RESUMEN

O melão de caroá é da família das curcubitáceas encontrada de forma nativa na região do Recôncavo Baiano, onde é muito utilizada pela medicina popular para diversas enfermidades, porém é espécie muito pouco explorada pela pesquisa. O trabalho teve por objetivo estudar diferentes substratos para avaliar o índice de germinação e vigor de sementes de melão de caroá (Sicana odorifera) na produção de mudas. Utilizaram-se como substratos areia lavada, areia lavada com húmus de minhoca (2:1) e substrato comercial Plantmax®. Foram realizadas as seguintes avaliações: teste de germinação, índice de velocidade de emergência (IVE), diâmetro de haste, altura de planta, comprimento da raiz, massa seca da raiz, haste e folhas. O substrato comercial Plantmax®promoveu melhor desempenho das sementes em relação aos demais, porém, o mais adequado e de baixo custo para produção de mudas através de sementes de melão de caroá (Sicana odorifera) foi a mistura de areia lavada e húmus de minhoca na proporção 2:1.


Caroá melon is a curcubitaceae found in its native form in the Recôncavo Region of Bahia, where it is used by popular medicine for many diseases. However, this species is little explored in research. The objective of the present work was to study different substrates in order to evaluate the germination index and seed vigor in caroá melon (Sicana odorifera) during seedling production. The following substrates were used: washed sand, sand washed with worm humus (2:1) and commercial substrate, Plantmax®.The following evaluations were carried out: germination test, speed of germination index (SGI), stem diameter, plant height, root length and root, stem and leaf dry matter. The commercial substrate Plantmax® presented the best performance compared to the others; however, the most adequate and least costly in seedling production using caroá melon (Sicana odorífera) seeds, was the mixture of washed sand and worm humus in the 2:1 ratio.

RESUMEN

The present study examined the distribution of hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotypes and subtypes in a hemodialysis population in Goiás State, Central Brazil, and evaluated the efficiency of two genotyping methods: line probe assay (LiPA) based on the 5' noncoding region and nucleotide sequencing of the nonstructural 5B (NS5B) region of the genome. A total of 1095 sera were tested for HCV RNA by RT-nested PCR of the 5' noncoding region. The LiPA assay was able to genotype all 131 HCV RNA-positive samples. Genotypes 1 (92.4 percent) and 3 (7.6 percent) were found. Subtype 1a (65.7 percent) was the most prevalent, followed by subtypes 1b (26.7 percent) and 3a (7.6 percent). Direct nucleotide sequencing of 340 bp from the NS5B region was performed in 106 samples. The phylogenetic tree showed that 98 sequences (92.4 percent) were classified as genotype 1, subtypes 1a (72.6 percent) and 1b (19.8 percent), and 8 sequences (7.6 percent) as subtype 3a. The two genotyping methods gave concordant results within HCV genotypes and subtypes in 100 and 96.2 percent of cases, respectively. Only four samples presented discrepant results, with LiPA not distinguishing subtypes 1a and 1b. Therefore, HCV genotype 1 (subtype 1a) is predominant in hemodialysis patients in Central Brazil. By using sequence analysis of the NS5B region as a reference standard method for HCV genotyping, we found that LiPA was efficient at the genotype level, although some discrepant results were observed at the subtype level (sensitivity of 96.1 percent for subtype 1a and 95.2 percent for subtype 1b). Thus, analysis of the NS5B region permitted better discrimination between HCV subtypes, as required in epidemiological investigations.

RESUMEN

Os autores analisaram 46 pacientes portadores de neoplasias malignas dos seios paranasais, objetivando comparar as mudanças radiológicas, definindo variaçöes anatômicas e suas inerentes implicaçöes cirúrgicas. Enfatizam a necessidade da obtençäo de um diagnóstico mais precoce, utilizando os métodos modernos de diagnóstico por imagem, pois clinicamente o diagnóstico precoce é impossível
