O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito do elicitor ácido salicílico (AS) aplicado em póscolheita de amora-preta sobre a conservação e a indução de resistência. Foram colhidas amoras da cultivar Tupy selecionadas e submetidas aotratamento em diferentes concentrações de AS (0,5; 1,0; 1,5 e 2,0 mM) e a testemunha (água destilada).Utilizou-se do delineamento experimental inteiramente casualizado, com quatro repetições de 30 frutos por unidade experimental. Após 144 horas de armazenamento, na temperatura de 8°C, avaliaram-se a perda de biomassa fresca, os teores de sólidos solúveis totais (SST), a acidez total titulável (ATT ) e de ácido ascórbico, bem como a incidência de podridões. Nos intervalos de 24; 48; 96 e 144 horas, retiraram-se amostras de frutos para determinação de proteínas totais, antocianinas, flavonoides e atividade das enzimas fenilalanina amônia-liase (FAL), quitinases e ß-1,3-glucanase. Houve aumento do teor de proteínas e ativação da ß-1,3-glucanase com a aplicação de AS, demonstrando haver indução de resistência nos frutos pela aplicação de AS. Os teores de antocianinas e flavonoides, bem como a atividade da FAL, tiveram alterações no decorrer do experimento, em função da aplicação de AS, demonstrando haver ativação da rota dos fenilpropanoides para síntese de metabólitos secundários. Os tratamentos de AS não afetaram os parâmetros de perda de biomassa fresca, AT , SST, incidência de podridões, ácido ascórbico e atividade de quitinase.

RESUMO O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da aplicação de doses únicas e fracionadas de ácido giberélico nas trocas gasosas e fotossíntese e na qualidade de cachos da uva cv. Sweet Celebration, no Submédio São Francisco. O delineamento experimental foi o em blocos ao acaso, com 10 tratamentos (testemunha; uma, duas ou três aplicações de 10 mg.L-1; uma, duas ou três aplicações de 15 mg.L-1; uma única aplicação de 20 mg.L-1, de 30 mg.L-1ou de 45 mg.L-1), com quatro repetições, e parcelas constituídas por três plantas. O ácido giberélico, aplicado na fase de bagas com 8 mm, aumentou a massa e as dimensões das uvas, sem influenciar no teor de sólidos solúveis e na acidez titulável. Contudo, maiores massa (9,41 g), comprimento (26,8 mm) e volume (8,12 cm3) de baga foram decorrentes de três aplicações de 10 mg.L-1, resultando em incrementos de, respectivamente, 59%, 23% e 42,5%,quandocomparado à testemunha. As três aplicações de ácido giberélico, nas diferentes fases de desenvolvimento dos cachos, favoreceram a atividade fotossintética e a qualidade do cacho e das bagas.

RESUMO O suco de uva ‘Isabel’ apresenta deficiência de cor e uma alternativa é o uso de ácido abscísico para aumentar a coloração. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a aceitação do suco integral de uva ‘Isabel’ tratada com ácido abscísico (S-ABA) em diferentes concentrações e épocas, por meio da análise sensorial, obtido em duas safras consecutivas (2011 e 2012). O delineamento experimental utilizado foi em blocos completos casualizados, com quatro repetições e cinco tratamentos: Testemunha; S-ABA 200 mg L-1aplicado sete dias após o início da maturação (DAIM); S-ABA 400 mg L-1 aplicado aos sete DAIM; S-ABA 200 mg L-1 aplicado aos sete DAIM + 200 mg L-1 aplicado aos 15 dias após a primeira aplicação (DAPA); e S-ABA 400 mg L-1 aplicado aos sete DAIM + 400 mg L-1, aplicado aos 15 DAPA. Os sucos integrais dos tratamentos foram obtidos pelo processo ‘Welch’, em panela extratora por arraste de vapor. Para a avaliação sensorial, contou-se com 70 julgadores não treinados, que avaliaram os atributos: coloração, aroma, sabor, corpo e aceitação global, empregando-se uma escala hedônica de nove pontos. Verificou-se que todos os sucos integrais de uva ‘Isabel’ tratada com S-ABA apresentaram maior aceitação pelos julgadores quanto aos atributos sensoriais avaliados, sendo a concentração de 400 mg L-1 em uma única aplicação, aos sete DAIM, suficiente para propiciar esses resultados.

In this paper is presented electrochemical evidences of the influence of the light on the electrochemical behavior of nickel electrode in diluted sulfuric acid. The current densities related with the electrooxidation of the metal decreases when the electrode is under illumination. The corrosion potential, Ecorr , shift to a more positive value in this condition. This effect was observed with polychromatic light and with different wavelength glass filters such as 700 nm and 520 nm. It was observed that increasing the temperature of the solution, the current densities related with cathodic and anodic processes, increases instead of decreases. The activation energy related with the electrooxidation of the electrode was higher under illumination than in the dark. It is suggested that this behavior may be related or with a photo-inhibition effect either with dessorption of adsorbed water involved in the electrooxidation mechanism.

A flow system procedure for spectrophotometric determination of ascorbic acid in drugs based on [Fe3+(SCN-)n]+3-n complex decomposition by reduction is described. The flow network was constituted by a set of three-way solenoid valves, controlled by a microcomputer running a software wrote in QuickBasic 4.5 language. The feasibility of the procedure was ascertained by determining ascorbic acid in drug samples with mass ranging from 0.0018 up to 0.0180 g. The results showed an agreement of about 7% when compared with recommended method. Other profitable features such as a standard deviation of 1.5% (n = 7) and a throughput of 120 determinations per hour was also achieved.

Phytochemical investigation of the leaves and branches of a specimen of Ouratea semiserrata led to the isolation and characterization of ent-16alpha,17-dihydroxykauran-19-oic acid, along with other natural products. This diterpenoid and its derivatives were used to unambiguous ¹H and 13C chemical shifts assignments and to indicate some mistake data described in the literature as consequence mainly of the stereochemicals of the chiral carbons C-4 and C-16. The HRMS spectra were also analysed.

It is commonly acknowledged that the earliest recipe to prepare mineral acids dates from the XIIIth century, since it can be found in a text attributed to Geber. This paper intends to discuss this belief, taking into account recent studies on the Geberian corpus and also considering some ancient references to saltpeter.

Despite the importance of the 4,4'-dithiodipyridine as an electrode modifier on the protein electrochemical studies and as a remarkable bridged-ligand on conducting electronic density in binuclear mixed valence complexes, there is no data available in the literature concerning acid-base behavior of this compound. Aiming to afford such information we undertook the ionization equilibrium study of this ligand. Although two acid species, DTDPH+ and DTDPH2+ have been detected in solution, only the diacid-form was possible to be isolated as a perclorate salt DTDPH2(ClO4)2. The ionization constants for the two step equilibrium processes (pKa1=2.70 and pKa2=4.80) were determined by using the spectrophotometric technique and aqueous solutions of CF3COONa, mu=0,1 mol.L-1 .

In this contribution a few new gold(I)phosphine complexes, [2-(PPh2)C6H4CO 2H]AuX (where X = Cl, SCN, Br3) and a similar gold(III) derivative [{2-(PPh2)C6H4CO 2H}AuIII Cl (C6H4CH2NMe2 )]Cl have been synthesised and characterised. The phosphine, 2-(diphenylphosphino)benzoic acid, has been employed for the first time in gold chemistry. This ligand is potentially bidentate through bonding of the phosphine and carboxylate groups. The X-ray structure of the complex chloro[2-(diphenylphosphino) benzoic acid]gold(I) has been elucidated and the bond lengths encountered show great similarity to those of chloro(triphenylphosphine)gold(I). [2-(PPh2)C6H4CO 2H]AuCl crystallises in the space group P2(1)/c with a = 9.113(2) Å, b = 10.925(2) Å, c = 23.069(4) Å, beta = 99.95º(3), V = 2299 ų, Z = 4 and R = 0.091. Biological tests for anti-fungal and anti-bacterial activity demostrate that [2-(PPh2)C6H4CO 2H]AuCl exhibits broad spectrum activity against a range of organisms.

Organosolv and kraft lignins were treated with ozone both in basic and acid media and the reaction was studied kinetically. In contrast to reported studies, ozone was more efective in basic medium. Kraft lignin was degraded faster than organosolv lignin in both media but in the basic medium the rate of reaction was very much faster than in the acid one: for kraft lignin, the observed degradation was 93% for 2 min of reaction in the basic medium and 56% for 10 min of reaction in the acid medium; for organosolv lignin, 47% and 25%, respectively, in the same times. Higher phenolic hydroxyl groups contents increase the reaction rate.

The herbicides are being used in huge quantities for various porpouses. Once the herbicide finds its way into the environment, a major part of it comes in contact with soil. Humic substances are major organic constituents of soil. These substances may interact with herbicides in different modes and adsorption is probably the most important one. Adsorption will control the quantity of herbicide in the soil solution, and determines its persistence, leaching, mobility and bioavailability. In this work we studied the interaction between the herbicide 2,4D and soil in the presence and absence of organic matter. The methodology utilized for the determination of 2,4D was gas chromatography with eletron capture detector. The behavior of 2,4D was evaluated through Freundlich isotherms. It was verified that the herbicide 2,4D has a large adsorption in the humic acid .

Acid base properties of mixed species of the microalgae Spirulina were studied by potentiometric titration in medium of 0.01 and 0.10 mols L-1 NaNO3 at 25.0±0.10 C using modified Gran functions or nonlinear regression techniques for data fitting. The discrete site distribution model was used, permitting the characterization of five classes of ionizable sites in both ionic media. This fact suggests that the chemical heterogeneity of the ionizable sites on the cell surface plays a major role on the acid-base properties of the suspension in comparison to electrostatic effects due to charge-charge interactions. The total of ionizable sites were 1.75±0.10 and 1.86±0.20 mmolsg-1 in ionic media of 0.01 and 0.10 mols L-1 NaNO3, respectively. A major contribution of carboxylic groups was observed with an average 34 and 22% of ionizable sites being titrated with conditional pcKa of 4.0 and 5.4, respectively. The remaining 44% of ionizable sites were divided in three classes with averaged conditional pcKa of 6.9, 8.7 and 10.12, which may be assigned respectively to imidazolic, aminic, and phenolic functionalities.
