Locating Potential Sites for Artificial Recharge Using Geospatial Technology in the Pulampatty Watershed, South India
Authors: Janarthanan G. , Thirukumaran V.
Published: June 2024

The current study uses geospatial technologies to identify prospective artificial recharge sites in the Pulampatty sub-basin, Dharmapuri District in South India. Due to the population explosion, the district’s demand for fresh water is rising quickly. In addition, the district occasionally faces water stress situations due to a lack of surface water supplies and seasonal precipitation. To combat this, we can choose artificial groundwater replenishment over preexisting sources. To do this, we must determine the groundwater level in the targeted area at various points, while government agencies’ statistical data on the area’s average rainfall and precipitation levels provide us with an overview of the groundwater table. In general, the study area has a moderate groundwater table with fluctuations brought on by insufficient rainfall and excessive groundwater use. This will have an impact on the region’s agriculture and domestic needs, as well as the quality of the groundwater, which can be assessed by collecting water samples and analyzing the chemical content of the groundwater using a variety of chemical tests in a water quality analysis laboratory, then comparing the results to the corresponding optimal levels. To meet the region’s needs for drinking water, it is essential to manage the groundwater resources that are already available. Using a weighted linear combination method, important thematic layers such as lineament, slope, drainage, land use/land cover, lithology, geomorphology, and soil properties were merged. The properties of rocks were determined by conducting a geophysical survey using a resistivity meter, meantime the geology, geomorphology and lineament were determined by the GIS tool from the satellite data and maps. The study’s findings indicate that about 25% of the research region has high to moderate groundwater recharge potential. However, groundwater exploitation must be done in conjunction with artificial recharging to ensure the long-term sustainability of water supplies.

Ecological management of characteristics of formation waters from flooded deposits
Authors: Mammadova Nazile I.
Published: June 2024

In the oil and gas industry, the volume of formation water, which is a mixture of various organic and inorganic compounds, is the most important waste stream due to its environmental impact. Discharge of formation water, which varies in quality and quantity across horizons, into the natural environment causes serious environmental concerns. The various methods applied in cleaning these waters are not considered effective in removing oil and oil products, as well as dissolved elements, from the water. Additionally, many chemical processes with high cleanup costs result in hazardous wastes that need to be disposed of. The activity of oil and gas extraction enterprises causes changes in the components of natural complexes and ecosystems, as well as the formation of natural and man-made ecosystems. Examining the environmental aspects of the impact of oil and gas field technogenesis on the transformation of environmental components allows us to assess the impact of such systems on the environment, expand and deepen our understanding of the regulation of the results of such an impact. If measures for the neutralization of increasingly dangerous oil pollution are not taken, then the area of soil and water pollution expands. Thus, the manifestation of the consequences of the negative impact occurs long after the pollutant enters the environment. Currently, determination of the condition and possibilities of use of waste formation water generated in oil production enterprises is one of the urgent problems. In general, despite the high contamination of the well product with toxic components which are produced in oil and gas extraction, a justified scientific-methodological assessment of the hazardous effect on the environment of formation waters separated from oil has not been developed. Thus, a complex system of measures should be prepared in the direction of reducing environmental risks in the production of formation waters rather than oil and the management of the volume of these waters during the development of flooded oil fields. Since we know the toxic effect of these waters on the natural environment, the issues of their disposal should be solved based on scientific and theoretical knowledge, and additionally environmental monitoring in oil fields should be improved. Taking into account that oil and gas extraction is one of the industries that require water, therefore, the method applied for efficient use of formation water is one of the main conditions for compliance with theoretically based norms. This article presents methods of disposal of formation waters used in the world practice for repeated technological processes, taking into account ecological-economic indicators. For this reason, taking into account the physico-chemical indicators of formation waters produced together with oil from the fields of Siyazanneft OGES, the efficiency of repeated technological processes was increased by adding N-4 nanocomposition.
Role of river transport and coastal abrasion in forming modern coastal and marine sediments in the Northwestern Black Sea

he Danube, the Dniester, the Southern Buh and the Dnipro rivers discharge into the north-western part of the Black Sea. Their total catchment area is 1,458 million km2. The length of the coastline with active abrasion processes in this segment is about 60 km. This is 26% of the total length of the coastline (from the estuary of the Danube, Odesa Oblast, to the city of Ochakiv, Mykolaiv Oblast). The article analyses the methodological basis for the calculation of solid river runoff and material entering the sea as a result of coastal destruction, summarizes their main characteristics and proposes an algorithm for quantitative calculations. For river runoff, it is based on the dependence of the amount suspended matter on the volume of water discharged per unit time. For quantitative calculations of coastal abrasion, data on the dynamics of changes in the configuration of the coast have been used with the help of GIS systems. It has been shown that one of the main factors influencing the removal of solid material from the land is the flow velocity, which also influences the volume of water per unit time. This leads to an increase in the mobility of terrigenouscomponents. An important factor is the mineral and physical condition of the rocks eroded along the river’s path. Man-made structures (hydroelectric plants, dams) significantly reduce the mobility of water and consequently the amount of material transported. They have the greatest effect on the transport of bottom constituents. One of the main factors influencing the intensity of abrasion is wave activity with wave heights exceeding 0.5 m. The average annual number of such waves is 165 days. The current total annual mass of sediment discharge from the Dniester (to the Dniester estuary) is 2,280 thousand tons, from the Southern Buh – 192 thousand tons (to the Dni- ester-Buh estuary) and from the Dnipro – 800 thousand tons (to the Dniester-Buh estuary). Most of this material is deposited in the estuaries and about 10% is discharged directly to the sea, which is (in thousand tons): suspended –11,981, bottom – 488. The Danube sediment discharge to the Black Sea is estimated at 12,143 thousand tons. The calculated total annual mass of material entering the sea through coastal abrasion in various parts of the coast is (in thousand tons): Lebedivka-Kurortne – 501.8; Karolino-Buhaz-Chornomorsk – 184.5; Kryzhanivka-Rybakivka – 201.6; Rybakivka-Ochakiv – 7.2, making a total of 895.1. About 158.8 thousand tons are involved in the formation of the particle size distribution of beach sediments.

Published: June 2024

n evaluation of the appropriateness of groundwater for domestic use was con- ducted in Pandavapura Taluk, located in the Mandya district of Karnataka, India. the study encompassed a vast area spanning 529 square kilometers located in a semiarid region where groundwater plays a pivotal role as a primary resource for both domestic and agricultural purposes. In the year 2022, groundwater samples were gathered from 45 wells during both the pre-monsoon and post-monsoon periods. These samples underwent thorough analysis to evaluate their physical and chemical properties such as pH, TDS, EC, TH, SO4, F, Fe, Mg, Cl, NO3, HNO3, K, Ca, and Mg. These parameters were correlated with a correlation matrix. The multivariate statistical techniques, notably principal component analysis (PCA), were employed to identify and extract four distinct components during both seasonal variations. The predominant groundwater type observed was categorized as Ca-Na-HCO3, underlining the substantial influence of rock-water interactions on groundwater chemistry dynamics within the region. In assessing overall water quality, the researchers utilized the weighted arithmetic index technique as proposed by Brown (1972), adhering to standards set forth by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in 2012. Based on the water quality index, groundwater samples were split into five categories, with most samples deemed suitable for drinking purposes in both seasons. The application of advanced statistical methods not only enhances the precision of the assessment but also provides a template for similar studies in other regions facing water quality challenges. Ultimately, the research aims to promote sustainable water management practices, ensuring the availability of clean and safe water resources for the present and future generations.

Subjektivitas Najib Kailani dalam Cerpen Udara yang Dingin
Authors: Andika Kenny
Published: June 2024

The short story Udara yang Dingin is Najib Kailani's criticism of the patriarchal culture that positions women under the control of men. This research discusses the subjectivity of characters and authors within the scope of the short story Udara yang Dingin by Najib Kailani using Slavoj Zizek's theory of Subjectivity. Zizek's view is that humans can achieve their freedom and purity by letting go of the entangling symbolic towards the wholeness that is longed for in the real. Conversely, humans will be in a symbolic trap as long as they allow themselves to be trapped in the circle of ideological false consciousness. This research shows that there is a radical effort made by Fatimah's character to release herself from the symbolic by breaking the normative rules that surround her. However, the radical action taken by Fatimah in this short story is not carried out by Najib Kailani, who is only immersed in ideological fantasies.
Samphire
Authors: Tee George
Published: June 2024

Two relatively common plants of the British coast bear the name samphire: rock samphire and marsh samphire. Confusion between them is common; all the more so since, although they belong to different botanical families (Umbelliferae and Chenopodiaceae respectively). they share some characteristics and disaster does not follow for the cook who uses 'the wrong one'. Recipes for pickled samphire abound in 17th and 18th century cookery books, and it seems clear that rock samphire was what authors of that era intended. Recipes are reappearing with increasing frequency in the 20th century, but now it is often apparent that marsh samphire is meant. 
In this article, Dr George Tee, who has been growing samphire in Devon and experimenting with both kinds in the kitchen, and who has also examined the history of samphire recipes over the centuries, does much to clear up the confusion. The drawings of the two sorts, from specimens which Dr Tee supplied, are by Soun. 
It would be interesting to have corresponding information about the use of samphire of either sort in other countries.
Eating with Mrs Rundell
Authors: Batchelor Ray
Published: June 2024

Ray Batchelor works at the Science Museum in South Kensington. His exploration of Mrs Rundell's recipes reminded us that we plan to reprint the very rare first edition of her book (1806), of which we have a copy. To the best of our knowledge this was the only edition for which she herself was fully responsible, since the publisher added material to later editions. But it may be that she herself provided the additions of the ('new' and 'corrected') edition of 1807. Any volunteers to do research on this obscure point? Meanwhile we have added a little editorial appendix at the end of Ray Batchelor's article, relating the three recipes of his choice to the first edition.

Investigating Mathematics Teachers' Intended Use of GeoGebra in Inquiry-Based Flipped Classroom Scenarios
Authors: Schallert-Vallaster Stefanie , Lavicza Zsolt
Published: June 2024

When technologies like GeoGebra are implemented in mathematics lessons, the focus should be on learners and their learning processes rather than on technologies. Studentcenteredness is a core characteristic of flipped classroom approaches. Recent further developments of flipped classroom
approaches aim to foster learning through inquiry in flipped scenarios. In this study, we are particularly focusing on the 5E-based flipped classroom approach. We investigated how secondary mathematics teachers planned to use GeoGebra in their written lesson plans for 5E-based flipped classroom
scenarios. Using coding procedures related to qualitative content analysis, we conducted a document analysis on 24 written lesson plans. Findings indicate, for instance, that participants not only planned to use dynamic GeoGebra materials in exploratory phases during class. Some teachers also
intended to use a screencast demonstrating the GeoGebra applet in a pre out-of-class phase to engage students in the inquiry process or for consolidation after exploration.
How Users Review Frequently Used Apps and Videos Containing Mathematics
Authors: Klinger Marcel , Walter Daniel
Published: June 2024

Hardly any other topic is currently as much the focus of social and scientific interest as the use of digital media in educational contexts. In this project, we examine the user perspective. We will explore which findings can be generated from freely accessible user reviews within
the app stores and on YouTube regarding users’ personal backgrounds, the usage contexts, emotions and attitudes, as well as the subjectively perceived qualities and shortcomings of digital learning offerings. 1268 user reviews of frequently used apps and explanatory videos with content
from primary and secondary school mathematics form the data basis of the article. The results indicate that the selected digital learning opportunities are predominantly evaluated positively by the users, whereby the perceived qualities mentioned are rather to be classified as surface features.
Perceived shortcomings of the digital learning opportunities are mentioned rarely. Regardless of whether the content of the digital learning opportunities is curricularly located in the primary or secondary level, they are more likely to be used by learners from the secondary level. The users
also state that they use the learning opportunities primarily for exam preparation as well as for learning and understanding mathematics. However, the latter two fields of uses seem less suitable from a subject didactic perspective.
Learning With Robots: Teaching and Supporting Productive Struggle in a Math Methods Course
Authors: Casler-Failing Shelli , Collins Raina M.
Published: June 2024

In 2014 NCTM advocated for productive struggle by expressing the need for teachers to allow their students the time necessary to grapple with their mathematical “uncertainties.” We posit pre-service teachers need opportunities to productively struggle when learning and
applying their mathematical understanding in order to understand how productive struggle can support their future mathematics students’ development of critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaborative skills. The participants in this research were seven pre-service teachers in an
undergraduate, middle grades mathematics course during Fall 2019 or Spring 2020. The focus of this research was to investigate how the pre-service teachers experiences with productive struggle as they learned about, and with, Lego robotics informed their understanding of the benefit of productive
struggle. A qualitative framework incorporating an action research format was utilized for the data collection and analysis. Findings show pre-service teachers benefit from the opportunity to experience productive struggle, which informs their ability to create opportunities for productive
struggle while planning lessons that incorporate Lego robotics for their future students.

This study investigates the potential repurposing of gentamicin for treating drug-resistant melanoma by targeting metabolic alterations. Rising global cancer incidence and mortality, coupled with the challenge of drug resistance, necessitate novel therapeutic strategies. Initially, we addressed the influence of antibiotics on mitochondrial function, a crucial player in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). To assess this impact, we first cultured two different cancer cells, A375 and PC3, in antibiotic-free medium and showed that mitochondrial membrane potential of cells was increased in the absence of antibiotics compared to cells cultured in antibiotic containing medium. Next, we developed vemurafenib resistance in A375 cells, which were continuously cultured in antibiotic-free medium. The resistant cells exhibited a marked increase in oxygen consumption rate, indicating a shift towards OXPHOS. Finally, we treated these vemurafenib-resistant cells and noncancerous human fibroblast cells (CCD-1072Sk) with varying concentrations of gentamicin (1-1000 µM). Remarkably, gentamicin showed selective cytotoxicity towards the resistant cells while sparing non-resistant counterparts and noncancerous cells. Our findings highlight gentamicin's potential as a therapeutic agent in targeting the metabolic vulnerabilities of drug-resistant melanoma, presenting a viable new pathway in cancer treatment.

RESUMO Objetivo: Analisar as incertezas vivenciadas por profissionais de enfermagem que adoeceram pela Covid-19. Métodos: Pesquisa qualitativa realizada com 20 profissionais de enfermagem que adoeceram pela Covid-19. A coleta de dados ocorreu por meio de entrevista semi-estruturada; os dados foram organizados a partir da análise temática e discutidos à luz da Teoria Reconceptualizada da Incerteza da Doença de Merle Mishel. Resultados: Os antecedentes da doença tiveram forte influência na apreciação da incerteza dos profissionais de enfermagem que adoeceram pela Covid-19. A veiculação midiática do aumento de casos, o colapso do sistema de saúde e o grande número de mortes contribuíram para que a percepção da doença fosse associada ao medo e ao pânico. Considerações Finais: Na perspectiva dos antecedentes da doença, o adoecimento do profissional de enfermagem pela Covid-19 mostrou que, antes de ser profissional, ele é um ser humano como qualquer outro, passando por adversidades e potencialidades de pessoas adoecidas.

Published: June 2024

RESUMO: O ensino publico no Congresso Nacional. Breve Notícia, livro inaugural de Primitivo Moacyr, foi publicado em 1916. Nosso trabalho investiga as condições de produção deste livro, seguindo a trajetória iniciada com as crônicas no Jornal do Commercio em 1915. Funcionário da Câmara dos Deputados e responsável pela organização dos Documentos Parlamentares, Moacyr lançou mão dessa posição para se colocar no cenário da imprensa brasileira e no ambiente intelectual tratando de um tema que ganhava projeção e sobre o qual pouco ou quase nada havia de estudos: o debate sobre o ensino público entre os parlamentares. As análises foram desenvolvidas sob o arcabouço dos trabalhos da história da educação na interface com a história dos impressos, da imprensa, do livro e da leitura, produzidas pela historiografia internacional e nacional, e de contribuições teórico-metodológicas da história política de Sirinelli (2003). Dentre as condições aqui apresentadas, destacamos o trabalho de Moacyr como redator dos debates parlamentares e a relação entre os homens da Câmara e do jornalismo brasileiro. As redes de sociabilidades nas quais estava inserido garantiram produtivos vínculos sociais e profissionais, e a tensão política em torno do governo Hermes da Fonseca alimentava as críticas às reformas, em especial a Reforma Rivadávia, um dos assuntos abordados no livro. Concluímos com algumas motivações que teriam levado Moacyr à escolha da instrução pública como tema para os seus trabalhos.
EXOGENOUS PRIVATIZATION AND ADVANCES OF ACADEMIC CAPITALISM IN BRAZIL AND ARGENTINA
Authors: BECHI DIEGO , ALMEIDA MARIA DE LOURDES PINTO DE
Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT: This article aims to understand the main political technologies of exogenous privatization of higher education, designed with the guidelines of international funding bodies, which have contributed to the opening and rise of the academic capitalist regime in countries such as Brazil and Argentina. The methodology used was historically critical. The investigation was qualitative, bibliographic, and documentary. To this end, the first chapter deals with the structural transformations of capitalism that supported the new governance model and, concomitantly, the exogenous privatization process of higher education at a global level. This is followed by an analysis of the higher education reforms that have taken place in Brazil and Argentina, especially since the 1980s, which have promoted the rationalization/optimization of public investment and the implementation of privatization policies. Finally, we seek to understand how educational policies, implemented in the context of neoliberal reforms, have contributed to the formation of a capitalist knowledge regime, based on the production of raw material knowledge, directly profitable. The results indicate that the political technologies of exogenous privatization of higher education have stimulated the expansion of the private/commercial sector and the redirection of public investment in favor of research to the interests of the industrial/business sector, to the detriment of “open science” (non-mercantile), favoring the advancement and materialization of academic capitalism in countries such as Brazil and Argentina.

ABSTRACT: This article addresses the context of basic education in Mozambique and intends to interpret, based on the COVID-19 mitigation measures implemented by the education sector, the diverse realities emerging to analyze the viability of teaching activities, through remote classes in Mozambique. To achieve this, we utilized data from the General Population and Housing Census of Mozambique, from the 2007 and 2017 censuses, as well as the study carried out by the College of Education of the Eduardo Mondlane University, along with the Education for All Movement (Movimento Educação para Todos: MEPT). Among other results, the research uncovers the lack of schooling of a large part of the Mozambican population on school age, a reality more severely displayed in adults aged 20 or over and, in particular, women; associates lack of schooling and school dropout with marriage and early motherhood; and, it indicates, in women who continue schooling process, a significant decrease in the percentage of development in academic levels. Regarding compliance with COVID-19 mitigation measures, based on didactic pedagogical strategies, in the context of emergency remote education, the study reveals that the poor structural and infrastructural conditions available, whether in schools, teachers, or families, impact students’ access and quality of learning.

ABSTRACT: The transition to remote learning imposed by social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic affected the lives of students, educators, and families, impacting the teaching-learning process. Besides the psychological effects, the replacement of in-person teaching with remote learning heightened the disinterest of young people in school, which was already losing its political significance, making the lower engagement in distance learning evident. The limited economic conditions of a large part of the population were exacerbated, which increased difficulties in accessing the internet and the media necessary for this adaptation. Our research aimed to listen to young people about their feelings and experiences in the context of the pandemic, as well as the meanings they attributed to school. Qualitative in nature, our research posed a central question about what kind of school they would like to help build in the projection of a post-pandemic context. In the methodology, a hybrid format was employed resulting from the experience of the interdisciplinary groups involved in the investigation, based on focus groups and psychoanalytic conversation, as well as two literature workshops; all techniques always prioritized the circulation of speech among the adolescents. In response to the central question “what post-pandemic school?” effects related to the presence of family during remote classes, the relative lack of the school environment with various consequences, and the deleterious effects of digital exclusion in the pandemic context were observed, which particularly contributed to the increase in school dropout rates.

Resumo: A questão central que norteia este trabalho é se uma câmera de registro filmográfico, que é um objeto utilizado inicialmente com fins metodológicos, poderia ter uma função terapêutica. Objetiva-se apresentar e discutir as repercussões e possibilidades referentes à presença de uma câmera em atendimentos de casos de fechamento autístico no Programa de Intervenção Precoce, em uma perspectiva psicanalítica. É uma pesquisa clínico-qualitativa, com análise de conteúdo, a partir de vinhetas clínicas de três casos de crianças entre 2 e 3 anos. São discutidas três abordagens sobre os usos e os tipos de objetos pertencentes ao universo de um bebê, a fim de interrogar se elas poderiam auxiliar na clínica do autismo: objeto transicional, objeto tutor e objeto de mediação. Considerou-se que a câmera promoveu e sustentou encontros intersubjetivos importantes e o despertar da atenção de crianças, antes pouco interessadas por aquilo que lhes era ofertado, inaugurando um espaço de coconstrução e interludicidade.

RESUMO As salmoneloses estão entre os problemas de maior prevalência na avicultura industrial, entretanto, este problema necessita de um cuidadoso programa de prevenção e controle que devem contemplar medidas que possam evitar a transmissão vertical e horizontal. Com o objetivo de pesquisar a incidência de Salmonella em pintos de corte de um dia de idade, durante o período de junho a dezembro de 2002, foram examinados 130 lotes de pintainhos recém-nascidos, contendo 10 pintos em cada lote. Foram colhidas gemas de cada um dos pintos de cada lote e realizado um "pool" de amostras para pesquisa de Salmonella spp. Dos 130 lotes examinados, 32 (24,62%) apresentaram resultado positivo para Salmonella, sendo 24 (18,46%) Salmonella Enteritidis e 8 (6,15%) Salmonella enterica subespécie enterica (O: 9,12). De acordo com os resultados obtidos, concluímos que a incidência de Salmonella em avicultura industrial é significativa e a freqüência de isolamentos de Salmonella Enteritidis é um fato que deve ser priorizado uma vez que é um sorotipo importante na saúde pública.

RESUMO Para o manejo de pragas é necessária a busca constante de inseticidas que, além de serem eficientes no controle de pragas, apresentem seletividade em favor de seus predadores. É crescente o número de ensaios que comparam estratégias de controle de pragas do algodoeiro por meio de inseticidas, porém, é muito pequeno o número de experimentos que identifica o impacto desses inseticidas sobre predadores de pragas de algodoeiro. O objetivo deste trabalho foi comparar dois métodos de amostragem de artrópodos (plantas individualizadas e batida de pano) como subsídio para a quantificação do impacto de inseticidas sobre os predadores de pragas do algodoeiro. O melhor método para a amostragem de predadores foi o método de batida de pano, apresentando uma série de vantagens como ser menos monótono, mais simples, mais prático e muito mais rápido para ser utilizado. Este método ainda possibilitou a coleta de maior diversidade de inimigos naturais, porém não permite amostrar ovos e pupas.

RESUMO Foi verificada a influência da época de plantio no rendimento do algodoeiro CNPA 7H e Deltapine Acala 90, em Formosa do Rio Preto, São Desidério e Luiz Eduardo Magalhães, no Estado da Bahia, nos campos experimentais da Embrapa instalados nas fazendas Independência, Mizote e Poletto, respectivamente. Quatro épocas foram avaliadas e os plantios foram feitos nos meses de novembro, dezembro e janeiro, safras 1998/1999 e 1999/2000, com intervalos de 15 dias entre cada plantio. Os parâmetros computados foram submetidos à análise da variância e as médias comparadas pelo teste de Tukey a 5% de probabilidade. Realizou-se levantamentos semanais de 5 pragas do algodoeiro, examinando-se os locais de ataque de cada inseto-praga e efetuando-se pulverizações a fim de manter a infestação abaixo dos níveis de controle. Através dos resultados obtidos, pode-se inferir que: a) a época de plantio tem uma marcante influência na produção do algodoeiro; b) o algodoeiro plantado em épocas diferentes proporciona aumento na população de insetos e decréscimo significativo na produção.

RESUMO A severidade de ferrugem, causada pelo fungo Uromyces appendiculatus, foi avaliada em 12 cultivares de feijoeiro, em ensaios instalados nas safras de inverno de 1994, 1995 e 1996, das águas de 1994/95 e 1995/96 e da seca de 1995 em diferentes municípios no Estado de São Paulo. Em cada local e safra foram instalados dois experimentos, um sem e outro com tratamento fitossanitário, em delineamento estatístico de blocos ao acaso com doze tratamentos (cultivares) e quatro repetições. Os cultivares utilizados (Carioca, IAC-Carioca, IAC-Maravilha, IAC-Una, IAPAR-57, IAPAR-65, Carioca-MG, FT-120, Safira, Ônix, Aporé e Diamante Negro) foram avaliados por escala de notas de 1 a 9. Os cultivares Ônix e Aporé apresentaram a menor incidência da doença; IAPAR57 e IAPAR-65 foram os mais afetados pela ferrugem em todas as safras.
AVALIAÇÃO DA DEGRADAÇÃO DE INSETICIDAS, EM FUNÇÃO DO PH, UTILIZANDO DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER E TESTE DE INIBIÇÃO ENZIMÁTICA

RESUMO Na maior parte das formulações de inseticidas como os organofosforados diazinon e triclorfon, e o carbamato carbofuran usa-se a água como veículo. A estabilidade química desses três agrotóxicos foi avaliada em função do pH de suas soluções aquosas, utilizando-se bioensaio com Drosophila melanogaster e o teste de inibição da acetilcolinesterase. Foi avaliada a degradação dos inseticidas em solução de pH 6,0; 7,8 e 10,5, mantidas à temperatura de 25,0º C. A percentagem de mortalidade das drosófilas expostas aos inseticidas mostrou que as transformações estruturais das moléculas inseticidas foram mais acentuadas para o pH 10,5 e menos para o 6,0. Os dados da inibição da acetilcolinesterase, em diferentes intervalos de tempo, mostraram que enquanto o carbofuran foi o responsável direto pela variação dos níveis da inibição enzimática, para o triclorfon ela foi devida ao seu metabólito mais tóxico diclorvos; nenhuma informação sobre modificações estruturais no diazinon pode ser obtida por este parâmetro de toxicidade. Os resultados levam a conclusão de que é importante conhecer o comportamento dos agrotóxicos em função do pH de suas soluções ou suspensões aquosas, a fim de reduzir a perda da atividade inseticida e, ainda, controlar eventuais problemas de intoxicações pelo aumento da toxicidade.

RESUMO Eczema facial é uma fotossensibilização induzida causada por Pithomyces chartarum. Este fungo, saprófita sobre certas gramíneas e leguminosas forrageiras, produz uma micotoxina hepatotóxica denominada esporodesmina e determina, em algumas áreas do Brasil, danos na pele de ovinos, caprinos e bovinos. O presente trabalho é uma revisão, onde diversas considerações sobre o problema e pesquisas realizadas em nosso meio são descritas. Inclui também uma descrição do estado teleomórfico do fungo encontrado sobre Loliump erene L. no Estado do Espírito Santo, Brasil. A presença da fase sexual do fungo sugere a possibilidade de uma grande variabilidade genética e o aparecimento de novas linhagens esporulantes e produtoras de esporodesmina.

ABSTRACT Objective: to report data collection via telephone carried out in multicenter research on nursing care assessment during the COVID-19 pandemic. Method: this is an experience report on using the telephone to collect quantitative and qualitative data with participants from ten Brazilian university hospitals from October 2020 to December 2021. The experience was presented in stages: 1) Operationalization of data collection via telephone; 2) Interviewing team training; 3) Monitoring and adjustments to data collection; and 4) Results of telephone contact with patients. Results: data collection planning and organization involved creating guidance manuals to guide the collectors, which were validated for clarity and agreement. For monitoring and adjustments, a weekly meeting was held with the interviewers in charge and researchers. Data from 539 respondents from the Patient Measure of Safety instrument, 643 from the Care Transitions Measure instrument and 56 from open interviews were included. Conclusion: using guidance manuals for data collection via telephone, training and follow-up meetings are strategies that can enhance this strategy in multicenter research when in-person data collection is impossible.
