A partir dos relatos fornecidos por esse privilegiado informante busco reconstituir entender processo sendo responsável pelo afastamento sociabilidades marítimas, elitização espaço...

Depois do 25 de abril 1974 – conhecido como Revolução dos Cravos ou Abril –, que depôs o regime ditatorial “Estado Novo”, uma movimentação profunda, marcada por combinação teatro tradição brechtiana, neorrealista e experimentalismo, foi ganhando espaço para constituir cena permeável a formas menos convencionais. Em sintonia com esse processo criativo, examino trajetória grupo A Barraca (dirigid...

the presence of anti-sperm antibodies (asa) in semen or serum may impair sperm function leading to immunological infertility. the aim of this study was to investigate the presence of asa on the surface of sperm and in circulating blood of infertile couples. in this cross sectional study, we studied 49 couples suffering from infertility for at least one year. serum asa (igg and iga classes) was ...

Multidrug resistance in bacteria is generally attributed to the acquisition of multiple transposons and plasmids bearing genetic determinants for different mechanisms of resistance (48, 62). However, descriptions of intrinsic mechanisms that confer multidrug resistance have begun to emerge. The first of these was a chromosomally encoded multiple antibiotic resistance (mar) locus (Fig. 1) in Esc...

Amplification of the dihydrofolate reductase gene (Dhfr) by methotrexate (Mtx) exposure is commonly used for recombinant protein expression in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. However, this method is both time- and labor-intensive, and the high-producing cells that are generated are frequently unstable in culture. Another gene amplification method is based on using a plasmid bearing a mammali...

Maleylacetate reductases (MAR) are required for biodegradation of several substituted aromatic compounds. To date, the functionality of two MAR-encoding genes (tfdF(I) and tfdF(II)) has been reported in Cupriavidus necator JMP134(pJP4), a known degrader of aromatic compounds. These two genes are located in tfd gene clusters involved in the turnover of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetate (2,4-D) and 3-ch...

BACKGROUND Multiple imputation (MI) is a well-recognised statistical technique for handling missing data. As usually implemented in standard statistical software, MI assumes that data are 'Missing at random' (MAR); an assumption that in many settings is implausible. It is not possible to distinguish whether data are MAR or 'Missing not at random' (MNAR) using the observed data, so it is desirab...
