Approximately 30% of people living with HIV worldwide are estimated to be unaware their infection. self-testing (HIVST) is a strategy recommended by the World Health Organization increase access and uptake testing among key populations who at high risk for
Lectins are proteins or glycoproteins able to bind, specifically and reversibly carbohydrates glycoconjugates. Considering this ability, the utilization of Caesalpinia pulcherrima seeds polysaccharides as an affinity matrix was tested. The endospermic gum were solubilized in distinct concentrations NaOH treated with different amounts epichlorohydrin (ECH) forming gels variable capacity for interaction galactose- binding lectins. gel ECH/gum ration 6.0mmol/g selected best matrix. presented...
In 2015, a community-wide intervention was launched in the city of Curitiba to evaluate uptake multiple HIV testing. A three-stage cluster sampling 4800 men aged 15–64 years selected Curitiba. Logistic regression models were used establish driving factors testing over past 12 months.In total sample, 49.5% have tested for once lifetime and 18.7% last months. Among MSM, proportions much higher: 75.9% 47.8% respectively. multivariate analysis, significantly higher likelihood found young (15–24...
The use of natural gums, taken from the exudates and extracts plants, has been given a strong impulse due to both many lucrative possibilities for industrialization excellent international market.A gum or resin yellowish color, soluble in water, which presents great potential industrialization, appears on trunk branches cashew tree; that is known mainly its nuts are used as food ingredient.Cashew interacts with water it emulsifier, adhesive stabilizer properties, occurring form pale yellow...
