This study will focus on one part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), acupuncture - utilized as therapy method for pathologies treatment in humans and animals - , as well as its main techniques. Acupuncture is one branch of TCM, originated from theoretical and empirical knowledge accumulated by popular medicine. Currently, researches performed in humans and animals have shown the effectiveness of this method as an assistance or alternative in illnesses treatment. Besides that, professionals are not merely looking for orthodox medicine knowledge, but also specializations and improvement over the complementary therapies area. There are diverse studies and researches which were and are being done in veterinary, relating the effectiveness of acupuncture in small and large animals. In comparison, in the wild animals’ area the numbers of studies is smaller. However, it is expected that this number increases over the fact that some of these animals’ species are entering the pet market and also because of the possibility of using these methods for treatment and prevention of diseases on zoo animals or other animals kept in captivity

A todo o momento, pesquisadores de diversas áreas do conhecimento buscam propor novos métodos e procedimentos, contestar teorias atualmente aceitas, descobrir novos ativos e fórmulas ou aprimorar aquelas já existentes. Contudo, para que estas novas proposições sejam aceitas na comunidade cientifica é imprescindível que existam dados que comprovem o estudo realizado. A bioestatística é uma ciência que permite descrever, comparar e fazer inferências a partir destes dados, com certo grau de confiança, tornando uma pesquisa muito mais robusta e confiável. A presente revisão bibliográfica objetiva trazer a bioestatística de uma forma simples, livre da complexidade matemática e com exemplos da biologia, para que qualquer aluno da área de biológicas possa compreender o conteúdo sem grandes dificuldades. O trabalho está basicamente dividido em dois temas: “Estimação de Parâmetros” e “Testes de Hipóteses”, sendo que neste último serão abordados exemplos para os testes paramétricos e não-paramétricos em cada comparação apresentada

The new market, focused on sustainability and other environmental concerns, refers to innovations that seek alternative forms of production. In pulp and paper bleaching alternative reagents are studied, for example, hydrogen peroxide, in partial substitution of chlorine dioxide in order to reduce the formation of organochlorines. In this context, this study examined the burden of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on alkaline extraction stage (stage Ep) required for the bleaching of pulp with eucalyptus kraft pulp, pre-oxygen delignified to obtain equivalent brightness at 90 ± 0.5% ISO, as well as its effect on quality of pulp produced. The pulp was bleached by the sequence D(Ep)DP, with the application of factor kappa of 0.14 and varying the concentration of hydrogen peroxide in Ep stage three, five, seven and nine kilograms of reagent per ton of pulp absolutely drought. The final P stage was optimized with the use of six, nine and twelve pounds of hydrogen peroxide per ton of absolutely dry pulp to achieve the required brightness. The quality of the pulp produced was analyzed based on the kappa number, the brightness and the viscosity. The methods were performed according to standards set by the standard TAPPI (Technical Association of the Pulp and Paper Industry). The best result was obtained using the following D0Ep(7)D1P(6), which showed a viscosity of 19.9 cP, 89.6% ISO brightness, consumption of 94.9 kg / t of reagents and reagent costs of US$ 28.15, because it showed better pulp quality for a lower cost compared to the others. It was found that the greater the amount of hydrogen peroxide in alkaline extraction, the lower the kappa number and increased the amount of residual hydrogen peroxide. The higher the charge of hydrogen peroxide in Ep stage, the lower the need for hydrogen peroxide in the final P stage, reducing the cost of bleaching

Neste trabalho foi analisada a resolução espacial de sensores de Biossusceptometria AC (BAC) correlacionando dois métodos consagrados em análise de resolução, a Função de Transferência Modulada (do inglês MTF) e a Largura à Meia Altura (FWHM) da Função de Espalhamento Pontual (PSF). A partir da aquisição da PSF do sistema, foi possível quantificar a resolução dos sensores pelos dois métodos. Foram analisados sensores de diferentes diâmetros para a obtenção da correlação entre os dois métodos. Foi variada também a corrente, indiretamente, pela variação de voltagem de excitação. Com estas metodologias foi possível avaliar a resolução de maneira pontual dos sensores, sendo possível otimizar a utilização dos sensores de acordo com a medida a ser realizada

O fluconazol é um antifúngico de amplo espectro indicado para o tratamento de infecções fúngicas sistêmicas e superficiais. A determinação da potência dos antimicrobianos é importante no controle e na garantia da qualidade das preparações farmacêuticas e faz-se necessário o desenvolvimento de procedimentos práticos e econômicos que possam ser validados e aplicados no doseamento desses fármacos. Dentre os ensaios microbiológicos, os mais comumente empregados são o de difusão em ágar e o turbidimétrico. O objetivo deste trabalho foi desenvolver e validar métodos microbiológicos para determinação da potência do fluconazol cápsulas. O método de difusão em ágar foi desenvolvido empregando ágar Sabouraud e Candida albicans ATCC 64548 como micro-organismo teste. Foi utilizado o delineamento 3 x 3, segundo preconiza a Farmacopeia Brasileira (2010). A validação do método demonstrou linearidade entre o diâmetro dos halos de inibição e o logaritmo da concentração numa faixa de 25,0 a 100,0 µg/mL. Os resultados foram precisos, com desvio padrão relativo igual a 6,15%, e exatos, com intervalo de tolerância de 97,30%, dentro dos limites permitidos. O método foi aplicado ainda em estudos de estabilidade, nas condições de estresse calor úmido, em câmara climática a 40 ºC e 75% de umidade relativa por 90 dias; calor seco, em estufa a 60 ºC por 66 dias e fotodegradação, em câmara espelhada com luz UVC por 66 e 180 dias. Os valores de teor médio calculados foram de 30,27% para calor úmido; 27,72% para calor seco; 33,29% para fotodegradação durante 66 dias e 25,00% para fotodegradação durante 180 dias

This Project aims to develop methods for data classification in a Data Warehouse for decision-making purposes. We also have as another goal the reduction of an attribute set in a Data Warehouse, in which a given reduced set is capable of keeping the same properties of the original one. Once we achieve a reduced set, we have a smaller computational cost of processing, we are able to identify non-relevant attributes to certain kinds of situations, and finally we are also able to recognize patterns in the database that will help us to take decisions. In order to achieve these main objectives, it will be implemented the Rough Sets algorithm. We chose PostgreSQL as our data base management system due to its efficiency, consolidation and finally, it’s an open-source system (free distribution)

The increasing demand for electro-electronic devices, with high performance and multi-functional and the rapid advances of the nanotechnology require the development of new methods and techniques for the production and characterization of nanostructure materials and phenomenological models to describe/to predict some of its properties. The demand for multifunctionality requires, at least, new materials, that can integrate ferroelectric and magnetic properties of high technological interest. Inside of this context, multiferroics material can be considered suitable to integrate two or more physical properties of high technological interest. It can also provides new challenges in the processes of synthesis of new materials, and development of new devices with controlling and simulation of its physical properties and modeling. For this Calcium (Ca)-doped bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3) thin films prepared by using the polymeric precursor method (PPM) were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission gun scanning electron microscopy (FEG-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), polarization and piezoelectric measurements.In order to study the behavior and determine which are the most important parameters to achieve the optimal property to be applied to a multiferroic materials

Indiscriminate and inappropriate use of pesticides in agriculture has been pointed out for increasing health problems and environmental damage. Considering that water resources are the principal destiny of those compounds after application, the present study presents optimization and validation of two simple and effi cient analytical methods for pesticides quantifi cation in both surface and groundwater. Were selected the pesticides more commonly used at Dourados (MS - Brazil), region with intense agricultural activity. Pesticides were preconcentrated by solid-phase extraction using C18 (500 mg) cartridges and then divided in two groups for elution and quantifi cation: 2.4-D and 2.4-DCP were eluted with methanol and quantifi ed by high performance liquid chromatography with ultra-violet detector (HPLC-UV) while atrazine, DIA, DEA, trifl uralin and methyl parathion were eluted with ethylacetate (1:1, v/v) and quantifi ed by gas chromatography with thermionic specifi c detector (GC-TSD). The methods showed satisfactory accuracy (76-107%) and precision (<12%) for the substances analyzed at the fortifi ed levels selected for the study, except for DIA (<51%). Study of pesticide stability also presented good results: C18 cartridges could be stored for at least for 21 days at -20ºC with no signs of the compounds degradability. Both methods limits of quantifi cation of the pesticides (0.22 - 0.48 μg L-1) are in accordance to the levels currently established by the Brazilian national legislation for pesticides in water. Although only the pesticide 2.4-D has been detected in two distinct collection points in the study period of time, this work warns for the requirement of systematical analysis of pesticides presence in water destined to human consume, principally in areas of intense agriculture activity. Such monitoring can provide subsidies for public environmental policies.
