title: REACTION OF Crambe abyssinica TO Meloidogyne javanica AND M. incognita RACE 3

description: ABSTRACT Several oilseed plants have been researched for biodiesel production in Brazil, and Crambe abyssinica Hochst is one of the most promising species. The effect of the phytonematodes M. incognita race 3 and Meloidogyne javanica on C. abyssinica plants was evaluated in greenhouse experiments. A randomized block design with five nematode inoculum levels (350, 700, 1400, 2800, and 5600 eggs) and ten replications was used. C. abyssinica plants without inoculation were used as controls, and the viability of the nematodes used was tested in tomato plants inoculated with 2000 eggs. The plots consisted of pots containing one plant. The number of root knots (NG), number of egg masses (NEM), and number of eggs + second-stage juveniles (NEJ2) per root system, number of J2 per 200 cm3 of soil (NJ2), and shoot dry weight (SDW) of the inoculated C. abyssinica plants were evaluated at 45 days after inoculation. The reproduction factor (RF) of the nematodes was also evaluated. The resistance of the plants to the phytonematodes was classified using the RF criterion. Crambe abyssinica plants are susceptible to the different inoculum levels of Meloidogyne javanica and M. incognita used, and the data of all nematode variables (NG, NEM, NEJ2, NJ2, and RF) were fitted by linear models.

title: GERMINATION OF CHIA SEEDS IN DIFFERENT SUBSTRATES AND WATER VOLUMES

description: ABSTRACT Water availability and substrate type are essential factors in seed germination tests, influencing imbibition and seedling development. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of two substrates and different water volumes on the germination and vigor of chia seeds. The experimental design was completely randomized in a 2 x 6 factorial scheme, which consisted of two substrates, paper towel (Germitest®) and blotting paper, soaked with six water volumes equivalent to 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0 times their dry weight, in four replicates of 50 seeds each. Germination percentage, mean time of germination, shoot length, radicle length, shoot dry matter, radicle dry matter, total dry matter (seedling), and root/shoot ratio were evaluated. Based on our results, germination tests for seeds of chia should be conducted using blotting paper (on paper) as substrate, with a water volume of 2.5 to 4.0 times its dry weight. Chia seedlings grown on blotting paper showed greater growth and dry matter accumulation compared to those grown on paper towel.

title: Physiological quality of castor seeds (Ricinus communis L.) after processing

description: Abstract: Castor bean seeds are the raw material used for extracting oil destined to pharmaceutical and industrial ends. The appropriate application of post-harvest technologies, such as processing, is required to ensure the production of top quality seeds. Thus, this study aimed at assessing the physiological quality of seeds from two castor bean genotypes, classified according to their specific mass and size. Castor seeds of the genotypes EVF102 and EVF103 were mechanically harvested and then classified with the aid of cylindrical sieves and a densimetric table. This procedure was conducted at the processing unit of the company Sementes Goiás LTDA [Goiás Seeds Co.]. Evaluations of seed physiological quality were carried out in the Seed Laboratory of Instituto Federal Goiano, following a completely randomized design. The testing was conducted in four replicates, in a 2 x 2 x 5 factorial scheme (two genotypes x two sizes x five specific masses). The following parameters were appraised: (a) mass of one thousand seeds; (b) germination; (c) germination speed index; (d) emergence test; (e) emergence speed index; (f) electrical conductivity; and (g) accelerated aging. Genotype EVF102 seeds sized 8 mm, as classified by the densimetric table, showed the highest physiological quality, considering the germination, germination speed index, and emergence. Seeds of the genotype EVF103, sorted by size, exhibited no difference in physiological quality.

title: Characterization of suicide attempts by exogenous substances

description: AbstractThis study presents the profile of suicide attempts by exogenous intoxication in Barra do Garças, state of Mato Grosso, from January 2008 to December 2013. This is a cross-sectional, retrospective and descriptive epidemiological study. Data were collected from the Notifiable Diseases Information System (SINAN). A total of 164 cases of suicide attempt by exogenous intoxication were registered. The most frequent toxic agents were drugs (50%) and pesticides (26.2%). Suicide attempts were more frequent among females (71.1%) and adults (81%). Information about the rational use of drugs, greater control over the sale of pesticides, and the implementation of social programs to support and care for victims could contribute to the reduction of cases.

title: The health of the adolescent deprived of freedom: a look at policies, laws, norms and its effects on institutional performance

description: The paper aims to support the debate on the effects that the set of legal, administrative and political pieces of legislation have on institutional performance and practice of managers and professionals from the socio-educational and health systems. Laws, ordinances, resolutions, regulations, academic and institutional texts were raised and analyzed that support and provide the health policy dedicated to offenders adolescents in Brazil. There is asymmetry between the laws and norms and the reality of Socio-Educational Units, which makes it urgent to overcome the barriers of prejudice and stigmatization through investment in human resources and inter-governmental partnerships.

title: Development, Validation, and Reliability Testing of the Brief Instrument to Assess Workers› Productivity during a Working Day (IAPT)

description: Abstract Purpose: The aim of this study was to develop, validate, and test the clarity and reliability of the Brief Instrument to Assess Workers’ Productivity during a Working Day. Design/methodology/approach: The content of the instrument was chosen using research containing other valid instruments and after this the construct was developed. Relevance and clarity validations were conducted with experts using Likert scales (from 0 to 10), convergent validity was performed using the Health and Productivity Questionnaire (HPQ) and Health & Labor Questionnaire (HLQ) instruments, and reliability measures were carried out using the Split Half Test and Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient. Findings: The instrument proved to be clear and relevant with an average of 9.11±0.93 in the relevance test and 9.23±0.75 in the clarity test. Regarding convergent validity, the instrument showed a high correlation with the HPQ (r2= 0.86) and the HLQ (r2 = 0.82). The reliability results were r2 = 0.78 in the Split Half Test and a Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient of α = 0.91 for the Management variables and α = 0.80 for the Physical and Mental Variables. Originality/value: The proposed instrument was shown to have an adequate content and construct, in addition to converging results with other recognized instruments, and it had very high levels of reliability. All these factors define it as a good tool for research regarding productivity in companies.

title: Photography: theory, interrupted?

description: Abstract I diagnose a state of the art in photography theories, in view of the symptoms of an “interruption” of its discourse, in the limit between two beacons that guided it, since the 1980s, namely: the emphasis on technical devices of visualization, and its semiotic corollary of indexicality. From the starting point of theoretical discourses of history and art criticism, and also the instituting force of the work of photographers-artists, I construct a counter-discourse to this dominance of visual devices, situating visual aisthésis (and its mediation by art history) as alternative parameters for reallocating a genuinely pragmatic and phenomenological inquiry about the experience of photographic images.

title: Shale gas plays, Neuquén Basin, Argentina: chemostratigraphy and mud gas carbon isotopes insights

description: ABSTRACT: In order to enhance the knowledge of shale objectives from Vaca Muerta and Los Molles Formations in the Neuquén Basin, Argentina, chemostratigraphic and mud gas carbon isotope analyses were performed in two wells from Agua del Cajón and Salitral oilfields (ADC-1016 and NqSa-1148). Geochemical data show restricted levels in both cases to perforate and produce. In ADC-1016 well, Lower Los Molles Formation looks like the most suitable play to be produced. At El Salitral oilfield (NqSa-1148), the best remarkable Vaca Muerta-Quintuco objectives are associated with authigenic elements, in limited horizons. Enhancement of the Quintuco reservoir by deep circulating fluids (thermobaric reservoir) is suggested. Carbon isotope analysis reveals complex processes that affected the gas composition. Addition of microbial methane, biodegradation of ethane-propane and mixing of gases has been recognized. Isotope reversals and presumed water reforming of hydrocarbons have been registered associated with overpressure for Lower Los Molles Formation in the ADC-1016 well, which is pointed out as the most promising shale play in the area. Vaca Muerta gases at Agua del Cajon ADC- 1016 well are associated with the homonymous source. El Salitral 1148 well shows that primary isotope composition in gases from Vaca Muerta shale play and Quintuco reservoir could be associated with a Lower Los Molles source, an aloctonous charge related with the main structures of the area.

title: Surveillance and monitoring of fluorides in public drinking water: a systematic review

description: Fluoride can harm or protect human dentition according to its concentration in the water. This paper summarizes major methodological features and main findings described in studies of fluoride concentration in public supply water that were published in specialized journals between 2008 and 2012, highlighting their implications for public health surveillance. A systematic review was conducted comprising scientific articles in the databases Embase, Lilacs and PubMed. Thirty-six studies were included: 28 from the Americas, five from Asia, two from Africa and one from Europe. The variability of the studies related to design and methodological procedures was high. Although the studies provided information on the space-temporal distribution of the samples, few publications described the population covered by the investigated supply source. Almost half of the studies were cross-sectional and no dispersion or variation measure was associated to the mean value. The electrometric method and dichotomous classification of the samples were predominately used for evaluating the outcomes. Less than half of the studies were articulated to surveillance as a State action and a lesser number raised hypotheses regarding possible factors related to the findings. There is a major space to be narrowed between the results of these initiatives and the use of that information by public health authorities and to improve methodological procedures in future studies. The interaction between researchers and water quality control organizations should be increased.

title: The body in the images of the Portuguese Colonial War: subjectivities under analysis

description: Abstract This paper intends to analyze the representation of bodies in photographic images by the Portuguese military, representing themselves and local population, produced in the context of the Portuguese Colonial War. Starting with the idea of the body as a constituent element of subjectivity, these images present themselves as spaces of tension and negotiation of complex identities. The analysis will take into account the dominant visual regimes that contextualize these photos, namely through an archaeology of the imagetic field, mobilizing the binomial honorific portrait/disciplinary portrait. The possibilities of resistance to conventions of representation in the photographic space and the processes of hermeneutical performativity that also include the contemporary spectator of these images are also considered in the articulation between memory and photography.
