Determinação do teor dos ingredientes ativos imidacloprida e clorpirifós em produtos técnicos formulados por CLUE-DAD

The use of pesticides to manage pest problems in agriculture has become a common practice around the world. Pesticides consist in chemical substances or biological agents that act preventing, destroying, repelling or mitigating the damage caused by pests in agriculture. In order to a successful treatment, the correct dosage of pesticide has to be applied for each kind of culture. In this context, this project aims to quantify the levels of the active ingredients Imidacloprid and Chlorpyrifos present in formulated technical products and compare with the reported in the ir commercial leaflets. The analyzes were performed by Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography coupled to a photodiode array detector (CLUE-DAD). The identification of Imidacloprid and Chlorpyrifos in the samples was realized by comparison of the time of retention and UV spectre of those substances with the commercials patterns, resulting in a excellent method specificity of the method. In the scope of determination of active ingredients in formulated products, the method developed showed good sensitivity in the applied conditions, with suitables limits of detection (4,2.10-² mg L-¹ for Imidacloprid and 1,1.10-¹ mg L-¹ to Chlorpyrifos) and quantitation (1,4.10-¹ mg L-¹ and Imidacloprid 3,6.10-¹ mg L-¹ to Chlorpyrifos) for the concentrations found in matrices analyzed. Furthermore, good results were obtained to the method accuracy with coeficiente of variance values in the range of 0,6 to 0,7% for repeatability (intra-day) and 0,4 to 0,58% for intermediate precision (inter- day).

Desenvolvimento de métodos cromatográficos para a padronização do extrato de Eugenia speciosa Cambess

The use of medicinal plants is common in many Brazil's ethnic groups, because the diversity of plant species in the country is large. But the utilization of these plants as standardized herbal doesn't occur with de same frequency, due the lack of studies related to these therapies, classified as alternatives. Due to the high cost of some synthetic medicines for the treatment of chronic diseases, phytotherapy is a low-cost alternative and efficient, since the phytomedication has proven scientific studies and its production meets strict criteria for manufacturing and quality control to ensure its safety and efficacy. Among the medicinal species used for the treatment of chronic diseases, such as pain and inflammation, is Eugenia speciosa Cambess, popularly known as the bush laranjinha. Against this context, this paper held preliminary studies and developed the chromatographic profile of the hydroalcoholic extract of the leaves of E. speciosa by High Performance Liquid Chromatography coupled to photodiode array detector (CLAE-DAD). Preliminary qualitative results and the chromatographic profile have identified some metabolites classes present and some constituent as: homogentisic acid, homorientina, isovitexin and quercetrin

Estudo químico dos escapos de Paepalanthus geniculatus Kunth

Eriocaulaceae species are popularly known as sempre-vivas. This family comprising approximately 1.200 species divided into 10 genera, with high endemic levels. Paepalanthus genus has high incidence in the Espinhaço Range region and the report of biological activities. Despite the large number of previous studies with Eriocaulaceae species, Paepalanthus geniculatus has no studies about their scapes, which demonstrates the need for new research to identify their chemical and biological composition. The aim of this work was to study the chemical composition of P. geniculatus ethanolic extract seeking the isolation and identification of metabolites and evaluate the radical scavenging activity of the extract and isolated substances. P. geniculatus were collected in Serra do Cipó-MG in 2013 (Voucher: SANO 3193) and the scapes were dried, crushed and the powder was percolated with ethanol. With the etanolic extract it is carried out a fractionation by gel permeation chromatography, yielding fractions analyzed by TLC assay. The fraction J89 (45,6 mg) was purified by semipreparative HPLC-PDA, resulting in the isolation of substance S1. The fractionation was also performed by medium pressure liquid chromatography, yielding fractions analyzed by TLC assay. The fraction number 4 (92,6 mg) were purified by semipreparative HPLC-PDA resulting in the isolation of substances S2 and S3. The substances S1 and S3 were analyzed by mono and twodimensional NMR, resulting in the identification of 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (protocatechuic acid) and the flavonoid 6-hydroxyquercetin-7-O-β-Dglucopyranoside. The substance S2 were identified by comparison with standards, were it was possible to determine the presence of the flavonoid 6-hydroxy-7- methoxyquercetin-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside. The evaluation of radical scavenging activity for the extract and the isolated substances using DPPH, showed consistent activity to S1...

Documentação química de espécies do gênero Casearia (Salicaceae) de importância ecológica, econômica e medicinal

The Casearia genus (Salicaceae) is well known because of the medicinal use of its species. Among them, a noteworthy one is the C. sylvestris specie because it already has studies concerning its antiproliferative and/or cytotoxic activity in tumor cells. Furthermore, this specie is popularly used against snake bites, in gastric ulcers treatment and as anti-inflammatory. As well as this, there are other species from this same genus which have been poorly studied, such as the following species: C. decandra, C. grandiflora, C. javitensis, C. arborea, C. lasiophylla and C. ulmifolia. However, several biological activities have been reported for them. In this context, the aim of this project, besides of contributing to the Casearia genus studies, is to study those six species through the analysis and documentation of their leaves' chemical composition (aqueous, ethanolic and hexanic extracts), using analytical separation techniques coupled with spectroscopic techniques, such as UHPLC-DAD, GC-MS and NMR 1H, which will assist the identification of new secondary metabolites in this genus. Moreover, another goal of this present work is aiming the bioprospection of substances with medicinal and economical potential and finally promote the systematic study of some biological activities, such as antimicrobial and cytotoxicity bioassays. A wide variety of metabolites was identified in those three types of extracts, being most of them detected for the first time in Casearia genus, highlighting C. lasiophylla and C. decandra for featuring antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus.

Modo de aplicação e eficiência de inseticidas granulados sistêmicos para o controle de cigarras (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) do cafeeiro

Avaliou-se a eficiência de métodos de aplicação de inseticidas granulados sistêmicos para o controle das cigarras Quesada gigas (Olivier) e Dorisiana drewseni (Stål) do cafeeiro (Coffea arabica). O ensaio foi conduzido em cafezal cv. Mundo Novo com idade de seis anos, espaçamento de 3,5 X 1,5 m, com uma planta/cova, no ano agrícola 1992/1993. Utilizou-se um delineamento em blocos casualizados, com 21 tratamentos e 4 repetições, cada uma contendo parcelas de cinco plantas. Os tratamentos consistiram nas aplicações dos produtos triadimenol + disulfoton 1,5% + 7,5% (26 g/cova), aldicarb 150G (10,00 g/cova), ethoprophos 100G (30,00 g/cova), phorate 5G (80,00 g/cova) e terbufos 5G (40,00 g/cova) em quatro modalidades de aplicação: aplicador costal manual Mebuki TF8; canequinha, lançando o produto para o ápice da planta; aplicador tratorizado Kamaq CK2-AG; e sulcos em meia lua, abertos manualmente, na projeção da copa. As avaliações foram realizadas aos 70, 105 e 140 dias após aplicação dos produtos, onde foram efetuadas aberturas de trincheiras de 50 X 50 X 50cm por cova, procedendo-se a contagem do número de ninfas vivas. Concluiu-se que o aplicador costal manual e canequinha revelaram-se os mais eficientes (86,0 - 93,5% e 76,8 - 86,7%, respectivamente); aplicação tratorizada e sulcos na projeção de copa tiveram sua eficiência variável com o produto utilizado; terbufos apresentou maior redução da população (98,2 - 100%) e phorate (79,6 - 99,1%) e a mistura triadimenol + disulfoton (82,3 - 97,3%) apresentaram alta eficiência, não diferindo do terbufos. Aldicarb apresentou desempenho satisfatório (68,1 - 85,0%) conforme o modo de aplicação e ethoprophos não foi eficaz quando aplicado com o aplicador costal manual (58,4%), canequinha (45,1%) e sulco (31,9%).
