O cólon tem sido explorado nas últimas décadas como sítio de liberação de fármacos. A goma gelana e a pectina são polissacarídeos hidrofílicos naturais promissores para a obtenção de sistemas de liberação cólon-específica de fármacos, uma vez que são degradados especificamente por enzimas produzidas pela microbiota deste órgão. Filmes poliméricos apresentam grande aplicação no revestimento de formas farmacêuticas sólidas e podem permitir o controle das taxas de liberação de fármacos e/ou seu direcionamento para um órgão específico. Além disso, modificações químicas como a reticulação iônica podem alterar propriedades físico-químicas como reduzir a hidrofilia do sistema. Neste trabalho foram obtidos e caracterizados filmes de goma gelana e pectina reticuladas ionicamente com cátion trivalente (Al3+). Os efeitos da concentração de polímeros, agente reticulante e plastificante (glicerol) utilizados na preparação das amostras foram avaliados a partir da caracterização das propriedades mecânicas, físicas e químicas dos filmes. A análise macroscópica revelou filmes flexíveis, homogêneos e translúcidos e a análise por microscopia eletrônica de varredura mostrou que a reticulação contribuiu para a formação de filmes com superfícies rugosas. Os baixos valores de transmissão de vapor d'água obtidos indicam a possibilidade de uma importante proteção contra a umidade. A absorção de líquido pH-dependente dos filmes foi demonstrada e a menor absorção de líquido em meio ácido deve garantir uma proteção da forma farmacêutica, quando em contato com o meio gástrico. Os filmes se mostraram bastante mucoadesivos, o que deve favorecer a retenção da forma farmacêutica no sítio alvo e as características mecânicas se mostraram favoráveis para a elaboração de filmes para revestimento de formas farmacêuticas sólidas

This study objective was to review a selection of publications on the treatment of benign and malignant tumors with the use of natural medicines obtained from terrestrial and marine flora, both for use in chemotherapy and photodynamic therapy. There are many medications already being used for this purpose and many are still being tested in vivo and in vitro, but all with great future prospects for inclusion in the market

The aim of this study was to evaluate the facial profile changes due to natural growth and induced by Herbst appliance and Bionator in the treatment of Class II, division 1 malocclusion. In order to do that, we used a sample of 90 lateral radiographs of 45 individuals in pre-pubertal stage, divided up in two experimental groups and one control. The first group, composed of 15 brazilian individuals, with initial mean age of 9.4 years, was treated with the Herbst appliance for a period of seven months. The second experimental group consisting of 15 brazilian individuals, initial mean age of 9.9 years has gone through bionator therapy for an average period of 21 months. The control group of 15 individuals, who were not treated orthodontically, comes up from the Burlington Growth Centre, University of Toronto, Canada. The intragroup comparison was performed using the Student t test and intergroup comparisons by ANOVA complemented by the Bonferroni test. The results have shown that only the group treated with the Herbst appliance presented significant changes in facial profile with improvement of its convexity and lower lip protrusion.

Abstracts : The development of analytic methods more selective and sensitive is of great importance for a better quality in the determination of chemical species, therefore increasing the reliability of the results. In this way, the optimization of separation/concentration is still necessary. The use of Molecularly Imprinted Polymers - MIPs have demonstrated to be an efficient tool of analysis with a great potential in minimizing limitations of separation/concentration techniques traditionally employed. In general, the MIPs are obtained by polymerization in the presence of a template to be imprinted so that a polymeric skeleton is formed around the future analyte. In the present work, the template used is Estradiol Valerate (EV), compound used in the hormone replacement therapy (HRT) during climacteric. After the polymerization in bulk and in an anaerobic environment using MAA, EGDMA, AIBN, acetonitrile and VE, the obtained MIP was powdered, sifted (<120 μm) and placed in a soxhlet system containing ethanol at 60 °C, in order to remove the imprinted molecule through six successive washes in periods of 24 hours. The water used in the washings was analyzed using HPLC and spectrophotometry UV/Vis. Then, the obtained MIP was dried at room temperature and 150 mg was inset in SPE cartridges in order to evaluate the polymer's efficiency in the analyte pre-concentration and extraction. To do so, 100,0 mL of VE standard solution (2mg L-1) were pre-concentrated at 4,0 mL min-1 and eluted with 10,0 mL ethanol at 1,0 mL min-1, obtaining recoveries of 53%. Additionally, a NIP (non-imprinting polymer) was prepared to compare the obtained results, in which the recovery was 80%. In the same way, studies were conducted using commercial Strata™-X cartridges, obtaining 53% recovery. Since, the results did not reflect that than was expected, in relation with the MIP efficiency in the recovery, a computational ...
