Authors: Theis Ivo Marcos , Ferrera de Lima Jandir , Marques de Oliveira Nilton , Barbosa José Luciano Albino , Randolph Rainer
Published: March 2022

Vivencia-se um quadro global, nacional, regional e local de crises econômica, social, polí­tica e ideológica, esta conjuntura nos leva a pensar um novo olhar sobre o processo de desenvolvimento regional como um novo campo de saber. Assim sendo, este artigo discute o desenvolvimento regional como um possí­vel campo do saber. Utilizou-se de um ferramental metodológico exploratório e à guisa da literatura. Os principais resultados apontam que o debate do desenvolvimento regional como novo campo do saber tem produzido ações e polí­ticas públicas no interior e nas médias cidades brasileiras, fato demonstrado pelo aumento dos cursos de pós-graduação no interior do paí­s. Esse campo de saber não deve ser relegado a um segundo ou terceiro plano, considerando projetos polí­ticos que parecem esquecer a importância da causa do desenvolvimento regional e social para a sociedade brasileira.

O artigo objetiva analisar as relações espaciais que as cidades médias localizadas na região norte do Rio Grande do Sul, estabelecem na Região Funcional 09 de planejamento, que se estende por parte da porção centro-norte do território, a partir dos fluxos de gestão territorial pública e privada, bem como seus reflexos na configuração e funcionamento da rede urbana e na dinâmica urbana e regional. Teoricamente o estudo se ancora nas contribuições de SPOSITO (2007), BELLET e LLOP (2002) e CORRÊA (1996) quanto à centralidade, o papel e as funções das cidades médias na dinâmica regional e sua importância para o desenvolvimento territorial. Utilizou-se dados secundários do Censo Demográfico do IBGE (2000, 2010) e do IEDE-RS (2019) e dos estudos Região de Influência das Cidades (IBGE, 2018) e Gestão do Território (IBGE, 2014), sobre os fluxos entre estabelecimentos de gestão pública e entre os de gestão empresarial. Os resultados demonstram a centralidade e as relações de comando das cidades médias de Passo Fundo e Erechim na rede urbana regional. Evidenciam também um comportamento polinuclear com fluxos monodirecionais para a gestão pública e um comportamento monocêntrico com fluxos multidirecionais para a gestão empresarial.
DESENVOLVIMENTO REGIONAL – A REGIÃO IMPORTA?
Authors: Etges Virginia Elisabeta
Published: March 2022

A dimensão territorial dos processos de desenvolvimento vem sendo reconhecida por pesquisadores de diversas áreas do conhecimento. Nas discussões sobre desenvolvimento regional a relevância do território destaca-se ainda mais, tendo em vista o caráter multiescalar que permeia o tema. O propósito deste artigo é problematizarÂ o significado da dimensão do regional (particular), entendido como mediação entre o global (universal) e o local (singular), nos estudos sobre o desenvolvimento a partir de uma abordagem interpretativa e descritiva, amparada em fontes bibliográficas. Entende-se o território como uma totalidade contraditória, marcada por conflitos e tensões, em que arranjos sócio espaciais particulares dão forma a regiões. A dimensão da particularidade, que se manifesta no território por meio da região, se origina de formações sócio espaciais, que expressam caracterí­sticas polí­ticas, econômicas, sociais, culturais e ambientais também particulares, configuradas ao longo do tempo, nas diversas porções da superfí­cie terrestre.

Published: March 2022

O trabalho dos catadores nas centrais de triagens tem contribuído em ações ambientais, em conjunto com a prefeitura municipal, na medida em que recolhem os resíduos sólidos provenientes de Postos de Entrega Voluntária (PEV) espalhados pelas ruas, instituições de ensino ou departamentos públicos. Tais ações, além de aumentar a vida útil dos aterros sanitários, abastecem as indústrias recicladoras, reinserindo os resíduos sólidos em várias cadeias produtivas. A Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos reconhece somente os catadores de resíduos inseridos em associações, cooperativas ou centrais de triagens exercendo a função de catação, seleção e venda dos materiais oriundos de parceiros públicos e privados. Neste contexto, o objetivo do trabalho é analisar como as parcerias público - privadas podem contribuir para o trabalho dos catadores de uma cooperativa no município de Ribeirão Pires - São Paulo. Para tal, foi realizada uma pesquisa exploratória, com abordagem qualitativa e a estratégia de pesquisa foi o estudo de caso. As entrevistas foram realizadas com um sucateiro inscrito na prefeitura e 3 funcionários que trabalham no estabelecimento, 13 catadores da cooperativa e um representante da prefeitura, responsável pela Secretaria de Meio Ambiente. Os resultados apontaram baixa escolaridade, desemprego, excesso de rejeitos recebidos da coleta municipal, rotatividade de pessoas e falta de apoio dos órgãos públicos em reconhecer o trabalho dos catadores. Como contribuição do trabalho, recomenda-se a participação efetiva do poder público em promovendo campanhas nos bairros, sensibilizando a população a participar da coleta seletiva e valorizar o trabalho dos catadores.

La universidad pública en América latina. Ensayo en celebración del treinta aniversario de la revista Educación Superior y Sociedad (UNESCO-IESALC)
Authors: Torres Carlos Alberto
Published: March 2022

Este ensayo es una memoria histórica y una invitación a la utopía.  Se enfoca en la universidad pública en América Latina bajo el precepto que toda universidad pública es por definición una institución responsable y comprometida con el florecimiento del bien común mediante el ejercicio en su docencia, investigación, extensión y sus multiples servicios orientados por su rol cívico y compromiso en la educación del ciudadano. Si bien muchas universidades privadas podrían y deberían comprometerse con el bien común de la sociedad en su conjunto, no siempre es así.  Busca a su vez promover una postura optimista frente al futuro de la universidad pública y sus posibles contribuciones al bien común.  La universidad pública floreció desde la segunda mitad del siglo pasado luego de la reforma universitaria en Córdoba con la expansión de las matriculas educativas y un incremento del financiamiento presupuestal, que si bien podría haber sido ser más generoso, abrió nuevas lineas de gestión, docencia e investigación universitaria, así como muchas nuevas universidades públicas en areas no tradicionales de los países de la región. La universidad pública sobrevivió las tormentosas épocas del nuevo autoritarismo especialmente en el cono sur y la experiencia del neoliberalismo en sus distintas manifestaciones. Hoy las universidades públicas continúan siendo una institución central en la constitución de la democracia y la ciudadanía.  Considerando su autonomía y autarquía, se pueden constituir en una esfera pública de deliberación que no es controlada por el mercado ni por el estado. En este espíritu, este texto sintetiza algunas de las grandes contribuciones teóricas desarrolladas en el continente, en ocasiones íntimamente vinculadas a las universidades, así como algunos de los dilemas que dichas instituciones confrontan en las dos primeras décadas del nuevo siglo. Frente a los desafios del momento, los universitarios deberían considerar la urgencia de cultivar las simientes de intelectuales públicos para la defensa del bien común y la construcción de nuevas utopías posibles.

Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT: Oral cavity is the main part of the digestive system which is used for the uptake of nutrients/food while microbes can also enter through the oral cavity along the uptake of food. It is seen that the composition of host saliva is very important to build the environment of the oral cavity. When the pH ofsaliva became low then the chances of microbial attacks and their adherence to the surface of teeth to form lesion increases. A complete microbial ecosystem is present in oral cavity and biofilms are produced by the microbes of normal flora to protect host from pathogenic microbes. Most of the microbes that enter oralcavity have ability to cause disease, they incorporates themselves into the normal flora and alter the biofilm community and induce autoimmunity and inflammation into the host. The personnel and materials also play crucial role in activation and inhibition of caries and lesions. Phages are gaining interest in the field of microbiology as they are less toxic and host specific for their action. Dental caries are the indication of chronic infections inside the body. By examine the oral cavity of an individual we can analyze the health status of that individual. Diseases can be controlled through better living conditions and oral hygiene, as much of the developed countries has lower risk of getting caries where as in under-developed and developing countries have greater chance to get the risk.

Authors: Sarwar1 Yasra , Shaheen Samina , Mushtaq Naila , Haque Abdul
Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT: Extended spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) producing bacteria, which are mainly Gram-negative, have emerged as a major threat in recent years as they are resistant to most antimicrobials. This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of ESBL producing Gram-negative bacteria in woundinfections and to map their antimicrobial resistance profile. A total of 100 samples were collected and identified from infected wounds. The Gram-negative bacteria were checked for identification as ESBL producers by using double disc diffusion test. The identified ESBL producers were subjected to PCR basedtyping of ESBLs. Out of 100 collected infected wound samples, 69 Gram-negativebacteria were isolated. The isolated pathogens were: Klebsiella pneumoniae (45%), Escherichia coli(29%), Enterobacter(10%), Proteus spp (9%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa(7%).Twenty eight (40%) isolates were detected as ESBLproducers The ESBL producers were subjected to molecular analysis that showed CTX-M (82%) as most prevalent enzyme type responsible for ESBL production. One E. coli and one Proteus isolate was identified as GES and PER type ESBL producer respectively, where as one of the E. coli isolates was found to harborboth CTX-M and GES type ESBLs. TEM and OXA types were not found in any of the isolates. All ESBL producers showed multidrug resistance for eleven antimicrobials. Klebsiella (40%) was identified as the most prevalent ESBL producer followed by E. coli (35%). Most dominant ESBL type identified by PCR wasCTX-M and Klebseilla pneumoniae (83.3%) and E. coli (100%) were the dominant CTX-M type ESBL producers.

Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to isolate the antibiotic producing actinomycetes strains from the desert soil of the District Bahawalpur, Punjab, Pakistan. A total of twenty one actinomycetes strains were isolated from desert soil and were characterized morphologically, physiologically and biochemically. The16S rRNA sequencing of three isolates (Q2-A, Q2-S and Q2-12) recognized them as different species of the genus Streptomyces. Conventional methods of biological screening including; cross streaked, agar plug and well diffusion assay were used to screen the bioactive actinomycetes strains against MDR bacterialpathogens. The remarkable antimicrobial activity against (multi-drug resistant) MDR pathogens was observed through the well diffusion method by using methanolic crude extracts of isolated actinomycetes. The techniques of TLC and HPLC were used for chemical screening. Overall the desert actinomycetesisolated in this study has the potential of inhibiting the multi-drug resistant pathogenic strains like MRSA, Acinetobacter and Pseudomonas etc. So the extreme desert environment holds the valuable actinomycetes in its habitat which could be valuable in getting new antimicrobial compounds.
