The first-line treatments for Chagas disease generate significant adverse effects that accentuate the health deterioration in patients. The need to generate alternative drugs has led to the development of studies in which parasites will express a fluorescent protein, and correlate this expression with protozoan population. We devised a methodology for monitoring the proliferation of Trypanosoma cruzi- GFP (Green Fluorescent Protein) in models in vitro and in vivo, using the equipment iBox-UVP. In vitro assays were initiated with a calibration curve using concentrations between 5x105 and 5x107 parasites/mL. Subsequently, with a proliferation curve, through fluorescence we determined the susceptibility of the parasites against the commercial drug Benznidazol (IC50= 5,3±1,3 μM). In vivo assays corroborated qualitatively the chemotherapeutic effect of Benznidazol (100 mg/kg/day) in C57BL/6 mice, starting from an inoculum of 2.5x105 parasites, making capture of fluorescence imaging every two days from day 1, and starting oral treatment on the sixth day. The correlation coefficient close to 1 obtained in the calibration curve showed that this quantification method of parasites is simple and robust; assays in vitro and in vivo allowed monitoring dose–dependent effects of Benznidazol agains T. cruzi-GFP. We have produced an innovative, rapid, non-invasive method that monitors in real time the chemotherapeutic response of anti-T. cruzi drugs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Much has been written about the effect of written corrective feedback (WCF) in a second language in the last fifteen years. Even though early studies show contradictory and controversial results, a growing body of research has recently demonstrated the efficacy of written corrective feedback in the acquisition of some linguistic features. However, still for many L2 researchers and teachers of writing, this approach is not very practical and even far from a real educational context. In addition, an emerging body of studies has researched how computer mediated communication can impact new forms of corrective feedback in the near future. Consequently, in this paper we introduce a research design for error correction in L2 writing, which is based on the robust methodology of the SLA studies, the relevance of the educational context of the studies of L2 writing and the role of technology in corrective feedback delivery.

The role of the effective and applied stress intensity factors (ΔKapp and ΔKeff) as driving forces in fatigue crack growth is analyzed. To make a reliable use of ΔKeff in design it is needed to show that this parameter depends only on the same parameters that are included in the expression of ΔKapp (the nominal stress, the crack size and the geometry function). To verify this behavior experimental K-increasing and K-decreasing tests were done with the same specimen. The closure factor U=ΔKeff/ΔK showed an accentuated variation with crack size in all the tests, so ΔKeff should not be used for design purposes. The experimental data are also presented in three dimensions finding similar results, although it is not possible to generalize the results with the data available. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study is a proposal to generate uses of industrial residues from sawmills of Pinus patula wood for the manufacturing of particleboards. The aims are to manufacture homogeneous particleboards with two density levels, determine their physical and mechanical properties and evaluate the results with German and Venezuelan standards. The average water absorption at 2 and 24 hours of both density levels of boards meets the requirements for both standards. The average thickness variation (swelling) by immersion en water at 2 and 24 hours for boards with average density of 767 kg m-3 meets the requirements for both standards. For the case of the panels with average density of 672 kg m-3 thickness variation at 24 hours meets the requirements of both standards, while the swelling at 2 hours does not. Regarding the mechanical properties both the modulus of rupture in static bending and tension perpendicular (internal bond) for both real density levels exceed the minimum accepted by standards, demonstrating that industrial residues from P. patula wood exhibit good technological characteristics for medium density particleboards manufacture.
