Identificación y discriminación de tequilas reposados in situ para la protección de marca

SUMMARY

The UV-Visible absorption spectra of four well-known brands of rested Tequilas were analized using multivariate tecniques in order to identify brands. This methodology can be performed in situ therefore it can be implemented as a protection means of the beverage brand. 40 samples of rested Tequilas were purchased from bars and liquor stores in the cities of Zacatecas, Zac and Leon, Gto. and we were looking for similarities and differences among the tested brands for grouping and predictions over new testing samples. This work describes the used methodology for those alcoholic beverages which is complementary to the methodology used through analytical chemistry. The methodoly shows results in minutes and can be performed in situ, this Contreras, U. et al. Revista Electrónica Nova Scientia, Nº 2 Vol. 1 (1), 2009. ISSN 2007 - 0705. pp: 22 - 32 - 24 - in contrast to chromatography techniques. The results show a nice grouping of tequilas according to the corresponding brand such that any new testing tequila could be classified among the studied brands.

Desarrollo de habilidades investigativas en el proceso formativo de los estudiantes de Medicina / Development of research skills in the training process of medical studentsDesarrollo de habilidades investigativas en el proceso formativo de los estudiantes de Medicina / Development of research skills in the training process of medical studentsde las Ciencias de la Salud, en especial de los médicos que egresan con la responsabilidad de asumir el trabajo en la Atención Primaria de Salud. Dada las insuficiencias de los estudiantes de medicina en el componente investigativo del proceso formativo, lo que incide en los modos de actuación de los graduados, se realizó una  investigación descriptiva y transversal. El objetivo consiste en  determinar cómo se comporta el  desarrollo de habilidades investigativas en el proceso formativo de los estudiantes de medicina durante el período enero  -  junio del año 2009.  El universo estuvo constituido por todos los estudiantes de medicina de la Universidad de Ciencias Médicas de Pinar del Río. Se seleccionó una muestra de forma aleatoria, estratificada y representativa, que incluyó a los estudiantes de todos los años de la carrera, profesores y directivos de la carrera. Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica, y  el análisis documental de los planes de estudio, utilizando como métodos empíricos: la encuesta, la entrevista y la opinión de expertos. El diagnóstico incluyó la aplicación de una encuesta a los estudiantes de la carrera de medicina, y entrevistas semiestructuradas a los profesores de la carrera. Se concluye que la mayoría de los estudiantes consideran los temas sobre metodología de la investigación recibida como insuficiente para el desarrollo de habilidades investigativas, los temas que investigan responden a intereses personales y los orientados por el tutor. La actividad científica estudiantil  constituye la principal vía identificada para el desarrollo de habilidades investigativas. Los estudiantes consideran muy necesario la disciplina  metodología de la investigación en su plan de estudio.Palabras clave: MEDICINA,  METODOLOGÍA, ESTUDIANTE.ABSTRACTThe necessity of increasing the quality of preparation for the research process of graduates in Medical Sciences is a matter of discussion in last academic courses, particularly medical personnel having the responsibility for taking on the work of Primary Health Care. In view of the insufficiencies of medical students on the research component during the training process, which bears on the ways the graduates perform, a descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted. The objective was to determine the behavior of research skills in the training process of medical students during January-June 2009. The universe was comprised of all the students enroll at Medical College in Pinar del Rio. The sample was chosen at random, stratified and representative, that included the medical students enroll in all the academic years of medical studies, teaching staff and directors. A literature review and a documentary analysis of the syllabuses were carried out using empirical methods: survey, interview and the opinion of the experts. The instruments applied included a survey to the medical students and semi-structured interviews to professors. Concluding that the majority of the students consider the topics about methodology of research insufficient to develop skills, these topics respond to personal interest advised by the tutor. Student scientific activity represents the main identified way to develop research skills. Students consider the discipline of Methodology of Research very necessary in the syllabus.Key words: MEDICINE, METHODOLOGY, STUDENTS.
