Ponte, Diego Rodrigues da; Monteiro, Andre Jalles; Duarte, Emivânia Viana Bezerra; Sakata, Ravi Yuiji Couto; Bezerra, Carla Raquel de BritoEm meio ao cenário de seca que o Ceará vem enfrentando, com médias de chuvas cerca de 50% menores em relação a médias anteriores segundo a Funceme, e com o intuito de tornar mais eficaz o aproveitamento da água na Pró-Reitora de Graduação da UFC, a Coordenadoria de Geral de Programas Acadêmicos (CGPA) pesquisou alternativas para o grande consumo de água empregada nos jardins e iniciou um projeto, já conhecido n...
Análise de projetos de monitoria de graduação
Freitas, João Victor Bastos de; Serra, Karen Kappaun Theobald; Sousa, Bruna Gabrielle Costa; Monteiro, Andre JallesA Monitoria de Projetos da Graduação é uma ação promovida anualmente pela Pró-Reitoria de Graduação, que visa a melhoria na ambientação, dos novos alunos ingressantes na UFC, e o combate à evasão. Suas atividades ainda são pouco conhecidas, por parte da comunidade acadêmica. Este trabalho tem por objetivo fazer um estudo sobre a monitoria de projetos através de uma análise de dados coletados durante o semestre ...
Factors related to HIV/tuberculosis coinfection in a Brazilian reference hospital
Carvalho, Braulio Matias de; Grangeiro, Thalles Barbosa; Monteiro, Andre Jalles; Pires Neto, Roberto da Justa; Frota, Cristiane CunhaInfection with both Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Mycobacterium tuberculosis is currently the world's leading cause of death due to infectious agents. We evaluated factors related to the development of tuberculosis (TB) in HIV-infected patients who were being treated at an infectious diseases hospital in Fortaleza, Ceara, Brazil. From January 2004 to December 2005, we made an epidemiological study thro...
Cotrimoxazole enhances the in vitro susceptibility of Coccidioides posadasii to...
Medrano, Delia Jessica Astete; Cordeiro, Rossana de Aguiar; Marques, Francisca Jakelyne de Farias; Andrade, Heuziwanne Tavares LeiteThe aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of cotrimoxazole on the in vitro susceptibility of Coccidioides posadasii strains to antifungals. A total of 18 strains of C. posadasii isolated in Brazil were evaluated in this study. The assays were performed in accordance with the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute guidelines and the combinations were tested using the checkerboard method. The m...
Ciprofloxacin shows synergism with classical antifungals against Histoplasma ca...
Caetano, Erica Pacheco; Brilhante, Raimunda Sâmia Nogueira; Sidrim, José Júlio Costa; Cordeiro, Rossana de Aguiar; Camargo, Zoilo Pires deThis study evaluated the in vitro interaction between ciprofloxacin (CIP) and classical antifungals against Histoplasma capsulatum var. capsulatum in mycelial (n = 16) and yeast-like forms (n = 9) and Coccidioides posadasii in mycelial form (n = 16). This research was conducted through broth microdilution and macrodilution, according to Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute. Inocula were prepared to obtain fr...
Synergistic Effect of Antituberculosis Histoplasma capsulatum var. capsulatum D...
Caetano, Érica Pacheco; Cordeiro, Rossana de Aguiar; Marques, Francisca Jakelyne de Farias; Brilhante, Raimunda Sâmia NogueiraThis study evaluated in vitro interactions of antituberculosis drugs and triazoles against Histoplasma capsulatum. Nine drug combinations, each including an antituberculosis drug (isoniazid, pyrazinamide, or ethambutol) plus a triazole (itraconazole, fluconazole, or voriconazole), were tested against both growth forms of H. capsulatum. Stronger synergistic interactions were seen in isoniazid or pyrazinamide plu...
Fungal microbiota dynamics as a postmortem investigation tool: focus on Aspergi...
Caetano, Erica Pacheco; Sidrim, José Júlio Costa; Moreira Filho, Renato Evando; Cordeiro, Rossana de Aguiar; Rocha, Marcos Fábio GadelhaAims: To investigate the presence of fungi during three human decomposition stages: bloated, putrefaction and skeletonization. Methods and Results: The samples were gathered in the city of Fortaleza, Ceara´ , Brazil, from the public morgue and cemeteries. The material was submitted to conventional mycological procedures by direct examination and macro ⁄ micro morphological and biochemical analyses. The main fun...
Glucose and lactose as cryoprotectants for fungal strains immobilised in sodium...
Rocha, Marcos Fábio Gadelha; Lima, Daniel Teixeira; Brilhante, Raimunda Sâmia Nogueira; Cordeiro, Rossana de Aguiar; Monteiro, Andre JallesThis research aimed at investigating the cryoprotectant action of glucose and lactose on strains of Malassezia spp. and zygomycetes immobilised in sodium alginate. Twelve strains of Malassezia spp. (nine M. furfur, two M. globosa and one M. sympodialis) and 12 zygomycetes (five Rhizopus oryzae and seven Mucor hiemales) were immobilised in sodium alginate, within plastic beads, maintained in appropriate media co...
Characterization of the gastrointestinal yeast microbiota of cockatiels ( Nymph...
Brilhante, Raimunda Sâmia Nogueira; Castelo-Branco, Débora de Souza Collares Maia; Soares, G.D.P.; Astete-Medrano, Délia Jéssica; Monteiro, Andre JallesCockatiels are the world’s second most popular psittacine pet bird, but no data characterizing their gastrointestinal microbiota have been found. Thus, the aim of this work was to characterize the yeast gastrointestinal microbiota of cockatiels and to evaluate the relevance of cockatiels as carriers of potentially pathogenic yeasts. A total of 60 cockatiels, from 15 different premises, were assessed. A thorough...
