A intrusão alcalina de Morro Preto, localizada ao norte da cidade de Piranhas (GO), corresponde a um corpo irregular a subcircular com aproximados 3,34 km2 alojado em gnaisses atribuídos ao Arco Magmático de Goiás. É constituída principalmente por carbonatitos e lamprófiros com graus variados de laterização e silicificação, além de silexitos e, em menor expressão, por sienito ferruginizado e basalto alcalino. Quimicamente mostram baixas concentrações em Cs, K, Na, Rb e altas concentrações em elementos como TR, Nb, Ba, Th e U. Isto aparenta resultar de processos de laterização/silicificação e da formação de fases minerais raras (ou neoformação de fases minerais), como fosfatos com alta concentração de TR e Th, oxi-hidróxidos de Fe, Ba, Mn, e oxi e/ou silico-fosfatos de ETR, Nb, Ta, dentre outros, e a formação de barita. A presença de rochas carbonatíticas com alto P2O5 e o enriquecimento acentuado em TR sugere a possibilidade de mineralizações destes componentes, similar às observadas em outros complexos alcalinos de Goiás e de Minas Gerais, como Catalão e Araxá. A distribuição de elementos menores, traços e TR mostram que as rochas são produtos de alteração de rochas ígneas alcalinas como carbonatitos, lamprófiros e basaltos alcalinos, rochas já enriquecidas em elementos como Th, U, TR (principalmente em ETRL), Nb e Ta. Os teores anormalmente altos são resultado do processo de enriquecimento supérgeno (processos de intemperismo como silicificação e laterização) e/ou alteração hidrotermal com baixa temperatura.

Worldwide environmental degradation is an undesirable byproduct resulting from the increasing demand for natural resources. Water sources are suffering intense contamination since they usually receive a huge amount of domestic and industrial effluents - which are mostly wasted without proper treatment - inserting a large number of pollutants in the environment, heavy metals included. Mercury holds great toxicological importance because, under some physicochemical conditions in a water environment, Hg (II) ion turns into methylated compounds stemming from this element, such as methylmercury CH3Hg, which is highly toxic for the aquatic community in which bioaccumulation occurs. Nowadays passive sampling techniques are being developed to enable the analytical procedures which are applied in environmental monitoring. Diffusive gradients in thin-films technique (DGT) has been proven an interesting tool for the determination of labile metal species due to its in situ application. The DGT technique consists of a piston-like device on which the following series of agents is disposed: a binding agent (conventionally Chelex 100 resin), a diffusive agent, usually a polyacrylamide gel, and a membrane filter. Nevertheless, the agents conventinally used for this technique don't usually show satisfactory results in mercury sampling. The main goal of this study was to evaluate the phosphate-treated cellulose membrane (Whatman P 81), an alternative material, as binding agent in the DGT to determine labile mercury fractions in aquatic systems. In this context, we conducted a study of the behavior of this material in relation with system variables, pH and ionic strength. Afterwards we performed immersions of the DGT devices in real and enriched samples and in situ aiming the determination of mercury

To verify the levels of concentration of some heavy metals in fishes from Sorocaba river (São Paulo, Brazil) and evaluate if this contamination offers health risks to the fishermen, 63 samples of fishes collected from four points along the river were studied for cadmium, lead, chromium, nickel and mercury, with emphasis in this last, since it is the most toxic and most probable as a fish contaminant. Analyzing muscle samples by cold vapor atomic absorption spectrometry it was shown that the fishes are not contaminated. None of the five metals studied were present in prohibitive level and the fishes could be judged secure for human consume. It was also analyzed data from four years of cadmium, lead, chromium, nickel and mercury monitoring made by CETESB, from 1997 to 2000, in water from the main rivers of the State of São Paulo. The study pointed out that the majority of the monitored rivers still present contamination by those metals in a level that requires an improvement of the pollution control actions.

O tratamento ortodôntico de pacientes periodontalmente comprometidos requer abordagem interdisciplinar que envolva diferentes especialidades odontológicas para que sejam obtidos resultados estéticos e funcionais satisfatórios. Normalmente, pacientes adultos com problemas periodontais apresentam migração dentária, erupção patológica e diastemas. Essas alterações de posição, geralmente, são o resultado da falta de equilíbrio entre o suporte periodontal e as forças oclusais que estão atuando nos dentes durante a mastigação e movimentos funcionais.

This work presents an efficient method for the preparation of magnetic nanoparticles modified with molecularly imprinted polymers (Mag-MIP) through core-shell method for the determination of biotin in milk food samples. The functional monomer acrylic acid was selected from molecular modeling, EGDMA was used as cross-linking monomer and AIBN as radical initiator. The Mag-MIP and Mag-NIP were characterized by FTIR, magnetic hysteresis, XRD, SEM and N2-sorption measurements. The capacity of Mag-MIP for biotin adsorption, its kinetics and selectivity were studied in detail. The adsorption data was well described by Freundlich isotherm model with adsorption equilibrium constant (KF) of 1.46 mL g(-1). The selectivity experiments revealed that prepared Mag-MIP had higher selectivity toward biotin compared to other molecules with different chemical structure. The material was successfully applied for the determination of biotin in diverse milk samples using HPLC for quantification of the analyte, obtaining the mean value of 87.4% recovery.

The activation of aluminum surface has the most various purposes as for example the search for the surface activation mechanism and the corrosion products by mercury ions. The objective of this work is to study the reactivity of the surface of aluminum metal when activated by mercury ions (Hg2+), with the consequent formation of an Al-Hg amalgam. Results demonstrate that the kinetics of the reaction, by measuring the mass change with time of the corrosion product formed between Al and Hg, and analysis by infrared spectroscopy (IR) that the product of the reaction between the amalgam, located on the surface, and the atmospheric oxygen is Al2O3 (aluminum hydroxide). The results also indicate that the kinetics of the reaction between the amalgam (Hg-Al) and atmospheric oxygen is of first order and reach a region where there is no more formation of product
