1. Participação das vias de estresse oxidativo na neuroproteção mediada pelo treinamento físico em fatias cerebrais submetidas à privação de oxigênio e glicose
Ischemia leads to a variety of pathological events, including excitotoxicity, inflammation, delayed neuronal dysfunction and cell death through hyperactivation of glutamate receptors and production of free radicals, such as nitric oxide (NO). The mechanism by which cerebral excess formation of NO, which mediates neuronal death involving energy depletion, lip

2. Ergonomic evaluation of operations in poultry production systems / Avaliação ergonômica em operações do sistema produtivo de carne de frango
Based on the importance of poultry production for the Brazilian economy and based on current demands of domestic and foreign markets with respect to production and processing of chicken meat, several aspects should be improved in the production chain in order to provide increased product quality with particular attention to safe working conditions for employ

3. Teste de fatores que afetam o tamanho da ninhada de Elaenia chiriquensis (Tyrannidae) do Cerrado do Brasil Central
The study of the selective pressures that determine clutch size is essential to understand lifehistory strategies. Brood manipulation studies are the standard tools for testing the influence of food availability, nest predation risk and increasing parental effort on limitation of clutch size. In order to assess the relative importance of food limitation to t

4. Antiprotozoal and molluscicidal activities of five Brazilian plants
Leishmaniasis, Chagas' disease and schistosomiasis (bilharzia) are parasitic diseases with wide distribution on the American continent, affecting millions of people. In the present study, biological assays for antiprotozoal and molluscicidal activities were carried out with ethanolic extracts of plant species from the Brazilian part of the Upper Paraná Rive

5. Effect of atmosphere and duration of incubation on primary isolation of group A streptococci from throat cultures.
The optimal incubation conditions for isolation of group A streptococci from throat cultures are controversial. Therefore, we compared the effects of aerobic and anaerobic incubations after 24 and 48 h on the recovery of group A streptococci. Throat swabs submitted to the clinical laboratory were inoculated onto duplicate 5% sheep blood agar plates, incubate

6. Comparison of Macroscopic, Microscopic, and Radiometric Examinations of Clinical Blood Cultures in Hypertonic Media
Clinical blood cultures were collected in the Bactec 8A flask (Johnston Laboratories, Cockeysville, Md.) and examined macrosopically, microscopically, and radiometrically in an effort to determine which approach produced the fastest detection time. Of 360 blood cultures found to contain organisms by subculture, 334 were first detected by Bactec, 98 by macros

7. Aberrant Forms of Escherichia coli in Blood Cultures: In Vitro Reproduction of an In Vivo Observation
Aberrant filamentous forms of Escherichia coli were observed on direct Gram stain of blood cultures from a patient being treated with the beta-lactam antibiotic cephalexin. After the institution of an alternative antibiotic regimen which included a different cell wall-active agent, E. coli of normal morphology was detected in blood cultures for an additional

8. Growth and Destruction of Salmonella typhimurium in Egg White Foam Products Cooked by Microwaves1
Currently, in both home and institutional food preparation, attempts are being made to produce high quality foods with a minimum of time and effort. Research is being carried out to develop equipment capable of cooking foods in a fraction of the time required by conventional methods; as a result, the problem arises as to the bacteriological safety of these p

9. Otic Lesions and Congenital Hypothyroidism in the Developing Chick*
In an effort to elucidate the relation, if any, between thyroid abnormality and congenital deafness in Pendred's syndrome, an experiment was designed to study the effects of hypothyroidism on middle and inner ear hearing structures, including the auditory nerve and its central projection, in developing chick embryos. Propylthiouracil (PTU), 2 mg, was injecte

10. An Evaluation of β-Propiolactone for the Sterilization of Fermentation Media1
Twenty-five bacterial species were cultured in basal broth plus 1 of 19 different carbohydrates which were sterilized by Seitz filtration, autoclaving (112 C, 10 min), or exposure to 0.2% β-propiolactone (BPL). No significant differences were found either in the visual observations for acid and gas, pH, or titrable acidity determinations after 3 days of inc

11. Time-motion and cost comparison study of micro-ID, API 20E, and conventional biochemical testing in identification of Enterobacteriaceae.
A total of 730 Enterobacteriaceae strains isolated from 567 cultures were evaluated by a rapid kit method (Micro-ID; General Diagnostics, Morris Plains, N.J.; 4 h), an overnight incubation kit method (API 20E; Analytab Products, Plainview, N.Y.), and conventional biochemical test methodology (mostly overnight incubation and some rapid methods) to compare the

12. Factors affecting the multiplication and subculture of Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum in a tissue culture system.
Limited multiplication of Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum (Nichols strain) can be obtained in the presence of Sf1Ep rabbit epithelial cell cultures, but continuous culture has not yet been achieved. In the system currently employed, growth is exponential for the first 10 to 15 days of culturing, after which multiplication and the percentage of motile orga
