Comfort and energy consumption in a hybrid tunnel-type broiler barn in different bioclimatic zones of Brazil

La producción avícola está influenciada directamente por sus condiciones ambientales, y por ende, las condiciones de confort, bienestar animal y consumo energético de las instalaciones. El objetivo de este estudio fue realizar una evaluación de las necesidades de climatización para un galpón de presión negativa en modo túnel (hibrido), en 12 ciudades brasileras ubicadas en las 8 zonas bioclimáticas del país. Se encontró que las ciudades ubicadas en las zonas bioclimáticas 1 y 2 requieren mayor consumo de energía para la calefacción durante la primera fase (0-21 días), mientras que las zonas 7 y 8, requieren más energía para enfriamiento durante la segunda fase (22-42 días). Las ciudades ubicadas en las zonas 3, 4, 5 y 6 presentan las mejores condiciones de confort y el mayor ahorro energético para las dos fases

Invasive maxillary sinus aspergillosis: a case report successfully treated with voriconazole and surgical debridement

Introduction: Invasive aspergillosis of the paranasal sinuses is a rare disease and often misdiagnosed; however, its incidence has seen substancial growth over the past 2 decades. Definitive diagnosis of these lesions is based on histological examination and fungal culture. Case Report: An 81-year-old woman with a history of pain in the left maxillary region is presented. The diagnosis was invasive maxillary aspergillosis in immunocompetent patient, which was successfully treated with voricona - zole and surgical debridement. Possible clinical manifestations, diagnostic imaging techniques and treatment used are discussed. Since the introduction of voriconazole, there have been several reports of patients with invasive aspergillosis who responded to treatment with this new antifungal agent. Conclusions: We report the importance of early diagnosis and selection of an appropriate antifungal agent to achie - ve a successful treatment

RECURSOS GENÉTICOS DE ANONÁCEAS (Annonaceae) EN MÉXICO: SITUACIÓN ACTUAL Y PERSPECTIVAS

Sweetsops (Annonaceae) are found within the most primitive plants among angiosperms, their origin is tropical with distribution in both hemispheres. In México, they are found in the Central, Gulf and Pacific states, and their uses for food, therapy, agroecosystem conservation and insecticide are recognized. The Annona L. genus presents 15 species and greater agronomic potential in México. Through the Annonaceae Mexican Network, certain species have been collected, conserved and characterized, such as A. muricata, A. cherimola, A. diversifolia, and A. squamosa, which are cultivated and conserved in commercial and backyard gardens, and protected natural areas. There is a collection of more than 381 accessions distributed in banks from the Salvador Sánchez Colín Foundation in Coatepec Harinas, Estado de México, the Instituto Tecnológico de Cd. Altamirano in Guerrero, the Experimental Field in Santiago Ixcuintla and Cotaxtla in Nayarit and Veracruz, respectively, and Universidad Veracruzana in Actopan, Veracruz. Annonaceae in México have been scarcely explored, however, because of their diversity of uses, they are placed as alternative crops to fruit trees that have lost economic profitability.Las anonáceas (Annonaceae) se ubican dentro las plantas más primitivas de las angiospermas, su origen es tropical con distribución en ambos hemisferios. En México se localizan en los estados del Centro, Golfo y Pacifico y se reconocen usos alimenticios, terapéuticos, conservación de agroecosistemas e insecticidas. El género Annona L., presenta 15 especies y mayor potencial agronómico en México. A través de la Red Mexicana de Anonáceas, se han recolectado, conservado y caracterizado especies tales como, A. muricata, A. cherimola, A. diversifolia, y A. squamosa las cuales se cultivan y conservan en huertos comerciales, traspatio y áreas naturales protegidas. Se tiene una colección de más de 381 accesiones distribuidas en bancos de la Fundación Salvador Sánchez Colín en Coatepec Harinas, Estado de México, el Instituto Tecnológico de Cd. Altamirano en Guerrero, Campo Experimental Santiago Ixcuintla y Cotaxtla en Nayarit y Veracruz, respectivamente, y Universidad Veracruzana en Actopan, Veracruz. Las anonáceas en México han sido poco exploradas, sin embargo, por su diversidad de usos se ubican como cultivos alternos a frutales que han perdido rentabilidad económica

TOXICIDAD DE INSECTICIDAS EN ESCAMA BLANCA (Aulacaspis tubercularis Newstead) (Hemiptera: Diaspididae) DEL MANGO (Mangifera indica L.).

White scale (Aulacaspis tubercularis Newstead) has become a serious problem in mango cultivation (Mangifera indica L.), provoking a reduction in photosynthesis and cosmetic damage on the fruit which affects its exports. The toxicity of different insecticides was evaluated, to have more chemical alternatives in this insect’s control. A completely random design with four repetitions under laboratory conditions was used. Two toxicity evaluations were performed against females at 3 and 24 h after application, and in males it was evaluated at 3 h after application. The doses of propylene glycol monolaurate (1175.4 and 2357.9 mg kg-1) and mineral oil (2940 and 3920 mg kg-1) caused mortality in females of 100 % and 98 %, respectively. The CL50 of cypermethrin (23.49 mg kg-1) and mineral oil (368.6 mg kg-1) in females was lower than the doses evaluated in the study. The mineral oil with a dose of 3920 mg kg-1 controlled 60 % in males with CL50 of 1418 mg kg-1. The best products both for males and females were mineral oil and propylene glycol monolaurate.La escama blanca (Aulacaspis tubercularis Newstead) se ha convertido en un problema serio en el cultivo del mango (Mangifera indica L.), provocando reducción en la fotosíntesis y daño cosmético a la fruta afectando su exportación. Se evaluó la toxicidad de diferentes insecticidas para contar con mayores alternativas químicas en el control de este insecto. Se utilizó un diseño completamente al azar con cuatro repeticiones bajo condiciones de laboratorio. Se realizaron dos evaluaciones de toxicidad contra hembras a las 3 y 24 h después de la aplicación, en machos se evaluó a las 3 h de la aplicación. Las dosis de monolaurato de propilenglicol (1175.4 y 2357.9 mg kg-1) y aceite mineral (2940 y 3920 mg kg-1) causaron mortalidad en hembras de 100% y 98%, respectivamente. La CL50 de cipermetrina (23.49 mg kg-1) y aceite mineral (368.6 mg kg-1) en hembras fue inferior a las dosis evaluadas en el estudio. El aceite mineral con dosis de 3920 mg kg-1 controló 60% en machos con CL50 de 1418 mg kg-1. Los mejores productos tanto para machos como hembras fueron el aceite mineral y monolaurato de propilenglicol

Resorcinolic Lipids from Yucatecan Propolis

Propolis is a material produced by bees from a combination of plant exudates and wax, used to fill out cracks in the beehive and to defend against intruders and pathogenic microorganisms; it is recognized for its many biological activities and its chemical composition depends on the botanical sources close to the beehive. The objective of this investigation was to isolate and identify metabolites with antioxidant activity present in a propolis sample collected in Yucatan, Mexico. Purification of the bioactive metabolites was carried out using argentation chromatography, while the combination of 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), laser desorption ionization (LDI), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and biosynthetic origin data allowed their identification as resorcinolic lipids. Finally, the resin of Mangifera indica was identified as the botanical source of these metabolite

Upper bound to the effective area of concrete in tension

Congreso celebrado en la Escuela de Arquitectura de la Universidad de Sevilla desde el 24 hasta el 26 de junio de 2015.The effective tension area of concrete is a well known parameter in structural concrete. It is involved in several phenomena that affect the design of structural concrete elements, such as cracking, shear deformation or flexural deformation. In this work, the authors put forward a necessary change in the definition of the effective tension area of concrete provided by some groups of Standards
