    The purpose of the research is to make known the importance of the use of light as a mechanism of the utilization of microalgae for the production of phycobiliproteins, as a contribution to industrial biotechnology, which provides information on conditions and crop parameters, since several studies have shown that red light favors the growth of biomass, while red and blue wavelengths commonly promote the concentration and production of phycobiliproteins, which depends on the genus, species, strain, and environmental conditions, as well as their native conditions, since this mechanism is generated as an adaptive response, so it is necessary to investigate to understand these phenomena. The methodology was based on a documentary analysis through VOSviewer using the Web Of Science database, in which the words "Microalgae Pigment Light effect" were used which allowed us to conclude that there is a correlation of words focused on the production of biofuels, such as carotenoids, anthoxanthin, beta carotenes, and lutein, taking advantage of the use of light as a determining factor, taking into account that the strains that are most related to these studies are: Spirulina plantesis, Chrorella Vulgaris and chlamydomonas reinhardtii. The knowledge of the application of these pigments is wide, so the study of pigment production from microalgae evaluating the effect of light has become a topic of great interest, especially for the pigment market.En la actualidad, diversos estudios han demostrado que la luz roja favorece el crecimiento de la biomasa, mientras que, comúnmente, longitudes de ondas rojas y azules promueven la concentración y producción de ficobiliproteínas, lo cual depende del género o especie, y de las condiciones del medio, así como de sus condiciones nativas, pues este mecanismo se genera como respuesta de adaptación, por lo que se hace necesario indagar para comprender estos fenómenos. En este orden de ideas, el propósito de esta investigación fue dar a conocer la importancia del aprovechamiento de la luz, como mecanismo de utilización de las microalgas para la producción de ficobiliproteínas, como contribución a la biotecnología industrial, la cual brinda información sobre condiciones y parámetros cultivos. La metodología de estudio se basó en un análisis documental a través de VOSviewer, usando la base de datos Web of Science, en la cual se utilizaron las palabras “Microalgae Pigment Light effect”. Con base en lo anterior, se pudo determinar que existe una correlación de palabras enfocadas a la producción de biocombustibles, como carotenoides, antoxantina, betacarotenos y luteína, aprovechando el uso de la luz como factor determinante, teniendo en cuenta que las cepas que más se relacionan con estos estudios son: Spirulina plantesis, Chrorella vulgaris y Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. El conocimiento de la aplicación de estos pigmentos es amplio, por lo que el estudio de la producción de pigmentos a partir de microalgas, evaluando el efecto de la luz, se ha convertido en un tema de gran interés, en especial para el mercado de pigmentos

    Cattleya trianae (Linden and Reichb.f., 1860), Colombian national flower, is in danger of extinction due to the destruction of its natural habitats and excessive collection for horticultural purposes. Therefore, in vitro culture is a tool for the conservation of threatened species. In this study we determined the most suitable culture medium for asimbytic seed germination and in vitro propagation of C. trianae. Initially, mature capsules were collected, the seeds were subsequently disinfected and seeded with the syringe method (Vendrame et al., 2007), to evaluate the effect of five media on the development of C. trianae after 20 weeks. The seedlings were transplanted and acclimated using different substrates. The best percentage (54.2%) of seedling formation after 20 weeks was found in MS + JP medium with significant differences (P 0.05: Tukey HSD). In this research, it is reported that the addition of organic additives to the MS medium improves the efficacy of this, and therefore, allows a greater growth and development of C. trianae under in vitro conditions.Cattleya trianae (Linden and Reichb.f., 1860), Colombian national flower, is in danger of extinction due to the destruction of its natural habitats and excessive collection for horticultural purposes.

    A  phylogenetic  study  was  carried  out  between  the  species  Prochilodus  reticulatus (Valenciennes, 1850) and P. magdalenae (Steindachner, 1879) of great socioeconomic value in the country. Initially, the species were collected for DNA extraction and subsequent characterization by RAPD-PCR to establish their phylogenetic relationships using the Jaccard coefficient and the UPGMA method. The phylogenetic analysis of P. reticulatus and P. magdalenae showed a close genetic relationship, which suggests that the differences found between them may not be considered significant.Se realizó un estudio filogenético entre las especies Prochilodus reticulatus (Valenciennes, 1850) y P. magdalenae (Steindachner, 1879) de gran valor socioeconómico en el país.

    Aims: The safety and efficacy of the novel selective cardiac myosin activator, omecamtiv mecarbil, in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is tested in the Global Approach to Lowering Adverse Cardiac outcomes Through Improving Contractility in Heart Failure (GALACTIC‐HF) trial. Here we describe the baseline characteristics of participants in GALACTIC‐HF and how these compare with other contemporary trials. Methods and Results: Adults with established HFrEF, New York Heart Association functional class (NYHA) ≥ II, EF ≤35%, elevated natriuretic peptides and either current hospitalization for HF or history of hospitalization/ emergency department visit for HF within a year were randomized to either placebo or omecamtiv mecarbil (pharmacokinetic‐guided dosing: 25, 37.5 or 50 mg bid). 8256 patients [male (79%), non‐white (22%), mean age 65 years] were enrolled with a mean EF 27%, ischemic etiology in 54%, NYHA II 53% and III/IV 47%, and median NT‐proBNP 1971 pg/mL. HF therapies at baseline were among the most effectively employed in contemporary HF trials. GALACTIC‐HF randomized patients representative of recent HF registries and trials with substantial numbers of patients also having characteristics understudied in previous trials including more from North America (n = 1386), enrolled as inpatients (n = 2084), systolic blood pressure < 100 mmHg (n = 1127), estimated glomerular filtration rate < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 (n = 528), and treated with sacubitril‐valsartan at baseline (n = 1594). Conclusions: GALACTIC‐HF enrolled a well‐treated, high‐risk population from both inpatient and outpatient settings, which will provide a definitive evaluation of the efficacy and safety of this novel therapy, as well as informing its potential future implementation

    Abstract Background Healthcare cannot achieve net-zero carbon without addressing operating theatres. The aim of this study was to prioritize feasible interventions to reduce the environmental impact of operating theatres. Methods This study adopted a four-phase Delphi consensus co-prioritization methodology. In phase 1, a systematic review of published interventions and global consultation of perioperative healthcare professionals were used to longlist interventions. In phase 2, iterative thematic analysis consolidated comparable interventions into a shortlist. In phase 3, the shortlist was co-prioritized based on patient and clinician views on acceptability, feasibility, and safety. In phase 4, ranked lists of interventions were presented by their relevance to high-income countries and low–middle-income countries. Results In phase 1, 43 interventions were identified, which had low uptake in practice according to 3042 professionals globally. In phase 2, a shortlist of 15 intervention domains was generated. In phase 3, interventions were deemed acceptable for more than 90 per cent of patients except for reducing general anaesthesia (84 per cent) and re-sterilization of ‘single-use’ consumables (86 per cent). In phase 4, the top three shortlisted interventions for high-income countries were: introducing recycling; reducing use of anaesthetic gases; and appropriate clinical waste processing. In phase 4, the top three shortlisted interventions for low–middle-income countries were: introducing reusable surgical devices; reducing use of consumables; and reducing the use of general anaesthesia. Conclusion This is a step toward environmentally sustainable operating environments with actionable interventions applicable to both high– and low–middle–income countries
