Aims: The objective of this research has been to analyze the challenges posed by inquiry activities in the initial training of physics teachers. Methods: The present study was exploratory in nature. The sample was made up of 60 students from a physics teacher training program. The data were collected through the Mathematics and Science in Life questionnaire, MASCIL. Results and Discussion: showed that inquiry activities are a potential resource for science education. In addition, it was found that when the activities are implemented systematically (that is, planned and designed with well-defined purposes), both students and teachers are more active and committed in their participation, and students can improve their performance. Likewise, the results showed that teachers have positive views based on the benefits for students and science learning and perceive significant systemic and personal barriers to implementing IBSE even after decades of political efforts to improve science education. Teachers expressed frustration at the lack of time, teaching resources, classroom management, and the demands of delivery, evaluation, and accountability of the curriculum. Furthermore, there is an emphasis on practical activities and student motivation but not on cognitive and epistemic aspects showing points of view that are not well aligned with the current understanding of the type of research that best supports learning. Conclusions: The implications for research and practice suggest that there is still a need to expand knowledge on how to help teachers make the most of this strategy.","PeriodicalId":45103,"journal":{"name":"Periodico Tche Quimica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44830785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given this problem, alternative treatments, such as the use of essential oils, have been investigated. Essential oils containing linalool usually have high biological activity, despite this, few investigations have been dedicated to the biological activity of the essential oil of Aniba duckei, which has as major component linalool. Aim: In this work, we investigate the chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of the essential oil of the leaves of Aniba duckei obtained by hydrodistillation. Methods: The leaves and branches of the species Aniba duckei were collected in the state of Amazonas, Brazil, in the morning. The essential oil was obtained by the hydrodistillation method and characterized by GC/MS gas chromatography to identify the major components present in the oil. Soon after, the biological activity of the essential oil was tested using the Bauer Kirby method. The strains tested were Aeromonas caviae, Aeromonas hydrophila, Enterococcus faecalis and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Results and Discussion: The findings show that the major component of the oil is linalool. The most relevant secondary components are ?-terpineol, ?-copaene and ?-guaieno. As for biological activity, it was observed that the oil showed inhibition halos ranging from 10-22 mm, indicating strong activity against the microorganisms tested. Conclusions: The essential oil of Aniba duckei has potential for application as an antimicrobial agent.","PeriodicalId":45103,"journal":{"name":"Periodico Tche Quimica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42478284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Crohn's (CD) and Celiac (CeD) diseases are among chronic inflammatory diseases, and both cause chronic inflammation in the intestines. Both diseases are caused by polygenic, environmental, and lifestyle risk factors. Inflammation can perpetuate disease and cause it to become chronic. For this reason, CD and CeD that choose the intestine as the target organ may trigger each other. Although the relationship between these diseases is widely mentioned in the literature, scanty knowledge and research have been done on the immune mechanisms of these inflammatory diseases. Aim: This study aimed to determine hub genes, transcription factors-miRNAs, and protein-chemical interaction networks shared between CD and CeD. Methods: The NCBI-GEO datasets were downloaded and analyzed in GEO2R to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). STRING tool for Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) and NetworkAnalyst tool were used for Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA), Transcription factor (TF) - miRNA Coregulatory Networks, and Protein-Chemical Interactions. Results and Discussion: GSE11501 and GSE3365 datasets were utilized to recognize 54 DEGs in CD, and CeD. 13 of these commonly expressed genes were defined as hub genes. GSEA has indicated that these genes are associated with immune system processes, cellular defense response, proteolysis, and apoptosis. KAT6A and SPI1 are transcription factors that direct the continuity of intestinal epithelial cells. Antirheumatic agents and Methotrexate are likely to be used to treat these diseases. Conclusions: In conclusion, we think that delayed-type hypersensitivity resulting from epitope propagation is a common immune mechanism of CD and CeD. Given the increasing prevalence of both CD and CeD in the population, it is clear that more studies are needed to understand the shared pathogenesis and overlapping immune mechanisms of these diseases.","PeriodicalId":45103,"journal":{"name":"Periodico Tche Quimica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42311912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: Two tests were performed: in test 1, the heating started with a water bath at 22 ºC and was heated to 80 ºC. In test 2, the water bath started at 80 ºC. Results and Discussion: The convective heat transfer coefficient was analyzed in the wall region, and it is higher in test 2. In both tests, the curve graphic profile follows the same literature trend. Regarding vitamin C, in test 1, there was a reduction in it. In test 2, it remained constant. Conclusions: Studying the thermal behavior of orange juice is extremely important to ensure its quality.

The need to carry out cleaning validation is especially important when the drug product is the “worst-case” for the cleaning procedure regarding solubility, therapeutic potency, toxicity, and surface adherence of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). Estimation of API residues requires a selective and sensitive method capable of quantitative determination of API traces remaining over the surface of manufacturing equipment after the cleaning procedure. Aim: The present study demonstrates the suitability and the applicability of the proposed method obtained with a combination of a sensitive, selective, and specific analytical HPLC and effective swab wipe sampling procedures for quantitative estimation of terbinafine residues in samples collected from pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment surfaces and the efficiency of the developed standard procedure for cleaning of the shared manufacturing equipment in support of cleaning validation. Methods: The swab sampling procedure was developed to obtain a suitable recovery (>80 %). The surface (sampling area – 25 cm2) was wiped with one swab moistened with methanol. The analytical procedure was developed using the HPLC system “Agilent 1260 Infinity II” and BDS Hypersil C18 250×4.6 mm, 5 ?m column with an isocratic elution of mobile phase. Results and Discussion: The developed combined method was validated concerning chromatographic system suitability test, specificity, linearity range, accuracy, precision, the limit of detection (LOD), and quantitation (LOQ). The stability of terbinafine HCl solutions in methanol, the swab material, and membrane filter compatibility was also studied. The calibration curve was linear (R2=0.99999) over a concentration range 0.00003-0.025 mg/mL; LOD – 0.000015 mg/mL, and LOQ – 0.00003 mg/mL; The determined concentrations of terbinafine residues in test solutions were not more than 0.00090 mg/mL which are below the limit of cross-contamination of the next drug product. Conclusions: The performed analytical study using the developed method with a combination of an analytical HPLC and swab sampling procedures for estimation of terbinafine residues on surfaces of the pharmaceutical equipment used during the manufacture of Terbinafine HCl 250 mg uncoated tablets demonstrates the validity of the cleaning procedure.

Radiation from the Sun is an extensive source of tenable energy, and this radiation fades in the depth of the ocean waters, making it possible to take benefit. Aim: The purpose of this work was to settle a process of absorbing Sun radiation and converting it into energy by considering a couple of geographical coordinate points, with a great differential of temperatures in the Oceans around South America, to implement thermal machines. Methods: This work processes temperature data taken from the Tropical Atmosphere Ocean (TAO) project, maintained by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Pacific Environmental Laboratory (PMEL). Data were processed with Matlab 2009a Student Version. Water temperature implies the intensity degree of ocean heat energy. So, this study takes temperature data at Sea around South America to glean oceanic thermal energy means the Carnot machine method and gradients of temperatures. Results and Discussion: The more stable area annually to install thermal machines are farther than 35° from Panama Canal and Trujillo to the west meridian.
