This study evaluated the chemical and lipid composition of uncooked or cooked loin (Longissimus thoracis) and rump (Biceps femoris) in samples of 2.54 cm thick from 35 carcasses of Nellore young bulls finished in feedlot for 96 days and slaughtered at an average weight of 532.17 ± 30.25 kg and 24 months of age. The rump had the lowest level of protein and ash (18.57 and 0.90%, respectively) and the highest level of ether extract compared to loin (3.37 and 1.90%, respectively). Higher levels of cholesterol were found in rump compared to loin (40.91 e 30.93 mg 100 g-1, respectively). The uncooked loin showed lower content of saturated fatty acids and higher content of polyunsaturated fatty acids. The best values for the omega-6: omega-3 ratio was observed in the uncooked beef. In the present study, the loin was healthier due to the higher amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids compared to rump. Cooking the meat decreases the levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, omega-3, omega-6 and the omega-6: omega-3 ratio.

Guava (Psidium guajava L.) is a plant often employed in popular medicine. Recently several studies have alerted about the toxicity of substances present in medicinal plants, which can pose risks to the human health. In this sense, the present work aimed to investigate the phytotoxic, cytotoxic and genotoxic action of three guava varieties - Paluma, Pedro Sato and Roxa (purple) - on the plant test system Lactuca sativa L. Thus, macro- and microscopic evaluations were carried out for five infusion concentrations (2.5, 5.0, 10.0, 20.0 and 40.0 g.L-1) prepared from each variety. Distilled water was used as negative control. Chromatographic and spectroscopic analysis by HPLC-PAD indicated that the chemical composition of the infusion of Roxa is different than that of the infusions of the varieties Paluma and Pedro Sato. It was observed that seed germination and root growth in L. sativa exposed to infusions decreased with increasing infusion concentration, regardless of the tested cultivar. For the mitotic index, no statistical differences were observed. On the other hand, a significant increase in the frequency of cell cycle alterations was verified, especially for the highest concentrations tested. The cytogenotoxic was significant. Therefore, guava should not be used indiscriminately in popular medicine.

Seed dispersal is a key process in the life cycle of plant species and may determine the dynamics of their populations. The passage of the fruit from the gastrointestinal tract brings effects on energy and nutritional rewards for the bird. The retention time of the seeds is an essential factor for the dispersion, affecting the dispersal distance. Some factors determine it, as the size of the bird, degree of frugivory, chemical composition of the fruit, the number and size of seeds. The study sought to characterize the Morus nigra seed retention time in three species of thrushes and compare them with other species of birds and plants. The blackberry, exotic species with socio-economic importance in Brazil, produces aggregate fruit having up to 60 seeds. Have been kept in captivity individuals leucomelas Turdus rufiventris thrush, thrush and amaurochalinus, native and omnivorous species, important dispersers in degraded areas, inhabiting the urban and the natural environment. In 274 samples of feces was recorded about 500 mulberry seeds. The first record of seeds was in 15 minutes (n = 2) and the last to 115 minutes (n = 4) after eating the fruit. The average time of gastrointestinal transit of seed for the three species was 52 minutes and 80% were defecated to 65 minutes post ingestion. Taking into consideration the type of fruit and the species of bird, there is great variation in the retention time when compared to other species of birds, being in general slower. That way, can be increase the degree of dispersion of the seed to more distant areas of the mother plant, increasing the chances of survival of seedlings, according to the hypothesis Janzen and Connell. The Turdus It showed efficient dispersers Morus nigra seeds, and inhabits natural and urbanized environment, the possibility of exchange of these seeds between environments by the action of thrushes

Para produzir o termopotássio e, até mesmo, o KCl, a rocha silicática potássica (verdete) passa pelo processo de calcinação. Neste processo é gerado um resíduo denominado coproduto que contém em sua composição química 3% a 4% de K2O, Ca, Mg e Si e apresenta baixa solubilidade em água. O presente trabalho objetivou testar a hipótese de que doses de K2O na forma de coproduto fornecem potássio para as plantas de milho em menor quantidade do que as mesmas doses na forma de KCl, inclusive no estudo do efeito residual, e que o potássio extraído do solo pela resina trocadora de íons tem maior correlação com as quantidades de potássio absorvida pela planta de milho do que com o potássio extraído pela solução extratora de Mehlich-1. O experimento foi conduzido em casa de vegetação, onde foram realizados dois cultivos consecutivos de milho em amostras de Neossolo Quartizarênico órtico. O delineamento foi em blocos casualizados com duas fontes de K (KCl e coproduto), três doses de K2O (0, 200 e 400 kg ha-1) e quatro repetições, totalizando 24 unidades experimentais. Foram determinados os teores de potássio extraído da amostra de solo pela solução extratora de Mehlich-1 e resina trocadora de íons, a produção de matéria seca da parte aérea das plantas de milho, os teores e o acumulo de potássio nas plantas após o primeiro e o segundo cultivo. Em dois cultivos consecutivos das plantas de milho, a aplicação de 200 e 400 kg ha-1 de K2O na forma de KCl proporcionou o acumulo de potássio na parte aérea das plantas de 77 e 84% maior do que aplicação dessas mesmas doses de K2O na forma de coproduto, respectivamente. A aplicação de 200 e 400 kg ha-1 de K2O na forma de coproduto proporcionou aumentos no acumulo de potássio da parte aérea das plantas de milho de 66 e 75% em relação ao controle (sem K2O), respectivamente. A recuperação de potássio pelas plantas de milho tratadas com KCl foi de 92% e as plantas...
