Nuestro proyecto integrador de saberes consiste en:

 "EFECTO DE LA BACTERIA DEPREDADORA  BDELLOVIBRIO SOBRE LAS INFECCIONES GASTROINTESTINALES PRODUCIDAS POR E. COLI."

Utilizaremos a la bacteria bdellovibrio como un antibiótico vivo para reducir de esta manera las enfermedades producidas por la bacteria E.coli en el tracto gastrointestinal.

Pero ¿porque escoger la bacteria bdellovibrio como un antibiótico vivo?

La Bdellovibrio es una bacteria depredadora muy interesante porque su táctica consiste en unirse a ciertas bacterias para invadirlas. Una vez dentro de su presa consume la célula del anfitrión desde su interior. Si la presa es adecuada, la Bdellovibrio usará un cóctel químico capaz de degradar lípidos, proteínas y moléculas de carbohidratos para abrir un agujero en la pared celular de su víctima. Así, el predador se introduce entre la membrana externa y la interna de la célula de la presa.

Se utilizara este mecanismo de la bdellovibrio par contrarrestar la cantidad de e coli presentes en el tracto gastrointestinal y de esta manera reducir las enfermedades gastrointestinales producidas por la escherichia coli.

The Legend of St. Valentine Day

Roman origin

The Catholic Church recognizes at least three different saints named Valentine or Valentinus, all of whom were martyred. One legend contends that Valentine was a priest who served during the third century in Rome. When Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men. Valentine, realizing the injustice of the decree, defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine’s actions were discovered, Claudius ordered that he be put to death.

Pagan Origin

While some believe that Valentine’s Day is celebrated in the middle of February to commemorate the anniversary of Valentine’s death or burial–which probably occurred around A.D. 270–others claim that the Christian church may have decided to place St. Valentine’s feast day in the middle of February in an effort to “Christianize” the pagan celebration of Lupercalia. Celebrated at the ides of February, or February 15, Lupercalia was a fertility festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman god of agriculture, as well as to the Roman founders Romulus and Remus. To begin the festival, members of the Luperci, an order of Roman priests, would gather at a sacred cave where the infants Romulus and Remus, the founders of Rome, were believed to have been cared for by a she-wolf or lupa. The priests would sacrifice a goat, for fertility, and a dog, for purification.
