A cultura da figueira é afetada pelo vírus-do-mosaico e a cultura de tecidos é uma alternativa para se proceder à limpeza clonal. Neste trabalho, objetivou-se estudar o efeito da cinetina e GA3 na multiplicação in vitro da figueira. Segmentos nodais foram inoculados em meio de cultura WPM contendo as seguintes combinações de cinetina (0; 0,5; 1; 2 e 4 mg.L-1) e GA3 (0, 2, 4, 6 e 8 mg.L-1). Avaliaram-se número e comprimento dos brotos, peso da matéria fresca e seca da parte aérea, número de raízes, peso da matéria fresca e seca do sistema radicular e de calos. A utilização de 0,5 mg.L-1 de cinetina promoveu melhor taxa de multiplicação in vitro de Ficus carica. O GA3 reduziu a formação e multiplicação dos brotos e induziu ao estiolamento, à hiperidricidade, clorose e necrose apical das plântulas.

Adição de carvão ativado e giberelina no meio de cultura podem proporcionar melhores condições no desenvolvimento de embriões imaturos de citros. Objetivou-se avaliar o efeito de carvão ativado e GA3 (ácido giberélico) no cultivo de embriões imaturos provenientes do cruzamento entre laranjeira 'Pêra Rio' x tangerineira 'Poncã'. Após 118 dias da polinização, frutos imaturos, com 3 a 4 cm de diâmetro, foram coletados, suas sementes removidas e tratadas com álcool (70%) por cinco minutos, hipoclorito de sódio (2%) por 20 minutos e, posteriormente, lavadas três vezes em água destilada e autoclavada. em condições assépticas, os tegumentos das sementes foram separados, os embriões globulares excisados e inoculados em tubos de ensaio contendo 15 mL do meio MT, acrescido de carvão ativado (0; 0,5; 1; 1,5 e 2 g L-1) e GA3 (0; 0,01; 0,1; 1 e 10 mg L-1). Após a inoculação, os embriões permaneceram por 90 dias em sala de crescimento a 27+1ºC, fotoperíodo de 16 horas e irradiância de 32 mmol m-2 s-1. Maior comprimento da parte aérea foi obtido em meio MT, acrescido de 0,1 e 1 mg L-1 de GA3, combinado com 2 g L-1 de carvão ativado. Maior comprimento do sistema radicular, massa da matéria fresca e número de folhas de plântulas foram obtidos em meio MT, acrescido de 0,01 mg L-1 de GA3, na ausência de carvão ativado. A adição de carvão ativado influenciou na concentração de ácido giberélico acrescido no meio de cultura.

OBJETIVO: Avaliar os efeitos da suplementação com ácido linoléico conjugado, associada ao treinamento moderado em natação, sobre a composição corporal, o consumo e a eficiência alimentar, a glicemia, o perfil lipídico e o glicogênio muscular e hepático de ratos Wistar. MÉTODOS: Ratos Wistar (30 dias) foram divididos em: sedentário, sedentário suplementado, treinado e treinado suplementado. Permaneceram em gaiolas individuais com comida e água ad libitum, temperatura de 23ºC (com variação de1ºC) e ciclo claro-escuro de 12 horas, durante 8 semanas. A sessão de natação durou 1 hora e foi realizada três vezes/semana, bem como a suplementação com ácido linoléico conjugado a 2%. Após sacrifício, o plasma, os tecidos adiposos brancos e o marrom, o músculo gastrocnêmio e o fígado foram coletados e pesados. RESULTADOS: A suplementação per se não promoveu modificação na ingestão alimentar e na massa corporal dos animais. Houve aumento na glicemia de jejum (p<0,05), nas lipoproteínas de alta densidade (p<0,05), no colesterol total (p<0,05) e redução dos triacilgliceróis. A suplementação associada ao treinamento reduziu a massa corporal (p<0,05) e aumentou o peso relativo do tecido adiposo, do fígado e a glicemia de jejum. CONCLUSÃO: A suplementação com ácido linoléico conjugado associada à prática de exercício físico parece ter influência no balanço energético, mas, por outro lado, o aumento no peso do fígado indica que a ingestão deste ácido graxo pode ter efeitos indesejáveis, aumentando as chances de desenvolvimento do fígado gorduroso. Estes achados apontam perspectivas para novos estudos envolvendo análises histológicas do fígado, expressão gênica de enzimas chaves do metabolismo lipídico e de carboidratos, associados ou não a diferentes protocolos de treinamento físico.

As cultivares Mineiro e Vrockwona do capim-elefante (Pennisetumpurpureun Schum) foram cortadas aos 75 dias de desenvolvimento, ensiladas em tambores metálicos e submetidas a quatro tratamentos: 1. Emurchecimento ao sol por oito horas; 2. Adição de 0,5% de formal ao material seco e picado; 3. Adição de 0,5% de ácido fórmico (85%); e 4. Adição de 0,2% da solução de "Viher" (70% formal + 26% ácido fórmico + 4% água). Quando o tratamento adotado foi o emurchecimento, os teores de carboidratos solúveis foram suficientes para produzir silagens láticas com baixos teores de pH, e ácidos acético e butírico. Na ensilagem das duas cultivares do capim-elefante, cortadas aos 75 dias de desenvolvimento, houve necessidade de se elevar a dose da solução de "Viher" para que se evitasse a obtenção de silagens inferiores.

O objetivo do experimento foi verificar o efeito do nitrogénio no solo, parcelado de diferentes formas e aplicado durante o período de "verão", combinado com pulverização foliar de ureia e/ou ácido giberélico, sobre a produção e qualidade de Setaria anceps Stapf cv. Kazungula. O nitrogênio (60 kg/ha/ano) foi aplicado segundo quatro formas de parcelamento: Testemunha (sem nitrogênio), N20M40 (20 kg/ha de N em novembro + 40 kg/ha de N em março), N30M30 (30 kg/ha de N em novembro + 30 kg/ha de N em março), F20M40 (20 kg/ha de N em fevereiro + 40 kg/ha de N em março). No início do período de "inverno" foram aplicados os quatro tipos de pulverizações foliares: Testemunha (sem ácido giberélico ou uréia), uréia a 2%, ácido giberélico a 50 ppm e uréia a 2% + ácido giberélico a 50 ppm. Os resultados revelaram que o parcelamento do nitrogénio no solo não influiu no aumento da produção de matéria seca do capim setária no período de "verão", apesar de proporcionar um incremento da mesma no corte de "inverno". Observou-se, ainda, uma boa distribuição da produção de matéria seca entre "verão" e "inverno", apresentando essa última estação 34,52% da produção total anual, em média. Os diferentes tipos de pulverização não influíram significativamente sobre a produção de matéria seca e a composição química bromatológica da forrageira no período de "inverno".

The effect of indol-3-acetic acid (lAA) and calcium (Ca + + ) on the flow of water through Nitella celIs was studied. Nitella cernua Braun was selected because it is possible tb study the permeability of a single isolated cell. IAA was used at a concentration of 0,28 10-3 M and CaCI2 at 10-3 M. The effect of IAA on the isolated celIs was confirmed by the increase of plasticity and permeability of the plasmalema of th.e treated cells with absorption and a consequent elimination of water. The effect was reversed by Ca ions.

This experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect of the addition of fumaric acid to broiler diet on birds performance. One thousand and eighty Hubbard day-old broiler chicks were alloted in a randomized block design, six treatments with two replicates of males, and four replicates of females. Three basal diets were formulated to meet the nutritional requirements in each growing phase: from 1 to 21 days, 21 to 37 days and 37 to 45 days. Treatments consisted first in the addition of growth promoter to 0.75 and 1.0%, of fumaric acid. The group treated without of both growth promoter and fumaric acid presented a higher intake and a smaller feed:gain ratio in relation to the fumaric acid treated groups. However, there were no differences among groups treated with growth promoter and fumaric acid. The contrasts did not show any difference among weight gain, carcass yield and abdominal fat. The addition of fumaric acid levels to the diets promoted reduction of feed intake, without any effect on weight gain, improving, therefore, the feed/gain ratio. A digestibility experiment was carried out, using 30 Hy-Line roosters, to determine apparent metabolyzed energy (AME), corrected by nitrogen of the diets containing 0.0, 0.5 and 1.0% of the acid. An increase on the AME of the diets was observed with fumaric acid addition.

Calla lily (Zantedeschia aethiopica) is appreciated as cut flower and for the composition of gardens. However, many pathogens affect this species. By the traditional method of propagation, some units of new seedlings can only be produced annually. Tissue culture allows fast large-scale clonal propagation and provides healthy uniform plants. During the in vitro process, type and concentration of growth regulator could affect the growth of seedlings. Thus, the aim of this work was to determine sucrose and GA(3) concentrations to increase the efficiency of the in vitro multiplication of calla lily. After 60 days, the length of the above ground part and the roots, the number of sprouts, roots and leaves, above ground part and root fresh weight of seedlings were evaluated. The experimental design was entirely randomized with four replications. It was necessary the addition of 60.5 g L-1 sucrose associated to 5 mg L-1 GA(3) to obtain hight sprouts number. For higher length of the above ground part the addition of 45.3 g L-1 sucrose and 10 mg L-1 GA(3) was enough. Better results in the root length and number of roots were observed only in the sucrose presence, in concentrations in the range of 51.13 - 56.5 g L-1.

The aim of this work was evaluate the physiological indicators of association between water deficiency and soil acidity, by determining the nitrate reductase activity, the levels of free proline and initial growth of the root system of seedlings of sugarcane cv. IAC91-5155. After 30 days, the seedlings were transferred to plastic pots with 12 dm3 of dystrophic alic Red Latosol (Oxisol) and submitted to association of three treatments of water availability: no stress (70%), moderate stress (55%) and severe stress (40%), in according with field capacity and three acidity treatments: no stress (55%), moderate stress (33%) and severe stress (23%), considering the base saturation. The experimental design was that of random blocks under factorial scheme of 3x3, with four replicates. After 60 days under the stress association, the levels of free proline, the nitrate reductase activity and the growth of the sugarcane roots system were evaluated in seedlings of sugarcane. The nitrate reductase enzyme activity can be considered a physiological indicator of the effect of the association of acid and water stress in moderate conditions in soil, while the free proline can be considered physiological indicator to both stress in severe conditions. Water deficiency increasing reduced growth of sugarcane roots.

In eighteen dogs, the effects of halothane (0,75% and 1,5%) associated with a normo and hypercapnia (PaCO2 from 30 to 80 mmHg) on acid-base balance were studied. Determinations of creatine clearance, urinary flow, urinary acid excretion, and urinary ammonium excretion were made. Based on the results, it is concluded that halothane associated with hypercapnia decreases the glomerular filtration rate, the urinary flow, the urinary pH and the urinary bicarbonate and sodium excretion, increases the plasmatic bicarbonate concentration, the bicarbonate reabsorbed, the urinary acid excretion and the urinary ammonium excretion, but does not alter the base excess.

The skin pigmentation caused by ultraviolet light irradiation as a defense against the carcinogenic action of solar light may lead to early skin aging and to hyperchromia, which treatment requires the use of photo-protective, depigmenting and rejuvenating agents. Recently, there have been used many substances for the prevention and/or treatment of skin aging as well as to lowering the skin pigmentation. Glycolic acid is the alpha-hydroxy acid most commonly used in cosmetic and dermatological prepatations. This use is due to its depigmentating and rejuvenating properties and its efficacy at different concentrations, when incorporated to different kind of excipients.

Retinoic acid, which has been prescribed for some forms of acne since 1962, is subject to isomerization provoked by atmospheric oxygen and ambient light. Therefore it is very important to keep this material intact through the use of antioxidants. We tested two antioxidants: various concentrations of butylhydroxytoluene or BHT, widely used in cosmetic and dermatological preparations, and vitamin E, found in grape oil, an ingredient of skin lotion. Recently prepared lotions were subject to heat stress and the residual concentrations of retinoic acid determined at predetermined intervals through UV spectrophotometry. The shelf life of the various preparations were determined by the Arrhenius equation. The antioxidants helped conserve the retinoic acid, however, there was no synergism in antioxidant activity between the vitamin E in the grape seed oil and BHT.

This study correlated the solid preoperative fasting periods with plasma glycemia, serum cortisol, condition clinic and acid-base balance in dogs submitted to inhalation of general anaesthesia. Eight adults, animals were distributed into three groups in accordance with solid preoperative fasting: group 1 (12 hours), group 2 (18 hours) and group 3 (24 hours). Gastric emptying was observed and following this animals were submitted to the same anesthetic procedure. Heart and respiratory rate, rectal temperature, capillary refill time, percent hydration and noninvasive arterial pressure determined before and after Acepromazine and every 10 minutes during anaesthesia, included ETCO 2; values blood gas (pH, PaCO 2, PaO 2, HCO 3, TCO 2, SaO 2, BE), glycemic and serum cortisol were analyzed before MPA and each 30 minutes during anaesthesia. In recovery anaesthetic, glycemia and serum cortisol were repeated. During anaesthesia there were little cardiovascular and respiratory alteration not having interference of the preoperative fasting periods. Animals with 12 hours of the preoperative fasting showed a higher rise in glycemia levels than others groups in recovery anaesthetic. Serum cortisol wasn't influenced by fasting. Solid preoperative fasting independent of the duration describe a discreet respiratory alkalosis. All animals showed good clinical condition in all three groups. Solid preoperative fasting of the 18 hours is recommended to ensure a complete absence of the solid food contents in stomach.
