Que assim seja: a justification in the promotion of brazilian historical heritage
Este artigo apresenta o projeto “Que Assim Seja”, que, através do teatro popular
apresentado numa praça pública do bairro do Pilar, Duque de Caxias – RJ, teve como
justificativa a promoção da Igreja Nossa Senhora do Pilar, que apesar de
registada como Património Histórico Nacional, encontra-se interditada. Além disso, o
espetáculo promoveu o resgate da identidade social e fomento da produção cultural na
região, tendo em vista que todos os envolvidos, faziam parte da comunidade local. O
artigo perpassa pela construção do espetáculo, narrando todas as etapas de produção
bem como as imersões nos estudos culturais sobre o património histórico. Por final,
apresentamos os resultados gerados a favor do património que, por estar situado em
uma região periférica da baixada fluminense, não goza de muitas políticas públicas.This article presents the project "Que Assim Seja", which through popular drama
presented in a public square in the neighborhood of Pilar, Duque de Caxias - RJ, was
the basis to promote the Nossa Senhora do Pilar Church, which despite being
registered as Historical Patrimony, is closed. In addition, the event promoted the
rescue of the social identity and the promotion of cultural production in the region,
since all those involved were part of the local community. The article goes through the
construction of the show narrating all stages of production as well as immersions in
cultural studies on historical heritage. Finally, we present the results in favor of the
patrimony that, because it is located in a peripheral region of the state of Rio de
Janeiro, is not an object of many public policies.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Impact of high-pressure homogenization on the cell integrity of Tetradesmus obliquus and seed germination
ABSTRACT: Microalgae have almost unlimited applications due to their versatility and robustness to grow in different environmental conditions, their biodiversity and variety of valuable bioactive compounds. Wastewater can be used as a low-cost and readily available medium for microalgae, while the latter removes the pollutants to produce clean water. Nevertheless, since the most valuable metabolites are mainly located inside the microalga cell, their release implies rupturing the cell wall. In this study, Tetradesmus obliquus grown in 5% piggery effluent was disrupted using high-pressure homogenization (HPH). Effects of HPH pressure (100, 300, and 600 bar) and cycles (1, 2 and 3) were tested on the membrane integrity and evaluated using flow cytometry and microscopy. In addition, wheat seed germination trials were carried out using the biomass at different conditions. Increased HPH pressure or number of cycles led to more cell disruption (75% at 600 bar and 3 cycles). However, the highest increase in wheat germination and growth (40-45%) was observed at the lowest pressure (100 bar), where only 46% of the microalga cells were permeabilised, but not disrupted. Non-treated T. obliquus cultures also revealed an enhancing effect on root and shoot length (up to 40%). The filtrate of the initial culture also promoted shoot development compared to water (21%), reinforcing the full use of all the process fractions. Thus, piggery wastewater can be used to produce microalgae biomass, and mild HPH conditions can promote cell permeabilization to release sufficient amounts of bioactive compounds with the ability to enhance plant germination and growth, converting an economic and environmental concern into environmentally sustainable applications.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
As Etapas Intermediárias como espaço de formação na Licenciatura Intercultural: interações e nexos entre Aldeia-Universidade
A UNEMAT desenvolve cursos específicos para formação de professores indígenas. Esta experiência organiza-se em duas etapas: Intensiva/Universidade; e Intermediária/Aldeia. Apresentamos aqui discussões/reflexões sobre a organização e o desenvolvimento das Etapas Intermediárias. Teoricamente, balizamo-nos em Freire, Hall, Melià, Dussel, Santos, Meneses e Nunes, e Viveiros de Castro. A metodologia consistiu na observação participante, escuta, rodas de conversa, nos diálogos e círculos de cultura, ocorridos nas Oficinas Pedagógicas das Etapas intermediárias. O estudo possibilitou-nos compreender que a formação de professores indígenas deve se dar a partir da aldeia; uma formação construída/oferecida de modo a reconhecer e valorizar os aspectos socioculturais de cada povo.

OS MEIOS DE COMUNICAÇÃO PRESENTE NOS PROCESSOS DA TUTORIA DE UM CURSO A DISTÂNCIA
A transformação tecnológica está pautada à aplicação de recursos educacionais na educação a distância (EAD) como veículo para alcançar novos públicos e desenvolver novas metodologias de ensino que possam ser aproveitadas como mecanismo complementar ou integrante do ensino presencial. A partir de uma ampla revisão bibliográfica, abrangendo autores contemporâneos e tradicionais no campo da literatura de EAD, como Belloni (2003), Aretio (2002), Moore e Kearsley (1996), este ensaio teórico busca demonstrar quais os meios de comunicação presente nos processos de tutoria de um curso a distância. Foram utilizados de dois tipos de pesquisa: a bibliográfica e a descritiva. Ao término do estudo, foi traçado a forma e a diversidade desses processos aplicadas à educação a distância

Linear relationships between partition coefficients of different organic compounds and proteins in aqueous two-phase systems of various polymer and ionic compositions
Analysis of the partition coefficients of small organic compounds and proteins in different aqueous two-phase systems under widely varied ionic compositions shows that logarithms of partition coefficients for any three compounds or proteins or two organic compounds and one protein are linearly interrelated, although for protein(s) there are ionic compositions when the linear fit does not hold. It is suggested that the established interrelationships are due to cooperativity of different types of solute–solvent interactions in aqueous media. This assumption is confirmed by analysis of distribution coefficients of various drugs in octanol-buffer systems with varied ionic compositions of the buffer. Analysis of the partition coefficients characterizing distribution of variety of drugs between blood and different tissues of rats in vivo reported in the literature showed that the above assumption is correct and enabled us to identify the tissues with the components of which the drug(s) may engage in presumably direct interactions. It shows that the suggested assumption is valid for even complex biological systems.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
Regional-based Integrated Healthcare Network policy in Brazil: from formulation to practice
Background Regional-based Integrated Healthcare Networks (IHNs) have been promoted in Brazil to overcome the fragmentation due to the health system decentralization to the municipal level; however, evaluations are scarce. The aim of this article is to analyse the content of IHN policies in force in Brazil, and the factors that influence policy implementation from the policymakers’ perspective.
Methods A two-fold, exploratory and descriptive qualitative study was carried out based on (1) content analysis of policy documents selected to meet the following criteria: legislative documents dealing with regional-based IHNs; enacted by federal government; and in force, (2) semi-structured individual interviews were conducted to a theoretical sample of policymakers at federal (eight), state (five) and municipal levels (four). Final sample size was reached by saturation of information. An inductive thematic analysis was conducted.
Results The results show difficulties in the implementation of IHN policies due to weaknesses that arise from the policy design and the performance of the three levels of government. There is a lack of specificity as to the criteria and tools for configuring and financing IHNs that need to be agreed upon between involved governments. For their part, policymakers emphasize the difficulty of establishing agreements in a health system with disincentives for collaboration between municipalities. The allocation of responsibilities that are too complex for the capacity and size of the municipalities, the abandonment of essential functions such as network planning by states and the strategic role by the Ministry, the ‘invasion’ of competences among levels of government and high political turnover are also highlighted.
Conclusions The implementation of regional-based IHN policy in Brazil is hampered by the decentralized organization of the health system to the municipal level, suggesting the need to centralize certain functions to regional structures or states and to define better the role of the government levels involved
Influence of Leaf Area Index on the Heat Index of a Tropic Urban Park
In the wake of climate change cities need to adapt to global warming In this context the use of afforestation to improve the microclimate may assist in raising the quality of life for population This objective requires research that analyzes how the variations in parameters related to canopy dynamics such as the leaf area index LAI and photosynthetically active radiation PAR can influence thermal comfort indices To contribute to this research this study measured the air temperature relative air humidity PAR and LAI on a monthly basis from July 2017 to June 2018 in an urban park in a tropical region of Brazil Kriging maps were created for the heat index HI and multiple polynomial regression models were adjusted to estimate the HI using PAR and LAI data After defining the models positive and negative variations of LAI were tested to observe if any changes in HI occurred The simulated results showed greater sensitivity to negative variations in LAI in which a 50 reduction in LAI decreased the HI by 28 particularly during the dry perio
