Activities related to nuclear industry, production of phosphoric acid and hospitals have generated considerable volumes of radioactive waste containing uranyl ions. Banana pith was characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and was investigated as a biosorbent for uranyl ions from nitric solutions by batch experiments. Influences of adsorbent size, kinetics and equilibrium adsorption were studied. The biosorption of the uranyl ions followed pseudo-second-order kinetics. The adsorption isotherm data were closely fitted to the Freundlich equation.

Cellulose acetate polymeric membranes had been prepared by a procedure of two steps, combining the method of phase inversion and the technique of hydrolysis-deposition. The first step was the preparation of the membrane, and together was organomodified with tetraethylortosilicate and 3-aminopropyltrietoxysilane. Parameters that exert influence in the complexation of the metallic ion, as pH, time of complexation, metal concentration, had been studied in laboratory using tests of metal removal. The membranes had presented resistance mechanics and reactivity to cations, being able to be an alternative for the removal, daily pay-concentration or in the study of the lability of metals complexed.

For this study, magnetic composite of zeolite-magnetite was prepared by mixing magnetite nanoparticles suspension with synthetic zeolite. The nanoparticles in suspension were synthesized by precipitating iron ions in a NaOH solution. The zeolite was synthesized from coal fly ash by alkaline hydrothermal treatment. The magnetic composite was characterized by XDR, SEM, magnetization measurements, IR, and BET surface area. Batch tests were carried out to investigate the adsorption of metal ions of Zn2+, Cd2+ and Pb2+ from aqueous solution onto magnetic composite. Adsorption isotherms were analyzed using Freundlich and Langmuir equations. The adsorption equilibrium data fitted well to the Langmuir equation with maximum adsorption capacities in the range of 28.5-127 mg g-1.

The potential use of rice husk as biosorbent to remove Cu2+, Al3+, Ni2+ and Zn2+ ions from aqueous solutions was investigated under both noncompetitive and competitive conditions. The biosorbent was used in the form of particles with size smaller than 0.5 μm and in the concentration of 500 mg L-1 (dry weight). The experiments were performed using batch adsorption technique for concentrations of 10, 30 and 70 mg L-1 of metal ions at pH 4.0 and 5.0. The chemical speciation of metals in the experimental conditions used in this work was predicted by the software Visual MINTEQ 2.6.

Speciation of metals in a synthetic freshwater was comparatively evaluated using Anodic Stripping Voltammetry, Diffusive Gradients in Thin Films and a Chemical Equilibrium Model. The labile fractions of Cu and Zn quantified by DGT were similar to the ones measured by ASV. The labile species of Cd and Pb could not be determined by both experimental methods due to the formation of inert complexes with organic ligands in the sample. Despite the differences among the methods, the speciation results obtained by the use of DGT and ASV agreed well with predictions made by the chemical equilibrium model.

[RE(czb)3(H2O)2] complexes (where RE = Eu3+, Tb3+, Gd3+; and czb = 4-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)benzoato) have been synthesized and characterized. The Gd3+ complex was used to determine the triplet state energy of the czb ligand. Photoluminescence measurements of the complexes have been carried out under UV excitation. The Tb3+ complex exhibited a strong green luminescence indicating an efficient antenna effect, whereas the Eu3+ complex showed low red luminescence and the Gd3+ complex a blue-green luminescence from the ligand. The luminescence lifetimes and quantum yields have also been measured for the evaluation of the spectroscopic behavior of the complexes.

This paper evaluates the adsorption capacity of zirconocene-based silica materials in the pre-concentration of antimicrobians (tetracycline, sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim) in aqueous medium. These materials were prepared by grafting the zirconocene onto silicas pre-treated at different temperatures. The retention capacity of these materials was evaluated by off line SPE and HPLC-UV and the proposed methodology was validated in ultrapure, tap and river water. The recovery for tetracycline was 72% (in the solid phase A) and, for sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim was 68 and 95% in the commercial C18, respectively. The target antimicrobians were not detected in the Arroio Dilúvio (Porto Alegre - RS).

Nine absorbents were prepared using a mixture of Amazonian kaolinite and MnO2 at three temperatures (600, 700 and 900 ºC) in order to retain Pb2+ ions contained in the battery solutions. The batch experiments carried out with the batteries used water for 3 h and the kinetic isotherm was fitted with the pseudo-second order Lagergren equation. Findings show that synthesized adsorbents AD4, AD5 and AD7 performed well in reducing the Pb2+ ion content from 0.36 to 0.00 mg g-1. The better performance for removing the Pb2+ ions occurred for adsorbents synthesized in the temperature range from 600 to 700 ºC.

The DGT technique allows one to measure quantitatively free and labile metal species in aquatic systems. Nevertheless, for this approach, knowledge is required of the diffusion coefficients of the analytes in a diffusive layer. In this study, the diffusion coefficients of Hg(II), As(III), Mn(II), Mg(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) were determined in agarose gel and those of Ba(II), Cd(II), Cu(II), Mg(II), Mn(II) e Zn(II) in cellulose acetate membranes. These materials presented good performance and the reported results can be used as a data base for further DGT studies.

Cyanate ion stability was studied in aqueous/ethanolic solutions, pH = 4.5 (CH3COOH/NaCH3COO), at different temperatures. Following the decay [(OCN)-] versus time, in the presence of excess C2H5OH, the rate constant for this reaction (k1) was calculated as (2.5 ± 0.3) x 10-4 s-1 at 25 ºC, for 0 < [C2H5OH] < 13.7 x 10-1 mol L-1. For [C2H5OH] > 2.0 mol L-1 a decrease in the numerical value of k1 was observed, reaching 5.2 x 10-5 s-1 when [CH3CH2OH] = 13.7 mol L-1. Variations in the kinetic parameter values ΔH1‡, ΔS1‡ and ΔG1‡ for the cyanate ion decay reaction were observed for solutions at different ethanol concentrations.

Chemical imprinting technology has been widely used as a valuable tool in selective recognition of a given target analyte (molecule or metal ion), yielding a notable advance in the development of new analytical protocols. Since their discovery, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have been extensively studied with excellent reviews published. However, studies involving ion imprinted polymers (IIPs), in which metal ions are recognized in the presence of closely related inorganic ions, remain scarce. Thus, this review involved a survey of different synthetic approaches for preparing ion imprinted adsorbents and their application for the development of solid phase extraction methods, metal ion sensors (electrodes and optodes) and selective membranes.

Difenoconazole residues in strawberry fruit cultivated in pots were estimated using the solid-liquid extraction with low temperature partition (SLE/LTP) method for sample preparation and gas chromatography with electron capture detection (GC/ECD) for analysis. The optimized method presented excellent recovery values from fortified samples and reproducibility (average recovery values ≥ 98%; CV values < 15%). Linearity of response was demonstrated (r = 0.995) with a detection limit of 9 µg kg-1. The method was successfully applied for the determination of difenoconazole residues in strawberries. Based on these results, the fungicide dissipates quickly, but the residual concentration increases after multiple applications.

Foi avaliada a influência da temperatura (5, 15, 25 e 35 °C), da duração do período de molhamento (0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48 e 72 h) e da concentração de inóculo (10¹, 10², 10(4), 10(6) e 10(8) esporos/ml) na incidência de podridões de pós-colheita em frutos de tomateiro (Lycopersicon esculentum) (cv. Santa Clara) causadas por Fusarium verticillioides, Geotrichum candidum e Rhizopus stolonifer. A temperatura influenciou significativamente (P=0,05) a incidência de podridões, ocorrendo maior incidência de lesões em frutos incubados a 25 °C. Não foi observado o desenvolvimento de podridão em frutos inoculados com F. verticillioides e incubados nas temperaturas de 5 e 35 °C, sendo nesta última verificada a menor incidência de podridões causadas por G. candidum e R. stolonifer. Nas temperaturas de 5, 15 e 25 °C, a incidência de podridões causadas por R. stolonifer variou entre 97,5 e 100%. A presença de água livre na superfície dos frutos de tomateiro foi desnecessária para a incidência de podridões causadas por F. verticillioides, G. candidum e R. stolonifer, embora os níveis de incidência tenham aumentado com o incremento no período de molhamento, exceto para R. stolonifer, que causou a incidência máxima de doença (100%), na ausência de molhamento. A incidência de podridões aumentou com o incremento na concentração de inóculo de 10¹ a 10(8) esporos/mL, atingindo o máximo (100%) na concentração de 10(4) esporos/ml para F. verticillioides e R. stolonifer, enquanto o mesmo nível foi atingido por G. candidum com 10(8) esporos/ml.

O míldio causado por Pseudoperonospora cubensis se constitui em uma das mais importantes doenças do meloeiro (Cucumis melo) no Nordeste brasileiro, região que concentra mais de 80% da produção nacional de melão. Epidemias de míldio são referidas, constantemente, causando severas perdas na produção de frutos. O efeito da doença no teor de sólidos solúveis totais (SST), importante fator de aferição qualitativa do fruto, foi determinado em meloeiro do tipo amarelo inodoro sob condições naturais. Intensidades variáveis da doença foram obtidas, variando-se o período de cultivo e a aplicação de fungicidas recomendados para o controle (tiofanato metílico + chlorotalonil, metalaxyl + mancozeb e oxicloreto de cobre). Os resultados revelaram que o aumento da severidade da doença resulta numa acentuada redução no teor de SST, proporcionando decréscimos de até 49%. Entre os parâmetros usados para se estimar os efeitos relacionados à doença, a área abaixo da curva de progresso da doença foi o mais eficiente, principalmente quando a pressão da doença aumentou.

Avaliou-se a severidade da mancha-aquosa em meloeiro (Cucumis melo) em diferentes intervalos de molhamento foliar (0, 6, 12, 24 e 48 h) e do início do período de molhamento foliar (0, 6, 12, 24 e 48 h após inoculação), e diferentes concentrações de inóculo de Acidovorax avenae subsp. citrulli (3,4 x 10¹ a 3,4 x 10(7) UFC.ml-1). Foram utilizados três isolados do patógeno e os híbridos de meloeiro tipo Amarelo, AF-646 e AF-682. As folhas das plantas com 20 dias foram pulverizadas com a suspensão bacteriana e mantidas em casa de vegetação, sendo determinados período de incubação, taxa de progresso da doença, índice de doença e área abaixo da curva de progresso da doença. As equações de regressão para as variáveis analisadas foram melhores ajustadas pelos modelos quadráticos ou logarítmicos. O período de incubação variou de 1,3 a 2,7 dias e foi maior nas plantas sem molhamento foliar. O índice de doença e a área abaixo da curva de progresso da doença aumentaram com a elevação da duração do molhamento foliar. Mesmo na ausência do molhamento foliar ocorreram sintomas da mancha-aquosa com índice de doença e área abaixo da curva de progresso da doença de 43,4% e 8,9, respectivamente. O início do período de molhamento foliar às 48 h elevou significativamente (P<0,05) o período de incubação e a taxa de progresso da doença em relação aos demais períodos. A taxa de progresso da doença, índice de doença e área abaixo da curva de progresso da doença aumentaram com o incremento da concentração de inóculo de A. avenae subsp. citrulli, atingindo os valores máximos de 4,4 unidades de infecção/dia, 74% e 19, respectivamente, na concentração 3,4 x 10(7) UFC.ml-1.
