    La pandèmia ha obligat a canviar radicalment les nostres vides i l'educació social s'ha alçat com a servei essencial. En un context en què el dret a la llibertat individual preval sobre el bé coŀlectiu, la pandèmia ha obligat a qüestionar el model capitalista. Han aflorat tot tipus de problemàtiques socials que han deixat al descobert un model que es basa en la caritat i no en l'emancipació i l'autonomia de les persones. En aquest context, les educadores socials segueixen treballant des de la precarietat i la invisibilització. Fan esforços per treballar en i per a un sistema que defensa interessos contraris als seus i han d'afrontar contradiccions com ara treballar en l'educació social tot respectant distàncies de seguretat o qüestionant-se si són realment essencials per representar un servei mínim per a la subsistència, que permet que el sistema no s'ensorri. Un grup de vint-i-dues alumnes han aprofitat per reflexionar sobre aquesta situació dins del marc de l'assignatura de supervisió de pràctiques.

    ABSTRACT: The bromthymol blue (BTB) method is currently used for the assessment of color in olive and seed oils by visual comparison with standard solutions. Two BTB scales were prepared with 2 yr difference and compared, and the recent one was used to analyze 502 virgin olive oil samples, obtained by the Abencor ® technique reproducing the industrial procedure. The temporal chromatic degradation of the BTB samples after 2 yr [3.93 Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage (CIE) 1976-(L*a*b*) (CIELAB) units, on the average], as well as the small percentage of virgin olive oils matching the colors of the samples provided by the BTB scales (13.1% with a suprathreshold color tolerance of 1.52 CIELAB units), indicates the limitations of the BTB method. Linear regression models are proposed in order to compute with acceptable accuracy the BTB indices from chromaticparameters. The use of CIELAB for the specification and future studies on color in virgin olive oils is recommended. Paper no. J8837 in JAOCS 76, 687-692 (June 1999).

In a context in which the right to individual freedom prevails over the collective good, the pandemic has prompted a questioning of the capitalist model, which has been completely shaken. All kinds of social problems have emerged, exposing a social policy model based on charity and not on the emancipation and autonomy of individuals. In this context, social educators continue to work from a position of precariousness and invisibility. They do their best to work in and for a system that defends interests contrary to their own, finding themselves obliged to deal with such contradictions as working in social education while respecting social distances, or asking themselves whether they are really essential inasmuch as they represent a minimum service for subsistence that prevents the system from collapsing. A group of 22 students has taken the opportunity to reflect on this situation within the framework of the Supervision of Internship course. The group read up on the subject and interviewed educators, and the results are presented in this paper.      Keywords: Social education, COVID-19, experiential learning, reflective practice, university, students.&nbsp

    Usefulness of Chromogenic Media with Fluconazole Supplementation for Presumptive Identification of <i>Candida auris</i>

    Introduction:Candida auris is a major threat to public health. Rapid detection is essential for early treatment and transmission control. The use of chromogenic media allows the presumptive identification of this new species. The aim of this study is to describe the morphological characteristics of C. auris colonies on three commercial chromogenic media. Methods: Nineteen C. auris isolates from different countries/clades and 18 isolates of other species were cultivated in CHROMagarTM Candida Plus, HiCromeTM Candida, CHROMagar-Candida, and fluconazole-supplemented (32 mg/L) CHROMagar-Candida media. Results: On CHROMagarTM Candida Plus and HiCromeTM Candida, C. auris isolates from Colombia, Venezuela, India, Korea, and Japan displayed blue-shaded colonies, while isolates from Spain and Germany exhibited light pink shades with a bluish halo. All isolates showed white to pink colonies on CHROMagar-Candida. On CHROMagar Candida supplemented with fluconazole, whilst C. auris, C. glabrata, or C. krusei showed a similar pink color at 48 h incubation, phenotypic differentiation was possible by the rough, paraffin-like texture or the intense purple color acquired by C. krusei and C. glabrata, respectively. Moreover, in this medium, the presence of C. auris in combination with other species of similar color was not limiting for its early identification, due to this medium selecting only strains resistant to this antifungal. Conclusions: The use of chromogenic media such as CHROMagarTM Candida Plus facilitates a presumptive identification of C. auris. However, this identification can be difficult in the presence of mixed cultures. In these cases, the use of CHROMagarTM Candida medium with 32 mg/L fluconazole offers better performance for the identification of C. auris by inhibiting fluconazole-susceptible strains and selecting rare or high fluconazole MIC (>32 mg/L) isolates
