We did the chemical bromatological determination of Mespilus germánca L. (Nispero de palo) from Vilcashuaman province, Ayacucho region - Peru. The evaluation had the following results expressed in grams per 100 g of fresh sample; 73,13 of water; 0,57 for total protein; 0,41 of ether extract; 23.04 of carbohydrates, 0.63 of ash ; 2.22 of raw fiber; 3,82 of reducing sugars; total reducing sugars 12,06. Minerals, expressed in mg per 100g fresh sample: 76,1of sodium, 266, 25 of potassium; 24, 03 of magnesium; 92, 42 of calcium; 28, 48 of phosphorus; 2.02 of iron; 0.76 of zinc; 2, 85 of copper. Also, 14.06 milligrams of vitamin C per 100 g of fresh sample.

The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence of gastrointestinalparasites in the rainy and dry season in guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) in semi-commercialfarms in Oxapampa, Paso, Peru, as well as to identify the parasite species and to assessthe season and productive phase as risk factors. Two hundred faecal samples per season were collected where the experimental unit was the cage. The samples were processed bythe flotation, sedimentation and modified McMaster methods. The prevalence was 90.0± 4.1 and 63.5 ± 6.7% in the rainy and dry season respectively, and the identified specieswere Paraspidodera uncinata, Trichuris spp, Capillaria spp, and Eimeriacaviae. Onthis, E. caviae and P. uncinata showed the higher frequencies in both seasons. The rainyseason represented a risk of 5.7-fold relative to the dry season, especially for E. caviae(8.2), while the rearing phase represe...

El objetivo del estudio fue determinar la prevalencia de parásitos gastrointestinales en dos épocas del año (lluviosa y seca) en cuyes (Cavia porcellus) de crianza familiar comercial del distrito de Oxapampa, Pasco, así como identificar las especies de endoparásitos y evaluar la época y la etapa productiva (recría y empadre) como factores de riesgo. Se colectaron 200 muestras fecales por época donde la unidad experimental fue la poza o jaula. Las muestras fueron procesadas por los métodos de flotación, sedimentación y McMaster modificado. Se encontró una prevalencia de 90.0 ± 4.1 y de 63.5 ±6.7% durante la época lluviosa y seca, respectivamente, donde las especies identificadas fueron Paraspidodera uncinata, Trichuris spp, Capillaria spp y Eimeria caviae. De estas, E. caviae y P. uncinata fueron las especies de mayor frecuencia en las dos épocas. La época lluviosa repres...

One of the organic compounds more sensitive to temperature, storage and radiation is ascorbic acid. In an irradiation plant quarantine treatment, be processed fruits and vegetables, vegetable carriers of vitamin C. Was irradiated at a given concentration of vitamin C (42.24 mg/100 ml) contained in 3 different media: orange juice in water solution and pure ascorbic acid crystals, then diluted in water, we applied different doses of radiation Gamma (0, 0.1, 1.0, and 10 kGy), the dose rate was 7.433 GY / min.The results showed that higher percentages of vitamin C destruction irradiated to the respective doses were presented in the solution of vitamin C contained in water, (15.62, 64.11 and 84.38%) due to the indirect effect of gamma radiation , then vitamin C contained in orange juice, (5.25, 7.33 and 50.50%) This is because the other constituents of orange juice, have a protective effect o...

irradiation technology replaces additives and chemical fumigants in the conservation and elimination of insects in food. These chemicals are very questionable to be highly toxic, harmful to health and the environment. We present research using gamma radiation in Peruvian asparagus (fresh asparagus, freeze-dried and flour). Doses of 1 kGy extend the half-life of fresh green asparagus for 20 days and of the control for only 10 days. The quality of freeze-dried asparagus irradiated to 3, 5 and 7 kGy was evaluated by microbiological, physicochemical and sensorial tests. a dose of 3 kGy improved the hygienic quality of freeze-dried asparagus. irradiation was evaluated as a quarantine treatment for the disinfestation of copitarsia decolora in asparagus. a dose of 0.10 kGy applied to the second instar of copitarsia decolora larvae was required to prevent adult emergence. Gamma radiation in Peru...

This paper examines a number of reasons and arguments about the relative importance of many factors in the leverage decisions of publicly traded Peruvian non-financial firms from 2001 to 2007. In addition, the study uses a database of 710 non-financial firms from 2005 to 2007 to validate the preview results. This last database represents a commercial debtors’ portfolio for the entire bank system.The underlying assumption is the favorable economic context that has taken place in Peru. Moreover, since 1990 there has been a commercial and financial liberalization as well as a deepening of the financial markets. Castillo, Montoro and Tuesta (2006) verify an important change in the Peruvian economic framework. Therefore, the investigation of the leverage decisions’ determinants turns necessary in this new context.Finally, we identify that the most influential factors for those Peruvian co...

In the present theoretical analysis, is described the occurrence of thermal shock wave that is produced by the located heat delivery. The general analysis is made considering that the physical properties of the flow changes when crossing this wave. Thus also, for practical cases; its observed that these properties vary slightly in an ample range of temperature, so also is analyzed the formation of this wave without variation of the physical properties of the flow; showing that in the flow only cannot appear dynamic shock waves, but also thermal shock waves.

Desde el inicio de la epidemia de cólera en el Perú el Programa de Entrenamiento en Epidemiología de Campo de la Oficina General de Epidemiología del Ministerio de Salud ha desarrollado diversas investigaciones con el propósito de mejorar de las medidas de intervención para el control del problema. A través de la aplicación y diseños metodológicos estandarizados en las áreas mas afectadas, se ha encontrado que la seroprevalencia de infección por Vibrio cholerae alcanza a 25-30 de cada 100 habitantes. Los factores de riesgo más significativos incluyen consumo de agua no tratada y de alimentos sanitariamente deficientes. La severidad de cuadro clínico colérico está asociada significativamente con la presencia de grupo sanguíneo "O". La letalidad del cólera está asociada con el tratamiento intradomiciliario del enfermo y laautomedicación familiar. El desconocimiento acer...

In order to know the effect of 60Co gamma irradiation, in the sunflower crop, were irradiated achenes in the Transelektro LGI-01 in the Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Nucleares. The data was evaluated under a completely randomized design, where the treatments were 0, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800 and 900 Gy and four repetitions (10x4) = 40 experimental units. The response variables were: plant height, root length and volume, dry biomass. The results indicated that germination and sprouting decreased as the radiation increased, adjusting these to a quadratic model. Plant height, length, root volume and dry biomass decreased at high doses. From this investigation it was concluded, that doses of 100 and 200 Gy, have a stimulating effect on plant height and root length, being an important agent, to induce genetic variability in sunflower.
