The anti-obesity, appetite suppressant, diuretic and hipolipidemic effect of dried powdered leaves of Cordia salicifolia Cham (CS) were investigated. CS (20 mg.kg-1.day-1) dissolved in water was daily administered by gavage during 13 days. In contrast with the popular use as anti-obesity, appetite suppressant and diuretic, no effect were detected. However, hipolipidemic effect was observed in normal and alloxan-diabetic rats. |

The aim of this work was to study the occurrence of Aeromonas sp in the bottled mineral water, well water and tap water from the municipal supplies. Positive samples were found for Aeromonas spp. 12.7% from the mineral water, 8.3% from the artesian water and 6.5% from the tap water. The recovery of Aeromonas spp. was significantly higher in the bottled mineral and artesian water than in the tap water from municipal supplies. The occurrence of the Aeromonas spp. did not correlate significantly with the contamination indicator bacteria (i.e. total coliforms) in the artesian water samples. However, a significant correlation was found between Aeromonas spp. and total coliforms in the both mineral water and tap water samples. The presence or absence of a... |

The present study was designated to evaluate the antibacterial activities of aqueous and ethanol:water extracts from leaves, roots and stem bark of Psidium guajava L. The antibacterial activities of the extracts against bacteria were tested by using both microdilution assay. The aqueous extracts of P. guajava leaves, roots and stem bark were active against the gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus (MICs=500, 125 and 250 µg/ml, respectively) and Bacillus subtilis (MICs=500 µg/ml), and virtually inactive against the gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MICs >1000 µg/ml). The ethanol:water extracts showed higher antimicrobial activity as compared to aqueous extracts. Based on this finding, the ethanol:water extract of... |

In Brazil and other regions of the world, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter spp. have emerged as important agents of nosocomial infection and are commonly involved in outbreaks. The main objective of the present study was to evaluate the genetic relationship among P. aeruginosa and Acinetobacter spp. isolated from patients in a public university hospital in northwestern Paraná, Brazil, and report their antimicrobial resistance profile. A total of 75 P. aeruginosa and 94 Acinetobacter spp. isolates were phenotypically identified and tested for antibiotic susceptibility using automated methodology. Polymyxin B was tested by disk diffusion for P. aeruginosa. Metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) was detected using a disk approximation test. Genotyping was... |

A Calendula officinalis L., pertence à família Asteraceae, é originária da Europa e está aclimatada na região Sul do Brasil, onde vem crescendo o seu cultivo comercial para fins farmacêuticos e cosméticos. Suas inúmeras propriedades terapêuticas entre as quais antiinflamatória, cicatrizante e anti-séptica, justificam a grande procura desta planta pela população. O presente trabalho compara a composição química da fração volátil da cultura de calêndula aclimatada na região Noroeste do Paraná, com os dados da literatura da cultura na França. As substancias químicas majoritários identificadas por cromatografia gasosa acoplada à espectrometria de massas (CG/MS), nas duas culturas, foram sesquiterpenos hidrocarbonetos e álcoois; d-cadineno (22,53%) e a-cadinol... |

Objetivou-se avaliar duas vias de administração de probiótico sobre o desempenho, o rendimento de carcaça e a população microbiana do intestino delgado de codornas de corte. Foram utilizadas 1.050 codornas machos e fêmeas de 1 dia de idade distribuídas em delineamento inteiramente casualizado com três tratamentos (controle, probiótico na água bebida e probiótico na ração) e cinco repetições de 70 aves. A cada sete dias, foram avaliados o ganho de peso, o consumo de ração, a conversão alimentar e a viabilidade criatória. Aos 7 e aos 14 dias, 15 aves foram abatidas para determinação da contagem de Lactobacillus sp., enterobactérias e Escherichia coli do intestino delgado e, aos 35 dias, 30 aves foram abatidas para avaliação do rendimento de carcaça e de... |
