This book focuses on the current and potential applications of microalgae and cyanobacteria in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and cosmeceuticals. The book deals with the very recent and advanced techniques and technologies in algal cultivation and extraction for its application. The chapters discuss the biological importance, properties, and uses of algal metabolites and microalgae-based compounds in drug development, in food nutrition enhancement, and in the development of cosmetics with medicinal properties. The chapter authors cover a range of diverse topics on algal biological resources, such as: algae as a nutraceutical and functional food ingredient the extraction of food bioactive c...
O livro Programa Residência Pedagógica no IF Baiano: reconfigurações da docência em tempos de pandemia aborda as ações desenvolvidas no Programa Residência Pedagógica do Instituto Federal Baiano edição 2020-2022. O advento da pandemia da COVID-19 fez com que as instituições de ensino precisassem se reinventar. As medidas necessárias de isolamento social trouxeram grandes desafios, gerando uma reconfiguração da prática docente em um curto período. Desafios que foram enfrentados por docentes em todo o mundo e, consequentemente, pelos preceptores e licenciandos do Programa. A presente obra reúne nove textos que apresentam um panorama do projeto institucional IF Baiano e sua dinâmica e concretização em meio a pandemia. A obra se destina a todas as pessoas interessadas na formação de professores e se destaca por ter sido construído por licenciandos(as), professores da educação básica e professores do Instituto Federal Baiano que atuam nos cursos de licenciatura.
O livro apresenta uma coletânea de textos que investigam a interação entre Saúde e Educação como uma cooperação fundamental para o sucesso em todos os graus de ensino. Os capítulos expressam, em sua estrutura e constituição, os diferentes contextos de atuação e progresso. Alguns capítulos discutem o ambiente escolar tanto dentro quanto fora das instalações da escola, seja no aspecto físico ou virtual, considerando educadores e agentes de saúde como colaboradores na formação dos indivíduos. É reconhecido que ter saúde implica possuir condições apropriadas para aprender, conviver e se socializar. Assim, esta obra traz reflexões de pesquisadores das diversas áreas do conhecimento com abordagens pedagógicas que expressam várias experiências educativas, apresentando resultados parciais ou finalizados de estudos e vivências representados por meio de diversos saberes, práticas e perspectivas interdisciplinares relacionadas à saúde.
There are alarming reports of new and emerging microbial diseases. The recent emergence of COVID-19 is a burning example that has attracted global attention. Not only this, the development of multidrug resistance in microbes is frightening and thus the available antibiotics have been ineffective. Considering these facts, there is a pressing need to develop effective treatment options that are eco-friendly, biobased, and cost-effective. The present book covers the natural/bio-based products from plants, mushrooms and microbes that can be used against different microbial diseases caused by viruses, bacteria and fungi. This book would be an essential reading for students, researchers and people from pharma industries. Key features: • Describes the biobased natural products to combat microbial diseases. • Examines the antimicrobial potential of mushrooms, endophytes and secondary metabolites. • Discusses the role of defensins and terpenes in microbial diseases. • Incorporates natural products from the Amazon for treating microbial diseases.
A JORNADA DE ENFERMAGEM DA UERR foi elaborada em 2017, com finalidade de PROMOÇÃO E DIVULGAÇÃO CIENTÍFICA acerca de conhecimentos da saúde e enfermagem, buscando incentivar e compartilhar experiências entre estudantes e docentes. Trata-se de evento proposto pelo Curso de Enfermagem da UERR para oportunizar um espaço de autonomia de fala, com finalidade de divulgação dos resultados de pesquisas desenvolvidas por meio de Trabalhos de Conclusão de Curso – TCC, projetos de iniciação científica e relatos de experiência desenvolvidos por acadêmicos e orientados por docentes do curso. Em 2018 e 2019, a submissão de trabalhos foi aberta à todas as instituições de ensino do município de Boa Vista/RR, que contavam com a oferta do Curso de Enfermagem. Reconhecendo que a informação assume um papel de destaque como estratégia e ferramenta de conhecimento, após o período de pandemia de COVID-19, o Colegiado do Curso de Enfermagem da UERR almeja manter, anualmente, a proposta de realização da Jornada de Enfermagem. Nesta obra apresentamos os resumos dos principais trabalhos.
This volume showcases the presentations and discussions delivered at the 2018 POMS International Conference in Rio. Through a collection of selected papers, it is possible to review the impact and application of operations management for social good, with contributions across a wide range of topics, including: humanitarian operations and crisis management, healthcare operations management, sustainable operations, artificial intelligence and data analytics in operations, product innovation and technology in operations management, marketing and operations management, service operations and servitization, logistics and supply chain management, resilience and risk in operations, defense, and tourism among other emerging Operations Management issues. The Production and Operations Management Society (POMS) is one of the most important and influential societies in the subject of Production Engineering and, as an international professional and academic organization, represents the interests of professionals and academics in production management and operations around the world.
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.
