Validação de metodologia para análise de aminas bioativas em camarão utilizando cromatografia de íons

In this study, we worked with the validation of a methodology for analysis of bioactive amines in shrimp, considering it to be one of the main products of the northriograndense trade balance, maintaining the state of Rio Grande do Norte topped the list of Brazilian exports of this product the last decade. The sector of the Brazilian shrimp works exclusively with gray shrimp Litopenaeus Vannamei since the late 1990s. This study used liquid chromatography with conductimetric detector, using as the mobile phase methylsulfonic 3 mM acid (MSA) with gradient and phase C18 column with reverse the development of methodology for the analysis of bioactive amines in shrimp. In the sample preparation was used as 5% trichloroacetic acid (TCA) extraction solution. Validation analysis of biotativas amines (putrescine - PUT, histamine - HIST, agmatine - AGM, spermidine - EPD and spermine - EPN) in shrimp, the linear working range was 0.1 to 2.0 mg L-1 to was sensitive, homoscedastic, in effect, selective, accurate and precise array. Thus, considered feasible for these determinations bioactive amines in this array. Determined the concentration of these amines in fresh shrimps (AGM = 0.61 ± 0.05 mg kg- 1 EPD = 2.57 ± 0.14 mg kg-1 and EPN = 1.79 ± 0.11 mg kg-1), and freezing weather predetermined in cooked shrimp (AGM = 6.28 ± 0.18 mg kg-1, EPD = 12.72 ± 0.02 mg kg- 1 and EPN = 22.30 ± 0.60 mg kg-1), the shrimp with twenty-four hour stay at room temperature (PUT = 879.52 ± 28.12 mg kg-1, AGM = 848.13 ± 19.40 mg kg-1, ESPD = 13.59 ± 0.97 mg kg-1 and ESPN = 18.47 + 1.57 mg kg-1). In shrimp subjected to freezing for a week, two weeks, three weeks and four weeks, the results showed that there is an increase in the content of agmatine (7.31 ± 0.21 mg kg-1) while in spermine ( 1.22 ± 0.14 mg kg-1) and spermidine (below limit of quantification) there was a decrease in the freeze time, while there is a decrease in the level of spermidine not reaching detectad. The putrescine was only found in shrimp that remained for 24 hours at room temperature and histamine was not found in any of the samples

Desenvolvimento de metodologia capaz de detectar e quantificar misturas de corantes em sucos artificiais em pó

Foi desenvolvido um método para detectar e quantificar misturas de corantes em sucos artificiais em pó fabricados no Brasil, de diferentes marcas e sabores. Foram estudados 6 corantes artificiais: amarelo tartrazina, amarelo crepúsculo, vermelho ponceau 4R, vermelho bordeaux S, vermelho 40 e azul brilhante presentes de forma unitária ou em misturas nos sucos com sabores laranja, tangerina, maracujá, abacaxi, limão e uva. A identificação dos corantes nas amostras foi feita através da comparação com os espectros dos padrões, utilizando-se a análise por infravermelho médio e pelos respectivos valores de absorção máxima nos comprimentos de onda relativos aos padrões e valores de referência na literatura. Também foram estudados os perfis de decomposição térmica por termogravimetria, termogravimetria derivada e calorimetria diferencial exploratória dos corantes e dos sucos em pó, sendo determinados os teores de umidade, de matéria orgânica e de cinzas. O teor de umidade encontrado não ultrapassou 4% para todas as amostras de suco analisadas. Com relação ao teor de matéria orgânica obteve-se para 57% dos sucos analisados um teor médio de 51,3% e para 43% das outras amostras obteve-se uma média de 67,2 %. Os resultados obtidos para o teor de cinzas indicaram que 29% das amostras apresentaram um teor de 26,7% para esse parâmetro enquanto 71% das amostras apresentaram um teor de cinzas de 46,4%. Os resultados obtidos por análise térmica mostraram-se adequados considerando-se que para obter os resultados pelo método tradicional há um investimento maior de tempo, de pessoal envolvido e de material, além da proteção ao meio ambiente. Para a análise por espectroscopia de absorção molecular foi proposta uma equação simplificada para a determinação de cada corante na mistura utilizando-se a lei de Beer. Para validação, empregou-se a espectroscopia de absorção molecular no visível, onde foi investigada a influência dos interferentes (TiO2 e açúcar) presentes nas amostras de sucos, os testes de fotodegradação e a avaliação do efeito do pH. Para quantificação tomou-se como referência 512 amostras sintéticas contendo um e dois corantes (1,5625 a 25,000 mg L-1) para obtenção das curvas analíticas que foram aplicadas à análise dos sucos em pó. Os resultados indicaram que o teor máximo do amarelo crepúsculo foi encontrado nos sucos com os sabores laranja, tangerina e manga que correspondeu a 25,6% da ingestão diária aceitável (para ser ultrapassada corresponderia a ingestão de 4 copos). O teor máximo encontrado para o amarelo tartrazina nos sucos foi para o sabor maracujá que correspondeu a 8,5% da ingestão diária aceitável, (para ser alcançado corresponderia a ingestão de 12 copos). O método proposto foi testado e validado com sucesso para amostras de sucos em pó sendo de simples execução e de rapidez na obtenção dos resultados

A humanização da saúde no cotidiano de usuários da estrategia saúde da família

This research assumes that for changes in health practices directed to an integral care, is crucial humanization, participation and autonomy of service users. In this sense, the research had investigated the issue of humanization involving users of the Family Health Strategy (FHS) in city of Mossoró, having as objectives: to analyze the perceptions of users on humanization in the production of health care in daily of Family Health Strategy, from these perceptions, identify elements featuring humanized and non-humanized in everyday practices related to production of health care; relate perceptions of users about humanization with the notions of extended clinic and social participation present in the National Humanization Policy (NHP); identify difficulties and potentialities in the production of health care from the perspective of humanization. It was a qualitative approach to data collection and it was used the methodology of Network Analysis of Everyday Life (NAEL), which allowed the questioning of health practices through an interactive discussion involving participants subjected. The analysis of data through the technique of content thematic analysis was performed and the results were interpreted related the Extended Clinic references and the users participation, related with the Gift Theory discussed by Marcel Mauss. The results indicated senses humanization linked to affection, reciprocity and honesty, highlighting as essential to humanized practices the trust, bonding, listening, dialogue and accountability. Were also mentioned other elements related to the organization of health services such as access and good functioning of the health services. The difficulties and potentialities show structural deficiencies of the health system and changes in the labor process. The participation of users deconstructing and reconstructing concepts remainder humanization in the production of health care is a key factor for the sedimentation of what is proposed in the HNP. Using the privileged space of the FHE to create more active people and understanding their needs and demands, is possible path to build a participative management

Democratização do acesso a água no semi-árido: o caso da comunidade rural de Pendências dos Emídios no município de Serrinha/RN

Brazil lives a time of experimentation and maturity as it pertains to managing the use of water, which comes institutionalising increasingly social participation. In Rio Grande do Norte, since 1997, the government has been developing actions accordingly, through the State Department of Water Resources, which has implemented a programme of adutoras within the State and created Water Users Associations, in the installation of dessalinizadores for places where the Adutora was not necessary or not yet arrived, so that should be managed by communities through associations of users. Since 2003, Civil Society Organisations - CSOs come through ASA - Articulation in the Semi-arid Brazilian, implementing the P1MC - Program of Training and Mobilization for Social Living with the Semi-Arid (One Million Rural Cisternas), in its third year of implementation in Rio Grande do Norte, in the spirit of working together with the semi arid. In the municipality of Serrinha / RN which incorporates the Semi-arid region, we find in the rural community of Pendêcias dos Emídios the experience of the State and Civil Society, which referred to a discussion about the environmental sustainability of these initiatives. The general objective of this work is to examine the strategies for participatory management in the use and access to water in the community of Pendêcias dos Emídios of the municipality of Serrinha / RN, to understand how those experiences can contribute to environmental sustainability. The methodology used envolvel bibliographic research in categories involving each article, the analysis of the terms of reference of each strategy as part of the documentary research, the application forms covering 40 families benefited, and interviews based on comprehensive analysis of the speech. This study is divided into 02 articles, where the first is a discussion held on collective action and environmental sustainability, and the second is held a discussion about the sustainability of the initiatives underway to access water. The results of the discussion held on 02 articles that had their empirical built from the experience of the Commonwealth of Pendências dos Emídios revealed how far will the ability of the State to promote collective action and the limitations of the perception of sustainability that permeates these initiatives in the search for democratic access to water in semi-arid
