    Análisis del efecto del extracto e la guacima (guazuma ulmifolia) en cepas certificadas de Salmonella Typhi
    (Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2021) Morocho Duy, Italo Adrian; Iñiguez Heredia, Italo Adrian; 0302126750
    This research was aimed to evaluate the effect of guácima (Guazúma ulmifolia) extract and oil on Salmonella typhi ATCC 14028 ® strains, the raw material was collected in the community of Centropatul, the guácima extract was obtained by maceration, using guácima leaves. The oil was extracted from the guácima seed extracted from the dried ripe fruit, dried 3 days, and crushed, whit the help of Soxhlet equipment we separated the essential oil from the solid part, From 30 g of the sample we obtained 0.5 ml, its yield was 2.26 ml, which were placed in blank sensitivity discs, in different concentrations, (T1) guácima extract at 5%, (T2) guácima extract at 25%, (T3) guácima extract at 50% (T4) guácima extract at 100%, (T5) 100% guácima seed essential oil, was prepared by dilutions from the main extract, for the elaboration of the antibiogram, before this, Salmonella typhi ATCC 14028 ® was cultivated on SS agar, the it was sown on Mueller Hinton agar, the antibiogram process; based on the studies conducted, we were able to determine that the average oil obtained was 0.83 ml in 6 extractions, however, Salmonella typhi ATCC 14028 ® did not show sensitivity to the treatments. Keywords: Oil, Extract, Guácima, Salmonella, Typhi.

    Efecto de la progesterona más estradiol sobre la sincronización, ovulación y calidad de embriones en yeguas de la raza árabe
    (Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) López Espinoza, Walter Andrés; Alvarado Alvarado, Juan Carlos; 0302655873
    An intravaginal device containing progesterone (P4) plus estradiol benzoate (E2) was inserted into 10 Arabian mares to synchronize estrus and ovulation and evaluate the quantity and quality of embryos. A 1g P4 device and 2 mg of estradiol benzoate were inserted on day zero. On day 10, the device was removed, and 150 µg of sodium cloprostenol was administered. It was compared with a control treatment where cloprostenol at the same dose plus human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) was administered on day 10. Using the device with estradiol and a luteinizing hormone proved effective in inducing ovulation in mares. On day 15, follicular monitoring determined that the size of the preovulatory follicle was >39 mm. The size of the follicle and corpus luteum was observed, with the follicle being more prominent in the primary treatment, with an average ovulatory follicle size of 41.55 mm compared to 40.8 mm in the control. The mean size of the corpus luteum was 30.92 mm in the primary treatment versus 29.7 mm in the control. However, no statistical difference between variables was observed, but there was a 40% correlation between follicle size and corpus luteum diameter. Follicular and corpus luteum irrigation was higher in the P4 treatment at 75%, compared to 38% in the prostaglandin treatment. Higher quality and quantity of structures were observed in the P4 treatment, reflecting a p-value of (p=0.55), indicating a statistical difference between variables by treatment.

    Tipificación sanguínea en gatos domésticos mediante reacción de aglutinación en el barrio de Cristo Salvador - Cuenca
    (Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Campoverde Andrade, Alan Fernando; Rubio Arias , Pablo Giovanny; 0150909687
    Blood typing in cats refers to the classification of different feline blood groups according to the presence or absence of specific antigens on the surface of red blood cells. Unlike humans, where the ABO blood group system is used internationally, there are no universally recognized types of blood for cats. Not knowing a cat's blood group can lead to severe reactions or even death of the patient. The main objective of this research was to establish blood typing in domestic cats from the Cristo Salvador neighborhood in Cuenca using an agglutination reaction. Thirty-three mixed-breed male and female cats were evaluated for this study. The results showed that blood type A is more prevalent than other blood groups. Based on these results, it was concluded that sex does not determine blood type; however, further evaluation of blood group prevalence in other areas is necessary.

    Identificación de agentes micóticos (aspergillus spp. y candida spp.) en equipos respiratorios de uso veterinario
    (Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Brito Vélez, Johanna Elizabeth; Castillo Hidalgo, Edy Paúl; 0105632418
    The aim of this research was to identify the presence of Aspergillus spp. and Candida spp. and their relationship with the different components of respiratory equipment and the surrounding environment in order to establish the potential risk of contamination. To this end, sterile swabs were taken from both proximal and distal parts of the respiratory equipment before and after contact with the patient. This process was carried out with 4 replicates, obtaining a total of 160 samples. These were processed in the Microbiology Laboratory of the Centre for Research, Innovation and Technology Transfer (CIITT) of the Catholic University of Cuenca. The results obtained confirmed the presence of nosocomial fungi Aspergillus and Candida as well as other pathogenic microorganisms. At the time of sampling, no associativity was observed, but an influence on location was observed, especially in the case of Aspergillus spp, which showed positive associativity with the proximal surface. Furthermore, significant associations (p<0.05) were identified between Aspergillus spp. and various respiratory equipment, unlike Candida spp. which was present without statistical associations (p>0.05). Also, a significant risk was found to be present in the environment, anesthesia delivery tubes, mechanical ventilation tubes and endotracheal tubes. These findings provide crucial information for the implementation of preventive measures and cleaning protocols, thus mitigating the risk of contamination.
