The Chromobacterium violaceum is a β-proteobacterium Gram-negative widely found in tropical and subtropical regions, whose genome was sequenced in 2003 showing great metabolic versatility and biotechnological and pharmaceutical potential. Given the large number of ORFs related to iron metabolism described in the genome of C. violaceum, the importance of this metal for various biological processes and due to lack of data about the consequences of excess of iron in free-living organisms, it is important to study the response mechanism of this bacterium in a culture filled with iron. Previous work showed that C. violaceum is resistant to high concentrations of this metal, but has not yet been described the mechanism which is used to this survival. Thus, to elucidate the response of C. violaceum cultured in high concentrations of iron and expecting to obtain candidate genes for use in bioremediation processes, this study used a shotgun proteomics approach and systems biology to assess the response of C. violaceum grown in the presence and absence of 9 mM of iron. The analysis identified 531 proteins, being 71 exclusively expressed by the bacteria grown in the presence of the metal and 100 just in the control condition. The increase in expression of proteins related to the TCA cycle possibly represents a metabolic reprogramming of the bacteria caused by high concentration of iron in the medium. Moreover, we observed an increase in the activity assay of superoxide dismutase and catalase as well as in Total Antioxidant Activity assay, suggesting that the metal is inducing oxidative stress in C. violaceum that increases the levels of violacein and antioxidant enzymes to better adapt to the emerging conditions. Are also part of the adaptive response changes in expression of proteins related to transport, including iron, as well as an increased expression of proteins related to chemotaxis response, which would lead the bacteria to change the direction of its movement away from the metal. Systems Biology results, also suggest a metabolic reprogramming with mechanisms coordinated by bottleneck proteins involved in transcription (GreA), energy metabolism (Rpe and TpiA) and methylation (AhcY)

The Raman spectrum of lithium hydrazinium sulphate has been recorded both in the single crystal form and in aqueous solutions. The crystal exhibits thirty-eight Raman lines having the frequency shifts 52, 70, 104, 146, 174, 220, 260, 302, 350, 454, 470, 610, 630, 715, 977, 1094, 1115, 1132, 1177, 1191, 1260, 1444, 1493, 1577, 1630, 1670, 2205, 2484, 2553, 2655, 2734, 2848, 2894, 2939, 3028, 3132, 3290 and 3330 cm.−1 The aqueous solution gave rise to six Raman lines at 452, 980, 1050–1200, 1260, 1425 and 1570 cm.−1 apart from a maximum at 180 cm.−1 in the ‘wing’ accompanying the Rayleigh line. The observed Raman lines have been assigned as arising from the vibrations of the SO4 ion, N2H5+ ion, Li-O4 group, hydrogen bond and the lattice. The influence of the hydrogen bond on the N-H stretching vibrations has been pointed out. The various features of the observed spectrum strongly support the hypothesis that the NH3 group in the crystal is rotating around the N-N axis at room temperature.

A ferroelectriclike hysteresis loop was obtained at room temperature for CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) ceramic. The remnant polarization and coercive field for 1100 °C/5 h sintered CaCu3Ti4O12 ceramics were 0.063 μC/cm2 and 195 V/cm, respectively. Remnant polarization increased while the coercive field decreased with increase in sintering temperature/duration, implying that these were microstructural dependent. The observation of the hysteresis loop for CCTO ceramic was corroborated by its pyroelectric behavior, and the pyroelectric current at room temperature was −0.0028 nA. These findings were attributed to the presence of mixed-valent Ti ions, apart from off center displacement of Ti ions in TiO6 octahedra.

The paper presents an analysis of ferro-oscillations in capacitor voltage transformers and series-compensated e.h.v. lines. The dual-input describing function is adopted to show the regions of existence and the influence of system parameters on such oscillations. A complete analytical method suitable for digital computation has been developed for determining the amplitudes of these oscillations.

Neste trabalho estudou-se a complexação do poli(acrilato de sódio), PAS, com aminpentacianoferrato de sódio,APCF. As reações de complexação ocorreram imediatamente com a formação de uma coloração amarela com total solubilização do polímero na solução 0,032 M molar do complexo. As soluções mostraram-se estáveis por 48 h e após esse período observou-se alterações na natureza do complexo polimérico com a formação de precipitado. O UV foi usado como ferramenta de caracterização do complexo. O máximo de absorção obtido após dissolução imediata foi de 405 nm com desvio para o azul (398 nm) e um pequeno efeito hipercrômico. As amostras mantidas à temperatura ambiente por mais de 48 h deram origem a precipitados, que como a solução, absorveram com máximo de 364, 389 e 398 nm. O Complexo PAS-APCF foi também caracterizado através de FTIR por ATR e apresentou pequenas variações no espectro do material de partida (PAS). Um incremento na intensidade da deformação axial assimétrica do grupo carboxilato (1651 cm-1) e a presença do estiramento em 2055 cm-1 do grupo cianeto, diferentemente do APCF (2048 cm-1), confirmaram a formação do complexo PAS-APCF. As freqüências de absorção observadas para o complexo foram compatíveis com a presença de estruturas mono e bidentadas de complexação. As análises de TGA e DSC também foram utilizadas para a caracterização das estruturas. O estudo modelo envolvendo a complexação de sais sódicos de diácidos orgânicos de diferentes tamanhos de cadeia (oxalato, malonato, succinato, glutarato e adipato), diferentemente do PAS, promoveu um desvio para o vermelho na frequência máxima de absorção junto de um pequeno efeito hipercrômico (421 nm). Esta variação pode também ser observada quando do emprego de acetato de sódio, indicando, provavelmente, apenas a formação de estruturas monodentadas
