A utilização de práticas culturais que permitam programar a época de produção é fundamental para a exploração da cultura da atemoleira em clima tropical. Em determinados tipos de clima, associada a outras técnicas culturais, a desfolha permite induzir a brotação das gemas de atemoleira, podendo controlar a época de produção da cultura. Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar diferentes tratamentos de desfolha para a indução da brotação de atemoleiras sob condições tropicais. O experimento foi realizado em cultivo comercial localizado no município de Limoeiro do Norte-CE, utilizando atemoleiras 'Gefner' com cinco anos de idade, enxertadas sob o porta-enxerto de pinha. Cerca de dez dias após a colheita, realizou-se a poda de produção e, em seguida, aplicaram-se os tratamentos: 1) testemunha (sem aplicação da desfolha); 2) desfolha manual; 3) ureia 150 g L-1; 4) ureia 150 g L-1 + óleo mineral 24 mL L-1; 5) ureia 150 g L-1 + sulfato de cobre 10 g L-1; 6) sulfato de cobre 10 g L-1 +óleo mineral 24 mL L-1; 7) ureia 150 g L-1 + óleo mineral 24 mL L-1 + sulfato de cobre 10 g L-1; 8) etefom 2,4 mL L-1. Todos os tratamentos químicos testados induziram a desfolha e a brotação, sobretudo as aplicações foliares de etefom 2,4 mL L-1 e combinação de sulfato de cobre 10 g L-1 + óleo mineral 24 mL L-1.

Entre os fatores edáficos, os ligados à acidez são os que mais interferem na produtividade, especialmente nas regiões tropicais. Para a cultura das anonáceas, não há resultados de pesquisa que indiquem a adequada saturação por bases, nem tão pouco a determinação de doses, épocas, modos de aplicação e fontes de nutrientes para pomares de anonáceas em formação e produção, a fim de promover sustentabilidade e elevadas produtividades. Tendo em vista a importância e o potencial de exploração comercial das anonáceas no Brasil e, considerando-se a escassa informação científica disponível sobre calagem, adubação e nutrição dessa família de plantas frutíferas, algumas pesquisas têm urgência de serem realizadas em função dos efeitos dos nutrientes sobre a produtividade, a qualidade dos frutos, a pós-colheita, a tolerância a pragas e doenças e, etc.

RESUMOA pitaia-rosa de polpa vermelha é uma cactácea com potencial para exploração econômica, devido aos seus componentes nutricionais e ao alto valor comercial; no entanto, poucas são as pesquisas quanto a suas características pós-colheita. O objetivo do trabalho foi caracterizar física, química e nutricionalmente pitaias-rosas de polpa vermelha. Frutos colhidos totalmente maduros foram sanitizados, selecionados e divididos em grupos de quatro frutos por repetição, constituindo um total de 30 amostras. Em seguida, as amostras foram submetidas às seguintes avaliações: comprimento, diâmetro, espessura de casca, massa fresca, massa de casca e polpa, teor de umidade, firmeza da casca, sólidos solúveis, pH, acidez titulável, açúcares e fibra bruta, cromaticidade, ângulo hue e luminosidade da casca e da polpa, e o teor de nutrientes. Para os dados obtidos, foram determinados a média, o valor mínimo e máximo, desvio-padrão e o coeficiente de variação. A fruta apresentou valores elevados de conteúdo de água, teor de fibras e dos nutrientes nitrogênio, potássio, cálcio, ferro, manganês e zinco. Quanto ao teor de sólidos solúveis, a média observada foi de 13,14° Brix, e para acidez titulável,0,29 mg de ác. málico 100-1 mL de suco. Verificaram-se para os açúcares valores de 5,56; 8,79 e 3,07 %, respectivamente, para os açúcares redutores, totais e não redutores. Quanto à coloração, os frutos apresentaram valores maiores para luminosidade e cromaticidade da casca e ângulo Hue da polpa.

A Agricultura de Precisão (AP) permite a utilização de diferentes ferramentas na obtenção de informações, e estas otimizam a tomada de decisão por parte do produtor, impactando positivamente na receita final. O objetivo do trabalho foi verificar o comportamento das variáveis produção (PROD), volume de copa (VC) e diâmetro de caule (DC) da variedade Maxi Gala com a utilização da técnica da cokrigagem. O experimento foi conduzido em uma área de 0,90 hectare de produção comercial da variedade Maxi Gala, na Fazenda São Paulino, da empresa RASIP, em Vacaria-RS, apresentando como coordenadas geográficas 28º31’17” de latitude sul e 50º49’17” de longitude oeste, durante as safras de 2010/2011 e 2011/2012. Coletaram-se 75 amostras para cada variável, em uma malha de 12 m na entrelinha e 10 m na linha. As variáveis avaliadas foram produção por planta , volume de copa e diâmetro de caule. Foram feitas a análise estatística descritiva dos dados e a análise espacial através dos semivariogramas. De posse dos modelos ajustados, realizou-se a interpolação pelo método da krigagem. Após, foi realizada a correlação simples dos parâmetros e elaborado os semivariogramas cruzados para interpolação, pela técnica da cokrigagem. Os parâmetros PROD versus DCapresentaram média correlação na variedade Maxi Gala, na safra de 2011. Nas safras de 2011 e 2012, os parâmetros VC versus DC também apresentaram média correlação. A técnica da cokrigagem pode ser uma ferramenta daAP a ser utilizada pela cultura da macieira no levantamento de informações.Verificou-se que houve resposta e redução na coleta de amostras das variáveis mais difíceis; na safra de 2011, reduziu-se a coleta de 15 amostras da PROD, e na safra de 2012, reduziu-se a coleta de 20 amostras do VC.

This work describes the use of clinoptilolite for removal of ammonium ions present in waters produced at the Campos' Basin. Samples were previously treated in order to remove organic compounds and metals. Experiments were run in fixed- and fluidized-bed systems, at room temperature. The fluidized-bed systems did not remove efficiently the ammonium ion. The best operational conditions were obtained with clinoptilolite particle size in the range 0.30-0.50 mm, under ascendant flow (3 mL min-1), in a fixed-bed system. The best zeolite performance was found when it was pretreated with 0.5 mol L-1 NaOH. Na+ was the most important interfering ion due to its high concentration in the water. Clinoptilolite lost partially its capacity to retain ammonium ions after several regeneration cycles with NaOH.

Desulphurization process by adsorption was studied employing a commercial diesel dooped with 1000 mg/L of benzothiophene and dibenzothiophene. The adsorbents materials employed were three types of activated alumina (acid, basic and neutral). For comparison, adsorption process was made also using oxidized diesel sample. The results showed that the adsorbents were selective for sulphur compounds removal from fuels. The contact time have influence in adsorption process achieving 80% of removal for not oxidized dibenzothiophene. The three studied alumina types showed similar behavior and a greater selective in dibenzothiophene adsorption than benzothiophene. Dibenzothiophene removal is more effective in samples not oxidized, whereas the benzothiophene was almost totally removed in oxidized sample.

Ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) is produced by commercial processes to a purity of up to 96%. In recent years, several companies have started to produce ETBE, increasing the demand for standards with higher grades of purity in the area of production control and final product certification. The present work involved the development of a purification protocol for obtaining high purity ETBE from the commercial product used in the formulation of automotive gasolines, using a spinning band distillation column. The ETBE thus produced showed a purity of over 99.5%, its main contaminant being its isomer, ethyl-sec-butyl ether (ESBE).

Emission factors of natural processes and anthropogenic activities were used to estimate nutrients and metal loads for the lower Macaé river basin, which hosts the operational base for the offshore oil and gas exploration in the Campos Basin. The estimates indicated that emissions from anthropogenic activities are higher than natural emissions. Major contributing drivers include husbandry and urbanization, whose effluents receive no treatment. The increasing offshore oil exploration along the Brazilian littoral has resulted in rapid urbanization and, therefore might increase the inshore emission of anthropogenic chemicals in cases where effective residue control measures are not implemented in fluvial basins of the region.

Omega-3 enriched partial acylglycerols are beneficial for human health. The aim of this study was to obtain monoacylglycerols (MAG) and diacylglycerols (DAG) by means of glycerolysis of fish oil catalyzed by a lipase from Rhizomucor miehei in the presence of food grade surfactants (Tween 65, 80 or 85). Glycerolysis was successful in the reaction media for all the tested surfactants, showing their potential for use as additives in such a system. The best results, however, were obtained for the reaction medium in the absence of surfactant whose peroxide value was the lowest after glycerolysis.

A simple, portable and low-cost system for odor detection was developed using a single MOS commercial sensor and a microcontroller. The temperature modulation technique was implemented applying a DC signal pulse to the sensor heater by a bipolar transistor. Two odorant profiles, ethanol and acetic acid vapors, were obtained and distinguished based on their amplitude versus time responses. Response for acetic acid was not reported by the sensor manufacturer. An ethanol vapor calibration curve was also obtained. Experimental data showed a potential behavior according to the theoretical equation of the MOS sensors. Values of logK=0.457 and α=-0.213 for a 95% confidence level were obtained.

Brazilian biodiversity is a colossal source of secondary metabolites with remarkable structural features, which are valuable in further biodiscovery studies. In order to fully understand the relations and interactions of a living system with its surroundings, efforts in natural product chemistry are directed toward the challenge of detecting and identifying all the molecular components present in complex samples. It is plausible that this endeavor was born out of recent technological sophistication in secondary metabolite identification with sensitive spectroscopic instruments (MS and NMR) and higher resolving power of chromatographic systems, which allow a decrease in the amount of required sample and time to acquire data. Nevertheless, the escalation of data acquired in these analyses must be sorted with statistical and multi-way tools in order to select key information. Chromatography is also of paramount importance, more so when selected compounds need to be isolated for further investigation. However, in the course of pursuing a "greener" environment, new policies, with an aim to decrease the use of energy and solvents, are being developed and incorporated into analytical methods. Metabolomics could be an effective tool to answer questions on how living organisms in our huge biodiversity work and interact with their surroundings while also being strategic to the development of high value bio-derived products, such as phytotherapeutics and nutraceuticals. The incorporation of proper phytotherapeutics in the so-called Brazilian Unified Health System is considered an important factor for the urgent improvement and expansion of the Brazilian national health system. Furthermore, this approach could have a positive impact on the international interest toward scientific research developed in Brazil as well as the development of high value bio-derived products, which appear as an interesting economic opportunity in national and global markets. Thus, this study attempts to highlight the recent advances in analytical tools used in detection of secondary metabolites, which can be useful as bioproducts. It also emphasizes the potential avenues to be explored in Brazilian biodiversity, known for its rich chemical diversity.
