Diante do conflito do mundo do trabalho provocado pelas mudanças tecnológicas em que fronteiras profissionais desaparecem, acredita-se ser de fundamental importância pesquisas subsidiem o desenvolvimento de novas trajetórias da formação e as demandas de contexto. Relata-se uma investigação sobre a atuação profissional e a contribuição de egressos da Pós-Graduação do Instituto de Ciência da Informação (UFBA-POSICI) para o campo científico da área, que defenderam suas dissertações no período de 1998-2006, apresentando indicadores que permitiram analisar tendências sobre o desempenho dos cursos, dos próprios titulados e do seu mercado profissional. Percebeu-se, por meio dos dados coletados e analisados, que diferentes questões puderam ser visualizadas no tocante à atuação profissional, à contribuição do campo científico da CI e quanto à importância dos cursos de pós-graduação para os processos de inovação do conhecimento da sociedade.

Foram avaliados os efeitos de três processos de vinificação sobre a composição química e a qualidade do vinho Cabernet Franc, nas safras de 1987 a 1990. As vinificações foram realizadas em escala industrial, pelos processos clássico, de termovinificação e de maceração carbônica. Avaliaram- se teor alcoólico, acidez total, açúcares redutores, cinzas, extrato seco, compostos fenólicos e voláteis e elementos minerais. Procedeu-se, também, à análise sensorial dos vinhos. Os resultados foram submetidos à análise de componentes principais (ACP) e à análise de variância, sendo que os três primeiros eixos explicaram 68,2% da variação total. Através da ACP, foi possível separar os vinhos de maceração carbônica dos outros dois processos de vinificação. As variáveis que apresentaram maior efeito na variação foram os álcoois superiores, os cátions e os compostos fenólicos. A avaliação sensorial mostrou que a maceração carbônica originou vinhos leves e com menor intensidade de cor, e a termovinificação e a vinificação clássica originaram vinhos com mais corpo, melhor qualidade e equilíbrio gustativo e maior tipicidade varietal.

OBJETIVO: O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar processos inflamatórios na articulação temporomandibular empregando leucócitos autólogos marcados com tecnécio-99m hexametilpropilenoaminooxima (99mTc-HMPAO). MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: Foi utilizado um modelo experimental de indução de artrite na articulação temporomandibular de dez coelhos machos da raça Nova Zelândia, por meio da injeção intra-articular de ovalbumina na articulação temporomandibular esquerda de cada animal. Para controle, na articulação contralateral foi injetada solução salina. Após a marcação dos leucócitos com 99mTc-HMPAO e injeção endovenosa deste complexo nos coelhos, imagens cintilográficas foram obtidas. RESULTADOS: Observou-se captação aumentada dos 99mTc-HMPAO-leucócitos na articulação temporomandibular esquerda quando comparada à direita. A análise estatística foi realizada utilizando-se o teste não-paramétrico de Wilcoxon. Houve diferença estatisticamente significativa dos valores das contagens por minuto de radioatividade, relativos à articulação inflamada quando comparados aos valores obtidos na articulação contralateral (p = 0,0073). CONCLUSÃO: O método empregando leucócitos autólogos marcados com 99mTc-HMPAO é capaz de identificar focos inflamatórios de forma precoce e precisa, o que poderá contribuir na conduta terapêutica dos pacientes, antes que alterações estruturais sejam instaladas.

The plasma etching of semiconductor surfaces with fluorine-containing compounds has technological interest. Presently, considerable effort is being devoted to understand the chemistry involved. In this work, a numerical modeling analysis of the gas-phase decomposition of CF4/O2 mixtures, in the presence of silicon, was performed. The relative importance of individual processes was determined as well as the effect of the parameters' uncertainties. The results were compared with experimental data. The main etching agent in the system is the fluorine atom. The concentration of the main species, SiF4, CO, CO2 and COF2 depend on the composition of the mixture.

In this work, a numerical modeling analysis of the gas-phase decomposition of SF6 / O2 mixtures, in the presence of silicon, was performed. The relative importance of individual processes and the effect of the parameters' uncertainties were determined. The model was compared with experimental data for the plasma etching of silicon and with the calculated results for the CF4 / O2 system. In both systems the main etching agent is the fluorine atom and the concentration of the major species depends on the composition of the mixture. The etching rate is greater for SF6 / O2.

Some general features about the role of Science and Technology in the modern western civilizations are discussed, emphasizing those related to Chemistry. The discussion is centered on the social regulation of technological and scientific institutions and on the way this regulation takes place in response to social demands. Finally, some new trends are presented about the Brazilian chemistry courses and how the local educational authorities intend to modernize them.

The concepts of dissipation and feedback are contained in the behavior of many natural dynamical systems. They have been used to predict the evolution of populations leading to the formulation of the quadratic logistic equation (QLE). More recently, the QLE has been used to provide a better understanding of physicochemical systems with promising results. Many physical, chemical and biological dynamic phenomena can be understood on the basis of the QLE and this work describes the main aspects of this equation and some recent applications, with emphasis on electrochemical systems. Also, it is illustrated the concept of potential energy as a convenient way of describing the stability of the fixed points of the QLE.

The implementation of a quality assurance program in chemical analytical laboratories, that can aid in demonstrate the quality of their results, is an issue of great concern. As a consequence, it is mandatory to give an estimate of the confidence that can be placed on the obtained results. An useful measure of this confidence is the measurement uncertainty and, nowadays, a result without the corresponding uncertainty statement cannot be considered reliable. This paper presents a summary of the most important mechanisms for the evaluation and reporting of the measurement uncertainty. In implementing these principles, it is described the measurement uncertainty estimation associated with the preparation of a uranium elemental reference solution at 2.4 mg.kg-1 from the corresponding certified reference material (in this example at 1003 mg.kg-1).

Silica gel is widely used as adsorbent for isolating and purifying natural compounds. Intensive use and high cost make this process expensive and generate solid residues contaminated with many different organic compounds. In the present work a simple method for recycling silica was investigated, by using Advanced Oxidative Processes. Silica gel was treated with H2O2/solar light and compared with a sample treated by conventional methods (high temperature and oxidation with KMnO4). High temperature treatment changes the structure of the silica and, consequently, the separation efficiency. Oxidation by using KMnO4 requires multiple steps and produces residues, including manganese and oxalic acid. The method using H2O2/solar light to recuperate silica gel does not modify its separation efficiency and is less expensive than the traditional methods. Additionally, HPLC and GC-MS analysis indicate that H2O2/solar light eliminates all residues of the silica gel.

After decades of polluting actions the environment manifests serious and global consequences. The contamination of soils and groundwater by organic compounds is a widespread problem mainly on account of contamination by leakage from underground storage tanks, which often results in the release of gasoline or other chemicals. The main problem about groundwater contamination is due to the toxicity of water-soluble components such as benzene, toluene and xylene (BTX). In the present work a study about classical and modern methods for remediation of BTX is reported.

A large variety of organic and inorganic compounds may be found in wastewater which can contribute to environmental contamination. Oxidation processes with ozone (O3; O3/UV; O3/H2O2; O3/TiO2; O3/Mn+2) and the use of ozone in the pre- or post-treatment of wastewater combined with biological processes has been extensively studied for the treatment of effluents. The aim of this work was to evaluate the potential of the ozonation process in the treatment of several industrial wastewaters, namely effluents from paper mills, and textile, whey (dairy industry), pharmaceutic sand pesticides plants.
