In the oil industry, the paraffination phenomenon is a major problem during oil production, displacement and treatment. Paraffin deposition in subsea flowlines, surface equipment, production string or even in the reservoir, can cause significant and increasing oil losses. To minimize paraffin precipitation, the application of magnetic field in the petroleum path has been suggested based on empiric studies. In this study, we assembled a labscale magnetic conditioner to determine the influence of magnetic field on the physical-chemical properties of two fluids : oil and a paraffin mixture. We observed that magnetic field reduce sample aparent viscosity due to crystal morphology alteration.

Rhynchophorol (6-Methyl-2-hepten-4-ol) is the major constituent of the aggregation pheromone of Rhynchophorus palmarum L. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), which is released by males of this species. The racemic mixture has been produced in one step-simplified preparation. The pheromone is placed into ampoules and furnished to coconut farmers. In the field, traps baited with Rhynchophorol and pieces of sugarcane attract both males and females, reducing the population of R. palmarum. The best conditions for field application are showed.

This work describes the chemical composition of the volatile oil of Hyptis marrubioides cultivated in field and greenhouse. The experimental design was completely randomized, with ten replications for each type of cultivation. The volatile oil was extracted by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC-MS. The highest content of volatile oil was found for plants grown in field. The highest percentage of the compounds present in oils was observed in samples grown in the field, such as germacra-4(15),5,10(14)-trien-1-α-ol (16.34%), β-caryophyllene (10.42%), γ-muurolene (12.83%) and trans-thujone (9.98%). However, some compounds were found only in plants grown in a greenhouse, such as cis-muurol-5-en-4α-ol (10.84%), α-cadinol (3.06%) and eudesma-4(15),7-dien-1β-ol (6.82%).

We describe herein the synthesis and characterization of the complexes KNiF3, [Ni(en)3]I2, [Ni(en)3]Cl2, [Ni(acac)2(H2O)2], [Ni(en)2(H2O)2]Cl2 and [Ni(NH3)6](BF4)2 (en = ethylenediamine, acac- = acetylacetonate) performed in the inorganic synthesis major course at the Chemistry Institute of UFRGS (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul). The compounds were characterized by infrared and electronic spectroscopy and the electrolytic conductivity was measured. The parameters 10Dq and B were obtained from the electronic spectra and the nefelauxetic and spectrochemical series were determined. The obtained spectrochemical series was F- < acac- < NH3 < en and the nefeulaxetic series was en < NH3 < acac- < F-.

Two methods using headspace solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography - mass spectrometry were developed for the determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and BTEX. Best results were obtained using DVB/CAR/PDMS fiber, with 10 min extraction at 25 °C and 0.15 min desorption at 260 °C (BTEX), and PDMS/DVB fiber, with 60 min extraction at 90 °C, 10% NaCl and 5 min desorption at 270 °C (PAH). LOD intervals were 3x10-2 - 5x10-2 µg L-1 (BTEX) and 1.6x10-3 - 1.4 µg L-1 (PAH). The methods were applied to forty-five groundwater samples from monitoring wells of gas stations and only benzene level exceeded the limit established by Brazilian regulations.

To choose among the variety of oleaginous plants for biodiesel production, the oil content of several matrices was determined through different low-field ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments with varied pulse sequences, namely single-pulse, spin-echo, CPMG, and CWFP. The experiments that involved the first three sequences showed high correlation with each other and with the solvent extraction method. The quality of the vegetable oils was also evaluated on the basis of the existing correlation between the T2 values of the oils and their properties, such as viscosity, iodine index, and cetane index. These analyses were performed using HCA and PCA chemometric tools. The results were sufficiently significant to allow separation of the oleaginous matrices according to their quality. Thus, the low-field ¹H NMR technique was confirmed as an important tool to aid in the selection of oleaginous matrices for biodiesel production.

Sample preparation is commonly considered a key step to achieve selective, sensitive, and reliable chemical analyses, particularly those involving complex matrices. Although the application of electric fields to improve the speed and efficiency of sample preparation methods has been proven, this approach is still considered to be state-of-the-art; hence, further development is necessary to improve future applications. This review describes the fundamentals, advances, applications, and perspectives of using electric fields to enhance sample preparation techniques such as liquid-liquid and solid-liquid extractions in conventional and microscale devices.

Procurou-se quantificar a produção de conídios por Pyrenophora chaetomioides sobre folhas mortas de aveia branca (Avena sativa), e relacionar essas observações com as condições de temperatura e precipitação ocorridas no período. Foram coletadas regularmente folhas mortas da superfície das parcelas experimentais, onde se realizou a contagem dos conídios. Os resultados mostraram que a quantidade de conídios produzidos diminuiu com o atraso na semeadura da cultura. Além disso, a produção de conídios nas folhas mortas foi maior na cultivar precoce do que nas cultivares semi-tardias. Também foi observada uma associação entre a precipitação acumulada no período anterior à coleta e a produção de conídios.

A mancha foliar e do grão da aveia (Avena sativa), denominada "helmintosporiose da aveia", causada pelo fungo Pyrenophora chaetomioides é uma doença de importância para o Brasil. Com o objetivo de identificar em que fase do desenvolvimento as cariopses de aveia branca apresentam-se mais suscetíveis à infecção por P. chaetomioides, foram conduzidos três experimentos de campo. Panículas de plantas de aveia foram expostas ao inóculo por períodos determinados de tempo desde a sua emergência. Através da utilização de sacos confeccionados com papel celofane, foram aplicados tratamentos que consistiam na proteção ou na exposição das panículas durante o desenvolvimento das cariopses. No final do ciclo, as panículas foram colhidas individualmente e a porcentagem de cariopses infetadas foi determinada através de plaqueamento em meio de cultura. As cariopses em formação, expostas ao inóculo durante os estágios de grão leitoso e massa mole, apresentaram as maiores incidências do patógeno. A temperatura e o nível de precipitação não influenciaram a porcentagem de cariopses infetadas pelo patógeno, no entanto, temperaturas altas, precipitação elevada e a ocorrência de outras moléstias, anteciparam a senescência das folhas basais, favorecendo a produção de inóculo pelo patógeno.

Este trabalho teve como objetivo estabelecer metodologias adequadas para o isolamento e inoculação de Septoria lactucae e avaliação de nove cultivares de alface (Lactuca sativa), Vitória-de-Santo-Antão, Uberlândia 10.000, Maioba, Elba, Aurélia, Black Seeded Simpson, Grand Rapids, Salad Bowl-Mimosa e Babá de Verão, quanto aos níveis de resistência à septoriose, em condições de casa de vegetação e campo. Os melhores resultados obtidos foram: a) para isolamento: transferência dos cirros de conídios diretamente para o meio de BDA com os antibióticos estreptomicina, cloranfenicol, ampicilina e rifampicilina; b) para inoculação: aspersão das plantas no estádio de seis a oito folhas com a suspensão de inóculo na concentração de 1 x 10(4)conídios/ml, e manutenção em câmara úmida por 48 h. Houve diferenças significativas entre as cultivares testadas em casa de vegetação e em campo. Tanto em casa de vegetação quanto em teste de campo as cultivares Maioba e Vitória de Santo Antão foram avaliadas como a mais susceptível e a mais resistente, respectivamente. Diante desses resultados, a metodologia de casa de vegetação pode ser considerada como altamente promissora para a avaliação rápida de grande número de variedades ou materiais genéticos, nos trabalhos de melhoramento de alface para a resistência à S. lactucae.
