Estrategias de reproducción social de mujeres jóvenes rurales frente al narcotráfico
The drug trafficking was installed in the Tierra Caliente region since the sixties and has remained as a viable and legitimate alternative employment in rural areas of the region. Drug trafficking is a phenomenon primarily androcentric, but what is the role of young women in it? While the direct link in drug distribution activities is rare among young rural women of this region, their participation through the relationships established with the men involved in these activities promotes social mobility and the maintenance of social and family structures within of rural communities.

Evaluation of antioxidants by a rapid polarographic method
A simple, rapid, precise, and reproducible method and an adaptable apparatus for polarographic measurement of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant activity is described. This method measures antioxidant activity within a few min time as compared to the hours or days needed for several widely used methods. Peroxidation rates were measured for different lipids as a function of amount of lipid, and amount of biocatalyst. The method is applicable to the detection and measurement of the antioxidant effects exhibited by weak antioxidants and has been satisfactorily used for the measurement of the antioxidant activity of different concentrations of powerful antioxidants.
