Authors: Llaja José , León Daphne , Falcón Néstor
Published: April 2021

El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar los conocimientos y prácticas asociados al cumplimiento de la Ley N.° 27596, Ley que Regula el Régimen Jurídico de Canes, en pobladores de distritos de Lima Metropolitana. Se diseñó y validó una encuesta que incluyó variables sobre conocimientos y prácticas asociadas a los principales aspectos normativos de la mencionada ley, y se aplicó en espacios públicos a tenedores de canes de 20 distritos de estratos socioeconómicos alto, medio y bajo. La participación en el estudio fue voluntaria, obteniéndose 783 encuestas. El 67.6% conocía que existían razas potencialmente peligrosas (nombraron a Pitbull y Rottweiler) y el 24.9% conocía la existencia de requisitos para su tenencia. El 35.1% afirmó que la castración disminuía la agresividad de los canes y 24.8% opinaron que los canes deben de ser adiestrados en centros especializados. El 95% afirmó que el dueño del can debe asumir los daños que produce su can, el 29.4% sabía que los dueños de canes de razas potencialmente peligrosas deberían tener un seguro contra accidentes y el 58.7% reconocía que la Policía Nacional debería auxiliar a las víctimas de mordedura de canes. El 12.8% reconoció que sus canes habían mordido y el 72.0% asumió los gastos ocasionados por su can. La práctica de recojo de heces y paseo de canes fue mayoritaria, pero la de identificación, registro en la municipalidad y control reproductivo de canes fue limitada. El 14.3% afirmó haber recibido charlas de tenencia responsable de animales de compañía, 16.2% escuchó sobre la Ley N.° 27596 y el 8.4% sabía que existía una Ordenanza Municipal con relación a dicha ley en su distrito. Se hace necesario una mayor difusión de la Ley N.° 27596 y así como una exigencia para su aplicación.

The relative analysis of phase equilibria in the Al-corner of the ternary phase diagrams of Al―Mg―Ge(Si) systems is carried out. Both systems are characterized by the presence of a quasi-binary cross-section of the eutectic type, which is shifted towards Mg-enriched alloys, and sufficiently width range existence of the univariant eutectic transformation L-Al + Mg2Ge(Si). The melting point of quasi-binary eutectic (-Al + Mg2Ge) in the Al―Mg–Ge system and (-Al + Mg2Si) in the Al―Mg―Si is 629 °С and 597 °С, respectively, and the content of the strengthening phase ((Mg2Ge or Mg2Si) in eutectics is 7% (vol.) и 13% (vol.). The properties of non-alloyed alloys with different volume content of eutectic are investigated and the basic compositions of alloys with the optimal strength/ductility ratio for subsequent doping are selected as well. Taking into account the coordinates of the corresponding eutectic transformations, the doping system with the participation of Zn, Cu and other elements is determined. The heat treatment regimes for multicomponent eutectic alloys were selected, to ensure precipitation of Zn(Cu)-nanoparticles that strengthen matrix solid solution. It was shown that according to the level of mechanical properties, these alloys belong to high-strength alloys with property ranges: -Al + Mg2Ge) ― В = 470―590 МPа, 0,2 = 350―520 МPа, = 8,0―15,5%; -Al + Mg2Si) ― В = 400―560 МPа, 0,2 = = 430―520 МPа, = 2,3–-4,5%. Using a complex U-like Nechenji―Kuptsov test, casting properties were determined and it was shown that the fluidity of (-Al + Mg2Si) alloy was 1,3 times higher than that of the AK7ch cast alloy. In terms of the combination of mechanical and casting properties, the new multicomponent eutectic alloys based on the Al―Mg―Ge(Si) ternary systems are superior to the best modern industrial casting aluminum alloys. Keywords: casting aluminum alloys, ternary Al―Mg―Ge(Si) systems, eutectic alloys, alloying, microstructure, mechanical properties, fluidity.

The ligature for finishing of base steel 3H3M3Ftype for obtaining steel 4H3N5M3Ftype with adjustable austenitic transformation is developed in the article. The phase-structural state of steel in the cast state is investigated. The uniform distribution of alloying components on the body of grains is shown. It was found that the investigated hardened steel is softening above the tempering temperature of 620 °C, because the heat resistance of steel decreases (below 40 HRC). It was developed a 3H3M3F base steel ligature for steel production with adjustable austenitic transformation of 4H3N5M3F brand. Ingots (ligature of the Fe―Ni―Mo―V―Mn system) weighing 25 kg were obtained. The ligature was obtained by means of an induction furnace in a casting mold. The temperature of the metal in the furnace before release was 1550 °C. The duration of refining did not exceed 20 minutes. The phase-structural state of cast steel is studied. The uniform distribution of alloying components on the body of grains is shown, as well as the absence of coarse carbide eutectic in metal. This allows to reduce energy-intensive technological operations (diffusion annealing, forging) for the die toolsmanufacture. The presence of martensitic structure in the steel in the cast state of the investigated ingot requires the main thermal operation — annealing. It is established that incomplete annealing at a temperature of 750 ± 20 °C under the condition of partial recrystallization of the investigated steel allows to improve the mechanical processing (cutting) for the production of the die tool. It was determined that the investigated hardened steel hardens above the tempering temperature of 620 °C, because the heat resistance of steel decreases (below 40 HRC). Thus, a die tool of the investigated steel for hot deformation, capable of operating up to the temperature of 620 °C. Keywords: steel, ligature, temperature, structure, hardness.

The temperature, structural, and rate sensitivity of the plasticity characteristics in γ-tita¬nium aluminides with different Al contents, doped with β-phase stabilization elements, are studied. Particular attention is paid to dislocation mechanisms that control the brittle-plastic transition. The main role of grain boundaries in the formation of plasticity characteristics is demonstrated. At low temperatures, the grain boundaries stop propagation of brittle transgranular cracks and confine the development of the plastic zone beyond the boundaries of an individual grain, creating the prerequisites for fracture in the microdeformation level. At elevated temperatures, the boundaries contribute to the formation of dislocations pile-up in the plastic zone with a stress concentration required to set off the Frank-Reed sources and the displacement of the plastic zone beyond the boundaries of an individual grain, changing its configuration and stress distribution and inhibiting the propagation of cracks. Acceleration of rela¬xation processes in the vicinity of the crack’s tip creates the prerequisites for the development of macrodeformation. Local relaxation processes at the crack’s tip contribute to high speed sensitivity of the plasticity characteristics. This effect has important practical consequences, since there is a temperature region near the upper working temperature of γ-TiAl alloys, where the stress value remains high (yield strength σ02 ~700 MPa and ultimate stress σul ~ 1200 MPa at bending tests) regardless of the strain rate, while deformation sharply increases at low speeds. As a result, it is possible to achieve a combination of high strength and ductility during creep tests. In samples tested by tension with low speed (10-5 s-1) the neck formation take a place. Deformation occurs by the dislocation-twinning mechanisms. At small deformations (7%) a twinning mechanism is preferable. Concentration of dislocations sharply increases at large deformations (32%) with formation of dislocation clusters. Stress relaxation on the boundary between γ-phase twins and α2-lamella, occurs by macroscopic shift on α2-lamella. Keywords: γ-titanium-aluminides, structure, strength, plasticity, brittle-ductile transition, temperature and rate sensitivity.

Results of an electron microscopic investigation of particles of lonsdaleite powder with additives of cubic diamond and polycrystalline specimens based on it at Р = 7,7 GPa in the temperature range 1700―1900 °С are presented. Lonsdaleite particles are characterized by a predominantly ternary texture [1120]l of different degree of perfection. Structural mechanisms of transformations in lonsdaleite particles, which cause the formation on nanograined structure in sintering, have been established. The initial stage is the mechanical dispersion of particles and dispersion as a result of plastic faulting deformation, which promotes their fragmentation without breakdown of continuity. The indicated processes lead to the destruction of texture in particles. Beginning from 1700 °С, the lonsdaleitecubic diamond phase transformation with the orientation ratio (111)dII (001)l occurs. It is realized within rods as elements of the substructure of lonsdaleite. At 1900 °С, the size of detected elements of the structure (grains) is 5―15 nm. Beginning from 2000 °С, the self-association of such grains into aggregates with sizes up to 70 nm and the subsequent process of coalescence of grains in aggregates with the formation of the monocrystalline state occur. The next stage of formation of the granular structure is caused by the formation of grain boundaries and development of collective recrystallization. After sintering at Т = 2100 °С, the grain size in specimens does not exceed 100 nm. It has been established that the transformation in lonsdaleite proceeds by structural mechanisms that are characteristic of wurtzite modifications of boron nitride and silicon carbide (strong disordering in the direction of the basal axis, plastic faulting deformation, and formation of multilayer polytypes during the hexagonal-to-cubic phase transformation). Keywords: lonsdaleite, particles, sintering, fragmentation, grains, coalescence.
A historicidade da música, entre regimes e cenas
Authors: Voigt André Fabiano
Published: April 2021

O presente artigo pretende introduzir o tema da historicidade da música, partindo de uma abordagem teórico-metodológica apoiada em aspectos da obra do filósofo francês Jacques Rancière. O debate trazido pelo autor acerca dos três regimes de identificação da arte – ético, representativo e estético – como forma de pensar e demonstrar a historicidade da literatura e do cinema, por exemplo, pode ser aplicado à análise da historicidade da música. Da forma pela qual podemos depreender da obra do autor francês, o aspecto principal a ser considerado para a historicidade de uma expressão musical não é o “tempo”, “época” ou “sociedade” a que uma expressão musical pertenceria – servindo como “contexto” geral de base para identificar sua especificidade histórica – mas sim, a racionalidade presente na forma pela qual se identificam os principais elementos de uma expressão musical. Nessa racionalidade, os princípios empregados na interpretação são fundamentais e, por sua vez, apontam para uma historicidade que compreende o tempo/espaço não como fator determinante de um evento histórico, mas como a convergência de múltiplas temporalidades em coexistência é elemento fundamental para não se compreender a historicidade da música a partir de blocos históricos estáticos. Ao longo do artigo, serão demonstrados breves exemplos de como os três regimes podem ser identificados a amplos debates a respeito da historicidade da música e, ao final, uma cena será construída para que se perceba em um evento inicialmente singular – as resenhas de E. T. A. Hoffmann e de Adolf Bernhard Marx acerca da Quinta e da Nona Sinfonia de Beethoven, respectivamente – a confrontação de dois regimes de historicidade da arte.

Published: April 2021

In order to develop new sustainable and reusable concepts for the degradation of omnipresent industrial plastics, immobilization of (bio)catalysts on nanocarriers offers unique opportunities for selective depolymerization and catalyst recovery. In this study, enzymes (lipase and cutinase) were covalently immobilized on carrier nanoparticles (SiO2and Fe3O4@SiO2) through 3-(aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane and glutaraldehyde linkers forming a stable bond to enzyme molecules. The presence of enzymes on the surface was confirmed by zeta potential and XPS measurements, while their degradation activity and long-term stability of up to 144 h was demonstrated by the conversion of 4-nitrophenyl acetate to 4-nitrophenol. Furthermore, enzymatic decomposition (hydrolysis/oxidation) of electrospun polycaprolactone fiber mats was verified through morphological (SEM) and weight loss studies, which evidently showed a change in the fiber morphology due to enzymatic degradation and accordingly a weight loss.

Published: April 2021

Abstract Some of the changes in physiological indicators during the growth and development of litchi fruit grown in Vietnam were studied. The length and diameter of litchi fruits reached their maximum value at 10 weeks after anthesis. The content of chlorophyll in litchi peel reached its highest value at 6 weeks and decreased rapidly. The content of carotenoids was low in fruit formation and then increased rapidly until fruit ripening. The vitamin C content and reducing sugar content increased continuously and reached a maximum at 10 weeks and then decreased slightly. The starch content and lipid content reached a maximum when the fruit was 8 weeks, the total organic acid content reached a maximum when the fruit was 9 weeks and then gradually decreased. The protein content decreased from fruit formation until fruit ripening. Based on these results, we found that the litchi fruit should be harvested at 10 weeks after anthesis to ensure the nutritional value of the fruit during storage.
Deleuze e a perversão
Authors: Ferreira Filipe
Published: April 2021

Resumo Ainda que de modo introdutório, dizemos que existe um sujeito, o perverso, no interior da filosofia de Deleuze. Mais, que é tornando-se esse sujeito, fazendo do perverso um filósofo, que Deleuze dá início à sua filosofia, em Diferença e repetição e na Lógica do sentido. Ou seja, que existindo um devir-perverso do próprio Deleuze, esse devir condiciona uma abordagem à relação do seu pensamento com o tema da perversão, e isto por ser justamente a criação desse heterónimo, o perverso, que está na origem da sua filosofia.
Pluralismo y absolutismo en la crítica: dialética reflexiva y política democrática a partir de horkheimer y adorno
Authors: Gambarotta Emiliano
Published: April 2021

Resumen En la actualidad, a la teoría crítica se le objeta su pretensión de fundarse normativamente, por imposibilitarle ello acoger el pluralismo, presupuesto del orden democrático. Partiendo de esa objeción, este trabajo busca sostener que en Horkheimer y Adorno hay elementos con los que avanzar en la elaboración de una teoría crítica “postnormativa”. Esto en estrecha conexión con - lo que Habermas llama - el carácter “postmetafísico” de su pensamiento, es decir, su rechazo a todo intento por fundar el edificio cognoscitivo en una instancia incondicionada. Sobre esta base, se propone un abordaje dialéctico del pluralismo, a partir de la relación entre diferencia y semejanza. Vía por la cual tematizar esa configuración de lo social que posibilitaría ser diferente sin temor. Al mismo tiempo que se caracterizan dos lógicas que entrañan la cancelación de dicha configuración de lo social, de su dialéctico acogimiento del pluralismo: la instauración de un absoluto, por un lado, y la apática frialdad, por el otro. Todo esto con vistas a interrogar el modo en que producimos un conocimiento crítico, a la vez que se busca hacer de él una instancia que contribuya a la democratización de la sociedad establecida.
A filosofia da psicologia e o “novo método” filosófico nos escritos tardios de Wittgenstein: uma relação prática e necessária
Authors: Souza Gilberto Ferreira de
Published: April 2021

Resumo O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar os temas do “novo método” filosófico e da “Filosofia da Psicologia”, nos escritos tardios de Ludwig Wittgenstein, como relacionados prática e necessariamente. Para o proposto, a estratégia expositiva segue a seguinte ordem: analisam-se os pressupostos filosóficos relativamente irrefletidos que determinam a visão que o jovem Wittgenstein tinha do “método correto da Filosofia” e da “Filosofia da Psicologia”; interpreta-se a volta filosófica de 1929 como comprometida em apresentar o rosto ainda informe do “novo método” e retomar criticamente os alvos do TLP, sob essa nova perspectiva metodológica; e considera-se a Filosofia da psicologia de Wittgenstein inserida numa perspectiva diferente da perspectiva da ciência psicológica do fim do século XIX e início do século XX, fundamentada em investigações empíricas. Essas observações constituem propriamente uma prática do “novo método” de apresentação perspícua e se caracteriza como um aspecto-chave e necessário, um filtro, para a compreensão das observações do filósofo em torno da psicologia e de seu objetivo em dissolver os problemas metafísicos ali presentes.

Abstract: The northern most portion of Atlantic Forest is currently considered as the most vulnerable and threatened in this ecoregion, while also harboring the ecoregion’s least studied biota. Herein we present results of a herpetofaunistic survey in Refúgio de Vida Silvestre (Wildlife Refuge) Matas de Água Azul (RVSMAA), in the mountain range Serra do Mascarenhas, northeastern state of Pernambuco, Brazil, one of the largest forest remnants in the northern Atlantic Forest. The sampling was carried out in four expeditions using methods of visual searching and pitfall traps. A total of 43 species of amphibians and 40 species of reptiles were registered, including anurans, caecilians, lizards, snakes and chelonians. The richness recorded represented 56% of amphibians and 20% of reptiles registered in the Atlantic Forest north of the São Francisco River. The RVSMAA holds a high diversity of amphibians and reptiles, representing one of the highest levels of richness in the northern Atlantic Forest. The record of seven species included in some of the threatened species lists reinforces the importance of the area for the conservation of the Atlantic Forest herpetofauna and adds relevant information to our knowledge of northern Atlantic Forest biodiversity and aids in its assessment of conservation.
Decentralized food systems and eating in localities: a multi-scale approach
Authors: Maluf Renato S.
Published: April 2021

Abstract: This article describes a systemic approach to analyzing issues related to food and eating, starting with a review of the different meanings and uses of the notions of food systems and agri-food chains. A systemic, multi-scale approach is developed to support the proposed notion of decentralized food systems in an attempt to account for the complementarities, conflicts, and hybridisms that result from the coexistence of distinct food systems in terms of modes of production and distribution, flows of goods, and the shaping of eating habits. Special attention is paid to localities and respective territories as analytical spheres, with the introduction of empirical evidence from two studies conducted in the Brazilian localities of Juazeiro (Bahia) and Chapecó (Santa Catarina).
Framing effects of information on investment risk perception
Authors: Monteiro Beatriz Azevedo , Bressan Aureliano Angel
Published: April 2021

ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to verify whether the framing effects of past performance information affect the risk perception of individuals for fixed-income and variable income fund. We assess whether risk perception varies depending on how information is communicated to investors, considering the relevance of possible framing effects arising from how information is presented in investment funds’ prospectuses and reports. This study is aimed at investors (individual and institutional) and fund industry regulators, highlighting the importance of past performance presentation. This article aims to contribute to the area by investigating how investors are influenced by varying perceptions of risk and return on fixed-income and variable-income assets, depending on information presentation format. The approach used is based on a 2x2 factorial quasi-experiment, in which format (within-subject) and time horizon (between-subjects) effects are tested in a sample of 143 respondents. Our results indicate that, for investment in a variable-income fund, a monthly yield presentation format leads to higher perceived risk, and that a framing emphasizing fund value evolution leads to higher perceived returns. As for investment in a fixed-income fund, the framing that emphasizes fund value leads to both higher perceived risk and higher perceived returns. When comparing the results for the two types of investments, the risk perception was higher for variable-income than for fixed income funds. However, perceived returns were higher for fixed income than for variable-income funds due to the framing effect, although realized returns do not corroborate this perception.

ABSTRACT Objective to translate and culturally adapt the Patient Measure of Safety questionnaire to Brazilian Portuguese. Method a transcultural adaptation study conducted in six stages: translation, synthesis, back-translation, review by experts committee, pre-test, and presentation of the documentation of the entire process to the authors of the instrument. Results in the initial translation and cultural adaptation stage, two versions of the questionnaire were generated. The divergences between both versions and other suggestions were discussed, and the decisions were made by consensus, thus creating a single version. In the back-translation stage, there were no significant differences between the versions and the original instrument. The assessment of the semantic, idiomatic, cultural and conceptual equivalences of the Patient Measure of Safety items was performed by a committee of experts from different Brazilian regions. The results of the content validity index were above 0.9 for most of the items. The pre-test was conducted with 30 patients. The mean time for the application of the questionnaire was 31.9 minutes. In relation to the understanding of the items by the patients, a regular or poor interpretation was identified only for 6 of the 44 items, which were modified. Conclusion the “Questionário de Avaliação da Segurança pelo Paciente”, name given to the translated and transculturally adapted version, resulted from a thoughtful process, presenting consistency in the equivalence of the translation and constituting an applicable instrument understood by the target population.

Published: April 2021

ABSTRACT Objective to investigate the follow-up and characteristics of children and youth with special healthcare needs within Primary Health Care services located in a city in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. Method this qualitative study was supported by the Primary Health Care framework, and interviews were held with 37 health workers from the primary health care units located in the interior of São Paulo. Data were collected from May to December 2018 and treated with inductive thematic analysis. Results from the perspective of the health workers, the characteristics of these children and youth are centered on the dependence of specific care such as to promote psychomotor development, and dependence on technology and pharmacological treatments. They reported the difficulty to access health services while the primary health care services do not implement systematic follow-up. Conclusion these children and youth demand continuous and longitudinal care, which, however, is not provided by primary health care services, considering the discontinuity of care and a lack of networked follow-up. Therefore, health services need to be reorganized to keep up with changes in the child and youth morbidity and mortality to ensure continuous, integral, and networked follow-up to this population.

Abstract: Introduction: Currently, the study of the factors that improve interpersonal relationships in patient care and medical education has been considered relevant and necessary. Understanding what precedes empathy and medical interns’ and young doctors’ attitudes is a relevant topic for health professionals’ education and for their academic and professional performance. Although patients and medical students have indicated that spirituality is an important issue, it is not frequently addressed in medical schools. Objective: This study aims to verify the association between (i) well-being related to spirituality, religiosity and the medical interns’ and residents’ personal beliefs and (ii) empathy and attitudes in the doctor-patient relationship. Methods: This was a quantitative, cross-sectional, observational study. A total of 64 undergraduate students in the last years of medical school and 50 residents answered the following self-administered instruments: WHOQOL-SRPB, Jefferson Scale of Empathy, and Patient-Practitioner Orientation Scale. Descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlation and stepwise linear regressions were used to analyze data. Results: Significant correlations (p<0.05) varying from weak (r=0.10) to moderate (r=0.39) were found. The WHOQOL-SRPB final score affected the global score of empathy (R2 = 0.12; p <0.00; VIF=1.00). The component meaning and purpose in life affected the global score of the patient-centered attitude (R2= 0.14; p <0.00; VIF=1.00). Conclusions: Spirituality, religiosity and personal beliefs are associated with patient-centered attitudes and medical interns’ and residents’ empathy. In general, well-being related to spirituality preceded empathy, and the component meaning and purpose in life preceded patient-centered attitudes. These results imply the need to consider well-being related to spirituality in interns’ and residents’ education for a better doctor-patient relationship.

Abstract: Introduction: The National Curricular Guidelines (NCG) for medical school bring the teaching of Humanities, among them Literature, as a way to overcome the biomedical model. Literature can strengthen compassion directed to the ‘other’. It starts with a curriculum organized by active teaching-learning methodologies. Objective: This study aims to understand the experiences of students from a Medical School in the interior of São Paulo who had contact with literary texts in the beginning of medical school, creating a representative model based on the experience. Method: This is a qualitative research guided by the Grounded Theory. The data collection was carried out through semi-structured interviews with undergraduate students who were randomly chosen from all years of the Medical School. The only inclusion criteria was the participation in groups coordinated by a teacher who had used literature as a teaching strategy. Twelve interviews were carried out, transcribed and codified. The sampling was performed by theoretical saturation. Results: The created categories were: 1. “Identifying the importance of the literature and Arts in Medical School, seeking a rupture from the biomedical model, while improving empathy and the humanization of care”; 2. “Reflecting on the use of artistic tools to learn practical contents in Medicine and to provide psychosocial knowledge”; 3. “Proposing a possible curricular systematization, considering active methodologies and other artistic forms”; 4. “Recalling the tales that are more often associated to the student’s personal interest, which can promote the integration with all the acquired knowledge”. Based on these categories, it was possible to create the representative model of the experience that relays the students’ satisfaction with literature in medical education, enhancing the humanization of care; however, there is a need for curriculum homogenization, aiming at organizing the activity and the learning opportunity for others students. Conclusion: The model comprises the idea that literature enhances the humanization of care and is able to establish a rupture from the biomedical model. The study potential lies in proposing strategies to the community and academic management, aiming to strengthen humanization in curricular perspective of medical training.

Resumo A pasteurização compreende uma etapa de suma importância para eliminação de patógenos no leite e, a fim de manter a inocuidade do alimento, o controle desse processo é fundamental do ponto de vista da segurança alimentar. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar a aplicabilidade e a sensibilidade dos procedimentos de detecção da fosfatase alcalina em leite bovino, bubalino e caprino, experimentalmente pasteurizados e fraudados com alíquotas de leite cru. O leite foi pasteurizado e acrescido de leite cru nas seguintes percentagens: 0,1%; 0,25%; 0,5%; 0,75%; 1%; 3%; 5% e 7%; 10%; 50%, além da adoção dos controles: negativo (leite pasteurizado) e positivo (leite cru). Os métodos utilizados foram: a metodologia oficial da legislação brasileira, tiras colorimétricas e kit de reagentes. Os resultados demonstraram que nos testes realizados com leite bubalino houve uma discreta reação quando utilizados o kit de reagentes e as tiras colorimétricas, ao passo que a metodologia segundo a legislação se apresentou pouco eficiente. Para o leite caprino a enzima não foi detectada nas amostras de leite testadas por nenhuma das metodologias adotadas. Já para o leite bovino o procedimento mais sensível para detectar porções mínimas de leite cru foi o da legislação brasileira. A metodologia da legislação brasileira é a que possui maior sensibilidade para acusar a presença da fosfatase alcalina no leite bovino, e os procedimentos para o controle da pasteurização em leite bovino não possuem a mesma eficácia para os leites bubalino e caprino que, neste caso, precisam ser otimizadas.

Abstract 5'-ribonucleotides are high value-added molecules widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industries because of their bioactive properties. The present work aims to produce a composition of 5’-ribonucleotides using spent brewer’s yeast as cheap source of RNA, and barley malt rootlets as cheap source of 5'-phosphodiesterase (5'-PDE). This is a very promising and innovative strategy because both spent yeast and malt rootles are residues of the brewing process and are closely linked in a cycle that until now is not yet commercially exploited due to lack of studies. Our results showed that extraction of 5’-PDE was mainly influenced by the fineness of the rootlets and amount of extraction solvent (water). The main molecules formed during RNA hydrolysis were 5’-ribonucleotides, which represented 85.86% of the total hydrolyzed molecules. Finally, the results of the proposed approach can generate a new perspective for the brewing industry regarding the management of its wastes, generating from them products of high added value and with a wide range of applications.
Effect of Trust between the Time Pressure and Complexity in Judging and Decision-Making in Auditing
Authors: Santos Cleston Alexandre dos , Cunha Paulo Roberto da
Published: April 2021

ABSTRACT Objective: the study aimed to assess the moderating effect of confidence in the joint influence of time pressure and complexity in judgment and decision-making (JDM) in auditing. The behavioral decision theory (BDT) was used from the perspective of the anchoring heuristic. Methods: as a method, the 2x2x2 experiment was used with a final sample of 126 independent auditors. For analysis, the t-test and multiple linear regressions were used. Results: the findings allow us to infer that factors such as trust, time pressure, and complexity, individually and jointly, influence JDM. The study showed that trust moderates the joint influence of time pressure and complexity on JDM. Time pressure and task complexity negatively influence JDM, but when including trust as a moderating factor, the effect of time pressure and complexity is mitigated, reducing the auditor’s difficulties and uncertainties in JDM. Conclusion: the study contributes to BDT, moving academic research toward understanding the interrelationships between personal, environmental, and task factors. It also contributes by presenting evidence that there is a need for considering and observing the effects generated by the factors altogether, in order to contribute to improving the quality of the audit.

Padê Editorial e Nega Lilu: representatividade feminina no mercado editorial independente
Authors: Pereira Maria do Rosário A. , Coutinho Samara Mirian
Published: April 2021

Resumo Este artigo propõe-se a apresentar algumas considerações sobre duas editoras brasileiras pertencentes ao chamado mercado independente: Padê Editorial, fundada em 2015, e Nega Lilu, em 2013. Primeiramente, destacam-se alguns conceitos importantes para se pensar a cena independente, tais como o de “campo editorial”, de Pierre Bourdieu, e a própria noção de “independência”, ligada à busca por práticas editoriais que priorizam a bibliodiversidade, na busca por alternativas mercadológicas que não coloquem o lucro como principal finalidade. O escopo teórico do artigo está ancorado em John Thompson (2013), Gilles Colleu (2007) e José Muniz Jr. (2016). A seguir, é realizado o estudo de caso das editoras aqui elencadas, ao conferirem visibilidade às mulheres, às mulheres negras e às lésbicas, principalmente, além de estarem situadas fora do eixo Rio de Janeiro-São Paulo, dando visibilidade, ainda, aos autores da região Centro-Oeste, onde estão localizadas. Assim, tais práticas editoriais, que objetivam, inclusive, um apelo estético significativo, acabam por adquirir uma significação política, tornando-se capitais simbólicos primordiais para se pensar (e repensar) o cenário contemporâneo da edição no Brasil.
“Aquilo que nos faz humanos”: cotidiano e resistência feminina afro-brasileira em Reza de mãe, de Allan da Rosa
Authors: Rodrigues Cecília Paiva Ximenes
Published: April 2021

Resumo No artigo “Doente de Brasil” (2019), Eliane Brum expõe como os brasileiros têm adoecido mental e fisicamente diante do crescente autoritarismo político-social, desde 2016, e da sua consolidação na figura do atual presidente. Brum se pergunta como combater esse estado de coisas que adoece indivíduos e coletividade; e a resposta surge nos últimos parágrafos, apontando para a cultura como antídoto. Não uma cultura das elites, mas, sim, “aquilo que nos faz humanos”, utilizando a palavra como mediadora e reamarrando laços para fazer comunidade. Atos diários de resistência, tão recorrentes na história afro-brasileira, compõem uma das temáticas de Reza de mãe (2016), coletânea de contos de Allan da Rosa. Enquanto as histórias gravitam em torno do duro cotidiano dos afro-brasileiros em comunidades de São Paulo, dois contos trabalham ainda a reapropriação feminina do cotidiano, não apenas como modo de resistência, mas também de busca por “aquilo que nos faz humanos”. Diante de tal contexto, este artigo dialoga com a teoria desenvolvida por Michel de Certeau em A invenção do cotidiano (1980) para analisar as personagens femininas afro-brasileiras dos contos “Pode ligar o chuveiro?” e “Reza de mãe”. Ao conferir centralidade a tais personagens, os contos estabelecem um lugar de fala no qual a mulher negra e periférica se delineia agente da (sua) história. São tecidas, por fim, considerações a respeito dos diferentes gêneros literários presentes na coletânea, uma vez que o poema introdutório “Desculpa perguntar” e o apólogo “O barco” funcionam como moldura temática ao abordarem opressão e resistência.
A liquidez da modernidade na narrativa de Sérgio Sant’Anna: representações do desejo e da violência
Authors: Collinge Márcia Denise da Rocha , Figueiredo Elielson
Published: April 2021

Resumo O presente trabalho embarca em um voo ambivalente que transporta representações da modernidade líquida - metáfora da fluidez da “existência” contemporânea, desenvolvida pelo sociólogo Zygmunt Bauman. Inseridos em tal cenário líquido, os relacionamentos humanos ocupam o cerne das atenções na produção artística brasileira contemporânea. O propósito deste artigo é destacar os temas suscitados nos meandros das narrativas de tal modernidade, tais como o desejo, o medo e a violência. Para tanto, apresentar-se-á uma interpretação pautada na visão estético-recepcional de Hans Robert Jauß do conto “O embrulho da carne”, da obra O voo da madrugada (2003), do escritor brasileiro Sérgio Sant’Anna.
Livros para infâncias diversas: onze casos de editoras independentes da Argentina e do Brasil
Authors: Mihal Ivana , Szpilbarg Daniela , Ribeiro Ana Elisa
Published: April 2021

Resumo Neste artigo, com base em uma noção expandida, e aqui ensaiada, de bibliodiversidade, que considera o tema da diversidade sexual, de gênero e as infâncias diversas, analisamos brevemente os projetos de seis editoras independentes argentinas e cinco brasileiras. Estas casas editoriais publicaram obras sobre temáticas ligadas à diversidade, em especial infâncias trans e questões de gênero, dirigidas ao público infantil, decorridos os anos 2000. Com base na análise dos sites e de seus breves catálogos (que ainda se constroem), concluímos que as editoras independentes têm caminhado pari passu com mudanças e conquistas sociais importantes em relação ao direito à diversidade, como demonstram livros aqui tomados como exemplos.
