Malaria is a parasitic disease caused by the protozoan parasites Plasmodium species, and usually transmitted through the bite of a female Anopheles species mosquito. Plasmodium falciparum is regarded as the most lethal of the Plasmodium species and most efforts are geared towards its control. Hitherto, with no available vaccines, an antimalarial drug such as Chloroquine was the main stay in the clinical management of uncomplicated P. falciparum malari...

We performed aurora kinase gene expression analysis, in combination with FISH and micronucleus test, in buccal mucosa cells isolated from agricultural workers to better understand the dynamics of genomic instability in these groups of professionals. Two out of a total of 97 agricultural workers who consented to participate in the study (39 men and 58 women) reported a history of cancer based on a previously applied questionnaire. The participants were 28.4 years on average and were categorized i...

Blotting is a classical technique for detecting macro-biomolecules of interest from a mixture of molecules. The technique is generally composed of four steps: 1) gel electrophoresis-based separation of molecules, 2) blotting (transfer and immobilization) of separated molecules from the gel onto the membrane, 3) specific hybridization of probes to target molecules on the membrane, and 4) visualization of the probe/target molecule complex. The present article briefly introduces blotting techniques...

Agroforestry systems (SAFs) are an alternative for sustainable development as they enable the recovery of degraded areas and reduce deforestation, contributing to breaking the cycle of traditional family farming, so common in the Amazon region, which enables the recovery of soils, the increase of organic matter and soil fertility. Cocoa beans are grown and fermented in SAFs. According to the research, the significant appearance of endophytic microorganisms such as fungi in the cocoa bean can ben...

The speckle noise is considered one of the main causes of degradation in ultrasound image quality. Many despeckling filters have been proposed, which are always making a trade-off between noise suppression and loss of information. A class of despeckling methods based Non-Local Means (NLM) algorithm is known to efficiently preserve the edges and all fine details of an image while reducing the noise. The core idea of NLM filter is to estimate the denoised pixel by performing a weighted average of ...

Four hybrids between Serpocaulon species have been described, one of them S. × sessilipinnum was the only known hybrid between two different clades proposed by Smith et al. In this work, a new hybrid S. × orosiense is described, being the second known hybrid between clades: 1) Serpocaulon loriceum and 2) S. fraxinifolium. The detailed study of the intermediate morphology of the characters of the new taxon and their progenitors were made by ...
