This study embraces the bacterial flora of medicinal leeches in Karagöl (Kahramanmaraş). For this purpose, we took samples of blood, stomach, intestine and mouth from the leeches (Hirudo verbana), which were captured in the autumn and winter of 2016 and spring and summer of 2017 in Karagol, at the laboratory. For the isolation of the bacteria; Tryptic Soy Agar (TSA) and Brain Heart Infusiyon Agar (BHIA) was used. These media were incubated in an incubator at 24°C for 48 hours.

The pollutants and drastic environmental variation have also adversely effected and changed water qualities i.e. colour, hardness, turbidity , alkalinity, pH. COD, BOD and TDS etc. Aquatic life, thus, also is affected. Changes in morphology of amphibian, like- colour, pigmentation, length, weight mass, etc. may occur. This can not be ignored that the afore-mention variation may be responsible to develop new varieties or sub species. Unfortunately, negligible work is done in relation to amphibian fauna of the area in recent-past.

Obesity is considered a pandemic and is associated with numerous health risks such as dyslipidemia, hypertension, overweight/obesity and metabolic syndrome, which are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The bioactive compounds present in fruits, vegetables and oilseeds have biological effects on glycemic control, cholesterol levels, body weight, and therefore on CVD prevention. Elaeisguineenses is a palm of African origin, and from its fruits, it is possible to extracted oil. The fruits have an excellent repertoire of phytochemicals, carotenoids, tocopherols, and tocotrienols.

Technology in farming systems has been considered an element for agricultural development, needed to increase the competitiveness. Nevertheless, it’s study has ignored the human resources role in technological innovation. The study’s goal was to determine the human resources’ influence in technological innovation in sheep production systems in the towns of Epitacio Huerta and Contepec, Michoacan, Mexico. The information was gathered from 47 production units and the data was analyzed by frequency analysis and Rho correlation from Spearman.

Tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum L.) is one of the crops most widespread throughout the world, but it is very sensitive to the attacks of the cryptogamic diseases due to the excess of moisture of ground. The use of the synthetic pesticides is an effective means to control the diseases which fight this crop in order to avoid significant losses of yield fruits.

This article introduces us to a large extent, in a set of conceptual and postulated aspects, obtained after the bibliographic consultation and organized in a coherent way about the territory, the city and the region according to the constitution of the global process, ending with the strengths that distinguish the state, and that coincidentally are conducive to globalization, given that companies worldwide seek to locate where they obtain better advantages to produce goods and services, preferably looking for skilled labor, abundant, but also cheap.

This essay presents the partial results of a research study conducted at the Discourse Analysis Research Laboratory (Laboratório de Pesquisa em Análise de Discurso, or LAPADis) on the Operation One-Fifth of the Goldand the interference of this case in the exercise of democracy and in the violation of fundamental human rights. The analysis is founded upon theoretical presuppositions that articulate Memory, Law and Discourse Analysis.

This research aims to discuss the scientific status of human ecology in Brazil. As a methodological proposal, a bibliographic review was conducted on the topic, using the contributions of national authors, which allowed the analysis of information through the construction of articulated links. To do this, the following points were established as parameters for the evaluation of scientific status: the existence of concepts; hypotheses and propositions; and methods and research techniques specific to human ecology.

This work aims to present the constitution of a new category of subject, who is treated here as pixel-citizen. Since he (or she) is a subject that doesn't dwell in the territorial geopolitical space, but is rather a dot in the Internet Protocol, he indicates how the meanings of space, time and body have suffered changes and divergences from those instituted throughout modern philosophy.

The aim of this study is to investigate the constraints on English-Arabic-English Code-switching. It is an attempt to trace the phenomena in terms of matrix/guest language and constraints. It investigates the components of switching with respect to the morphological and structural typological constraints. The present study is important because it provides a better understanding of the constraints of code switching phenomenon.
