Comment on R. Woodroffe et al. Perspective in Ecology "To Fence or Not to Fence" (4 April 2014, Science, 344: 46-48)

Fences must be used with care in biodiversity conservation to avoid unintended consequences.

Mass spectrometry parameters optimization for the 46 multiclass pesticides determination in strawberries with gas chromatography ion-trap tandem mass spectrometry

Multiclass analysis method was optimized in order to analyze pesticides traces by gas chromatography with ion-trap and tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS). The influence of some analytical parameters on pesticide signal response was explored. Five ion trap mass spectrometry (IT-MS) operating parameters, including isolation time (IT), excitation voltage (EV), excitation time (ET),maximum excitation energy or “q” value (q), and isolationmass window (IMW) were numerically tested in order to maximize the instrument analytical signal response. For this, multiple linear regression was used in data analysis to evaluate the influence of the five parameters on the analytical response in the ion trap mass spectrometer and to predict its response. The assessment of the five parameters based on the regression equations substantially increased the sensitivity of IT-MS/MS in the MS/MS mode. The results obtained show that for most of the pesticides, these parameters have a strong influence on both signal response and detection limit.Using the optimized method, a multiclass pesticide analysis was performed for 46 pesticides in a strawberry matrix. Levels higher than the limit established for strawberries by the European Union were found in some samples.

Immunodiagnosis of chronic Chagas' disease using the Tc 46 and Tc 58 antigens

The polypeptides of 46 and 58kDa were recognized in different T. cruzi strains (Y, WSL and Colombiana) by serum of all chagasic patients studied. These polypeptides were isolated from T. cruzi Y strain and used in ELISA. The sensitivity and specificity were 97.6% [CI 95%: 86-100%] and 100% [CI 95%: 89.3-100%], respectively when Tc 46 was used. When Tc 58 was used the sensitivity and specificity were 100% [CI 95%: 89.6-100%] and 90.2% [CI 95%: 75.9-96.8%], respectively.

Variabilidade de Fusarium oxysporum F. lycopersici (Wr) Sny & Hans em São Paulo

A Murcha de Fusarium em tomateiro não está sendo eficientemente controlada no Estado de São Paulo, devido a falta de variedades resistentes, adequadas ao mercado. Como na produção destas, variedades resistentes é necessário um estudo sôbre a variabilidade do fango quanto a raças fisiológicas os autores pesquisaram 48 linhagens de Fusarium coletados em todo o Estado de São Paulo e através de testes em variedades diferenciais Bonny Best., Santa Cruz (Kobayashi) e S-34 em condições de casa de vegetação com contrôle parcial de temperatura e inoculaçôes artificiais. Concluiram que das 48 linhagens estudadas uma desta apresentava reação de raça 2 as demais 47 a da raça 1 sendo possível reparar as linhagens pelo gráu de patogenicidade.
