Since the last decade, the combined use of chemometrics and molecular spectroscopic techniques has become a new alternative for direct drug determination, without the need of physical separation. Among the new methodologies developed, the application of PARAFAC in the decomposition of spectrofluorimetric data should be highlighted. The first objective of this article is to describe the theoretical basis of PARAFAC. For this purpose, a discussion about the order of chemometric methods used in multivariate calibration and the development of multi-dimensional methods is presented first. The other objective of this article is to divulge for the Brazilian chemical community the potential of the combination PARAFAC/spectrofluorimetry for the determination of drugs in complex biological matrices. For this purpose, two applications aiming at determining, respectively, doxorrubicine and salicylate in human plasma are presented.

A series of bovine serum albumin-immobilized supports have been prepared and used as restricted access media (RAM) columns. Restricted-access supports combine size-exclusion of proteins and other high-molar-mass matrix components with the simultaneous enrichment of low-molar mass analytes. These characteristics were chromatographically evaluated for the columns. The RAM-BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin) columns showed excellent performance for exclusion of human plasma protein with good retention capacity for a series of acidic, basic, and neutral drugs.

Adsorptive stripping voltammetry carried out in a homogeneous ternary solvent composed of N,N-dimethylformamide, water and ethanol, with alpha-benzoinoxime (alphaBO) as the complexing agent for Mo(VI) and a 0.5 mol L-1 acetic acid - sodium acetate buffer as supporting electrolyte was successfully used for the determination of molybdenum in polyvitamin-polymineral tablets. Tablet samples were analyzed and the results were compared with those obtained both by graphite furnace atomic absorption and by recovery tests, with good correlations, indicating that this may be considered as an alternative procedure for routine determination of Mo(VI) in pharmaceutical samples.

This work describes a systematic study for bovine liver sample preparation for Cd and Pb determination by solid sampling electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry. Samples were prepared using different procedures: (1) drying in a household microwave oven followed by drying in a stove at 60 ºC until constant mass, and (2) freeze-drying. Ball and cryogenic mills were used for grinding. Particle size, sample size and micro sample homogeneity were investigated. All prepared samples showed good homogeneity (He < 10) even for low sample mass, but samples dried in a microwave oven/stove and ground in a ball mill presented the best homogeneity.

This work proposes an analytical procedure for direct determination of calcium, magnesium, manganese and zinc in buffalo milk by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). Samples were diluted with a solution containing 10% (v/v) of water-soluble tertiary amines (CFA-C) at pH 8. For comparison, buffalo milk samples were digested with HNO3 and H2O2. According to a paired t-test, the results obtained in the determination of Ca, Mg, Mn and Zn in digested samples and in 10% (v/v) CFA-C medium were in agreement at a 95% confidence level. The developed procedure is simple, rapid, decrease the possibility of contamination and can be applied for the routine determination of Ca, Mg, Mn and Zn in buffalo milk samples without any difficulty caused by matrix constituents, such as fat content, and particle size distribution in the milk emulsion.

Food industries employ a lot of synthetic dyes in their products. Most of these dyes are very stable face to the conventional treatments. This work studied the use of advanced oxidation process (AOP) as an alternative to the conventional ones to degrade a synthetic food effluent (photolysis and UV/H2O2 in continuous reactor). The more efficient process was the UV/H2O2 and it presented decoloration and degradation energetic efficiency values equal to 30.775 kWh m-3 and 269.909 kWh m-3, respectively. The color reduction was 96.4% and COD decrease was 38.56%.

One of the difficulties reported for the suspension polymerization is control the size and granulometry of beads. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the use of cellulose nanowhiskers and mesoporous silica as stabilizers to reduce the size and the particle distribution. To monitor polymerization process was used FTIR-ATR spectroscopy. The morphology was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. The particle size distribution was characterised using a CILAS granulometer. Thermal stability was studied by thermogravimetric analysis. The results indicated that cellulose nanowhiskers may provide stabilization and increase the thermal stability of the beads in contrast to mesoporous silica.

Chemically modified electrodes have been studied to obtain new and better electrochemical sensors. Transparent conductive oxides, such as fluorine-doped tin-oxide (FTO), shows electrical conductivity comparable to metals and are potential candidates for new sensors. In this work, FTO was modified by gold electrodeposition from chlorine-auric acid solution using cyclic voltammetry (CV) technique. A set of different materials were produced, varying the scan number. Scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were performed for the characterization of electrodes surfaces. From this analysis was possible to observe the resistive, capacitive and difusional aspects from all kind of modified electrodes produced, establishing a relationship between this parameters and the scan number. The electrode with 100 scans of CV presented better characteristics for an electrochemical sensor; it has the lowest global impedance and rising of capacitive behavior (related to electrical double layer formation) at lower frequencies. This electrode was tested for paracetamol and caffeine detection. The results showed a high specificity, decreased oxidation potential (0.58 V and 0.97 Vvs. SCE, for paracetamol and caffeine, respectively) and low detection limits (0.82 and 0.052 µmol L-1).

The phenanthridinone heterocyclic system has attracted considerable attention in recent years due to the diverse array of physical, chemical and pharmacological properties demonstrated by natural and synthetic derivatives. As a consequence there has been considerable development of synthetic methodology for the synthesis of this and related heterocyclic ring systems. The synthetic literature is discussed and is compared with a direct arylation methodology for the intramolecular cyclization of tertiary (2-iodo)benzoylamides to generate the biaryl bond of these compounds. The efficient methodology allowed the synthesis of a number of previously unknown phenanthridinone products. The photoluminescent properties of representative examples were characterized and it is proposed that the previously unknown compound 1s reveals dual fluorescence in a manner similar to the known compound 1r.

Este trabalho propõe um método simples, rápido e confiável para determinação direta e simultânea de Al, As, Fe, Mn e Ni em cachaça por espectrometria de absorção atômica em forno de grafite (GFAAS). A superfície superior da plataforma do tubo de grafite foi revestida com filme à base de tungstênio (WxCyOz).O programa de aquecimento otimizado (temperatura, tempo de rampa, tempo de patamar) foi o seguinte: secagem 1 (100ºC, 5 s, 5 s); secagem 2 (120ºC, 5 s, 5 s); pirólise (1300ºC, 10 s, 30 s); atomização (2200ºC, 1 s, 6 s) e limpeza (2550ºC, 1 s, 3s). Os desvios padrões relativos (n=3) foram < 4,4%, < 0,7%, < 11%, < 6,0%, < 1,2% para os elementos Al, As, Fe, Mn e Ni, respectivamente. A exatidão foi avaliada por meio de testes de adição e recuperação dos analitos em 8 amostras de cachaças comerciais, e as recuperações situaram-se nos seguintes intervalos: 80 - 105% (Al), 81 - 92% (As), 82 - 108% (Fe), 83 - 106% (Mn), 83 - 108% (Ni). Os limites de detecção calculados foram 9,7 µg L-1 Al, 2,3 µg L-1 As, 12 µg L-1 Fe, 14 µg L-1 Mn e 0,8 µg L-1 Ni.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi empregar a análise exploratória de dados, no caso, a técnica de análise de componentes principais (PCA) como ferramenta na avaliação de modificadores químicos na determinação direta e simultânea de Al, As, Cu, Fe, Mn e Ni em álcool etílico combustível por espectrometria de absorção atômica em forno de grafite (GFAAS). Os modificadores químicos avaliados foram: Pd(NO3)2 + Mg(NO3)2; W/Rh; W+ co-injeção de Pd(NO3)2 + Mg(NO3)2 e para cada modificador foram utilizadas trintas amostras de álcool etílico combustível. Como dados experimentais foram utilizados os resultados dos testes de adição e recuperação dos analitos frente aos diferentes modificadores químicos estudados. O emprego da técnica de PCA possibilitou a separação dos tipos de modificadores em função do intervalo de recuperação do analito. Dentre os modificadores avaliados, W+ co-injeção de Pd(NO3)2 + Mg(NO3)2 apresentou-se como a espécie de maior correlação positiva, pois apresenta os maiores teores de recuperação, e sendo assim, foi o escolhido para o desenvolvimento de metodologia para determinação direta e simultânea de Al, As, Cu, Fe, Mn e Ni em álcool etílico combustível por GFAAS.

O presente trabalho teve como objetivo o desenvolvimento de um método analítico simples, rápido e eficiente para a determinação de corticosteróides (cortisona, corticosterona, acetato de hidrocortisona e acetato de dexametasona) em amostras sangüíneas de ratos empregando um sistema isocrático de cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência (CLAE) com detecção ultravioleta. O método envolveu a injeção direta da amostra sangüínea em uma coluna cromatográfica com superfície interna de fase reversa (ISRP-C18), empregando a fase móvel composta por tampão fosfato pH 4,0: acetonitrila (65:35 v/v). A detecção dos analitos foi obtida, através de um detector de ultravioleta de comprimento de onda variável (Varian Modelo 2550) ajustado em 240 nm e um integrador SP 4400 Chromaject (Varian Associates, Inc, Sunnyvale, CA, USA). A extração do analito resultou em valores de recuperação entre 90% e 108%, e coeficiente de variação entre 1,1% a 2,5%. Os limites de detecção e quantificação do método foram de 0,02 e 0,04 µg mL-1, respectivamente. Assim, o método analítico proposto possibilitou a injeção direta (on-line) da amostra sem tratamento prévio apresentando também várias vantagens, tais como: rapidez, exatidão, precisão e especificidade.

Pascal concebe a ordem civil como uma ordem da concupiscência, isto é, uma ordem que é produzida e regulada pela concupiscência. Trata-se aqui de mostrar a novidade dessa idéia relativamente à tradição do pensamento político e a Santo Agostinho, para em seguida apontar o que parece ser a sua condição de possibilidade, a saber, o modo como Pascal concebeu a vontade decaída e, mais propriamente, a concupiscência da carne, à qual se reporta a ordem civil.

Montaigne, no "De l'art de conferer", discute critérios que permitem distinguir os homens segundo suas capacidades (suffisances). A "maneira" de discursar ocupa o centro desta questão e entre suas qualidades se destaca a "ordem", que nos é apresentada, sobretudo, a partir dos desvios da "tolice" (sottise) e "obstinação" (opiniastreté), símbolos do dogmatismo e de uma errônea lide com os saberes que se apoiam na memória. Procura-se mostrar que a ordem se funda na assimilação e penetração do julgamento nas matérias que garantem o nexo necessário para o desenvolvimento adequado da conversação (conference).
