    • Seasonal changes in feed intake, diet digestibility and diet composition by lactating and non-lactating goats browsing in a semi-arid rangeland of Argentina 

      Egea, Angela Vanina; Bakker, María Leontina; Allegretti, Liliana Inés; Paez, Sebastián Antonio; Grilli, Diego Javier; Guevara, Juan Carlos; Viillalba, Juan José (Comité editor Grass and Forage Science, 2018-10-01)
      We determined the seasonal nutrient and secondary compound intake, in vivo diet digestibility (DD) and diet species composition of goats in different physiological states in a desert rangeland of Argentina. During the wet and the dry seasons, 24 mature female Creole goats (six non-lactating, non-pregnant and six lactating in each season) were used in a 2 × 2 factorial design. Diet botanical composition, DD and dry-matter intake (DMI) were estimated by the combined use of visual observation, microhistological analyses of faecal samples and n-alkane technique. Browse species dominated the goats’ ...

      COMUNICACIÓN CIENTÍFICA PRESENTADA EN ASAMBLEA CIENTÍFICA CONJUNTA DE LA ASOCIACIÓN INTERNACIONAL DE GEODESIA Y LA ASOCIACIÓN INTERNACIONAL DE SISMOLOGÍA Y FÍSICA DEL INTERIOR DE LA TIERRA (IAG-IASPEI 2017), 30 de julio - 4 de agosto de 2017, Kobe, Japón. SIRGAS reference frame The primary objective of SIRGAS (Sistema de eferencia Geocéntrico para las Américas) is the determination and maintenance of a reliable reference frame in Latin America and the Caribbean as a densification of the ITRF and as a regional realisation of the ITRS. The SIRGAS reference frame is currently composed of 418 ...
    • Sustituto cárnico a base de cereales y legumbres de alto valor biológico. 

      De la Llana, Valentina; Raimondo, Emilia (Comité editor libro de resúmenes CYTAL 2019, 2019-10-20)
      Las legumbres poseen un buen perfil nutricional, aportan hidratos de carbono complejos, fibra sobre todo insoluble y tienen un buen contenido de proteínas y grasas poliinsaturadas, pero su consumo en Argentina es muy bajo. Son el pilar de las dietas vegetarianas/veganas, ya que en este tipo de alimentación no se incluyen proteínas de alto valor biológico y a través de éstos, es posible incorporar ese nutriente carente de forma completa. El objetivo principal de este trabajo fue elaborar un sustituto cárnico a base de cereales- legumbres que sea completo a nivel proteico, dar una alternativa ...
    • Unusual presence of Ornidia robusta (Diptera: Syrphidae) causing pig myiasis in Argentina. 

      López Millán, Cyntia; Olea, María Sofía; Dantur Juri, María Julia (Comité editorial Parasitology Research, 2015-10-09)
      Myiasis is caused by dipterous larvae from the Calliphoridae, Sarcophagidae, Muscidae, Cuterebridae, and Syrphidae families. In this work, Cochliomyia hominivorax, Chrysomya megacephala, and Ornidia robusta were identified causing vulva, ear, and leg myiasis in pigs in Tucuman province, northwestern Argentina. The report of the presence of C. hominivorax and C. megacephala is very important due to their role as myiasis-causing and disease vectors. The occurrence of Ornidia robusta is remarkable, since it constitutes the first record of myiasis in general and of myiasis in pigs in particular. ...
