El presente manual recoge una selección de los mejores trabajos científicos, revisados y ampliados, presentados en OPPICS 2019 International Conference of Psychology, Sociology, Education and Social ...Sciences, celebrado en la Universidad de Zaragoza, España, los días 26, 27 y 28 de septiembre de 2019.El congreso, organizado por el grupo de investigación OPIICS Observatorio para la Investigación e Innovación en Ciencias Sociales de la Universidad de Zaragoza, ha supuesto la presentación del grupo, formado en 2013 y que con esta actividad alcanza una madurez profesional e investigadora relevante a nivel tanto nacional como internacional.Durante la conferencia, se han presentado proyectos y trabajos de Psicología Evolutiva y de la Educación, Psicología Social, Sociología, Antropología, Salud y Educación, resultando ser un importante punto de encuentro y fomento para el intercambio de conocimientos y experiencias entre profesionales, investigadoresy estudiantes de todas las partes del mundo en el ámbito de la Psicología, la Sociología, la Educación, la Salud y las Ciencias Sociales.En definitiva, el lector tiene a su disposición, además de una reflexión sobre los principales problemas que existen hoy en día en las Ciencias Sociales, diferentes ejemplos actualizados del campo profesional e investigador que pueden ayudarle a profundizar en el conocimiento teórico-instrumental y técnico-práctico, y en su utilización en diferentes campos.
Since the first report of SARS-CoV-2 infection in humans, the virus has mutated to develop new viral variants with higher infection rates and more resistance to neutralization by antibodies elicited ...after natural SARS-CoV-2 infection or by vaccines. Therefore, rapid identification of viral variants circulating in the population is crucial for epidemiological assessment and efforts to contain the resurgence of the pandemic. Between January and November 2021, we performed a large variant RT-qPCR-based screening of mutations in the spike protein of 1851 SARS-CoV-2-positive samples derived from outpatients from the UC-Christus Health Network in Chile. In a portion of samples (
= 636), we validated our RT-qPCR-pipeline by WGS, obtaining a 99.2% concordance. Our results indicate that from January to March 2021 there was a dominance of non-identifiable variants by the RT-qPCR-based screening; however, throughout WGS we were able to identify the Lambda (C.37) variant of interest (VOI). From March to July, we observed the rapid emergence of mutations associated with the Gamma variant (P.1), which was quickly replaced by the appearance of a combination of samples harboring mutations associated with the Delta variant (B.1.617.2), which predominated until the end of the study. Our results highlight the applicability of cost-effective RT-qPCR-based screening of mutations associated with known variants of concern (VOC), VOI and variants under monitoring (VUM) of SARS-CoV-2, being a rapid and reliable tool that complements WGS-based surveillance.
We report here the development of two monoclonal antibodies, termed 5G8 and 5C12, belonging to the IgM and IgG1 class, respectively, suitable for the identification of Vibrio cholerae 01 in clinical ...and environmental samples. The specificities of the monoclonals were evaluated by ELISA and indirect immunofluorescent microscopy of microorganisms normally present in stool samples and with two bacterial panels. One panel included 72 potentially antigenically related bacterial strains and the second panel included 20 pathogenic bacterial strains involved in diarrhea cases. The results of these extensive analyses indicate that monoclonal antibodies 5G8 and 5C12 are highly specific and suitable for the clinical diagnosis of Vibrio cholerae 01 in human stool samples by indirect immunofluorescent microscopy. Although the antigenic sites recognized by these antibodies were not identified in this study, the observation of Western blot patterns suggested that 5G8 and 5C12 monoclonal antibodies bind to LPS epitopes, a good structural marker for the detection of V. cholerae 01 because it is present in all bacterial cell walls.
Organizational commitment and market orientation knowledge provide an organization with
a better understanding of its employees and customers needs, competitors and market environment, which ...subsequently leads to superior organizational performance. However, this paper investigates potential influences of organizational commitment on educational public system market orientation. Data for this paper was collected through personal interviews in a sample of 300 teachers from public Mexican universities in the center of Mexico. Results showed that the organizational commitment impact positively in a cultural market orientation and this has a positive impact in the conduct of market orientation.
Tener un conocimiento claro sobre el compromiso organizacional y la orientación al mercado, proporciona a las organizaciones un buen entendimiento de las necesidades de los trabajadores, clientes, competencia y ambiente del mercado, hecho que conlleva como consecuencia a un mejor desempeño de la organización. En este estudio se investiga la influencia potencial del compromiso organizacional en la orientación al mercado en el sistema público de educación superior. Los datos requeridos para este estudio fueron
recolectados a través de entrevistas personales utilizando una muestra de 300 profesores de una universidad pública del centro de México. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que el compromiso organizacional tiene un impacto positivo en la orientación al mercado cultural, así como al conductual.
