To verify the influence of processing methods on painted files (Pseudoplatystoma sp) wet salting was performed, with binary solution and ternary solution, dry salting, liquid smoking and powder smoke, microbiological analysis identified absence of Salmonella sp in both fresh and processed fillets and decreased Staphylococci in fillets after processing. The moisture obtained for fillets with dry salting was lower than that osmotically treated with binary and ternorian solutions, and in the smoked fillets the powder smoking presented lower humidity than the liquid smoking.

Objectif: Cette étude a été entreprise dans la Réserve naturelle de Bandia pour contribuer à une meilleure gestion de la diversité biologique du Sénégal. Elle se propose d’établir les spectres taxonomique, biologique et chorologique de la flore de Bandia et aussi d’étudier les paramètres floristiques àsavoir: la richesse spécifique, la fréquence de présence des espèces et l’indice de similitude de Sorensen. Méthodologie et résultats: Le travail de terrain a été effectué en faisant l’échantillonnage de la zone.

Objetivo: conhecer o uso de plantas medicinais entre pacientes da atenção primária em saúde de Campina Grande (PB), Brasil. Método: Estudo transversal, realizado mediante um questionário apropriado. Dados analisados por estatística descritiva e mediante o testeexato de Fischer, com nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: Entre os entrevistados (n=356), a maioriajá usou alguma planta medicinal (79,2%) adquirida em feiras e mercados (35,9%) oupor cultivo próprio (33,1%).Buscam informações sobre fitoterapia com familiares (46,3%) e, uma minoria, com algumprofissional de saúde (3,3%).

Sweet potatoes roots have become the focus of research in the past recent years due to their unique nutritional and functional properties. Under Brazilian climate conditions, sweet potato cultivar BRS Rubissol has high yield on average 40 tonnes per hectare and presents excellent quality for industrial processing; however, when the roots are stored at room temperature, the shelf life is over in two to four weeks due to the sprouting and weight loss (withered).

Aim: to investigate elderly octogenarians who declared themselves to be Catholic and Evangelical regarding sociodemographic aspects and health conditions, religious conping and the declared frequencies of private and public religious practices. Materials and methods: observational, correlational, descriptive, quantitative and qualitative cross-sectional study, carried out in the research project database “Patterns of cognitive and psychosocial physical aging in long-lived elderly people living in different contexts”.

The present work aimed to evaluate different proportions of decomposed babassu stem in the composition of substrates for vegetative propagation of bougainville. The experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design (CRD), with six treatments and four replications totaling 24 plots. The substrate (S) used was soil based with decomposed babassu stem (DBS), in the following proportions: 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% of DBS, plus soil.

Les connaissances sur la biodiversité mondiale sont fondamentales pour la conservation. Dans la région de Dakar (Sénégal) en particulier au sein de l’Université Cheikh Anta Diop a été créé un Jardin Botanique d’une superficie de 3 ha dont l’objectif été de conserver la flore du Sénégal dans son ensemble. Cependant, ce Jardin Botanique n’a pas atteint son objectif du fait d’un ensemble de contraintes parmi lesquelles un manque d’information sur sa liste floristique.

Objetivou-se com esse estudo avaliar o crescimento e o desempenho de mudas de pitangueira cultivadas em substratos com diferentes proporções de caule decomposto de babaçuzeiro (CDB). Adotou-se o delineamento inteiramente casualizado com 6 tratamentos e 4 repetições, referentes as proporções de CDB, acrescido de solo (Latossolo Amarelo distrófico), descritos da seguinte forma: S1=0% CDB; S2=20% CDB; S3=40% CDB; S4=60% CDB; S5=80% CDB; S6=100% CDB.

The objective of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of granulated fertilizers based on potassium chloride with humic acids in the production of dry matter and the accumulation of macronutrients in corn plants. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse, using soil samples from the 0-20 cm depth layer of a Planossoloháplico.

The purpose of this work is to determine the serum parameters and the hemogram of pigs reared in Côte d'Ivoire. This study involved 70 pigs (Large white, Landrace, Duroc, Pietrain, hybrid, Korhogo pig breeds) made up of 35 castrated males and 35 gilts from 14 farms whose ages vary between 8 and 10 months with an average live weight of 89.1 ± 13.6 kg. These animals, coming mainly from farms in the South, were selected at random. The blood of these animals was collected from the jugular vein in tubes with anticoagulant and tubes without anticoagulant and then analyzed in the laboratory.
