis approach of DPSIR (Driver, Pressure, State, Impact and Response). The study applied descriptive research method. Questionnaire, interview and field observation were conducted in the study area. The results found that the development of the small and home industries is driven by some driver factors such as industrialization, socio-economic dynamic as well as local policy and strategy aspects. DPSIR model approach has identified some driver factors and the impacts of the small and home industries in a comprehensive system. A considerable attention of local government and decision makers becomes crutial focal point in order to support the UMKM in Kecamatan Ciparay.

Published: August 2016

The association of Zika virus (ZIKV) infections with microcephaly and neurological diseases has highlighted an emerging public health concern. Here, we report the crystal structure of the full‐length ZIKV nonstructural protein 1 (NS1), a major host‐interaction molecule that functions in flaviviral replication, pathogenesis, and immune evasion. Of note, a long intertwined loop is observed in the wing domain of ZIKV NS1, and forms a hydrophobic “spike”, which can contribute to cellular membrane association. For different flaviviruses, the amino acid sequences of the “spike” are variable but their common characteristic is either hydrophobic or positively charged, which is a beneficial feature for membrane binding. Comparative studies with West Nile and Dengue virus NS1 structures reveal conserved features, but diversified electrostatic characteristics on both inner and outer faces. Our results suggest different mechanisms of flavivirus pathogenesis and should be considered during the development of diagnostic tools.

Due to increased sensitivity, the expression of circulating nucleotides is rapidly gaining popularity in cancer diagnosis. Whole blood mRNA has been used in studies on a number of cancers, most notably two separate studies that used whole blood mRNA to define non-overlapping signatures of prostate cancer that has become castration independent. Prostate cancer is known to rely on androgens for initial growth, and there is increasing evidence on the importance of the androgen axis in advanced disease. Using whole blood mRNA samples from patients with prostate cancer, we have identified the four-gene panel ofFAM129A,MME,KRT7andSOD2in circulating mRNA that are differentially expressed in a discovery cohort of metastatic samples. Validation of these genes at the mRNA and protein level was undertaken in additional cohorts defined by risk of relapse following surgery and hormone status. All the four genes were downregulated at the mRNA level in the circulation and in primary tissue, but this was not always reflected in tissue protein expression.MMEdemonstrated significant differences in the hormone cohorts, whereasFAM129Ais downregulated at the mRNA level but is raised at the protein level in tumours. Using published ChIP-seq data, we have demonstrated that this may be due to AR binding at theFAM129AandMMEloci in multiple cell lines. These data suggest that whole blood mRNA of androgen-regulated genes has the potential to be used for diagnosis and monitoring of prostate cancer.
WOMEN IN CANCER THEMATIC REVIEW: Ovarian cancer–peritoneal cell interactions promote extracellular matrix processing
Authors: Ricciardelli C , Lokman N A , Ween M P , Oehler M K
Published: August 2016

Ovarian cancer has a distinct tendency for metastasising via shedding of cancerous cells into the peritoneal cavity and implanting onto the peritoneum that lines the pelvic organs. Once ovarian cancer cells adhere to the peritoneal cells, they migrate through the peritoneal layer and invade the local organs. Alterations in the extracellular environment are critical for tumour initiation, progression and intra-peritoneal dissemination. To increase our understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in ovarian cancer metastasis and to identify novel therapeutic targets, we recently studied the interaction of ovarian cancer and peritoneal cells using a proteomic approach. We identified several extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins including, fibronectin, TGFBI, periostin, annexin A2 and PAI-1 that were processed as a result of the ovarian cancer–peritoneal cell interaction. This review focuses on the functional role of these proteins in ovarian cancer metastasis. Our findings together with published literature support the notion that ECM processing via the plasminogen–plasmin pathway promotes the colonisation and attachment of ovarian cancer cells to the peritoneum and actively contributes to the early steps of ovarian cancer metastasis.
Recurrent Isolated Neonatal Hemolytic Anemia: Think About Glutathione Synthetase Deficiency

Published: August 2016

Hemolytic anemia (HA) of the newborn should be considered in cases of rapidly developing, severe, or persistent hyperbilirubinemia. Several causes of corpuscular hemolysis have been described, among which red blood cell enzyme defects are of particular concern. We report a rare case of red blood cell enzyme defect in a male infant, who presented during his first months of life with recurrent and isolated neonatal hemolysis. All main causes were ruled out. At 6.5 months of age, the patient presented with gastroenteritis requiring hospitalization; fortuitously, urine organic acid chromatography revealed a large peak of 5-oxoproline. Before the association between HA and 5-oxoprolinuria was noted, glutathione synthetase deficiency was suspected and confirmed by a low glutathione synthetase concentration and a collapse of glutathione synthetase activity in erythrocytes. Moreover, molecular diagnosis revealed 2 mutations in the glutathione synthetase gene: a previously reported missense mutation (c.[656A>G]; p.[Asp219Gly]) and a mutation not yet described in the binding site of the enzyme (c.[902T>C]; p.[Leu301Pro]). However, 15 days later, a control sample revealed no signs of 5-oxoprolinuria and the clinical history discovered administration of acetaminophen in the 48 hours before hospitalization. Thus, in this patient, acetaminophen exposure allowed the diagnosis of a mild form of glutathione synthetase deficiency, characterized by isolated HA. Early diagnosis is important because treatment with bicarbonate, vitamins C and E, and elimination of trigger factors are recommended to improve long-term outcomes. Glutathione synthetase deficiency should be screened for in cases of unexplained newborn HA.

Calidad educativa en un centro de educación parvularia utilizando el catálogo de criterios de calidad
Authors: Soto Muñoz María Eugenia , Rodríguez Navarrete Claudia
Published: August 2016

La calidad de la educación que se imparte en Chile y en otros países de América Latina representa una situación preocupante, ya que se ha demostrado que los procesos educativos de calidad, sobre todo en la primera infancia, impactan positivamente en el futuro desarrollo escolar de la niñez, relevando la importancia del nivel pre-escolar para superar las desventajas iniciales de los niños provenientes de sectores vulnerables. El artículo reporta un estudio no experimental de tipo mixto, basado en la Investigación Acción Colaborativa en un Jardín Infantil específico de la provincia de Concepción, Chile. La intervención se llevó cabo siguiendo los pasos propuestos por el Catálogo de Criterios de Calidad. Además, para constatar incremento de la calidad, se realizó una evaluación inicial y otra posterior a la intervención utilizando los instrumentos internacionales estandarizados ITERS-R y ECERS-R; también, se utiliza el test chileno TEVI-R para medir el vocabulario pasivo de los niños. A su vez, se utilizó Focus Group para recoger la opinión y percepciones del equipo técnico pedagógico del Jardín, respecto a la intervención realizada. En coherencia con el propósito del estudio, se pudo establecer que hubo avances en el desarrollo de la calidad educativa del jardín, pero no es posible asegurar que ella se mantenga a largo plazo, pues ello implica una internalización de procesos de reflexión y autocrítica en el equipo técnico pedagógico, lo que requiere mayor tiempo. Con esta experiencia se espera aportar evidencia para mejorar procesos educativos en Educación Parvularia.
A case study in the acquisition of three types of morphemes in english by a bilingual child
Authors: Quesada Pacheco Allen
Published: August 2016

This case study looks closely at the bilingual first language acquisition of a Costa Rican child who was raised through OPOL (One Parent One Language) and Minority Language at Home (mL@H).The subject, Itzel, was raised in a Spanish-speaking environment and her dad is the only person that has spoken to her in English since her birth up to the present. It is explained throughout the study that the use of several native English resources complemented the acquisition of the English language. For this study, a descriptive method was used. The Wug test was applied to the subject to determine the level of acquisition of the plural morphemes, third person singular morphemes, and past tense morphemes of regular verbs. Finally a comparison of 2011 Wug test and 2014 test is made to determine mastery of these morphemes in a period of three (3) years. The results proved that the subject did acquire naturally the studied morphemes and the Wug test shows some aspects of the interlanguage development related to the acquisition of morphemes done by the subject of the study.

Application of dispersive liquid—liquid microextraction for the analysis of organophosphorus pesticides in Hawthorn (Crataegus pinnatifida var. major) juice samples
Authors: Ren Q. , Xia T.
Published: August 2016

Dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (DLLME) coupled with gas chromatography equipped with flame photometric detection (GC—FPD) is introduced to extract and determine the fifteen organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs) in hawthorn (Crataegus pinnatifida var. major) juice samples. Some parameters affecting the DLLME efficiency, such as the type and volume of extraction and dispersive solvents, extraction time, and salt concentration, were studied and optimized. The optimized extraction and dispersive solvents are trichloroethane and acetonitrile, respectively. Good linearity was ranged from 0.5 to 100 ng mL−1 with correlation coefficients from 0.9991 to 0.9999. The limits of quantification (LOQs) varied from 0.15 to 0.3 ng mL−1, and the limits of detections (LODs) ranged from 0.05 to 0.1 ng mL−1. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) varied from 1.0% to 2.8% (n = 6) with the relative recoveries in the range of 85.6–119.1%. The method was successfully applied in the determination of OPPs in ten commercial hawthorn juice samples. The chlorpyrifos was detected in one sample.
Women in Australian Pentecostalism: Leadership, Submission, and Feminism in Hillsong Church
Authors: Miller Elizabeth
Published: August 2016

Women were highly active participants in, and often leaders of, early Pentecostal churches. While Pentecostalism remains attractive to women who continue to be numerically overrepresented among the lay population of churches, rates of female leadership have declined. This article explores the gendered dimensions of Australian Pentecostalism using Hillsong Church, and particularly its Colour Conferences, as a case study. It considers the historic position of women in the Pentecostal movement and in Australian Pentecostal and Charismatic Churches—with an emphasis on women as leaders—before exploring contemporary gender dynamics in these churches, the ways they have been articulated by church leaders, both male and female, and Pentecostal responses to feminism. It argues that while Pentecostal and Charismatic women in Australia have experienced broad social changes that have transformed their lives and the ways they participate in wider society over the past century, their roles within their churches have not similarly changed. A theology of submission constrains the power Pentecostal women have and the roles they play both in their church and in society.

Digitizing, Organizing and Managing an Audio-Visual Archive
Authors: Cooper David , Sapiro Ian , Anderson Laura , Hall Sarah
Published: August 2016

Between 2005 and 2013, film-music composer Trevor Jones donated around 1000 items relating to his film and television scores to the University of Leeds. The collection includes audio and video materials alongside associated paperwork, and some musical sketches and scores. In order to undertake research into the Trevor Jones Archive, the entire collection required digitization and cataloguing, both to facilitate navigation of the materials, and enable understanding of the relationships between them and the processes that they document. This paper considers the practicalities of working with the archive including matters relating to the digitization of a range of analogue and paper-based items, the creation of appropriate metadata and repository structures, and the prioritization of some parts of the collection over others. It is hoped that the lessons learned through this activity highlight some of the issues and considerations of working with archival audio-visual materials, and provide a roadmap for those working with similar collections.
Industry and Craftsmanship in Popular Cinema
Authors: Bratus Alessandro
Published: August 2016

Born in Sofia in 1937, Vassil Kojucharov studied Composition in Moscow with Aram Khachaturian during the late 1950s. At the end of the decade, he moved to Italy where he spent the rest of his professional life as a composer, director and teacher. Even though Kojucharov was not a “big name” in Italian film music production, surveying his personal collection allows us to catch a glimpse of his work on more than fifty films in different popular genres (spaghetti-western, crime, horror, spy, commedia sexy). Scores, notebooks and tapes provide the starting point to explore his approach to film music, in a negotiation between aesthetic, cultural and industrial issues. These documents provide a fresh perspective on the fragmented, often artisanal, production processes of Italian popular cinema during those decades in which industrial and technological modes of production, such as the modular conception of the soundtrack as a set of independent and reusable elements, self-borrowing, and editing of pre-recorded sounds served the representational conventions of each cinematic genre.
Barry Gray Archive
Authors: Evans François
Published: August 2016

The Barry Gray Archive was established in Ashford, Kent, England in 2005, to preserve and to help make available artefacts of the varied work of British film and television composer Barry Gray (1908-1984) – one of the first musicians to use electronic musical instruments in commercial, audio-visual media. This article comprises a description of the rationale behind the archive, issues faced, motivations, methods adopted for digital preservation, copyright matters engaged with and an assessment of the surprising ways in which the archive is informing British scholarship. Aspects of how an archive can be structured as an electronic hub so as to enable appropriate perpetuation are presented, together with case studies to illustrate its continuing impact to date.
Archetypes in the Archive

Published: August 2016

Composer Dario Marianelli began the process of scoring Goodbye Bafana (2007), a film that tells the story of Nelson Mandela’s prison life through the eyes of his white gaoler, with several days’ immersion in what he describes as “old field recordings” of southern African music in the British Library Sound Archive. This paper considers Marianelli’s pursuit of a “pure” South African music for the film and closely examines the resulting soundtrack. The asymmetries of marked and unmarked musics, the writing-out of local musical elements in favour of a more generic orchestral film music style, and the signifying properties of reverberation are all explored. I also consider the consequences of a film’s weaknesses, aesthetic and/or political, for its music, and conclude with a constructive example of film music’s dramatic power in transnational cross-cultural music production contexts.

Authors: Patankar Anuya , Kheur Mohit , Kheur Supriya , Lakha Tabrez , Burhanpurwala Murtuza
Published: August 2016

This in vitro study evaluated the effect of different levels of preparation of an implant abutment on its fracture resistance. The study evaluated abutments that incorporated a platform switch (Myriad Plus Abutments, Morse Taper Connection) and Standard abutments (BioHorizons Standard Abutment, BioHorizons Inc). Each abutment was connected to an appropriate implant and mounted in a self-cured resin base. Based on the abutment preparation depths, 3 groups were created for each abutment type: as manufactured, abutment prepared 1 mm apical to the original margin, and abutment prepared 1.5 mm to the original margin. All the abutments were prepared in a standardized manner to incorporate a 0.5 mm chamfer margin uniformly. All the abutments were torqued to 30 Ncm on their respective implants. They were then subjected to loading until failure in a universal testing machine. Abutments with no preparation showed the maximum resistance to fracture for both groups. As the preparation depth increased, the fracture resistance decreased. The fracture resistance of implant abutment junction decreases as the preparation depth increases.

The relative permeability of the electret S  10 000, several orders of magnitude greater than the permeability of conventional insulation materials, i < 10, resulting current in the wire acquires properties bias current. The essence of innovation is to replace the source of of magnetic induction flow that pervades the core of the coil. According to the theory of electrodynamics, current bias, in contrast to conduction current, generated no movement of charge along the wire, but the change of the charge in the local volume.Equivalence bias current and conduction current is manifested in the possibility of forming a magnetic field. The flow through magnetic induction coil core regardless of the current it generates, creates voltage at its ends.The paper also shows the numeric characteristics that determine the effective frequency range, specified the reason why electric a wire with і < 10 can not generate magnetic flux through the core and serve as a passive reactive component.
Robust Face Recognition Against Soft-errors Using a Cross-layer Approach
Authors: Jeong Gu-Min , Park Chang-Woo , Choi Sang-Il , Lee Kyoungwoo , Dutt Nikil
Published: August 2016

Recently, soft-errors, temporary bit toggles in memory systems, have become increasingly important. Although soft-errors are not critical to the stability of recognition systems or multimedia systems, they can significantly degrade the system performance. Considering these facts, in this paper, we propose a novel method for robust face recognition against soft-errors using a cross layer approach. To attenuate the effect of soft-errors in the face recognition system, they are detected in the embedded system layer by using a parity bit checker and compensated in the application layer by using a mean face. We present the soft-error detection module for face recognition and the compensation module based on the mean face of the facial images. Simulation results show that the proposed system effectively compensates for the performance degradation due to soft errors and improves the performance by 2.11 % in case of the Yale database and by 10.43 % in case of the ORL database on average as compared to that with the soft-errors induced.
Efficient Historical Query in HBase for Spatio-Temporal Decision Support
Authors: Chen Xiaoying , Zhang Chong , Ge Bin , Xiao Weidong
Published: August 2016

Comparing to last decade, technologies to gather spatio-temporal data are more and more developed and easy to use or deploy, thus tens of billions, even trillions of sensed data are accumulated, which poses a challenge to spatio-temporal Decision Support System (stDSS). Traditional database hardly supports such huge volume, and tends to bring performance bottleneck to the analysis platform. Hence in this paper, we argue to use NoSQL database, HBase, to replace traditional back-end storage system. Under such context, the well-studied spatio-temporal querying techniques in traditional database should be shifted to HBase system parallel. However, this problem is not solved well in HBase, as many previous works tackle the problem only by designing schema, i.e., designing row key and column key formation for HBase, which we don’t believe is an effective solution. In this paper, we address this problem from nature level of HBase, and propose an index structure as a built-in component for HBase. STEHIX (Spatio-TEmporal Hbase IndeX) is adapted to two-level architecture of HBase and suitable for HBase to process spatio-temporal queries. It is composed of index in the meta table (the first level) and region index (the second level) for indexing inner structure of HBase regions. Base on this structure, three queries, range query, kNN query and GNN query are solved by proposing algorithms, respectively. For achieving load balancing and scalable kNN query, two optimizations are also presented. We implement STEHIX and conduct experiments on real dataset, and the results show our design outperforms a previous work in many aspects.

Published: August 2016

Abstract An increasing number of papers on statistical process control (SPC) has emerged in the last fifty years, especially in the last fifteen years. This may be attributed to the increased global competitiveness generated by innovation and the continuous improvement of products and processes. In this sense, SPC has a fundamentally important role in quality and production systems. The research in this paper considers the context of technological improvement and innovation of products and processes to increase corporate competitiveness. There are several other statistical technics and tools for assisting continuous improvement and innovation of products and processes but, despite the limitations in their use in the improvement projects, there is growing concern about the use of SPC. A gap between the SPC technics taught in engineering courses and their practical applications to industrial problems is observed in empirical research; thus, it is important to understand what has been done and identify the trends in SPC research. The bibliometric study in this paper is proposed in this direction and uses the Web of Science (WoS) database. Data analysis indicates that there was a growth rate of more than 90% in the number of publications on SPC after 1990. Our results reveal the countries where these publications have come from, the authors with the highest number of papers and their networks. Main sources of publications are also identified; it is observed that the publications of SPC papers are concentrated in some of the international research journals, not necessarily those with the major high-impact factors. Furthermore, the papers are focused on industrial engineering, operations research and management science fields. The most common term found in the papers was cumulative sum control charts, but new topics have emerged and have been researched in the past ten years, such as multivariate methods for process monitoring and nonparametric methods.

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the scientific evidence on aerosols generated during cleaning activities of health products in the Central Service Department (CSD) and the impact of the negative pressure of the ambient air in the cleaning area to control the dispersion of aerosols to adjacent areas. Method: for this literature systematic review the following searches were done: search guidelines, manuals or national and international technical standards given by experts; search in the portal and databases PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL and Web of Science; and a manual search of scientific articles. Results: the five technical documents reviewed recommend that the CSD cleaning area should have a negative differential ambient air pressure, but scientific articles on the impact of this intervention were not found. The four articles included talked about aerosols formed after the use of a ultrasonic cleaner (an increased in the contamination especially during use) and pressurized water jet (formation of smaller aerosols 5μm). In a study, the aerosols formed from contaminated the hot tap water with Legionella pneumophila were evaluated. Conclusions: there is evidence of aerosol formation during cleanup activities in CSD. Studies on occupational diseases of respiratory origin of workers who work in CSD should be performed.

Abstract Introduction Different rates of resorption are mediated by osteoclasts that may be affected by bisphosphonates during bone graft repair. Bisphosphonates are drugs that act as inhibitors of bone resorption. Objective The aim of the present study was to evaluate the rate of resorption of skullcap grafts in rabbits with and without the use of alendronate sodium. Material and method Thirty two New Zealand rabbits were divided into two groups (control group and alendronate group) and divided again into four periods (7, 14, 30 and 60 days). The control group did not receive alendronate, while animals of the experimental group received 4 mg of alendronate sodium weekly after the surgery. An 8 mm diameter bone block was removed from the parietal bone and fixed by screws to the contralateral parietal bone. During the periods of 7, 14, 30 and 60 days, the animals had undergone euthanasia and samples were removed for further analysis. Morphological and histomorphometric tests were used to compare graft thicknesses and to evaluate the newly formed bone at the interface between the graft and receptor site. The Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests were used for statistical analyses. Result All grafts healed and integrated uneventfully and no statistically significant differences in resorption rates or bone deposition were detected after the final incorporation of the graft in both groups. Conclusion Alendronate Sodium did not decrease the bone graft resorption rates, but there was a tendency for better results in the control group regarding the resorption and neoformation in autogenous calvarial bone grafts in rabbits.

Abstract Introduction Levobupivacaine (LEVO) can replace analgesia because it exhibits low toxicity and causes minor vasoconstriction, enabling its use in patients in whom vasoconstrictors are contraindicated. Objective We aimed to evaluate the effects of LEVO in isolated rat superior mesenteric artery by using the vascular reactivity technique and compare its effect to that of lidocaine. Material and method Arterial rings were obtained from the mesenteric artery of male Wistar rats and kept in organ baths. For recording isometric contractions, each ring was suspended by cotton threads from a force transducer, which was connected to a data acquisition system. Result Both lidocaine and LEVO did not show a vasoconstrictor effect on the basal tone of the arterial rings with functional endothelium. However, when the rings were pre-contracted with phenylephrine, both drugs were able to induce concentration-dependent vasodilatation. The vasodilator effect induced by LEVO did not change after removal of the endothelium, or with the addition of tetraethylammonium (1 mM), a non-selective K+ channel blocker. In the rings without functional endothelium, which were pre-contracted with depolarizing Tyrode’s solution (KCl 80 mM), LEVO-induced vasodilatation was not significantly different from that observed in the rings pre-contracted with phenylephrine. Moreover, it did not show a significant additional vasodilator effect compared to the maximal vasodilator effect of nifedipine. Conclusion This study demonstrated that LEVO produces a vasodilator effect in the rat superior mesenteric artery in an endothelium-independent manner. This effect seems to be mediated via Ca2+ channel blockade in the vascular smooth muscle cells.

ABSTRACT: The assemblage of granivorous birds in the irrigated paddy-fields was evaluated over an annual cultivation cycle by means of 12 monthly samplings undertaken in each of 3 areas (of a total of 90 ha) in Itajaí, Santa Catarina, between August 2010 and July 2011. Of a total of 10 species, distributed among 5 families and 2 orders, Sturnella superciliaris (43.88%) and Sicalis flaveola (36.88%) were the most abundant. The regular species contributed with 45.17%, followed by the occasional (30.37%) and the seasonal (24.43%). Only the abundance of S. flaveola presented significant differences between the months of sampling (F11-33 = 7.1290, p < 0.01) as a result of the lower values recorded in December and January. The diversity and evenness indices showed similar fluctuation, with mean values ranging between 0.47 ± 1.37 and 0.29 ± 0.83, respectively. The average losses per hectare, due to the action of S. superciliaris and S. flaveola , were 8.35 ± 1.66 and 6.10 ± 1.48 kg of rice, equivalent to R$ 49.07 in the 3 areas monitored, giving a total average annual loss of 82.9 kg for the 90 ha of rice monitored.

RESUMO: O objetivo deste trabalho foi mostrar a presença da Salmonella na cadeia de produção de suínos e o risco em potencial para a saúde pública. As bactérias do gênero Salmonella são importantes agentes causadores de doenças transmitidas por alimentos (DTAs) em humanos. Estima-se que cerca de 10% do total de casos de salmonelose sejam veiculados por produtos de origem suína. A transmissão ao homem pode ocorrer pelo contato direto com animais, tanto nas granjas quanto nos frigoríficos, mas principalmente devido à ingestão de alimentos contaminados. A infecção de lotes suínos pode ocorrer em qualquer fase zootécnica e o principal ciclo de infecção é fecal-oral, podendo a bactéria se alojar nos linfonodos e ser excretada quando o animal for submetido a um fator estressante, como o transporte e/ou o reagrupamento. O uso inadequado de antimicrobianos também gera cepas multirresistentes. Os equipamentos e utensílios, de uma forma geral, estão relacionados à contaminação cruzada, agindo como veículos de propagação do micro-organismo dentro da indústria. Para garantir a segurança alimentar do consumidor, conclui-se que cuidados como limpeza, desinfecção e biossegurança devem se iniciar na granja de criação, com a utilização correta de antibióticos, passando pelo transporte evitando a superlotação e com medidas higiênico-sanitárias rigorosas durante o abate desses animais.
