Real and complex integral closure, Lipschitz equisingularity and applications on square matrices

Recently the authors investigated the Lipschitz triviality of simple germs of matrices. In this work, we improve some previous results and we present an extension of an integral closure result for the real setting. These tools are applied to investigate classes of square matrices singularities classified by Bruce and Tari

A importância do planejamento para o desenvolvimento do turismo sustentável no Parque Estadual do Guartelá – Paraná

O presente artigo tem como objetivo avaliar a importância do planejamento para o desenvolvimento do turismo sustentável no Parque Estadual do Guartelá – Paraná. Trata-se de um estudo de caso, cuja coleta de dados ocorreu por meio de visitas in loco e questionários aplicados aos turistas. Concluiu-se com este trabalho que os resultados alcançados ajudaram a compreender as motivações históricas que fomentaram a necessidade de conservação da paisagem, além da permanência da identidade cultural do lugar. A valorização da natureza e a preservação do ecossistema local incentivaram o município a lançar um novo olhar sobre seu patrimônio cultural e natural, visando a uma nova fonte de geração de renda para a população

Surto de mastite causado por leveduras em um rebanho brasileiro

 This study aimed to describe an outbreak of bovine mastitis caused by yeast in a dairy herd located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. Microbiological analysis of milk samples (106) of the infected mammary quarters of lactating cows showed that Corynebacterium bovis (43.48%) and yeasts from the genus Candida (29.35%) were the main agents isolated in the herd. C. albicans(33.34%), C. catenulate (22.23%) and C. glabrata (18.52%) were the species most commonly isolated. The high prevalence of yeast mastitis was associated with lack of training formilkers, repetitive intramammary treatment and poor teat hygiene prior to the intramammary infusion. Appropriate management measures, specific treatment with antifungal drugs and  removal of chronically infected animals were effective for the control of mastitis outbreak. O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever um surto de mastite bovina causada por leveduras em um rebanho leiteiro localizado no Estado de Minas Gerais, Brasil. Análises microbiológicas de amostras de leite (106) dos quartos mamários infectados de vacas em lactação demonstraram que Corynebacterium bovis (43,48%) e leveduras do gênero Candida (29,35%) foram os principais agentes isolados no rebanho. C. albicans (33,34%), C. catenulata (22,23%) e C. glabrata (18,52%) foram as espécies mais comumente isoladas. A elevada prevalência da mastite por leveduras foi associada à falta de treinamento dos ordenhadores, ao tratamento intramamário repetitivo e a falhas na higienização de tetas antes da infusão intramamária. Medidas adequadas de manejo, tratamento específico com drogas antifúngicas e descarte de animais cronicamente infectados foram eficazes para o controle do surto

Distribuição dos agregados e carbono orgânico influenciados por manejos agroecológicos.

O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar a influência do manejo agroecológico na distribuição dos agregados estáveis em água e no teor de carbono orgânico dos agregados em diferentes coberturas vegetais. Foram selecionadas cinco áreas, a saber: sistema agroflorestal; cultivo de figo (Ficus carica L.); consórcio maracujá (Passiflora edulis S.)–Desmodium sp.; cultivo de feijão (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), em manejo convencional, e cultivo de milho (Zea mays L.), em plantio direto. Em cada área, foram coletadas amostras de terra indeformadas, nas profundidades de 0 - 5 e 5 - 10 cm, e avaliada a estabilidade dos agregados e o teor de carbono orgânico nos agregados (COAGR). A maior massa de agregados encontra-se na classe de 2,00 mm, em ambas as profundidades, com exceção do cultivo de feijão. Nas duas profundidades, a classe de 2,00 mm apresentou os maiores valores de COAGR para a área do consórcio macaracujá - Desmodium sp

Rural development policies in the Province of Alicante (Spain)

El artículo aborda las características de la Política Agrícola Común (PAC) en la Unión Europea y sus consecuencias en la agricultura de la zona mediterránea, principalmente en la provincia de Alicante (Comunidad Valenciana-España) También caracterizamos el Programa Relaciones entre las Actividades de Desarrollo de la Economía Rural (LEADER) en la zona de montaña en la provincia de Alicante, sus especificidades y las posibles mejoras en la diversificación de las actividades económicas en los municipios que fueron beneficiados por la financiación del programa. Y debido a la diversidad de la agricultura, abordamos la actuación de las cooperativas agrícolas por sector de actividad productiva que reflejan las estructuras productivas y la presencia de diferentes tipos de agricultores en la provincia de Alicante. La agricultura mediterránea en función de las características climáticas y de cultivo es fundamental para la economía de los municipios y su inserción en el mercado europeo.This article discusses the characteristics of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) in the European Union and its consequences for agriculture in the Mediterranean area, mainly in the Province of Alicante (Valencian Community – Spain). We also characterize the Relations Program between the Rural Economy Development Activities (LEADER) in the mountain area in the Province of Alicante, its specificities and possible improvements in the diversification of economic activities in the municipalities that have benefited from the program’s funding. In addition, due to the diversity of agriculture, we approached the performance of agricultural cooperatives by sector of production activity, which reflect the production structures and the presence of different kinds of farmers in the Province of Alicante. Mediterranean agriculture, based on the climatic and farming characteristics, is crucial to the economy of the municipalities and their integration into the European market.Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias de la Educació

Hemorheological Evaluation and Cytokine Production in Dogs Naturally Infected with Anaplasmataceae

In this chapter, we describe that naturally infected dogs with Anaplasmataceae show altered rhreological parameters. Also, we have showed that lower viscosity correlated with the lower erythrocyte number and release of IFN-γ. The rheometry of the fresh blood samples was measured by using the Modular Compact Rheometer—MCR 102 (Anton Paar® GmbH, Ostfildern, Germany), and the graphs were obtained using Rheoplus software. Blood count data were obtained by analysis in a private laboratory. Diagnostic confirmation was obtained by molecular PCR technique that was used to determine the groups of not infected and infected by Anaplasmataceae. Serum cytokines were dosed by flow cytometry (FACScalibur BD®) using BD® Biosciences Cytometric Bead Array (CBA) Human Th1/Th2/Th17 Cytokine kits. The results showed a correlation between blood viscosity (p < 0.05, r = 0.73) and shear rate (p < 0.05; r = −0.676) with IFN-γ in the group of infected dogs that presented anemia, as well as correlations of shear rate with erythrocytes (p < 0.05; r = −0.88). Thus, IFN-γ appears to play an important role in the immunomodulation of the rheological behavior of naturally infected dogs to Anaplasmataceae. The alterations in cytokines profile and their relationship with blood viscosity and hematological parameters was related in this study the first time of dogs naturally infected with Anaplasmataceae
