Otimização da aplicação de Fluazifop-P-Butil em pós-emergência na cultura de soja (Glycine max)

The objective of this study was to evaluate the possibility of reducing spray concentration and volume of Fluazifop-p-butyl applications on postemergence soybeans, while maintaining weed control and growth selectivity. The study was conducted in the experimental area of the Teaching and Research Farm of FCAV/Unesp - Jaboticabal Campus, during the agricultural season of 1998/99, carried out on a crop of soybean cultivar FT 2009. The experimental setup utilized was a randomized block design with 24 treatments, 20 following a factorial scheme 2 x 2 x 5 and 4 control treatments. The factors examined were: spray volume (100 and 200 L ha-1); reduced spray concentration - 75.2 and 112.8 g of fluazifop-p-butyl/ha (40 and 60% of the recommended concentration, respectively); and application schedule (5 A.M., 9 A.M., 1 P.M., 5 P.M. and 9 P.M.). The controls were applications at the recommended concentration (188.0 g fluazifop-p-butyl/ha), using volumes of 100 and 200 L ha-1, and treatments without weed control and weeds controlled with manual hoeing. The main species of weeds that emerged in the experimental area were: Cenchrus echinatus, comprising 60% of the infested sections; Digitaria horizontalis, 10%, and Eleusine indica, 30%. All fluazifop-p-butyl applications made up to 9 A.M. and from 5 P.M. effectively controlled the three species of weeds and provided a selective growth of soybeans. Therefore, the use of fluazifop-p-butyl can be optimized by reducing both the concentration and the volume of the spray for applications times providing favorable conditions for crop dusting.

Chemical composition and lipoxygenase activity in soybeans (Glycine max L. Merr.) submitted to gamma irradiation

Soybeans are an important food due to their functional and nutritional characteristics. However, consumption by western populations is limited by the astringent taste of soybeans and their derivatives which results from the action of lipoxygenase, an enzyme activated during product processing. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of gamma irradiation on the chemical composition and specific activity of lipoxygenase in different soybean cultivars. Soybeans were stored in plastic bags and irradiated with doses of 2.5, 5 and 10 kGy. The chemical composition (moisture, protein, lipids, ashes, crude fiber, and carbohydrates) and lipoxygenase specific activity were determined for each sample. Gamma irradiation induced a small increase of protein and lipid content in some soybean cultivars, which did not exceed the highest content of 5% and 26%, respectively, when compared to control. Lipoxygenase specific activity decreased in the three cultivars with increasing gamma irradiation dose. In conclusion, the gamma irradiation doses used are suitable to inactivate part of lipoxygenase while not causing expressive changes in the chemical composition of the cultivars studied.

Desenvolvimento e estabilidade de formulações semi-solidas contendo extratos de soja (Glycine max (L) Merr.)

Alguns vegetais, como a soja (Glycine max L. Merr), despertam interesse, pois fornecem, entre outras substâncias, as isoflavonas, que apresentam importantes propriedades estrogênicas e, também, atuam como antioxidantes, antifúngicos e anticancerígenos. A menopausa, causada pela deficiência hormonal, é acompanhada de vários transtornos metabólicos, como perda de massa óssea, fenômenos vasomotores, dislipidemia, resistência insulínica, ganho de peso, depressão e aceleração do envelhecimento cutâneo. A terapia de reposição hormonal (TRH) é eficaz, embora possa causar efeitos secundários, como câncer de mama. Nestes casos, a fitoterapia com fitormônios por via cutânea é uma alternativa importante. Dentre as preparações de uso tópico, sistemas emulsionados e géis são muito utilizados, pois favorecem a solubilidade e a estabilidade de fármacos. Para avaliar a estabilidade das formulações, foram consideradas as características organolépticas (aspecto, cor, odor) e as características físico-químicas (valor de pH, viscosidade e densidade, etc.), separação de fases e/ou coalescência. Algumas formulações apresentam-se com características desejáveis e adequadas para a veiculação de isoflavonas presentes em extrato de soja, podendo-se sugeri-las como sistemas adequados e estáveis para sua veiculação pela via dérmica

The water effect on allosteric regulation of hemoglobin probed in water glucose and water glycine solutions

We have previously proposed a role of hydration in the allosteric control of hemoglobin based on the effect of varying concentrations of polyols and polyethers on the human hemoglobin oxygen affinity and on the solution water activity (Colombo, M. F., Rau, D. C., and Parsegian, V. A. (1992) Science 256, 655-659). Here, the original analyses are extended to test the possibility of concomitant solute and water allosteric binding and by introducing the bulk dielectric constant as a variable in our experiments. We present data which indicate that glycine and glucose influence HbA oxygen affinity to the same extent, despite the fact that glycine increases and glucose decreases the bulk dielectric constant of the solution. Furthermore, we derive an equation linking changes in oxygen affinity to changes in differential solute and water binding to test critically the possibility of neutral solute heterotropic binding. Applied to the data, these analyses support our original interpretation that neutral solutes act indirectly on the regulation of allosteric behavior of hemoglobin by varying the chemical potential of water in solution. This leads to a displacement of the equilibrium between Hb conformational states in proportion to their differential hydration.
