Objective: This study's main objective was to analyze the antibiotic susceptibility profile of Escherichia coli isolates obtained from a fecal sample of a captive Baird's tapir (Tapirus bairdii) in Costa Rica. Materials and Methods: The fecal sample was collected inside the enclosure on March 3, 2017, right after the animal defecated. Samples were cultured on MacConkey agar plates nonsupplemented and supplemented with 2 μg/mL of cefotaxime. Bacterial identification and antibiotic susceptibility were ...

The main objective of this study was to analyse the antimicrobial susceptibility profile of Escherichia coli isolates obtained from faecal samples of free-ranging Baird's tapirs (Tapirus bairdii) in the northwestern region of the Talamanca Mountain Range, Costa Rica. Faecal samples were collected by opportunistic search of the study area from February–September 2017 during seven field expeditions. Escherichia coli isolates were recovered using selective and differential MacConkey agar medium and ...

Defining demographically independent units and understanding patterns of gene flow between them is essential for managing and conserving exploited populations. The critically endangered scalloped hammerhead shark, Sphyrna lewini , is a coastal semi-oceanic species found worldwide in tropical and subtropical waters. Pregnant females give birth in shallow coastal estuarine habitats that serve as nursery grounds for neonates and small juveniles, whereas adults move offshore and become highly migratory. ...

Background: Celiac disease (CD) is a smallintestine enteropathy that is caused by the ingestion of gluten protein in food. The main determinant found is the enzyme tissue transglutaminase, an enzyme of the small intestine. Thisstudy pretends to assess the validity of anti-tTGin patients admitted to HSJD with the diagnosisof CD, because the clinic experience suggests afewer sensitivity as the report in literature. Methods: The population studied was patientstwelve years or older with positive serology ...

A partir de las tesis elaboradas por el psicólogo social Erich Fromm (1977) respecto a los marcos de orientación y devoción que guían parte del comportamiento humano en sociedad, se construye un sistema teórico-metodológico cuyo objeto de estudio, categorías, subcategorías y ejes temáticos derivan en un instrumento denominado:“Cuestionario sobre marcos de orientación ética de estudiantes de la UNED”, el cual se utiliza en el proyecto de investigación de la Cátedra de Teología titulado: “¿Enqué creen ...

<p class="p1">La aplicación de la biotecnología incluye una serie de procesos industriales que involucran organismos vivos o partes de ellos. La interacción del genotipo con los demás factores de manipulación industrial, aunque controlables, provoca que el sistema sea estocástico o no determinista, caracterizado por acciones predecibles y con elementos aleatorios. La producción masiva de plantas in vitro es un ejemplo de este tipo de industrias biotecnológicas, en el que se cultivan plantas ...

In a public health system of a developing country, NSCLC mortality rates tend to be higher due to deficits in diagnostic and professional resources, long time interval between patient's symptoms and the initiation of treatment, and low access to innovative drugs. Multidisciplinary teams (MDT) improve the care of patients with NSCLC, but this practice is not common in developing countries. In Costa Rica more than 95% of cancer patients are treated in a public hospital where resources are limited. ...
