La presente investigación, tuvo como objetivo elaborar un abono orgánico a través del tratamiento biológico de los residuos orgánicos del comedor de la Universidad Católica Sedes Sapientiae (UCSS) Sede Lima, mediante un proceso fermentativo accionado por una cepa de Lactobacillus fermentum Beijerinck aislada de la chicha de siete semillas. Con ello, se posibilita una alternativa para reducir los impactos ambientales negativos de los residuos orgánicos de los restaurantes o comedores no tratados adecuadamente. Se aislaron varias muestras de chicha de siete semillas, de las cuales se seleccionó La Verídica [(1) 10-6 [A1]], código que hace referencia al nombre del establecimiento comercial “La Verídica” en donde la chicha fue adquirida. La muestra presentó una caracterización morfológica bacilar y Gram positivo, en tanto la caracterización bioquímica resultó ser de cata...

Mpox is a zoonotic disease that became epidemic in multiple countries in 2022. There is a lack of published systematic reviews on natural animal infection due to Mpox. We performed a systematic literature review with meta-analysis to assess animal Mpox prevalence. We performed a random-effects model meta-analysis to calculate the pooled prevalence and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) for prevalence studies. After the screening, 15 reports were selected for full-text assessment and included in qualitative and quantitative analyses. Ten reports assessed Mpox infection by molecular or serological tests (n = 2680), yielding a pooled prevalence of 16.0% (95%CI: 3.0–29.0%) for non-human primates; 8.0% (95%CI: 4.0–12.0%) for rodents and 1.0% (95%CI: 0.0–3.0%) for shrews. Further studies in other animals are required to define the extent and importance of natural infection due to Mpox. Thes...
