Detección de toxoplasma en perros en una clínica veterinaria al sur de Quito con el test Toxoplasma IgG/ IgM durante marzo y abril de 2020
Toxoplasmosis is a disease produced by a protozoan parasite that is present in warm-blooded animals, so it can infect various mammals such as pets and humans, dogs are mechanical carriers of this disease (intermediate hosts) . The present study aimed to determine the presence of toxoplasma in dogs that are cared for in a veterinary clinic south of Quito by means of a rapid kit using blood samples, relating the presence of toxoplasma with risk factors, such as type of diet, habitat and coexistence with cats. In the present study, the Chi-square statistical test was used where the total of dogs sampled was 173 of which 24 were positive to the test. Of the dogs that were sampled, it was obtained that 7.51 percent of the population consumed homemade food and a P-value of 0.011 was obtained, 5.20 percent corresponds to the dogs that live indoors and a P-value of 0.001, which is why it was evidenced that the type of feeding and habitat variables are related to the presence of toxoplasma, while 8.09 percent corresponds to dogs that live with cats and a P-value of 0.750 was obtained, which shows that it is not is related to this variable, as sex, age, health status do not represent importance for the presence of toxoplasma. These results show that toxoplasmosis in dogs can be related to the lack of cooking of the food or the fact that the food is poorly washed for the consumption of their pets and at the same time that they have free access to the street since consumption is easy of contaminated food making them more vulnerable to toxoplasmosis.La toxoplasmosis es una enfermedad producida por un parásito protozoario que se encuentran presente en los animales de sangre caliente, por lo cual puede infectar a diversos mamíferos como a las mascotas y al ser humano, los perros son portadores mecánicos de esta enfermedad hospedadores intermediarios

Biblioteca pública local
In the sector there is an inconsistency at the morphological, road, land use level and shortage of equipment. The presence of the University of the Americas turned this area into an educational one, generating businesses and more movement in the area. Despite this, the potential of the area is not fully exploited due to failures in the growth of the city in the Study Area. Based on this, an urban plan is proposed that solves these problems from the public space, mobility and centrality, in order to improve life in the sector. In the same way, a series of equipments were implemented in the cultural axis located on Av. De los Granados, in which a Local Public Library was proposed to supply the needs of the sector and mainly the demand of the students of the University of the Americas, joining with the network of public libraries of the DMQ.En el sector existe una inconsistencia a nivel morfológico, vial, de uso de suelo y desabastecimiento de equipamientos. La presencia de la Universdad de las Américas conviritió a esta zona en educativa, generando comercios y mas movimiento en la zona. A pesar de esto, el potencial de la zona no se aprovecha en su totalidad debido a fallas en el crecimiento de la ciudad en el Área de Estudio. En base a esto se plantea un plan urbano que resuelva estas problematicas desde el espacio público, movilidad y centralidad, para de esta manera mejorar la vida en el sector. De igual manera se implementaorn una serie de equiapmientos en el eje cultural localizado en la Av. De los Granados, en el cual se planteó una Biblioteca Pública Local que abastezca a las necesidades del sector y principalmente a la demanda de los estudiantes de la Universidad de las Américas, juntadose con la red de bibliotecas públicas del DMQ

The present project aims at designing a safety plan based on the BRC Packaging standard, in the "Pot 90g" production line at Empaqplast company. For this purpose, a reengineering of the production and support processes was carried out. Initially, the company's process map was reviewed in order to identify the areas that will intervene in the implementation of the standard. After this, a correspondence matrix was created, in which all the clauses were detailed to determine the percentage of participation of the different areas. Taking into account that the company is certified in ISO9001:2015, it was compared with BRC Packaging V.6 by means of a table, thus obtaining the current situation of the organization. In order to carry out the risk assessment, a HACCP plan and a HARA team were created, which is made up of the process leaders of the different areas involved in the implementation of the standard. The information was collected by means of flow charts, detailing each of the process specifications, to later analyze the possible risks within the production lines. Once the Critical Control Points (CCP) had been determined, the HACCP bread was created, and control measures were defined to minimize risks. Finally, to establish the product protection plan, procedures, instructions and records were created in compliance with each of the specifications of the clauses of the BRC Packaging standard. With the purpose of guaranteeing the quality, security and legality of the product, to achieve the certification in this norm. Through a summary table of the project's progress, the compliance with the schedule established by the company for the implementation was evidenced.El presente proyecto tiene como objetivo el diseñar un plan de inocuidad basado en la norma BRC Packaging, en la línea de producción “Pote 90 gramos” en la empresa Empaqplast..
Revisión sistemática del uso de feromona facial sintética en pacientes felinos para el manejo de comportamiento indeseable
In recent years, the trend of cats as pets at home has increased significantly. This is why the feline facial pheromone could be included as an effective tool of management due to more cases of felines patients than canines. Feline medicine is one of the most complex branches in veterinary medicine, this is because cats are temperamental animals, causing a significant number of accidents due to attacks such as bites, pointed out by the World Health Organization (WHO) in the year 2013.
The present work has the aim of this study to perform a systematic review on the use of synthetic facial pheromone in feline patients for the management of unwanted behavior, collecting information from selected scientific articles obtained once the formula has been made in the Scopus database, through the formula made with Boléan connectors and keywords to exclude articles that are not related to the topic and then using the PRISM method and rating each article with the help of the platform Ficha de lectura crítica 3.0, using only the articles with high marks, in order to obtain the results of each researcher, analyzing and comparing them, to know if the results coincide on the research question, which would tell us whether the use of synthetic facial pheromone does or does not allow controlling unwanted behaviors in cats. The number of articles obtained with the research formula were 149 of which 141 articles were excluded. When evaluating each article only 5 obtained a high rating, and were used for the systematic review. Finally, it is determined that the effectivity of the FFS is related to the time that the cat is exposed to the FFS, and the same time there is a lack of evidence on whether sex is related to the FFS effectivity.En los últimos años la tendencia de gatos como animales de compañía en el hogar aumentado significativamente, es por esto que la feromona facial sintética podría ser considerada como una herramienta de manejo efectiva debido a que a consulta cada vez llegan más casos felinos que caninos. La medicina felina es una de las ramas más complejas en la medicina veterinaria, esto se debe a que los gatos son animales temperamentales, causantes de una cantidad significativa de accidentes por agresiones como mordeduras, señalados por la organización mundial de la salud (OMS) en el año 2013. El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo general realizar una revisión sistemática sobre el uso de feromona facial sintética en pacientes felinos para el manejo de comportamiento indeseado, recopilando información de artículos científicos seleccionados obtenidos una vez realizada la fórmula en la base de datos Scopus, mediante la fórmula realizada con palabras claves y conectores boléanos para ir excluyendo los artículos que no tengan relación con el tema por medio del método PRISMA y calificando cada artículo con la ayuda de la plataforma de fichas de lectura crítica 3.0, utilizando únicamente los artículos con calificación alta, con el fin de recopilar los resultados obtenidos por cada investigador, analizarlos y compararlos, para saber si los resultados coinciden sobre la pregunta de investigación lo cual nos diría si el uso de feromona facial sintética si permite o no permite controlar los comportamientos indeseados en gatos. La cantidad de artículos obtenidos con la fórmula de búsqueda fueron 149 de los cuales 141 fueron excluidos. Al evaluar cada artículo únicamente 5 obtuvieron una calificación alta usándolos para la revisión sistemática. Finalmente se determinó que la efectividad está relacionada al tiempo que se expone al gato a la FFS, y a su vez falta evidencia sobre si el sexo tiene relación a la efectividad de la FF
