The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of aqueous extract of Salvia hispanica L. seed on induced diabetes in Mus musculus BALB / c. It were 18 males Mus musculus Balb / c, weighing between 25 to 30 g, which were randomized into 3 groups, with 6 animals each. The control group consists of 6 Mus musculus Balb / c with induced diabetes, received physiological saline for 21 days. Grup problem I and II was consisted of 6 Mus musculus Balb / c with diabetes induced each, received 2 ml of aqueous extract of the seeds of Salvia hispánica L. (chia) v.o at 1% and 2% for 14 days, respectively. The grups problem received physiological saline for the last 7 days of the experiment as post-treatment. Basal glucose was determined at the start of the experiment and after 48 hours after administration of alloxan that receiving a single dose (75 mg / kg / day alloxane in citrate buffer -...

The use of thermal mud in different rural places of our country by the population in most times by tradition, or empirically, makes necessary studies to contribute to the safety of their use. The metals and physicochemical characteristics of the thermal mud from Cachicadán, November-December 2018, were determined. The Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry method was used with metal flame, LOD for humidity, Incineration for ashes, Gravimetry and Volumetry for Density, Potentiometry for pH , Optical Microscopy with Neubauer Chamber for particle size, Equation proposed by Armijo F, 2015 for Ash / Weight, Specific Heat and Thermal Conductivity. The concentration determined for Fe, Ca, Zn, Ag, Cu, Hg, As, Cd, Cr, Pb metals was 7202,3; 695,86; 47,42; 27,16; 11,65; 174,81; 848,12; 2,34; 19,3; 64,5 ppm respectively. The average value of the physicochemical characteristics for Humidity, Temperatur...
