Skeletopy of the intumescentia lumbalis and conus medullaris applied to epidural anaesthesia in Leopardus geoffroyi

Background: Leopardus geoffroyi is a Neotropical wild felid with wide distribution in the south of the South American continent. The objective was to investigate the skeletopy of the intumescentia lumbalis (IL) and conus medullaris (CM) from 11 specimens of L. geoffroyi collected dead on highways. Materials and methods: The cadavers were fixed in formaldehyde solution and dissected to allow the dorsal exposure of IL and CM. The cranial and caudal limits were marked with radiopaque pins and radiographic projections were used to determine the skeletopy. The lengths of IL and CM were measured with a pachymeter. Results: In most specimens, the IL was located at the level of L4 and L5 vertebrae, although in 4 (1 male and 3 females) individuals its cranial limit was L3 and in 3 specimens (2 male and 1 female) the caudal limit was L6. The length of IL was 35.6 ± 6.7 mm. The CM had its base predominantly at the level of the L5 vertebra, although in some specimens the base was in L4 and in others in L6. The apex of the CM can be found since the lumbosacral junction until the level of the Cd2 vertebra. The CM measured 74.4 ± 14.3 mm. Conclusions: Based on the skeletopy, it can be suggested that epidural anaesthesia procedures in L. geoffroyi are safer with the introduction of the catheter through the sacrocaudal interarcual space, as recommended by some anaesthetists for the domestic cat

Sensory evaluation and cooking properties of macaroni at basis of brazil nut (Bertholetia excelsa) and peach palm fruit (Bactris gasipaes, Kunt) flours.

The Brazil nut tree, Bertholletia excelsa HBK, is explored throughout the Amazon region and its main characteristic is high content of lipids and proteins, they consist of sulfur amino acids of high biological value. The peach palm, Bactris gasipases, Kunth, is a native palm to the same region, that is grown for heart-of-palm extraction. Their fruits are mostly protein, vitamin A and fiber. The way of adding commercial value from co-products to Brazil nut processing is flour productian. That way the Brazil nut flour, for its high nutritional value and pleasant taste was used in macaroni production, along with peach palm fruit flour to improve the nutritianal properties of final product
