NATIONAL MECHANISMS OF REGULATION OF CROSS-BORDER COPYRIGHT RELATIONS AIMED AT PROTECTION OF ORPHAN WORKS
Authors: Dmitrieva G. K. , Lutkova O. V.
Published: November 2019

The article has investigated the mechanisms of the national (both legal and non-legal) regulation of orphan works, i.e. works the holder (holders) of rights to which is (are) not identified and/or the location of the rights-holder is not established. Orphan works are supposedly protected by copyright, which means the validity of exclusive rights and the potential need to obtain permission from the copyright holder for any form of using the works under consideration, namely: reproduction including digitization, translation, processing, etc. However, in a situation where the right holder is not determined (is unavailable), the user does not have an objective opportunity to obtain such a permission, and the work actually remains unknown to the society, although it can be of artistic, cultural or historical value. Since the beginning of the new millennium, the national legal systems of a number of States have establish a special regime for the legal protection of orphan works, and about 20 states of the world have developed the foundations of such a regime so far. The article analyzes the regulation of orphan works in several states — in the EU and its member states, Great Britain, the USA, Canada, Korea, Japan, India. The authors have determined the foundations of the substantive and conflict of laws regulation of cross-border relations regulating orphan works. Features of regulation of works with an unidentified author in the era of a network society are highlighted: in particular, the need to digitize orphan works, since many of them are in a single copy on the medium ruined by time, and the fact that the digitized work can instantly spread from databases to other jurisdictions. The authors provide for the forecast of possible ways of evolution of legal regulation of relations in question with the use of mechanisms of national and international law.
Influencia del neoliberalismo en los principios y valores de las elites empresariales de la ciudad de Lima, Perú
Authors: López Lozano Rafael Baldomero
Published: November 2019

El presente artículo expone la influencia del neoliberalismo en la narrativa de nación en empresarios y ejecutivos pertenecientes a diversos gremios empresariales de Lima. Esta la investigación nace de la necesidad de estudiar a los sectores más privilegiados desde la antropología porque ayuda a entender como en las sociedades latinoamericanas se ejerce el poder. De esa forma, la justificación de este estudio es promover una agenda de investigación desde la antropología sobre los sectores que tienen los mayores privilegios en las sociedades latinoamericanas. Este artículo, entonces, se inspira en las investigaciones sobre la “la clase alta argentina” (Gessaghi, 2015) y busca promoverlo dentro de otros países. En el Perú, han sido muy pocos los trabajos desde una perspectiva antropológica han estudiado sobre la elites económicas y este tiene la finalidad de promover un debate que había sido dejado de lado en los últimos 40 años (Cotler, 1978).
Los Grupos de Investigación como organizaciones creadoras de conocimiento
Authors: Ríos-Alvarado Arnaldo
Published: November 2019

Del pensamiento cartesiano  heredamos la división sujeto-objeto que al trasladarla mecánicamente a las “organizaciones”-en nuestro caso “grupos de investigación”- se redujo a considerarlas como mecanismos de procesar información. Bajo esta concepción los grupos de investigación procesan, producen, organizan y legalizan información para adaptarse a los nuevas exigencias del Sistema de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación y se esfuerzan por ser escalonados y/o reconocidos con base en dicha información, porque: o se procesa o se perece.

Published: November 2019

En las últimas décadas la recuperación terciaria, especialmente en la que intervienen productos químicos, ha sido materia de investigación por la academia y la industria, su capacidad para reducir la saturación de petróleo residual (Sor) e incrementar el factor de recobro de un yacimiento, le hacen ser un método altamente atractivo y objeto de inversión. La identificación de campos análogos es un paso importante en la planificación de un proyecto CEOR por sus siglas en inglés (Chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery), especialmente cuando existe a nivel mundial poca información de campos costa afuera que hayan implementado este tipo de métodos. Este artículo propone y evalúa una metodología con la finalidad de establecer si un campo costa afuera ubicado en la cuenca de Santos, Brasil; es un buen candidato o no para ser sometido a inyección de polímeros. La metodología propuesta se define de cuatro pasos: procesamiento de datos recopilados de la búsqueda de información a nivel mundial, selección de campos análogos con base en el screening propuesto por Paris de Ferrer (2001), uso de un modelo estadístico y clasificación de similitud. En primera instancia se realiza un análisis y procesamiento de la base de datos disponible de los campos costa afuera que han implementado la técnica, seguidamente se identifican las principales propiedades de roca y fluido que describen cada campo. Posteriormente, las propiedades del campo objetivo y los encontrados en la base de datos son comparados por medio de un modelo estadístico y finalmente se procede a la clasificación, a través de una ponderación según su analogía respecto al campo objeto de estudio.

Clinton’s texts ‘divided nation’ model is mostly described through metaphor. Applications: This research can be used for universities, teachers, and students. Novelty/Originality: In this research, the model of Conceptual Blending in Metaphors in the 2016 Pre-Election Campaign is presented in a comprehensive and complete manner.
Preparation of anti-bacterial biocomposite nanofibers fabricated by electrospinning method
Authors: KESMEZ Ömer
Published: November 2019

Developing technology and increasing the number
of living creatures on earth increase the demand for biomaterials each passing
day. Recently, biocomposite and biodegradable biomaterials have begun to attract
attention in many areas of usage. Electrospinning technique is preferred as a
quite consolidated technique in the production of outstanding polymer and/or
nanofiber matrixes. However, obtained biocomposite nanofibers can cause
microbiological infections during or after their usage. Therefore, it is very
important that such materials have controlled antibacterial properties. In this
study, Hydroxyapatite (HAp), known as biocompatible and bioactive, was firstly
synthesized by wet precipitation method. Molecular structure of obtained HAp
particles was researched by Fourier
Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), its crystal
structure was analyzed by X-ray Diffraction analysis (XRD) and its morphology
was investigated by Scanning Electron
Microscopy (SEM). HAp particles were combined with a
mixture of biodegradable polylactic
acid (or polylactide, PLA) and polycaprolactone (PCL)
and biocomposite nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning method by loading
chitosan and /or silver-based inorganic antimicrobial agent in different
proportions to this composite structure. Molecular structure of PLA-PCL polymer
matrix was investigated by FT-IR analysis. The morphology of the obtained
biocomposite nanofibers was examined by SEM. The anti-bacterial efficiency of biocomposite
nanofibers containing chitosan and/or Ag+ in different proportions
was investigated against Escherichia coli
(Gram-negative) and Staphylococcus aureus
(Gram-positive) bacteria. Biocomposite nanofiber samples containing 1% chitosan
and 0.25% Ag+ were found to have ≥4.78 log reduction and ≥99.99%
reduction in the bacterial population against the tested bacterial species and
showed strong antibacterial properties. It was also observed that the
combination of Ag+ and chitosan may show synergistic effects. The
results of the study confirm the great potential of biodegradable,
biocompatible and bioactive fibers for antibacterial application.

Published: November 2019

Necessity demands observation and assessment of growth development of Mango ginger plants (with paucity of or no publication about its agronomy and pathology) as prerequisite to understanding their nature and avoid incorrect plant disease diagnosis (by taking for abnormal condition that which is normal). Hence, this study observed the morphological development of Mango ginger (Curcuma amada Roxb.) plants, a rare crop, and assessed for its plant height and number of leaves in the years 2016 and 2017. The rhizomes, the most economic part of the plant, was observed to emerge from corm and appeared finger-like with dome ends. Mango ginger leaves averaged 9 per plant stand and showed curling nastic movement. Sunlight and temperature had positive and significant effect on the daily curling and uncurling of leaves. Also, height parameter of Mango ginger plants was inconsistent when measured from soil level to tip of youngest leaf/apical bud; but when measured from soil level to peak/top (highest point attained at natural position above soil level) irrespective of what leaf made the upper boundary, plants increased in height with time. Significant difference existed in 2016 between the two different upper boundaries of plant height. This study: provide basic understanding of the morphology of Mango ginger plant; and gives original and significant insight on the nastic movement of its leaves, for better understanding of its fundamental botany, which may form bases for its disease identification and further investigation as an under-cultivated and underutilized crop (for colouring and flavouring drinks, and as: food preservative; medicine for cure of bacterial and fungal infection; anti-inflammatory and antipyretic; hypotriglyceridemic and hypoglycemic; anti-cancer with fertility potential)

The utilization and conservation traditional rice genotypes have attracted global attention. Optimization of DNA isolation protocol for genetic characterization of plants is a necessary and primary step. Over the recent years, next generation sequencing and microarray technologies have revolutionized scientific research, with their applications to high-throughput analysis of biological systems. Isolation of high quantities of pure, intact, double stranded, highly concentrated DNA is prerequisite for successful and reliable large-scale genotyping analysis. Therefore, standardization of DNA isolation is a basic requirement. Here we employed three methods of DNA isolation namely, Dellaporta, Hi-purA and modified CTAB techniques for isolation of genomic DNA from 25 indigenous rice genotypes. From the results, it was found that genomic DNA isolated by modified CTAB method to be the most appropriate for extracting high quality and maximum quantity DNA suitable for genotyping. The quality and quantity of the differentially extracted DNA was subsequently assessed by spectrophotometric measurements and gel electrophoresis.

Published: November 2019

The present investigation was undertaken to work out the economic performance and optimum cropping pattern based on alternative price scenarios in Arid-Western Plain Zone of Rajasthan state. In the present study, the unit-level cost of cultivation data of various crops for the triennium ending year 2013-14 which were collected from “Comprehensive Scheme to Study the Cost of Cultivation of Principal Crops in Rajasthan state. The performance of different crops was assessed by calculating net returns under three alternative price scenarios i.e. (i) Market prices (MP) (ii) Economic prices (EP) and (iii) Net income based on natural resource valuation technique (NRV). This study has considered subsidy as a cost to society. Similarly green house gas emissions from the crops have been taken as cost to the society and nitrogen fixation by leguminous crops have been taken as gain to the society. Results from the study shows that groundnut-barley combination of crop sequence was found the most remunerative in economic return generated over the year of `59418 per hectare followed by groundnut-vegetables (`53930/ha) and groundnut-gram (`52879/ha) combinations. Net gain to the farmers based on the alternative price scenarios viz. market, economic and natural resource valuation prices were estimated as `114.38 lakh, `114.45 lakh and `138.82 lakh, respectively. The overall gain to society has increased at economic prices by `49.39 lakh whereas it was decreased by `93.24 lakh at natural resource valuation due to the lack of cultivation of legume crops. The optimal plan is suggested that more area under cultivation of legume crops like groundnut, clusterbean and gram because of they are less water intensive and more environment friendly and thus have a positive impact on natural resource valuation with the existing water availability.
Manipulation of Source-Sink Relationship in Pertinence to Better Fruit Quality and Yield in Fruit Crops: A Review
Authors: Pawar Ravina , Rana Vishal S
Published: November 2019

Profuse flowering and fruiting creates high demand for a limited source of carbohydrates, which affects fruit set and development. These plenty number of flowers and fruits must be reduced to allow the trees to produce fruit that meets market expectations for size, colour and quality. The concept of source-sink relationship and the regulation of carbon partitioning in plants is useful for better understanding of crop physiology and the influence of yield limiting factors on crop production. This relationship between source leaves and the various sink organs not only affects fruit production in the current season, but also the long term performance due to perennial nature of fruit trees. Modelling early season whole-tree carbohydrate supply and demand has greatly improved the understanding of response of trees to manipulation strategies relating source-sink alliance. Various strategies has been adopted to manipulate source-sink relationship like flower bud inhibition, flower thinning, fruitlet thinning, defoliation, girdling, pruning, application of hormones and nutrients etc. Thus, balance between vegetative and reproductive growth is an important aspect for improvement in yield and quality of fruit crops.

Published: November 2019

The study determined the physical properties of ﬁnger millet (FM) (Eluesine coracana) grains and the functional properties of FM ﬂour. Physical properties such as colour attributes, sample weight, bulk density, true density, porosity, surface area, sample volume, aspect ratio, sphericity, dimensional properties and moisture content of grain cultivars were determined. Water absorption capacity (WAC), bulk density (BD), dispersibility, viscosity and micro-structure of FM ﬂours were also evaluated. Data collected were analyzed using SPSS statistical software version 23.0. Results showed that milky cream cultivar was signiﬁcantly higher (p less than 0.05) than other samples in sample weight, bulk density, true density, aspect ratio and sphericity. However, pearl millet, used as a control, was signiﬁcantly diﬀerent from FM ﬂour on all dimensional properties. Moisture content of milky cream showed higher signiﬁcant diﬀerence for both grains and ﬂours as compared to brown and black grain/ﬂours. Milky cream cultivar was signiﬁcantly diﬀerent in L , b , C , H values, WAC, BD and dispersibility for both FM grains and ﬂours. Data showed that brown ﬂour was signiﬁcantly higher in viscosity than in milky and black ﬂours. Microstructure results revealed that starch granules of raw FM ﬂours had oval/spherical and smooth surface. The study is important for agricultural and food engineers, designers, scientists and processors in the design of equipment for FM grain processing. Results are likely to be useful in assessing the quality of grains used to fortify FM ﬂour.

This article aims to study the effect of Asparagus racemosus root powder on milk yield and milk composition. The experiment was performed to determine the milk yield and milk protein, fat, total milk solid, and milk acidity after using Asparagus racemosus as a food supplement. The animals were selected based on purposive sampling to select lactate buffalo to avoid or reduced the error. During the experiment, animals fed in three phases; control, treatment, and the residual phase. In control phase animal diet normal ration, whereas in the treatment phase, a buffalo was diet 120 gram of Asparagus racemosus root powder in addition to its normal diet per buffalo per day. While in the residual phase, the animal was diet only normal ration. Each phase has been 5 days. The Milk collected from lactating buffalo in three phases; control, treatment, and the residual period. Each period has been five day. We also measured milk yield per day per buffalo. About 50 ml of milk was collected from each five buffalo every morning for 15 days. The data was analyzed through one way ANOVA and T-test using the procedure of statistical software. The result indicates that the diet was statistically significant effecting on milk yield at 5% (0.0196), protein at 1% (0.0113) and fat at 1% (0.0007) while the insignificant effect on milk acidity p >30 (0.3909) and total solid p >80 (0.8904). Therefore, feeding Asparagus racemosus, positively affects milk yield and milk protein and milk fat content.

Published: November 2019

A field experiment was established to study the impact of foliage fertilization of microelements (Fe and Mo) on lentil at the Agricultural Research Farm Mingora, Swat, Pakistan in 2016-17. All the treatments were assigned in random block design. The results showed that iron (Fe) and molybdenum (Mo) significantly improved the yield and quality of lentil crop. Based on the obtained results, the majority of the parameters increased with the combined application of Fe and Mo. The combined application of Fe and Mo at 500 and 100 g ha-1 produced the maximum grain yield (1361 kg ha-1), biological yield (3126 kg ha-1), 1000 grain weight (54.62 g), protein percent (30 %), N uptake (65.32 kg ha-1), Fe (48.33 mg/g) and Mo (5.07 mg/g) concentration. Results further revealed that Mo at the rate of 100 g ha-1 significantly enhanced the number of nodules (9.13 plant-1) and active nodules (8.03plant-1). These results suggested that Fe and Mo in optimal amount solely or as a blend considerably improve the growth, yield and quality of lentil crop and is therefore recommended for the better production of lentil crop in the agro-climatic condition of Swat valley.

Published: November 2019

Despite the importance of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) in human nutrition, its production in developing countries is far below consumption rates. A study was established to understand the yield performance and physiological response of common bean under three farmers’ field in the Limpopo Province. The results revealed significant variation in grain yield and biomass between the locations. Physiological parameters such as the Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Leaf Area Index (LAI), SPAD value and leaf gas exchanges were strongly influenced by the location, the crop growth stage and crop management. Dry bean crop performance was significantly lower at Masemola. Grain yield at Masemola was 30% less than that achieved at Dalmada and Mokopane. NDVI and LAI were also consistently lower at Masemola when compared to the other locations. This study revealed that poor yields by emerging farmers in dry areas are due to poor agronomic and irrigation management.

White clover (Trifolim repens L.) is one of the most nutritious and widely grown forage legumes in the world. It is also a common component of cool season perennial grass pastures in Indian Mid-Himalayas. Being an important component of temperate grassland, diminutive efforts have been made in genetic improvement of white clover through comprehensive evaluation of germplasm collection. In present study, total 258 germplasm accessions of white clover were characterized under field conditions for the genotypic variation in twenty five agro-morphological traits. Characterized germplasm showed sufficient variation among the populations for qualitative traits, biomass yield and seed yield as revealed by range and coefficient of variation. Association analysis showed that dry matter yield was positively correlated with seed yield components traits. Principal component analysis revealed that first seven principal components accounted more than 60% of total variation. Out of 258, ten high biomass producing populations were selected and further evaluated for biomass yield, crude protein and seed yield potential. Average biomass yield of three populations viz., RRCPL-13 (15.74 q/ha/year), RRCPL-19 (17.25 q/ha/year), RRCPL-27 (18.79 q/ha/year) were better than the check variety Palampur Composite-1 (14.99 q/ha/year). Results of this study will help in designing future strategy in white clover improvement program for the development of new varieties.
Also, the seeds extracted from Legon 18 had higher viability than BAG 14/001 at all maturity stages.

In this study, fifteen dwarf field pea genotypes were evaluated at six diverse locations under three Agro-climatic zones viz., Central zone, North West peninsular zone and North east peninsular zone for the purpose of identifying stable genotypes through deploying the additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) model. The uniqueness of AMMI biplot is to provide comprehensive solution regarding multi-environment evaluation of genotype. In addition to identification of stable genotypes, this approach facilitates effective selection of test environment and allows optimum resource allocation in future testing programme. In the present study from the AMMI biplot and the ASV AMMI stability value (ASV), it was detected that genotypes 6 (Pant-P-345), 12 (KPF-14-50) and 4 (KPMR-940) were the stable genotypes amid the tested genotypes. These identified genotypes with wide adaptation would be valuable treasure troves for the breeder for utilizing as a parent in field pea breeding programme of India.

An experiment was conducted to study the effect of presowing seed treatment, sowing windows and seasons on seed yield and quality of greengram by sowing the treated seeds on two dates each in summer and kharif. The treatments viz., 8 hours of water soaking; priming with 100 ppm MnSO4, 1% neem leaf extract, 5 ppm GA3, 1% KCl; coating with 10 ml linseed oil, 50 gm rhizobium, 4 g Trichoderma per kg seed; combination of neem leaf extract priming and rhizobium coating, combination of linseed oil and rhizobium coating. Seed quality and yield was highly influenced by seed treatments, dates and seasons; treatment and seasonal effects being greater than sowing dates. GA3, KCl and MnSO4 primed seed found most effective for enhancing the seed quality and yield. Summer season was better than kharif season for both seed quality and yield

Authors: Mohan S , Sheeba A , Kalaimagal T
Published: November 2019

The present study was conducted to evaluate 44 greengram genotypes using correlation, path analysis, principal component analysis and cluster analysis based on ten morphological traits. Basic descriptive statistics showed considerable variance for all the traits. Association analysis indicated that, number of pods per plant, number of pod clusters per plant, number of seeds per pod and number of branches per plant showed significant positive association with seed yield per plant. Path analysis specified that the highest positive direct effect on single plant yield was exerted by days to 50 % flowering, number of pods per plant and number of seeds per pod. Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed 79.12 per cent of the variability by the first five components. PC1 was associated mainly with seed yield per plant, number of pod clusters per plant, number of pods per plant and number of branches per plant. The Wards method of hierarchical cluster analysis grouped the accessions into six major clusters. The clustering of greengram genotypes based on different morphological traits would be useful to identify the promising genotypes for effective utilization in future breeding programmes..

Thirty two isolates of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceris (Foc) were collected from six districts of Andhra Pradesh (A.P) and three districts of Telangana. Based on wilting % in pathogenicity test, the isolates were grouped into three categories. All the isolates differed in cultural characters like mycelium colour, margin, texture, pigmentation and morphological characters like macro conidia, micro conidia length, width and chlamydospores diameter. There was no correlation between cultural and morphological characters of Foc isolates except three isolates (Foc-6, Foc-12 and Foc-17). These three isolates have white mycelium, cream colour pigmentation, slow radial growth and highly pathogenic (100% wilt incidence) in nature. Sporulation ability and radial growth of all isolates were also measured. All the isolates exhibited genetic variation in RAPD banding pattern and three major clusters (I, II and III) were found in the dendrogram. Maximum genetic similarity of 80.3% was observed between Foc-27 and Foc-28 isolates.

Published: November 2019

The usage of emerging social and digital applications is growing rapidly among the current generation of students and academics, and researchers started exploring their effectiveness in enhancing students’ creativity. However, examining the most effective criteria for evaluating digital-media-enhanced creativity in art and design still needs further exploration. This pilot study seeks to develop a framework to assess students’ creativity and another framework to assess the effectiveness of multimedia-based teaching approaches in art and design educational contexts. Sixteen design instructors participated in a survey, which aimed to identify their experiences with multimedia-based pedagogy as a potentially effective approach in fostering students’ creativity as well as educators’ innovation in teaching. The paper identifies and ranks the criteria, which they thought are effective in assessing digitally-stimulated creativity in each field of graphic design. The ultimate goal is to provide educators with a set of evaluation criteria to guide the appropriate teaching and assessment of digital creativity.

Keywords: Creativity, multimedia, pedagogy, innovation, digital creativity.

Bu araştırma, aile içi şiddet ile akademik başarı durumu arasındaki ilişkiyi konu edinmektedir. Araştırma, Diyarbakır’ın merkez içesi olan Bağlar’da bulunan ortaöğretim okullarına devam eden 9. sınıf öğrencilerini kapsamaktadır. Çalışma toplam 1750 öğrenciyi kapsamaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri, öğrencilere uygulanan anket formu ile şiddet ölçeğinden[1]  elde edilmiştir. Araştırmada; ebeveynlerin eğitim düzeyleri ve sahip oldukları meslekler ile ailenin gelir düzeyi gibi faktörler aile içi şiddetin görülmesinde birer etken oldukları, şiddete maruz kalan çocukların akademik yönünden önemli bir ölçüt olan TEOG sınavından düşük puan aldıkları dolayısıyla İmam Hatip Lisesi veya Meslek Lisesi gibi düşük puanla girilen okullara devam ettikleri, Fen Lisesine devam eden öğrencilerin ailede yaşanan şiddet türlerine en az maruz kalan kategoriyi teşkil ettiği, Anadolu Lisesine devam eden öğrencilerin İmam Hatip Lisesi ve Meslek Lisesine devam eden öğrencilerden daha az şiddete maruz kaldıkları tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, aile içi şiddet ile öğrencilerin akademik başarıları arasında bir ilişki saptanmıştır.
Bir Aydınlanma Şahsiyeti ve Amerikan Karakterinin İnşacısı Olarak Benjamin Franklin
Authors: KÖKTAŞ Mümin
Published: November 2019

Benjamin Franklin Amerika’nın kuruluş döneminin en önde gelen düşünür ve siyaset insanlarından birisidir. Amerika tarihi bakımından neredeyse mitik bir statüye sahiptir. Boston’da doğmuş ve sadece iki yıl eğitim almış birisi olmasına rağmen yaşamının sonunda en ünlü Amerikalı olması nedeniyle Amerikan rüyasının bir temsilcisi olarak görülmüştür. Ne yazık ki Franklin çalışmaları uzun yıllar boyunca bu mitsel bakış açısıyla sürdürülmüştür. Ayrıca Franklin entelektüel olarak bazı aşırı genellemelerin hedefi olmuştur. Bazen kapitalizmin ve bencil biriktirme arzusunun sözcüsü bazen de ruhsuz ve mekanik bir dünyanın temsilcisi olarak görülmüştür. Buna rağmen, Amerika’nın kurucu babalarından birisi olarak Franklin’in Amerika’nın kuruluşuna katkısı ve Aydınlanma hareketi içerisindeki yeri daha önemli konulardır. Franklin üzerine gerçekleştirelecek çalışmalar ayrıca Aydınlanma düşüncesinin farklı veçhelerinin anlaşılması açısından Aydınlanma çalışmalarını derinleştirecektir. Amerika, Aydınlanmanın teorik ve felsefi boyutlarında vaatkar olmasa dahi Aydınlanmanın pratiği açısından oldukça önemli bir deneyimdir. Bu deneyimin görüleceği temel iki boyut ise ahlak felsefesi ve siyasal düşünce olacaktır. Bu amaçla, bu makalede Franklin’in Aydınlanma düşüncesindeki yeri ve Amerika’nın kuruluşundaki katkısı tartışılacaktır.

L’objectif de l’étude, menée d’août 2014 à décembre 2015, était de tester la résistance aux antibiotiques de 52 isolats de Salmonella gallinarum obtenus à partir d’élevages avicoles modernes situés en zones périurbaines du district de Bamako (n = 27), et des villes de Ségou (n = 16) et Sikasso (n = 9). Les taux de résistance moyens obtenus ont été de 98,08 % à l’érythromycine, 94,23 % à la colistine, 90,38 % à la streptomycine, 67,31 % à la kanamycine, 65,38 % à la fluméquine, 63,46 % à la doxycycline, 59,61 % à la tétracycline et 21,15 % à la gentamicine. Tous les isolats de salmonelles issus des élevages du district de Bamako se sont avérés résistants à la tétracycline, à la doxycycline et à l’érythromycine. De même, une résistance à l’érythromycine, à la tétracycline, à la colistine et à la streptomycine a été mise en évidence pour tous les isolats issus des élevages du site de Sikasso. Les résultats ont montré un développement de la résistance de la plupart des souches de salmonelles isolées à la majorité des antibiotiques usuels et dans une moindre mesure à la gentamicine.

Authors: Pachalski Lissa , Nornberg Marta
Published: November 2019

Este artigo problematiza o discurso que dicotomiza a relação teoria e prática na profissão docente. Analisa um diário de registros de estágio nos anos iniciais a partir dos conceitos de conhecimento do conteúdo e conhecimento pedagógico do conteúdo, balizadores da argumentação. Argumenta em torno da possível e necessária dissolução da divisão e consequente hierarquização entre teoria e prática no exercício da profissão docente. Sustenta a teoria e a prática como dimensões relacionadas e não-divisíveis da docência e da ação pedagógica.
