Prata variety banana starch is little known and has great economic potential due to its extensive cultivation in developing countries. This study characterizes this native starch and modifies by annealing at different temperatures (45, 50, and 55 °C). The native starch presents a high apparent amylose content (46.67%), besides it showing granules of several sizes and shapes containing rounded ends, which remain unchanged with the annealing. The weaker crystals are seen to be strengthened by the treatments at 50 and 55 °C, since the gelatinization onset and peak temperature increase. It also is possible to verify that the molecular order of the double amylopectin helices (ΔH) remains unaltered, but the uniformity of the molecular structure (Tc − To) increases. Regarding the pasting properties, annealing contributes to improving the paste's stability to heat and shear, but contributes to decreasing the stability of cooled starch paste. In addition, annealing increases the paste clarity and the least gelation concentration. Native starch stands out by its high resistant starch content (34.71%), which can be increased to 74.5% through annealing at 55 °C.
ResumoA celulite juvenil ou linfadenite granulomatosa estéril juvenil, é um distúrbio raro que acomete filhotes com idade entre três semanas a seis meses. Os sinais clínicos incluem alopecia, edema, pápulas, pústulas e crostas especialmente em pálpebras. O diagnóstico definitivo requer exames citológico e histopatológico e a terapia precoce e agressiva é preconizada, pois as cicatrizes após recuperação podem ser graves. O tratamento de escolha consiste no uso de altas doses dos glicocorticoides, como prednisona. Foram atendidos no Hospital Veterinário, três animais da espécie canina, apresentando sinais clínicos variados. Foram realizados hemograma, exame citológico das lesões de pele e dos linfonodos submandibulares. O tratamento foi instituído, utilizando-se cefalexina na dose de 22 mg/kg, duas vezes ao dia, até controle de infecção bacteriana secundária e prednisona na dose de 2mg/kg, uma vez ao dia, até regressão dos sinais clínicos. Após termino do tratamento obteve-se cura completa dos animais. O objetivo deste trabalho é relatar o caso de três animais da espécie canina, apresentando sinais clínicos variados de celulite juvenil. Palavras-chave: Celulite, canino, pústula AbstractJuvenile cellulitis or juvenile sterile granulomatous lymphadenitis is a rare disorder that affects puppies between three weeks to six months years old. Clinical signs include alopecia, edema, papules, pustules and crusts especially on eyelids. Definitive diagnosis requires cytological and histological evaluation and early and aggressive therapy is recommended, once scars after recovery can be severe .The choice treatment is the high dose of corticosteroids use such as prednisone. Three animals of canine species were attended at the Veterinary Hospital Clinical Small Animal Service presenting different clinical signs. Hemogram, skin lesions and submandibular lymph nodes cytological examination was collected and analyzed. The treatment was instituted, using cephalexin (22mg/kg, twice daily) up to control of secondary bacterial infection, and prednisone (2mg/kg, once a day) until clinical resolution. Complete cure was obtained at the end of treatment. The aim of this work is to report three clinical cases of juvenile cellulitis in dogs.
ResumoRelatam-se 15 casos de cães com abscessos prostáticos. Os animais foram submetidos a exame físico, destacando-se o toque retal associado à palpação transabdominal da próstata, seguido de hemograma, dosagem sérica de uréia, creatinina e enzimas alanino-aminotransferase e fosfatase alcalina, avaliações radiográfica e ultrassonográfica da cavidade abdominal e cultura do tecido prostático. Os animais foram submetidos a diferentes tratamentos, estes relacionados ao estado geral do animal, localização, tamanho e quantidade de abscessos prostáticos. Esta descrição reitera a importância das afecções prostáticas na clínica médica canina, sendo o exame físico detalhado e acompanhado de exames complementares específicos, particularmente raios-X e ultrassonografia, de grande valia na detecção das afecções prostáticas dos cães. As técnicas cirúrgicas empregadas são eficazes ao tratamento de abscessos prostáticos, com baixa taxa de mortalidade. Palavras-chave: Canino, próstata, prostatite aguda. AbstractFifteen cases of dogs with prostatic abscesses are reported. The animals were underwent to physical examination prioritizing the digital rectal exam with transabdominal palpation of the prostate gland followed by blood cell count, measurement of serum urea, creatinine, alanine aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase levels, abdominal's radiographic and ultrasound exams, and culture of the prostate. The animals were underwent to different treatments being related to the animal's general state, location, size and quantity of prostatic abscesses. This description reiterates the importance of prostatic disease in canine medicine once the detailed physical examination associated with specific complementary tests, particularly x-ray and ultrasound, are valuable for the detection of dog's prostatic diseases. Surgical procedures used here are effective to the treatment of prostatic abscesses with low mortality rate.
