A exploração de palmito no Brasil está deixando de ser uma atividade extrativista para tornar-se agrícola, devido ao plantio de palmeiras, como a pupunheira (Bactris gasipaes Kunth var. gasipaes Henderson). A podridão da base do estipe (PBE), causada por Phytophthora palmivora, vem destacando-se como uma importante doença, que poderá limitar o cultivo da pupunheira em várias regiões produtoras. Esta doença ocorre em plantas jovens e adultas. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a eficiência da aplicação preventiva e curativa de fosfitos sobre a incidência e a severidade da PBE em mudas de pupunheira, em casa de vegetação. Para tal, três experimentos foram conduzidos, conforme segue: I - Efeito preventivo e curativo de fosfitos, seguindo o esquema fatorial 6 x 2 (tipos de fosfitos x épocas de aplicação); II - Efeito da aplicação preventiva de fosfito de potássio, seguindo o esquema fatorial 6 x 4 (número de aplicações x épocas de avaliação); e III - Efeito preventivo do número de aplicações e dosagens de fosfitos de potássio, seguindo o esquema fatorial 3 x 2 (dosagens x número de aplicações). A severidade da doença foi avaliada aos 28 dias no experimento I e no experimento III, enquanto no experimento II foi avaliada aos 7; 14; 21 e 28 dias após a inoculação, baseada em escala descritiva, com nota de 0 a 4. Os tratamentos foram dispostos no delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com 10 repetições de uma muda cada. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de variância e, quando significativos, pelo teste F (p < 0,05), e as médias dos tratamentos foram comparadas pelo teste de Tukey, a 5% de probabilidade. Pelos resultados obtidos, pôde-se concluir que o fosfito de potássio proporcionou melhor controle entre os fosfitos testados, e quando aplicado de forma preventiva na dosagem de 2,5 mL.L-1 com 3 aplicações e na dosagem de 5,0 mL.L-1 com 2 ou 3 aplicações, reduziu significativamente a incidência e a severidade da PBE em mudas de pupunheira. Entretanto, quando aplicado de forma curativa, não teve efeito, independentemente da dosagem ou do número de aplicações. A melhor época de avaliação da severidade da PBE foi aos 21 dias após a inoculação da Phytopthora palmivora.

Foram otimizados os protocolos de micropropagação das cultivares de abacaxizeiro 'Vitória' e 'IAC Fantástico', bem como as respostas fotossintéticas e de crescimento destes genótipos à alteração do ambiente de cultivo in vitro. Para as duas cultivares, os tratamentos foram dispostos em DIC, com seis repetições e cinco plantas por repetição, em um esquema de parcelas subsubdivididas, constituídas de qualidade de luz (branca e vermelha), tipo de frasco de cultivo (fechado e ventilado) e concentração de sacarose no meio de cultivo (15 e 30 g L-1). A avaliação foi feita após 40 dias de cultivo in vitro. Nas condições deste estudo, não houve assimilação fotossintética do carbono. Essa não assimilação foi associada ao comprometimento bioquímico e sem comprometimento na eficiência fotoquímica. A presença da sacarose pode ser considerada o fator responsável pela não assimilação do CO2. Em comparação à cv. IAC Fantástico, a cv. Vitória apresentou maior crescimento devido à maior absorção de carbono via sacarose adicionada ao meio de cultivo.

O objetivo foi avaliar o efeito dos herbicidas diuron, ametryn e sulfentrazone, e da associação micorrízica na eficiência quântica do fotossistema II de mudas de abacaxizeiro 'Imperial'. Foi utilizado o esquema de parcela subdividida, tendo na parcela o fatorial 2 x 4, sendo dois tipos de mudas: inoculadas com P. indica e sem inoculação, e quatro doses de herbicidas: 0; 1,5; 3,0 e 6,0 L ha-1 para o ametryn, 0; 1,6; 3,2 e 6,4 L ha-1 para o diuron e 0; 0,4; 0,8 e 1,6 L ha-1 para o sulfentrazone, e na subparcela as épocas de avaliação, distribuídos no delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com três repetições. Os herbicidas foram aplicados ao substrato antes do plantio das mudas. A inoculação com o fungo P. indica foi feita no momento do plantio. A avaliação da eficiência quântica foi feita por meio da razão de fluorescência da clorofila a (Fv/Fm), determinada aos 60; 90 e 120 dias após o plantio das mudas, obtendo-se a fluorescência inicial, máxima, e variável. Os dados obtidos foram submetidos à análise de variância e regressão polinomial. O herbicida ametryn não comprometeu a eficiência do fotossistema II das mudas de abacaxizeiro inoculadas com o fungo P. indica. A inoculação com fungo P. indica aumentou a eficiência do fotossistema II das mudas. A aplicação dos herbicidas diuron e sulfentrazone em doses elevadas reduziu a eficiência do fotossistema II de mudas de abacaxizeiro 'Imperial' não inoculadas com o fungo P. indica.

Several authors in the 17th century used the atomic hypothesis to explain observable phenomena. This paper analyzes some ideas about chemical transformation proposed by the English physician Walter Charleton. In Physiologia Epicuro-Gassendo-Charltoniana (London, 1654), Charleton examined philosophical aspects of the atomic theory, and suggested that the best explanation for all natural phenomena would be only in terms of atoms and their motions. Sometimes, however, he had to attribute to the atoms some kind of "internal virtue", to explain more complex properties of the matter. His idea of "element", and the little use of experimentation and quantification, also limited the range of Charleton's theory.

A new approach for teaching in basic experimental organic chemistry is presented. Experimental work goes on parallel to theoretical lectures leading to an immediate application of theoretical concepts transmitted therein. One day/week is dedicated exclusively to the organic laboratory. Reactions are proposed as problems to be solved; the student has to deduce the structure of the product on the basis of his observations, the analytical data and his mechanistical knowledge. 70 different experiments, divided in 7 thematical chapters, are presented. All experiments require the analysis and discussion of 1H and 13C NMR, IR and UV spectra. Additional questions about each reaction have to be answered by the student in his written report. Laboratory safety is garanteed by the exclusion or substitution of hazardous and toxic reagents. Microscale preparations are adopted in most cases to lower the cost of materials and the amount of waste. Recycling of many reaction products as starting materials in other experiments reduces the need for commercial reagents and allows the execution of longer reaction sequences. Only unexpensive standard laboratory equipment and simple glassware are required. All experiments include instructions for the save treatment or disposal of chemical waste.

The adsorption of H and S2- species on Pd (100) has been studied with ab initio, density-functional calculations and electrochemical methods. A cluster of five Pd atoms with a frozen geometry described the surface. The computational calculations were performed through the GAUSSIAN94 program, and the basis functions adapted to a pseudo-potential obtained by using the Generator Coordinate Method adapted to the this program. Using the cyclic voltammetry technique through a Model 283 Potentiostat/Galvanostat E.G.&G-PAR obtained the electrochemical results. The calculated chemisorption geometry has a Pd-H distance of 1.55Å, and the potential energy surface was calculated using the Becke3P86//(GCM/DFT/SBK) methodology. The adsorption of S2- ions on Pd surface obtained both through comparison between the experimental and theoretical results, at MP2 level, suggest a S2- absorption into the metallic cluster. The produced Pd-(S2-) system was show to be very stable under the employed experimental conditions. The paper has shows the powerful aid of computational methods to interpret adsorption experimental data.

The fundaments of the modern Density Functional Theory (DFT), its basic theorems, principles and methodology are presented. This review also discuss important and widely used concepts in chemistry but that had not been precisely defined until the development of the DFT. These concepts were proposed and used from an empirical base, but now their precise definition are well established in the DFT formalism. Concepts such as chemical potential (electronegativity), hardness, softness and Fukui function are presented and their consequences to the understanding of chemical reactivity are discussed.

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.

Particles of porous silica or other solvent resistent inorganic oxides can be functionalized by aliphatic (e.g., C-8 or C-18) or other groups to give stationary phases for use in reversed phase HPLC. The functionalization can be done by bonding of individual groups to the surface of the support particles, by producing an organic polymeric film from pre-polymers, or by adsorbing/immobilizing pre-formed polymers on the surfaces. These three types of functionalization are reviewed.

The effects of 60Co ionizing radiations in doses of 0, 75, 100, 150, 200 and 250Gy on garlic, upon the alpha-tocopherol concentration were studied. The alpha-tocopherol contents were established by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), after direct hexane extraction from the garlic samples. The alpha-tocopherol was determined through normal-phase column, and mobile phase was composed by hexane: iso-propyl alcohol (99:01 v/v), with 2mL/min flow rate and fluorescence detector. It is statistically shown that an irradiation dose of up to 150 Gy does not affect the garlic alpha-tocopherol content.

In this paper a methodology for the computation of Raman scattering cross-sections and depolarization ratios within the Placzek Polarizability Theory is described. The polarizability gradients are derived from the values of the dynamic polarizabilities computed at the excitation frequencies using ab initio Linear Response Theory. A sample application of the computational program, at the HF, MP2 and CCSD levels of theory, is presented for H2O and NH3. The results show that high correlated levels of theory are needed to achieve good agreement with experimental data.

Synthetic dyes were determined by high performance liquid chromatography in 76 samples of regular jelly and diet jelly powders, of several flavors produced by seven different manufacturers. Three sample of each product, from different batches, were analyzed. The same qualitative composition was observed for products of the same flavor from different manufacturers, but the quantitative composition varied markedly from one manufacturer to the other. There were no or few significant differences between batches from a given manufacturer, demonstrating good quality control in the use of these additives by the food industry. None of the samples exceeded the limit stipulated by Brazilian legislation.

Rutheniumporphyrins, especially with several nitro groups in b-positions, were used in the cyclohexane oxidation in the presence of iodosylbenzene, hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite as oxygen donors, under mild conditions. The beta-polynitrated complexes were able to promote the catalytic cyclohexane oxidation. They show an exceptionally high catalytic efficiency and resistance to attack by strong oxidizing agents. The cyclohexane oxidation was monitored by gas chromatography and the results showed that the beta-polynitrated rutheniumporphyrins are better catalysts when compared to other complexes not beta-polynitrated. In all cases, the 2-phenylsubstituted complexes were more efficient than 4-phenylsubstituted complexes. The importance of the ortho effect to oxidation was shown.
