La ciudad: ritmos y narraciones cotidianas
Full text linkThe rehearsal, The City, Rhythms and Daily Narrations, he/she makes a historical journey of the city from the first ones that
were founded in half fertile moon, being considered the first of them Jericó, until the contemporary Ecumenópolis.
The author leans on in Chueca Goitia’s theories, Peter Hall, Castell, Thin Manuel, George Duby, among others. This way it
is able to consolidate their proposal, which consists on presenting the city like that dynamic, changing cultural space, full with
rhythms and transformations, until being constituted in the spaces of cultural integration that exist at the present time.
This way, the city, was being configured until becoming in kind of a salvation for the humanity. In this sense, it is that the
course should be observed of happening urban: since the first towns arise due to the necessities of the men and the women,
until the appearance of the cities like forms of human expression. He/she is born, then, the educating city, narrated politics,
dreamt, imagined, and that he/she gives configuration to the rhythms and daily narrations here expressed.La ciudad, en sus ritmos y narraciones cotidianas, presenta una visión de los aspectos más significativos de cómo aparecieron
las primeras poblaciones en las cuales se asentaron los primeros pobladores urbanos y cómo se conformaron las grandes
urbes de hoy. Es una narración que tiene en cuenta la historia, la dinámica de la estructura arquitectónica, las tradiciones,
costumbres, formas de vida de los primeros poblados y la proyección que éstos tuvieron en la vida urbana actual.
El ensayo gira en una dimensión lineal, teniendo en cuenta espacios, tiempos, vida cotidiana y los diferentes ritmos que
asume la ciudad en su acontecer histórico. Por tanto, más allá de una reflexión en cuanto al tema urbano, de lo que se trata
es de una compilación sobre el mundo de la vida y la ciudad como alma de la historia urbana
Evaluation of the Antimicrobial Activity of American Cockroach (Periplaneta americana) Ethanolic Tissue Extract against Selected Enteric Pathogens
Full text linkGastrointestinal (GI) tract infections caused by pathogenic microorganisms have a significant role in the global increase in mortality. This issue sparked an investigation into metabolites derived from numerous organisms that may have antimicrobial property against bacterial infections. The Kirby-Bauer Disc Diffusion method was used to test the extract of the American cockroach (Periplaneta americana) against enteric bacteria. The results indicate that the ethanolic extract of P. americana exhibited antimicrobial activity against the test pathogens, with the greatest inhibitory activity against Vibrio parahaemolyticus (p = 0.00013) and Candida albicans (p = 0.000911), when compared to the antibiotic controls Rifampicin, Trimethoprim, Ofloxacin, Penicillin, and antifungal drug Nystatin. However, there was no evidence of inhibitory activity against Enterococcus faecalis, Salmonella enteritidis, and Serratia marcescens. Thus, the current findings indicate that P. americana tissue extract may have antibacterial activity against medically important pathogens
