    Bases epidemiológicas para el control estratégico de la garrapata común del bovino Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus

    No full text
    La aplicación de acaricidas químicos sintéticos sobre los bovinos es, al día de hoy, la principal herramienta disponible para el control exitoso de la garrapata Rhipicephalus(Boophilus) microplus. A pesar de la disponibilidad de acaricidas comerciales formulados con distintos grupos químicos (piretroides, organofosforados, formamidinas, benzoilureas, fenilpirazoles, avermectinas) o combinaciones de los mismos, el surgimiento de poblaciones de garrapatas resistentes a uno o más grupos de drogas constituye una limitante para la aplicación y eficacia de estas herramientas. Otro problema relevante asociado al empleo de acaricidas químicos sintéticos es aquel relacionado a las restricciones para el consumo de la carne o leche que imponen los períodos de carencia de determinados principios activos, que tienen un impacto directo en su comercialización. La casi exclusiva dependencia de los acaricidas químicos sintéticos para el control de la garrapata común del bovino, asociada a los problemas de resistencia y contaminación, ponen en evidencia la necesidad de aplicar esquemas de tratamientos garrapaticidas que minimicen el número y la frecuencia de los mismos, pero que alcancen niveles de eficacia compatibles con los parámetros productivos y económicos de los establecimientos ganaderos.EEA RafaelaFil: Nava, Santiago.

    How Did I Get to Princess Margaret? (And How Did I Get Her to the World Wide Web?)

    No full text
    The paper explores the growing use of tools from the arts and humanities for investigation and dissemination of social science research. Emerging spaces for knowledge transfer, such as the World Wide Web, are explored as outlets for "performative social science". Questions of ethnics and questions of evaluation which emerge from performative social science and the use of new technologies are discussed. Contemporary thinking in aesthetics is explored to answer questions of evaluation. The use of the Internet for productions is proposed as supporting the collective elaboration of meaning supported by Relational Aesthetics. One solution to the ethical problem of performing the narrations of others is the use of the writer's own story as autoethnography. The author queries autoethnography's tendency to tell "sad" stories and proposes an amusing story, exemplified by "The One about Princess Margaret" (see Appendix). The conclusion is reached that the free and open environment of the Internet sidelines the usual tediousness of academic publishing and begins to explore new answers to questions posed about the evaluation and ethics of performative social science

    Identification of author profiles through social networks

    No full text
    The aim of this paper is to compile dictionaries of slang words, abbreviations, contractions, and emoticons to help the pre-processing of texts published in social networks. The use of these dictionaries is intended to improve the results of the tasks related to data obtained from these platforms. Therefore, a hypothesis was evaluated in the task of identifying author profiles (author profiling).Silva, JesúsMaria Santodomingo, Nicolas EliasRomero, LigiaJorge, MarisolHerrera, MaritzaPineda Lezama, Omar Bonerg

    Alternative applications of the strategic control against the cattle tick Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus in a subtropical area

    No full text
    Although different evaluations on the efficacy of the strategic control against Rhipicephalus microplus have been performed, the effects of successive applications of these schemes on the abundance of cattle ticks have not been evaluated. The aim of this work was to analyse the long-term effect of strategic applications of chemical acaricides on the R. microplus infestation in cattle in a subtropical area. These schemes are based on the application of three annual treatments between late winter and late spring. Additionally, a trial to evaluate the efficacy of the strategic control by deferring the first treatment from late winter to spring and the third treatment from late spring to summer was also carried out. The efficacy of the strategic control applied on 3 consecutive years was significant. The tick infestation in the treated group always remained at low levels, because mean number of ticks was almost never higher than 20. Regarding the trial where the third application of acaricide was deferred from spring to summer, and the first one from late winter to spring, the differences between treated and control group were significant in all post-treatment counts. The results of this study add evidence that support the sustainability of the strategic control in subtropical areas where the population dynamics of R. microplus is characterized by a well-marked seasonal pattern. Three relevant aspects were determined: (i) the feasibility and efficacy of successive applications of the strategic control in consecutive years; (ii) the time window to start the sequence of treatments is from late winter to mid-spring; (iii) it is achievable deferring the last treatment from late spring to summer if the tick infestation levels on cattle are low enough to allow it.EEA RafaelaFil: Nava, Santiago.
