Borde costero resiliente: aprendizaje post-27F para el norte grande de Chile
Authors: Intveen Pérez Hans P.
Published: January 2017

Resumen: Con posterioridad al terremoto y tsunami de 2010 en Chile, se ha evidenciado que los espacios residuales que el crecimiento urbano no planificado de las ciudades ha dejado en el paisaje costero, se han transformado en la primera línea de defensa contra los eventos naturales catastróficos, al tener una relación directa con las unidades de paisaje donde se produce la mayor destrucción. El proceso de reconstrucción, posterior al desastre, ha permitido incorporar nuevos conceptos a la planificación del paisaje costero, lo que ha generado una experiencia y un caudal de conocimiento que permiten extraer principios de diseño urbano que pueden replicarse en otras geografías vulnerables, como el caso del Norte Grande en Chile. La investigación plantea una sistematización de principios generales de ordenamiento espacial para espacios costeros en el contexto de paisaje nortino, de una manera que permita no solo la resistencia al evento, sino su eficiente reconstrucción y rápida adaptación a circunstancias adversas.

___Palabras clave: Mitigación, resiliencia, borde costero, paisaje urbano.

___Abstract: Following the earthquake and tsunami of 2010 in Chile, it has become evident that the residual spaces that unplanned urban growth of the cities has left in the coastal landscape have become the first line of defense against catastrophic natural events, since they have a direct relationship with the landscape units where the greatest destruction occurs. The post-disaster reconstruction process has allowed the incorporation of new concepts into coastal landscape planning, which has generated an experience and a wealth of knowledge that allow the extraction of principles of urban design that can be replicated in other vulnerable geographies, such as the case of the Great North in Chile. The research proposes a systematization of general spatial planning principles for coastal spaces in the context of the northern landscape, in a way that allows not only the resistance to the event, but also its efficient reconstruction and rapid adaptation to adverse circumstances.

Published: January 2017

The colonoscopy is an indispensable diagnostic tool in the evaluation of chronic diarrhea when other methods fail to detect its etiology. Considering the anatomic conformation of the carnivore colon, this examination may be performed by means of two techniques. The use of a rigid colonoscope (human retosigmoidoscope) has generated the term rigid colonoscopy in contrast to the use of a flexible endoscope. Most of the colonic diseases have a diffuse character, and may be detected using a rigid instrument like this that is capable to reach the entire descending colon until its junction with the transverse. When comparing the methods, rigid colonoscopy has lower cost and a faster and easier application. This paper describes the colonoscopy and histopathological findings in fifteen dogs with diarrhea that underwent rigid colonoscopy
Inclusão de ramos e frutos de jurema preta e farelo de palma forrageira na dieta de Ovinos Santa Inês - Revisão

Published: January 2017

The sheep industry is an important activity in several continents, adapting itself to a wide variety of climas. O Brazilian Northeast is the region with the largest herd sheep in Brazil, but most animals have no breed standard is defined and created extensively and without proper feed management practices, and reproductive health. Moreover, the abundance of forage in four to five months of the wet season contrasts with the lack of quality food in the pasture during hot, dry season, which stretches for seven to eight months of the year and is an obstacle to the viability of livestock in the region. The forage plants native to the savanna are essential for the sheep industry in the Northeast, since they are adapted to the harsh climate of the region and participate in the diet of animals on pasture throughout the year. However, there is the possibility to collect and store some of this grass in full vegetation period for providing the animals at the time of food shortages, in the form of hay or silage. The jurema preta is a caatinga woody legume that is highly resistant to drought, is one of the first species to colonize degraded areas, and their fine branches and seeds are eaten fresh or naturally fenadas when they ripen and fall to the ground during the dry season, providing a food enjoyed by ruminants. The palm is a cactus forage adapted to hot, dry conditions in northeastern Brazil, supporting long periods of drought due to their physiology characterized by a photosynthetic process that results in huge water savings. Has high digestibility and low fiber content, despite the drawback of low dry matter and protein. It can be also used in the form of bran, which facilitates their storage and mixing in feed. Given the above, it is necessary to study the potential of these alternative foods in the diet of sheep, with the aim of improving and making the system sustainable production of sheep breeding and farming in the Northeast of Brazil.

Twelve treatments arranged in a factorial way 2 x 3 x 2, were randomized in 3 replications to study the inicial growth of labe-labe. The treatments studied were: seed treatment (with and without sandpapes numer 2); times of soaking (1, 8 and 16 hours) and nitrogen levels (0 and 100 kg of N/ha). The nitrogen was apllied 16 days after the sowing. The results obtained suggested that the treatments of the seeds followed by soaking for 1 hour or only the soaking by 8 hours could result in a more rapidly germination. Inicial growth of lab lab was vigorous independently of treatments. Average height of plants did not vary with the treatments. Distribution and dry matter production of the aerial part, after 61 days of sowing, were very uniform in all treatments. The application of nitrogen, 16 days after sowing, decreased significantly the dry weight of nodules.

The objective of this review is to address the metabolism of nitrogen (N), the use of different sources of N protein and non-protein in diets of dairy cows and discuss their effects on intake, digestibility, ruminal environment, productive performance, milk composition and especially on the N use efficiency (NUE). Ruminants have low NUE. This low efficiency has implications not only in economic and productive efficiency, but also in the emission of contaminants into the environment. Several factors influence the nitrogen utilization by ruminants, including the source of nitrogen and its concentration in the diet, the protein:energy rate, mineral supplementation, the total ration and diet adjustment period. NUE can be directly improved, understanding and modifying key processes regulating the NUE, including capture of N in the rumen, protein degradation, digestion and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and use of amino acids (AA). This understanding of the processes involving the use of N by the ruminant, enables the development of strategies to manipulate or regulate the supply of AA for microorganisms to the animal and the mammary gland, ensuring greater efficiency, reconciled to a lower excretion nitrogen to the environment.

The effect of thermal environment on the physiological responses of dairy cattle has been extensively studied as a way of characterizing situations of thermal stress caused by tension exerted by the environment to which animals are placed. The thermal requirements of animals vary with the stage of development is that, during the breast-feeding, the calves have a poorly developed thermoregulatory capacity and facilities planning is essential, because they facilitate the management and protecting the animals from adverse weather conditions. Therefore, aimed of this review address the main aspects of thermoregulation in cattle in tropical environment with emphasis on respiratory rate, rectal temperature and body surface. The surface temperature, because it is directly exposed to the environment, varies considerably, which accompany the variations of the meteorological components of the environment in which they live. Since the rectal temperature is a late response to heat stress, with little or no variation. Unlike the rectal temperature, respiratory rate is the first visible sign that shows a heat stress situation. So, to avoid thermal situations that prevent animals to demonstrate all their potential, and avoid damage to the health and reproduction, must provide a microclimate characterized by low temperatures and without exposure to direct sunlight.
Avaliação da qualidade de sementes de Labe labe
Authors: Bruno Borges Deminicis
Published: January 2017

The Dolichos lablab is a perennial legume potentially, but grew as an annual or biannual in Brazil, and it has qualities which favor its use in animal feed, as the high protein content and high forage production. However, to achieve good results, it is essential that the seeds used are of good quality. Several tests are used to determine the physiological seed quality, among them stand out the tetrazolium test, because it is fast and efficient. Thus, this review aimed to address some aspects of the use of vigor tests in the evaluation of physiology quality of Dolichos lablab seeds.
Criptosporidiose em ruminantes: revisão
Authors: Fernanda Rosalinski Moraes
Published: January 2017

Cryptosporidiosis is one of the main causes of diarrhea and low growth rate in calves, lambs and kids during the first month of age. Besides of the losses in livestock, the infection by Cryptosporidium parvum is also an important zoonosis, and cattle are considered major reservoirs of human infection in developed countries. Despite the importance of this disease, its diagnosis is not routine in most farms in Brazil. This is due to the small size of the oocysts of C. parvum, which hinders the view in routine coproparasitologic examinations. This manuscript aims to review the main aspects of cryptosporidiosis in ruminants.

The aim of this work was to evaluate the health status and environmental conditions of the colony of BALB/c mice maintained in an Animal Facility of the Lauro de Souza Lima Institute. Parasitological and microbiological tests with enriched and selective culture media were used to identify zoonotic and potentially pathogenic agents from skin, hair, respiratory and enteric tracts of the animals and fungal flora of the environment. This study proposed to verify colonization of Mycoplasma sp. and Bordetella sp. in trachea, fungi in skin and hair, as well as perform parasitological examination, Salmonella spp. and enterobacteria isolation from cecum of sampled animals. In addition serum of animals were tested against different viral and bacterial antigens and against Toxoplasma gondii antigen.For environmental monitoring samples were collected from different locations. After macro and microculture, the fungi identified were Cladosporium sp. Acremonium sp., Aspergillus sp., Curvularia sp. and Trichophyton mentagrophytes. Mycological examination of the skin was negative for 100% of the samples. There was no growth of respiratory pathogens or Salmonella spp. The bacteria isolated in the present study consist of the normal enteric microbiota of animals in conventional conditions: Escherichia coli, Enterobacter aerogenes, Enterobacter cloacae, Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella spp. Providencia stuart and Pseudomonas putida. The parasitological examination showed the presence of Strongyloides stercoralis, Syphacia obvelata, Aspiculuris tetraptera and Ancylostoma sp. Serology resulted negative for all tested antigens. The techniques used in this work showed to be valuable for diagnostic purpose, to assess the health of laboratory animals, as well as for qualitative analysis of environmental fungal microbiota, thus it should be implemented as a routine in the animal house.

Authors: Costa Newton
Published: January 2017

The effects of arbuscular mycorrhiza inoculation - Glomus mossaea, G. fasciculatum, G. macrocarpum, G. etunicatum, Acaulospora muricata and Scutellospora heterogama, on dry matter (DM) yield, and chemical composition of Sesbania sesban were evaluated under greenhouse conditions. The most effectives fungi on DM yields were S. heterogama and A. muricata, which provided increases of 155 and 140%, in relation to the control. Root colonization was affected by arbuscular mycorrhiza inoculation. Plants inoculated with G. fasciculatum, S. heterogama and G. mossaea had the highest levels of root colonization. The highest N contents were obtained with G. mossaea and G. etunicatum, while plants inoculated with S. heterogama and A. muricata exhibited higher N uptake. The highest P contents were recorded with the inoculation of G. mossaea and A. muricata, however the higher uptake were obtained with S. heterogama and A. muricata. This study showed that several arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi were effective in increasing DM yield, and N and P uptake of S. sesban. The most efficient species were S. heterogama and A. muricata.

Countless studies attest to the negative effects of high temperatures on milk production. So, many environmental modifications can be introduced in order to decrease the temperature of the animals and, consequently, reduce heat stress, helping so, in the comfort of dairy cows confined. The aim of this review was to approach the effects of shading and sprinkling water on milk production and physiological responses in dairy cows. Several methods have been employed, such as natural or artificial shading, ventilation, cooling air from the application of water droplets, water spray on the animal accompanied by ventilation and air conditioning. In intensive production systems, coupled with the shading, the use of evaporative cooling systems in proportion to the animals an environment with warmer temperatures, avoiding situations of heat stress and increasing milk production. In pastures, the providing shade, either natural or artificial, it is necessary for dairy cows in order to reduce the excess heat received by direct solar radiation, especially during the hottest hours of the day and in regions near the line of Ecuador.

Some of the factors which may affect firm profitability include organizational culture, investment in information technology, firm size, barriers to entry, and the financial leverage of the firm. This paper contributes to the understanding of firm profitability by examining the determinants of firm profitability in Pakistan over the period 2003-2007. A sample of 19 organizations in Pakistan was selected for an in-depth analysis. The data were collected through multiple visits to the selected sites, direct observation, questionnaires, and structured interviews with the senior and middle level business executives. A total of 95 middle and senior level managers were requested to fill out questionnaires covering different dimensions of culture mentioned in the Organizational Culture Inventory. Additionally, in order to get an insight into the deep rooted basic assumptions, detailed interviews were conducted with 80 middle and senior level managers. The data regarding investment in IT, firm size, ratio of fixed asset to total assets, and capital-asset ratio were derived from the firms’ annual reports for the period 2003-2007. The regression results show that culture, investment in information technology, firm size, capital intensity and financial leverage have significant impact on firm profitability.
