Bioindicadores neotropicais de ecotoxicidade e risco ambiental de fármacos de interesse para aquicultura

The aims of this research were to evaluate the acute toxicity (LC/EC50) and the environmental risk of toltrazuril (TOL) and florfenicol (FFC) for plant Lemna minor, snail Pomacea canalicuta, fish Piaractus mesopotamicus and Hyphessobrycon eques and the microcrustacean Daphnia magna. The organisms were acclimated in room bioassay with controlled temperature according to standard to each one. They were exposed at nominal concentrations in static system. For environmental risk (RQ) was used the estimated environmental concentration (EEC) that is the dosage indicate to treatment and the lethal or effective concentration (LC/CE50) from each drug in acute exposure. FFC showed LC50;7d of 97.03 mg L-1 for L. minor; >100.0 mg L-1 for P. mesopotamicus and H. eques and EC50;48h > 100.0 mg L-1 for P. canaliculata and D. magna, and it was classified low risk (RQ = 0.01) for all bioindicators. TOL howed LC50;7d >100.0 mg L-1 for L. minor, 3.72 mg L-1 for P. mesopotamicus; 6.22 mg L-1 for H. eques and CE50;48h of 7.59 mg L-1 for P. canaliculata and 18.57 mg L-1 for D. magna, and it was classified low risk (RQ = 0.01) for L. minor and high risk for P. mesopotamicus (RQ = 2.68), H. eques (RQ = 6.22), P. canaliculata (RQ = 1.31) and D. magna (RQ = 0.53). Lemna minor was the bioindicator indicating of FFC toxicity and H. eques, bioindicator of the TOL. FFC is safety however and the use of TOL necessaries cautions to treat the wastewater before discard on the environment.

Análise comparativa dos estudos de impacto ambiental (EIA-RIMA) de projetos dutoviários no Brasil: estudo dos gasodutos Paulínia-Jacutinga, Rio de Janeiro-Belo Horizonte e Urucu-Porto Velho

Pipelines are linear construction that intersect several environments, requiring integration of environmental and technical aspects in its various elaboration steps. Environmental impact assessment if made to integrate the environmental information to enable environmental characterization, possibility identify previously fragilities of environment what contributes to the safety forecast of the significant impacts. These studies shall consider superimpose of the elements and the worsening of critical situations that already exists. In this way, meet and analyse informations about the environmental impact assessment, constructive aspects related to pipelines transport and get environmental impact studies of the case studies, providing the student a critical vision for the discussion of the apropiate balance between description and analysis, methodological rigour and the interface between construction and the environmente with inserts. Performing the critical analysis of methodologies and applied criteria for the environmental diagnosis and impact identification, search improve the methodologies for elaboration of environmental impact studies for linear construction, particulary pipelines, minin conflicts and giving security for the license process. Await provide subsidy to direction data collection, for choosing environmental indicator and for the prognosis and indentification of impacts.

Medidas de adequação ambiental para indústria de leite e derivados, como requisito para gestão ambiental

The society continues demonstrating its need regarding the products and services, even though it becomes increasingly value the protection of the environment. In this context, environmental management is defined as a management method that emphasizes to continuously improve results and promote sustainable development. Moreover it has as a tool the laws which provide the benchmarks and mechanisms for companies to adapt their activities in such a way that does not alter the quality of the environment. In this sense, in order to propose improvements to a dairy aiming their environmental suitability, a present study was prepared by following the production activities of the enterprise, the raising of standards and applicable legal requirements and environmental assessment for the preparation of an array of aspects and impacts with the task of identifying the most significant according to MOREIRA (2006). The results indicated that some of the impacts of high relevance are related to the generation of wastewater and solid waste, which do not have treatment and / or proper disposal and indeed require intervention for their suitability. Through, these results were drawn up proposals for actions conformation. In addition, they were proposed meeting the requirement for health and safety at work, in accordance with the standard regulations. This study has the function, therefore, propose to the company in question, an environmental management plan that ensures the protection of the environment and health of employees and consequently the improvement of production processes and products

Projeto de Educação Ambiental e Lazer (PEDAL): dialogando a partir do cicloturismo na escola

The PEDAL had beginning with an interested group in accomplishing walks and bicycle trips looking for fruition of the disentailed leisure of the consumption. The objective of this report of experience is to present the cicloturismo as an alternative of fruition of the leisure that has been making possible debates and reflections that seek to the understanding of alunos/as of the basic education on the interface among the themes leisure, environmental education and quality of the life. In this report we considered intervention accomplished at a school of fundamental teaching in the city of Saint Carlos-SP. Starting from the results of the analysis of the registrations produced pelos/as alunos/as, we considered that the theme, of interest of the same ones, raised the construction of significant reflections, such as: the possibility of the use of the bicycle as means of transportation for the work or for the leisure; the need of public politics that promote and guarantee safety and respect to the cyclist.

Transgenia da área de alimentos: uma abordagem de desenvolvimento científico e de segurança alimentar

A produção de alimentos, em quantidade e qualidade suficientes para alimentar a crescente população mundial, é um constante desafio para os governantes, pois requer a conjunção do aumento da produtividade, proteção ambiental e redução do uso de agrotóxicos. O trabalho dos geneticistas nas metodologias tradicionais de pesquisa científica, que transferiam milhares de genes e eliminavam os indesejáveis em muitos anos de trabalho, atualmente pode ser realizado em tempo relativamente curto com as chamadas técnicas de engenharia genética, abrindo uma perspectiva de maior produção de alimentos, iniciada com as culturas de tomate, batata, soja e milho nas últimas décadas do século passado e amplamente empregada hoje. No entanto, o tema da transgenia de alimentos é ainda polêmico e provoca grandes discussões na comunidade científica, principalmente em relação aos possíveis riscos à saúde e prejuízo ao meio ambiente. Com o desenvolvimento de processos agroindustriais, especificamente ao cultivo de alimentos com tecnologia de DNA recombinante, denominados como alimentos transgênicos ou ainda como alimentos geneticamente modificados, criou-se um amplo debate acerca de seus benefícios e malefícios, envolvendo nesta questão interesses conflitantes de grandes conglomerados da biotecnologia, produtores rurais dos grandes aos pequenos e consumidores com seus representantes. Nesta revisão trataremos dos principais tipos.
